Good morning, Oakland.

On Saturday, March 28, 20,000 Oakland residents marched from City Hall to Lake Merritt for the No Kings rally and teach-in.

Organizers said the event honored the city’s history of community activism and encouraged residents to join future local actions.

About 100 friends and family gathered Sunday evening at a candlelight vigil calling for the return of Amy Hillyard (missing since Wednesday afternoon), a local coffee shop owner.

TSA employees at Oakland airport have worked nearly six weeks without pay, and morale remains low as a government directive promises that they will receive back pay on Monday.

California lawmakers are proposing Assembly Bill 2244 to require a state-certified label on grocery food packaging that shows if a product is not ultra-processed so shoppers can choose healthier foods.

The proposal builds on last year’s law banning ultra-processed foods from K-12 lunches—if passed, experts expect companies to change recipes.

Oakland's sports calendar offers local fans events in April including soccer matches, ultimate frisbee games, football contests and baseball rivalries.

Community activities like watch parties, volunteer cleanups and hockey scrimmages continue the excitement across venues from the Coliseum to Fremont High School.
