Talks

OPL features talks on special topics from local experts.

To name just a few: we've hosted Saturu Ned's talk on Black Panther Party History in Oakland, Dale Tafoya's discussion of his book, "Billy Ball: Billy Martin and the Resurrection of the Oakland A's", and East Bay Regional Park naturalist Constance Taylor's presentation "Roots-eye View: A Story of Oakland in Trees."

We host speakers online and in person.
