Vibrant Sundays in Oakland
Lugar
Every Sunday morning until afternoon, Oakland shimmers with congregations full of gratitude and faith. There are many faith based organizations sprouted up all over Oakland, and on Sundays Oakland residents, proudly attending Sunday service, celebrate their relationship with faith by being creative through fashion. On Sundays, it's very common to see the elders gracefully stroll to their church in electric-blue or green suits with matching snakeskin loafers and decadent hats. Women and children are dressed up to a T--- all creating a beautiful scene in which people take a lot of pride in their personal representation through fashion. The array of colors and luxurious textures signify Oakland's strong heritage and riding my bike around town just to check out people's outfits is another major reason why Oakland is AWESOME!

About Me
Hi, my name is Marie and I am proud Oakland resident! Despite its struggles and bad reputation, Oakland remains to be one of the most soulful places I've ever lived in. I am a 24 year old Political Science major studying at UC Berkeley and Berkeley City College; but foundationally my true roots are in the arts community. I am a supporter of community enrichment through self-expression. Gaining the privilege to help further develop OurOakland Eastside Stories as this culturally powerful tool of heritage preservation and locale celebration makes me grateful yet again to live here and most of all, excited to meet all of the bright people who create the tightness of the Oakland fabric. Thanks OurOakland!
