Visit the “Hollywood” section of the gallery to design costumes, make your own animated cartoon, and create film sound effects in the “Foley” Studio. At the top of every hour, catch Legacy of Love and East Oakland Rising in the History Gallery Theater. Directed by Cheo Tyehimba Taylor, these two films speak about Oakland’s enduring legacy of social activism.
East Oakland Rising highlights the stories of everyday people coming together with collective determination to fight environmental racism, unfair housing policies, and gentrification in East Oakland. The documentary showcases a ten-year community-organizing journey and offers a valuable blueprint for the next generation.
Legacy of Love follows four mothers who in 1967, established the West Oakland Health Council, which later inspired the Black Panther Party’s free health clinics. With the help of physicians, social workers, and other volunteers, WOHC secured federal funds to build the first Black-led health center. Now known as Baywell Health, this organization continues to be a trusted hub serving the Bay Area’s Black communities nearly 60 years later.
In 一月 2024, NAGPRA regulations were revised to require consultation with and consent from affiliated Tribes before organizations can display human remains, funerary objects, sacred objects, and objects of cultural patrimony. As part of our long-standing and ongoing partnership, OMCA’s administration and our Native Advisory Council have reviewed the objects from Native American cultures that are on view in the galleries. These everyday items help to tell the important story of Native California life and history, and have been determined as permissible to share with the public. OMCA is committed to our continued collaboration with and work for Native communities, and will respect requests for display changes.
