Local rap group Hieroglyphics founded the festival (tickets cost $19.93, a nod to Souls of Mischief’s “‘93 Til Infinity”), and it reliably boasts an impressive lineup of golden-age headliners and emerging locals. Last year featured artists including The Roots’ Black Thought, Mannie Fresh, Guapdad4000, DJ Fresh and Traxamillion, and the festival spread across several blocks in the Jack London District of Oakland. Tickets generally sell out long before the lineup is confirmed. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11316316\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/02/JW.MAIN_-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"John Waters at Burger Boogaloo 2015.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11316316\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/02/JW.MAIN_-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/02/JW.MAIN_-400x225.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/02/JW.MAIN_-768x432.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/02/JW.MAIN_.jpg 913w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">John Waters at Burger Boogaloo 2015. \u003ccite>(Wild About You Photography)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Burger Boogaloo\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>July 6—7\u003cbr>\nMosswood Park, Oakland\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://burgerboogaloo.com/\">More Information\u003c/a>\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the first weekend of July, the Burger Boogaloo turns a disused concrete amphitheater in the corner of Mosswood Park into a riot of color of sound.

Its tenth annual edition will draw thousands to Oakland’s Temescal district for first-wave punk acts such as the Dead Boys, newer groups Sheer Mag and Shannon & the Clams and headliner the Jesus & Mary Chain. \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13832897\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"DJ Twelvz spins at Lake Merrit for "BBQ'n While Black," a celebration of African-American culture sparked by a white woman's widely lampooned police complaint.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13832897\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/703A5122-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">DJ Twelvz spins at Lake Merrit for “BBQ’n While Black,” a celebration of African-American culture sparked by a white woman’s widely lampooned police complaint.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>BBQin’ While Black at Lake Merritt\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>July 21\u003cbr>\nLake Merritt, Oakland\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"https://www.gofundme.com/f/BBQnWhileBlack\">More information\u003c/a>\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One afternoon last April, a white woman harassed two black men for grilling at Lake Merritt, and proceeded to call the Oakland Police Department.

Journalist Pendarvis Harshaw takes us to galleries painted on the sides of liquor stores in West Oakland. We'll dance in warehouses in the Bayview, make smoothies with kids in South Berkeley, and listen to classical music in a 1984 Cutlass Supreme in Richmond. Every week, Pen talks to movers and shakers about how the Bay Area shapes what they create, and how they shape the place we call home.","imageSrc":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Rightnowish-Podcast-Tile-500x500-1.jpg","imageAlt":"KQED Rightnowish with Pendarvis Harshaw","officialWebsiteLink":"/podcasts/rightnowish","meta":{"site":"arts","source":"kqed","order":"5"},"link":"/podcasts/rightnowish","subscribe":{"npr":"https://www.npr.org/podcasts/721590300/rightnowish","rss":"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/programs/rightnowish/feed/podcast","apple":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rightnowish/id1482187648","stitcher":"https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/kqed/rightnowish","google":"https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vS1FJTkMxMjU5MTY3NDc4","spotify":"https://open.spotify.com/show/7kEJuafTzTVan7B78ttz1I"}},"jerrybrown":{"id":"jerrybrown","title":"The Political Mind of Jerry Brown","tagline":"Lessons from a lifetime in politics","info":"The Political Mind of Jerry Brown brings listeners the wisdom of the former Governor, Mayor, and presidential candidate.
