Holding a banner saying “Welcome to the Bay Area Where Black, Brown and Poor People Are No Longer Welcome,” the protesters “mic checked” their message to the arriving passengers, backed up by a brochure they distributed. They chanted the names of over 50 Black and Brown people who have been killed by Bay Area police.
The demonstrators moved through the airport, stopping in each terminal to repeat their message. Their demands were 1) The immediate resignations of Mayors Ed Lee (San Francisco) and Libby Schaaf (Oakland); 2) the immediate terminations of (police) Chiefs Sean Whent (Oakland) and Greg Suhr (San Francisco); and 3) the immediate reallocation of city budgets to reduce police spending and allocate funds toward affordable housing.
