The Berkeley You Don’t Know!

As part of the 2012 LaborFest, three local Berkeley
historians discuss lesser known aspects of the compelling struggles for a more
democratic power structure in Berkeley and the East Bay
as well as their populist & socialist traditions. Carole Kennerly was the
first Black woman elected to the Berkeley City Council, and is the retired
Director of the Coop Federal Credit Union. Richard Schwartz is a Berkeley author who has
written on Berkeley’s “eccentrics and cutthroats” as well as its environmental
history. Richard Brenemann was a journalist for the Sacramento Bee, and covered
Berkeley for
the Daily Planet. Don’t miss these lively and insightful stories that built our
past and can contribute to the activism of the 99% for the future generations.
