Oaksterdam Raid - Andrew DeAngelo & the OPD Riot Line
On Monday, April 2, 2012, agents from the DEA, IRS, and U.S. Marshals Service raided Oaksterdam University and several other businesses associated with Oakland cannabis activist Richard Lee. The Oakland Police Department was not notified in advance of the raids and did not participate in them, but did provide crowd control as the morning progressed and increasing numbers of angry locals opposed to the raid arrived at 19th and Broadway.
In this clip, Andrew DeAngelo of Harborside Health Center addresses the OPD riot line, imploring them to side with the City of Oakland and not to help the Feds.

Apologies for the way the video freezes at times; downtown Oakland is something of a concrete canyon and signal quality can be irregular. We’re working toward upgrading our equipment.
