Our Mission:

Why does the Pizza Hut on Fruitvale Avenue (Oakland) have bulletproof glass? Why are there so many liquor stores in Oakland? Why are people afraid of Oakland? Is it really better in other neighborhoods, like Berkeley and San Francisco? What do people in other Bay Area neighborhoods think of Oakland? If you’ve ever wondered about these questions, this is the blog for you!

From May 19th to June 6th 2008, our group of students will visit, explore, and analyze different neighborhoods throughout the Bay area, and produce our own stories, pictures, videos, and audio clips to answer these questions, AND YOURS! Please submit your questions below, and check back here later for the answers.
