HUB Oakland  1423 Broadway, Oakland FREE Produced and curated by HUB Oakland, Betti Ono and Kin Folkz (Spectrum/Sankofa Events) and hosted by HUB co-founder Ashara Ekundayo. On Thursday May 2, 2013, the FBI announced that it was increasing its bounty for the capture of Assata Shakur (born JoAnne Deborah Byron) from 1 million to 2 million dollars. The agency also included Assata on the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorist list, the first time that a woman has ever appeared on the list. Forty years earlier, a shootout occurred on the New Jersey Turnpike, which left Assata wounded, a state trooper, Werner Foerster, and her companion, Zayd Shakur, dead. HUB Oakland will be live streaming the event. If you can't make it down, stay tuned for a link. Monday, June 10, 6pm "Occupy Love"-The Movie, Oakland Premier The New Parkway 474 24th st., Oakland $10 Tickets  HUB Oakland and Fierce Love Films present the community screening of Occupy Love--which explores the growing realization that the dominant system of power is failing to provide us with health, happiness or meaning. The film connects the dots in this era of rapidly evolving social change, featuring captivating insider scenes from the Egyptian Revolution, the Indignado uprising in Spain,  Occupy Wall Street in New York, Indigenous activists at the Alberta Tar Sands, the climate justice movement, and beyond. Woven throughout the action oriented backbone of the film is a deep exploration of public love, and compelling stories of an emerging new paradigm.  It features some of the world’s key visionaries on alternative systems of economics, sustainability, and empathy, including Naomi Klein, Bill McKibben, Jeremy Rifkin, bell hooks and Charles Eisenstein.
