| Collapse all
- I am not a career politician! I'm a social worker with over a decade of experience in social services coupled with my legislative experience Chair of the Oakland Housing & Rent Board stepping in to this political space because I see a need. A need to expand the representation we have at every level of our government. Expand to more BIPOC faces, more Queer voices, and more diverse disciplines.
- I'm bring to this race an alternative. An alternative to the same political blueprint we have been used for decade after decade; a blueprint that continues to give us elected officials all too eager to prioritize the needs of corporations and special interests over the needs of the people. My priorities are the people of the district, and those across this country. I am unwavering in my commitment to always prioritize the needs of the people over those of special interests, corporations even when that goes against the interest of establishment democrats and party leadership.
- As a queer, black man watching the legislative attacks on my communities is beyond disheartening. We must ensure that whenever laws are being drafted we have BIPOC voices, and Queer voices at the table speaking to our experiences. We MUST take up space in the streets, but also at every level of our government. Nothing about us without us!
