West Oakland Mural Project Went Live!
Muralists, Block Party, Food Give Away and Live Stream Program

On Valentines Day, 2021 over 600 folks logged on to witness the first moments of The Mural being created in West Oakland, Ca. This public art installation honors the #SayHerName Movement and The Women of The Black Panther Party (WBPP). Let’s say the names of revolutionaries and activists.
When complete the Mural will include more than 300 names, the most comprehensive collection of names celebrating the Women in the BPP.
It honors the legacy of women warriors whose only goal was to protect and better the lives of the poor and oppressed.

During the live stream, The West Oakland Mural Project with the leadership of East Oakland Collective and support from Gold Beams,
gave away over 275 bags of groceries in honor of the People’s Free Food Program. And every bag had a whole chicken.

Donations poured in from Oaklanders and beyond and we all got to see just how sexy generosity really is.
