Join us virtually on October 7 at 4pm PDT for Courageous Conversations: An intergenerational discussion about racial justice and cross-cultural solidarity in our community. This must-attend event is presented by YR Media with generous collaboration and support from Hella Heart Oakland. Come and experience original multimedia work by our YR Stars, ages 14-24, and hear the inspiration behind the work from the diverse group of content creators themselves. Then join a panel discussion with YR Media, Hella Heart Oakland, and the Brotherhood of Elders Network. Hella Heart Oakland (HHO) is a diverse group of like-minded individuals who live or work in Oakland. By pooling our own funds and motivating our networks to give, we support local projects and organizations that are working to improve the Town we love. We’ve worked to strengthen and improve the health and wellness of Asian/Asian American women and girls in Oakland - particularly refugees and new immigrants. Just recently, we led discussions on Black and Asian solidarity in response to the Anti-Asian Hate crimes and are continuing to further expand our work to include more discussions and projects that acknowledge our common histories of oppression and resilience and build bridges between our communities. The Brotherhood of Elders Network is an intergenerational network of men of African ancestry who foster environments where Black boys and young men are empowered to flourish. We advocate for males of African ancestry from infancy to adulthood. We leverage our resources and relationships to benefit Black boys. We maintain cultural connections to our African heritage. We advance and preserve the health and wellness of our families and communities.
