"content": "\u003cp>When 27-year-old artist Antonio Ramos was shot and killed last fall while painting a mural under a highway overpass in West Oakland, the story of his death captured national and international headlines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But very little was reported about Ramos, the self-taught artist whose passion for social justice and illustrating the stories of indigenous people was recognized by those who knew him best. (Ramos himself had roots in Mexico and in Puerto Rico’s Taíno tribe.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”dXpFdXAocPZRDSePgYFgCUcoogxzPXfm”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I walked through the doors of \u003ca href=\"http://www.ahc-oakland.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Attitudinal Healing Connection \u003c/a>(AHC) one week after the shooting. AHC has worked in West Oakland for more than 25 years and leads the \u003ca href=\"http://www.ahc-oakland.org/oakland-mural-project\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Oakland Super Heroes Mural Project\u003c/a>, an effort to transform six blighted underpasses into large-scale murals designed by local youth.\u003cb> \u003c/b>Ramos was helping paint one of them when he was gunned down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AHC co-founder Aeeshah Clottey greeted me with warm eyes, open arms, but also had words that stung me for their truth. “Where have you been? We’ve been trying to get media coverage of our efforts for decades. Now with blood in the streets, you’re here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then she invited me to sit down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve called Oakland home for most of my adult life, and as a documentary filmmaker who has made films about anti-violence efforts in the Bay Area and as far away as Russia, words like these are important to hear. They cut to the heart of what many people at AHC and throughout Oakland are still feeling about this tragedy nine months later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Within hours of the shooting, reports of yet another killing in Oakland dominated the news cycle. That Ramos died working on a mural about peace and non-violence was not lost on the press. Speculation about the circumstances leading up to the murder abounded. Did the subject matter in the mural provoke the violence? Was the crime an attempted robbery? Next to none of these explanations resonated with the artists working with Ramos that fateful morning, when an armed man took their friend’s life. The truth of their feelings were eclipsed by reports of his violent death and tired narratives of crime-ridden Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In a situation that was just so senseless, there were news reports connecting what happened to Antonio with how gentrification isn’t making Oakland better,” AHC Executive Director Amana Harris told me. “As if gentrification is what it takes to make a city better. That’s the kind of narrow-mindedness we’re fighting against. We have to be looking at core issues for our people, ways to build better resiliency with our community members.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Harris, 44, art like the murals project is key to building healthy, resilient communities. The Oakland native has been bringing art classes to the city’s under-resourced schools for decades through AHC’s ArtEsteem program and Self as Superhero curriculum, which encourages students to re-envision themselves as superheroes improving their communities. West Oakland Middle School Students inspired the images Ramos was helping to create when he died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ramos’ name is back in the news again with \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbaytimes.com/breaking-news/ci_29983979/oakland-defendant-enters-plea-muralist-slaying\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">developments in the criminal case\u003c/a> and with a lawsuit filed by his family against the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, owners of the stolen firearm reportedly used in the shooting. Meanwhile, AHC has started up work on a fourth Oakland Super Heroes Mural with students at Hoover Elementary. It will be painted across the street from the wall where Ramos was killed. But that work has disappeared from the public’s eye.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I began to capture the completion of the mural last fall in the aftermath of Ramos’ death, I didn’t know where my storytelling would lead. But I knew I wanted to tell a different story than I was seeing displayed in the media, one that better represented Ramos, Oakland, and the role art plays in empowering youth and making our communities stronger. I hope this video offers a glimpse of the creativity and courage, grace and forgiveness that is reflected not only in the life of Antonio Ramos, but in the lives of the artists, friends and family members who carry his spirit forward.\u003c/p>\n\n",

AHC has worked in West Oakland for more than 25 years and leads the \u003ca href=\"http://www.ahc-oakland.org/oakland-mural-project\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Oakland Super Heroes Mural Project\u003c/a>, an effort to transform six blighted underpasses into large-scale murals designed by local youth.\u003cb> \u003c/b>Ramos was helping paint one of them when he was gunned down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>AHC co-founder Aeeshah Clottey greeted me with warm eyes, open arms, but also had words that stung me for their truth. “Where have you been?

They cut to the heart of what many people at AHC and throughout Oakland are still feeling about this tragedy nine months later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Within hours of the shooting, reports of yet another killing in Oakland dominated the news cycle. That Ramos died working on a mural about peace and non-violence was not lost on the press. Speculation about the circumstances leading up to the murder abounded. Did the subject matter in the mural provoke the violence? Was the crime an attempted robbery? Next to none of these explanations resonated with the artists working with Ramos that fateful morning, when an armed man took their friend’s life. The truth of their feelings were eclipsed by reports of his violent death and tired narratives of crime-ridden Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In a situation that was just so senseless, there were news reports connecting what happened to Antonio with how gentrification isn’t making Oakland better,” AHC Executive Director Amana Harris told me. “As if gentrification is what it takes to make a city better. That’s the kind of narrow-mindedness we’re fighting against. We have to be looking at core issues for our people, ways to build better resiliency with our community members.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Harris, 44, art like the murals project is key to building healthy, resilient communities. The Oakland native has been bringing art classes to the city’s under-resourced schools for decades through AHC’s ArtEsteem program and Self as Superhero curriculum, which encourages students to re-envision themselves as superheroes improving their communities. West Oakland Middle School Students inspired the images Ramos was helping to create when he died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ramos’ name is back in the news again with \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbaytimes.com/breaking-news/ci_29983979/oakland-defendant-enters-plea-muralist-slaying\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">developments in the criminal case\u003c/a> and with a lawsuit filed by his family against the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, owners of the stolen firearm reportedly used in the shooting. Meanwhile, AHC has started up work on a fourth Oakland Super Heroes Mural with students at Hoover Elementary. It will be painted across the street from the wall where Ramos was killed. But that work has disappeared from the public’s eye.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When I began to capture the completion of the mural last fall in the aftermath of Ramos’ death, I didn’t know where my storytelling would lead. But I knew I wanted to tell a different story than I was seeing displayed in the media, one that better represented Ramos, Oakland, and the role art plays in empowering youth and making our communities stronger. I hope this video offers a glimpse of the creativity and courage, grace and forgiveness that is reflected not only in the life of Antonio Ramos, but in the lives of the artists, friends and family members who carry his spirit forward.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Some members of the crowd chained themselves to the divider separating the council dais from the audience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[soundcloud url=\"https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/252256936\" params=\"color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" iframe=\"true\" /]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But instead of shutting down the meeting, the protest merely led the City Council to move its session to a mayoral conference room, where discussion continued before the media and city staffers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The property has become a battleground for Oakland residents who worry that the high cost of housing is forcing residents out and that local politicians are choosing development over its own residents -- an idea disputed by many council members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the end, the council's vote to pursue a 360-unit development that will include 108 affordable apartments was a compromise -- an attempt to meet community demands for affordable housing while clearing the way for a substantial new market-rate development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/RadioDevin/status/709942505664434176\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last May, the City Council was planning to grant approval of a plan to sell the East 12th Street parcel to developer UrbanCore for a tower of market-rate apartments. That vote was stopped by protesters who took over the council chamber.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following that meeting, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayexpress.com/SevenDays/archives/2015/07/06/breaking-news-oakland-city-attorney-said-luxury-tower-deal-is-illegal\">East Bay Express\u003c/a> reported that the city attorney was questioning whether the deal was legal under the state Surplus Lands Act, which requires local government to give affordable housing developers the first crack at public parcels that are up for sale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following that disclosure, the city retracted the UrbanCore deal and opened up the bidding to new proposals that would include at least 25 percent of below-market-rate housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As outlined in a report from the city administrators office (\u003ca href=\"#oaklandreport\">embedded below\u003c/a>), three main proposals came out of that process:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>A 132-unit development by Satellite Affordable Housing Associates, or SAHA. All units in the proposed seven-story building would be below market rate, priced for those earning between 30 percent and 100 percent of the area median income.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A 364-unit development from Bridge Housing and AGI Avant. The 27-story tower would include 104 below-market-rate units for those earning between 30 and 120 percent of the area median income.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A 360-unit, two-building project from UrbanCore and the East Bay Asian Local Development Corp., or EBALDC. The development would include a 26-story tower and an eight-story midrise; 90 of the development's 108 below-market-rate units would be located in the smaller building.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The size and the affordability of the project were not the only criteria city officials considered as they weighed the proposals. Also crucial was how much each developer would pay the city up front for the right to develop the East 12th Street parcel and how much of a subsidy they'd be seeking for developing the below-market rate units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City staff rated the UrbanCore/EBALDC proposal highest, citing the developer's offer of a high up-front payment of $4.7 million and low subsidy requirement -- $400,000. The SAHA plan, developed after a series of community meeting and called the \"\u003ca href=\"http://proposal.e12thoakland.org/\" target=\"_blank\">People's Proposal\u003c/a>,\" offered the city $1 million to develop the property and would require $4.1 in subsidies for its below-market-rate units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the downside, staff noted that UrbanCore and EBALDC are proposing an outright purchase of the East 12th parcel. That would go against a City Council policy to lease rather than sell city land. The staff recommended making an exception to the city policy to allow the UrbanCore development to go forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10897324\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-10897324\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Oakland City Council members discuss the 12th Street parcel.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oakland City Council members discuss the 12th Street parcel. \u003ccite>(Devin Katayama/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>During their discussion of the issue Tuesday night, council members expressed strong support for the UrbanCore proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We cannot build a wall around Oakland,\" said Councilman Abel Guillen, representing the district that includes the East 12th Street parcel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guillen said despite fears that market-rate development at the site will fuel gentrification in the Eastlake neighborhood, the UrbanCore development includes housing for a wide range of incomes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>North Oakland Councilman Dan Kalb, acknowledging the addition of affordable housing to all the proposals, said moving forward with any one of the three would allow him to sleep soundly,\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's not perfect, but it's good,\" says Kalb.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Council President Lynette Gibson McElhaney, who represents West Oakland, joined the meeting by teleconference and said the proposal will preserve the neighborhood's mix of higher- and lower-income households.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We see that this project will continue in the name of diversity,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Councilmember Annie Campbell Washington, whose district stretches from the edge of the Fruitvale through the Oakland Hills, said the UrbanCore plan combines a good range of affordability and high density -- a plus for a site near public transit such as the Lake Merritt BART Station.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is clearly the deal that makes sense for the city,\" says Campbell Washington.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The only dissenting voice came from Fruitvale Councilman Noel Gallo, who said he's concerned that the city is still in violation of the state Surplus Lands Act and he believes the city has an obligation to provide as many affordable housing units as it can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10897325\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-10897325\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Protesters wait outside the city conference room where the council voted 6-1 in favor of a developer group that many residents oppose. \" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Protesters wait outside the city conference room where the council voted 6-1 in favor of a developer group that many residents oppose. \u003ccite>(Devin Katayama/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"I still believe that any public land that's owned by the city, that's owned by the citizens should remain with the public,\" Gallo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The council voted 6-1 -- with Gallo the lone \"no\" vote -- to enter into a six-month exclusive negotiating period with UrbanCore/EBALDC.

That vote was stopped by protesters who took over the council chamber.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following that meeting, the \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayexpress.com/SevenDays/archives/2015/07/06/breaking-news-oakland-city-attorney-said-luxury-tower-deal-is-illegal\">East Bay Express\u003c/a> reported that the city attorney was questioning whether the deal was legal under the state Surplus Lands Act, which requires local government to give affordable housing developers the first crack at public parcels that are up for sale.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Following that disclosure, the city retracted the UrbanCore deal and opened up the bidding to new proposals that would include at least 25 percent of below-market-rate housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As outlined in a report from the city administrators office (\u003ca href=\"#oaklandreport\">embedded below\u003c/a>), three main proposals came out of that process:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>A 132-unit development by Satellite Affordable Housing Associates, or SAHA. All units in the proposed seven-story building would be below market rate, priced for those earning between 30 percent and 100 percent of the area median income.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A 364-unit development from Bridge Housing and AGI Avant. The 27-story tower would include 104 below-market-rate units for those earning between 30 and 120 percent of the area median income.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>A 360-unit, two-building project from UrbanCore and the East Bay Asian Local Development Corp., or EBALDC. The development would include a 26-story tower and an eight-story midrise; 90 of the development's 108 below-market-rate units would be located in the smaller building.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>The size and the affordability of the project were not the only criteria city officials considered as they weighed the proposals. Also crucial was how much each developer would pay the city up front for the right to develop the East 12th Street parcel and how much of a subsidy they'd be seeking for developing the below-market rate units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City staff rated the UrbanCore/EBALDC proposal highest, citing the developer's offer of a high up-front payment of $4.7 million and low subsidy requirement -- $400,000. The SAHA plan, developed after a series of community meeting and called the \"\u003ca href=\"http://proposal.e12thoakland.org/\" target=\"_blank\">People's Proposal\u003c/a>,\" offered the city $1 million to develop the property and would require $4.1 in subsidies for its below-market-rate units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the downside, staff noted that UrbanCore and EBALDC are proposing an outright purchase of the East 12th parcel. That would go against a City Council policy to lease rather than sell city land. The staff recommended making an exception to the city policy to allow the UrbanCore development to go forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10897324\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-10897324\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Oakland City Council members discuss the 12th Street parcel.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1516-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oakland City Council members discuss the 12th Street parcel. \u003ccite>(Devin Katayama/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>During their discussion of the issue Tuesday night, council members expressed strong support for the UrbanCore proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We cannot build a wall around Oakland,\" said Councilman Abel Guillen, representing the district that includes the East 12th Street parcel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Guillen said despite fears that market-rate development at the site will fuel gentrification in the Eastlake neighborhood, the UrbanCore development includes housing for a wide range of incomes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>North Oakland Councilman Dan Kalb, acknowledging the addition of affordable housing to all the proposals, said moving forward with any one of the three would allow him to sleep soundly,\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's not perfect, but it's good,\" says Kalb.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Council President Lynette Gibson McElhaney, who represents West Oakland, joined the meeting by teleconference and said the proposal will preserve the neighborhood's mix of higher- and lower-income households.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We see that this project will continue in the name of diversity,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Councilmember Annie Campbell Washington, whose district stretches from the edge of the Fruitvale through the Oakland Hills, said the UrbanCore plan combines a good range of affordability and high density -- a plus for a site near public transit such as the Lake Merritt BART Station.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is clearly the deal that makes sense for the city,\" says Campbell Washington.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The only dissenting voice came from Fruitvale Councilman Noel Gallo, who said he's concerned that the city is still in violation of the state Surplus Lands Act and he believes the city has an obligation to provide as many affordable housing units as it can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10897325\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-10897325\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Protesters wait outside the city conference room where the council voted 6-1 in favor of a developer group that many residents oppose. \" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-400x300.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/03/IMG_1518-960x720.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Protesters wait outside the city conference room where the council voted 6-1 in favor of a developer group that many residents oppose. \u003ccite>(Devin Katayama/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"I still believe that any public land that's owned by the city, that's owned by the citizens should remain with the public,\" Gallo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The council voted 6-1 -- with Gallo the lone \"no\" vote -- to enter into a six-month exclusive negotiating period with UrbanCore/EBALDC.
