Jason Anderson was a 2014 nonpartisan candidate for mayor of Oakland, California.
2014
In an interview with the San Francisco Bay View on March 15, 2014, Anderson identified the following issues as key components of his 2014 platform:[1]
Sustainability
- Excerpt: "Sustainable energy education – a solar, wind etc. – training on how to harness the energy of the largest thermal nuclear generator, the sun, this will be highly valuable in crisis situations and also in job creation. The application of sustainability and, in a functional manner, teaching the fundamentals of electricity and basic building, such as woodworking, can also be used as community building tools."
PTSD eduction
- Excerpt: "Addressing PTSD within the community and law enforcement and beginning to create common ground to start building a better relationship between the OPD and the Oakland community, where fear on both sides puts everyone’s lives in danger."
War on drugs
- Excerpt: "Addressing the failed “war on drugs” and its effects and ways to overcome them as a community. The prison industrial complex has profited too long off of the labor of young men and women of color and it is time we as a community address this and create new plans to counteract the modern slave trade that involves the youth of Oakland directly."
