Clearly my head has been in the sand... I didn't even realize my wonderful former student Rowena Brown @Liveundefined is running for Oakland City Councilmember at large. I am so excited -- she will be an amazing leader for Oakland.
Rowena Brown@Liveundefined

BIG NEWS! 🚨 I am honored and grateful to be endorsed by the Alameda County Democratic Party! 🎉 We are stronger together and please know I am 100% committed to fighting for a future for Oaklanders that is more equitable and just for all! Join the movement for change!  #Row4Oak
