*About CR's Bay Area organizing:*

CR-Oakland continues our work in coalitions to *Stop Urban Shield* in
Alameda County and advance *alternatives to jail construction in San
Francisco (SF)*.

Last week, over 40 community members rallied outside the Alameda Board of
Supervisors then went inside to provide testimony against funding for the
militarization of policing - alongside powerful letters
