Day of Action in Sacramento
On Wednesday, October 25, 2023, #OaklandUndivided joined over 35 digital equity advocates from the California Alliance for Digital Equity, and Digital Equity Los Angeles to host a demonstration to protest the State’s looming decision to divert billions of dollars in broadband infrastructure funding intended for the least connected communities to some of the wealthiest neighborhoods in California. Parents, students, and partners from numerous CBOs in Oakland joined us, including Homies Empowerment, the Kapor Center and EveryoneOn. Many gave public comment to highlight the need for broadband investments in Oakland.
