This brief video shows the beginning of a campaign to bail out schools and services, instead of banks, and to stop home foreclosures. The Oakland Education Association and community allies rallied at three bank branches on January 13, 2011, on the eve of the Martin Luther King, Jr., weekend. We chose this time, because King pointed out that in order to address racism and poverty, there must be "a radical redistribution of political and economic power." Similarly, we will not achieve quality education for all without, as King said, taking on the "captains of industry." oaklandea.org
