Starting this month, I will be focusing on 10 neighborhoods each month. The goal is to identify and photograph someone from each of those neighborhoods by the end of the month. For November, I am focusing on the following neighborhoods:

Chinatown
Elmhurst Park
Fitchburg
Havenscourt
Laney College
Meadow Brook
North Stonehurst
Panoramic Hill
Ralph Bunche
Seminary

I’m looking for people who 1) Have something to say about Oakland and/or their neighborhood, 2) Are willing to share that message with the rest of the world, and 3) Are willing to allow me to photograph them. If you think you know somebody(s) in one (or more) of these neighborhoods who would like to participate, please send them my way. Below is a map that shows where these 10 neighborhoods are located.
