At a public “Families in Action” forum at Castlemont High School, school board candidates and mayoral candidates spoke about the issues to students, parents, teachers and community members who want a change.
The shooting at an Oakland school campus has put a new spotlight on crime and greater scrutiny on candidates running for the school board and the mayoral seat. Community members shared their concerns with KTVU Thursday night outside a Families in Action mayoral and school board forum, as well as in the East Oakland neighborhoods where residents say there's great need to help lift children out of poverty and violence.
Baldwin says he spent 13 years in prison on gang charges and says his mission now is putting young people on a different path. "Is there a metal detector for kids to go to school?" said Gregory Evans of Oakland, "What are they doing to hire professionals in the community to ask questions of the students about how violence occurs and impacts their life?"
Some say the entire community needs to communicate more and talk with youth about their emotions and the violence they're seeing and feeling.
