Featured song: Change the World by Too Short (feat. B-Rad) Town Business Network (TBN) has assembled a group of artists from the San Francisco Bay Area “to change the face of American
politics.” The hip-hop album, “Wake Yo’ Game Up!” promotes social change and empowerment through community awareness and the act of voting. Artists are free to explore the
theme of “Voting and Social Change” with two limitations: songs must be non-partisan and must not contain curse words. All artists agreed to donate their time and creative talents to this
project. The album has been distributed to a variety of venues in the East Bay, such as high schools, colleges, shopping centers, barbershops, and community events. Through a generous in-kind
donation 5,000 copies of the album have been provided to TBN for distribution. These copies have been distributed at no charge to prospective voters throughout the East Bay. Songs are available to
download for free at http://wakeyogameup.org

Proposition 6 will be on the November 2008 ballot. If passed, the initiative would increase funding by nearly sixty-one percent for various law enforcement activities including gang intervention,
detention, probation, narcotics enforcement, education, prevention and rehabilitation. The proposition will require a minimum of $965,000,000 each year to be allocated from the state general fund for
police, sheriffs, district attorneys, adult probation, jails and juvenile probation facilities. Opponents believe Proposition 6 will lock-in taxpayer money to fund failed, "get-tough" policies and
programs. The initiative earmarks state general fund dollars which would mean less money for education, senior services, and heath care. Proposition 6 will drain communities of much-needed resources
and will make neighborhoods and streets less safe. Proponents believe Proposition 6 is an anti-gang and crime reduction measure that will increase public safety and bring greater efficiency and
accountability to programs and agencies that spend taxpayer money. Funding will be ensured for local police, sheriff, district attorneys and probation officers while creating tougher punishment for
violent and gang crimes. To learn more about Proposition 6 go to: http://www.smartvoter.org/2008/11/04/ca/state/prop/6/ Guest Speakers: Jakada Imani Executive Director of the Ella Baker Center

Oakland Youth Movement is a group of youth trying to get their voices heard. Their purpose has been to get opinions from Oakland youth about the challenges in their communities and obtain their input
about what resources are most needed to address these issues. The City and County Neighborhood Initiative brought together several Oakland youth in 2007 to develop and conduct youth surveys in two
neighborhoods. The survey explores what youth think about their neighborhoods, including: what they like, what they want to change, what kinds of resources they need, and how they feel about health
and violence in their community. The young people worked with staff from the Alameda County Public Health Department’s Community Assessment, Planning and Education/Evaluation Unit and conducted
200 youth surveys. After a few months of working together, the youth group named themselves the Oakland Youth Movement because they wanted to “become a movement to fight for change in our
communities.” Guest Speakers: LaToya Carroll, a native Oaklander and was born in West Oakland. She attended Hoover Elementary, and McClymonds High School, and graduated from Berkeley High
School in 2006. Nakia Dillard, a native Oaklander and was born in West Oakland. She attended Hoover Elementary and graduated from McClymonds High School in 2005. Nakia is in her second year at Laney
College.
