About

The historically Black neighborhood of West Oakland is changing, like much of California's Bay Area--but longtime local residents are working on a project to immortalize their neighborhood's legacy: the birthplace of the Black Panther Party. A grassroots museum and mural honors the vital contributions of the oft-overlooked women of the Black Panthers. Ivette Feliciano reports.
