We have exciting news! @citysidelocal management informed us today that they plan to voluntarily recognize the @citysideguild!
This is a victory for our new union, and we look forward to working toward certification and our first contract! ✊ @PacMediaGuild@newsguild@CWAUnion
My favorite Oakland trifecta:
1. a story about an Oakland artist @aneesastrings
2. who got her start under the guidance of an OUSD teacher
3. written by yours truly, who also went through OUSD

I’m proud to be @citysideguild with reporters who are dedicated to producing high-quality journalism for the East Bay. Shout out to @Rickytherodas who constantly impresses me with articles that highlight unique local businesses. His latest is a great read: https://t.co/R56sApc2Rg
I’m proud to be in @citysideguild with people who produce and amp quality local news. Shoutout @ChroniclesOfAzu, the arts & community reporter for @Oaklandside. A homegrown talent who meticulously documents entertainment and cultural movements in The Town. https://t.co/bdmMhhQXyz
Shouting out @nat_orenstein, fellow @citysideguild reporter, whose crowd-sourced series on the history of Oakland homes I am obsessed with. You can submit a home for her to explore in her series next. Some pretty bomb folks producing local news at Cside📰

i'm proud to be in @citysideguild with journalists, storytellers, and people who work to support the future of local news! :) wanted to highlight one of my colleagues, Andrew Weiler, who works in advertising to help @citysidelocal connect with sponsors.
As a proud member of the @citysideguild, I want to shout out @amirazizphotos. His recent work covering the Tech/O-High championships demonstrated the importance of visuals when covering such hyper-local news. Just look at these beautiful images 🥲
