In 1971, the Black Panther Party (BPP) founded its longest running social service program, the Oakland Community School (OCS), which operated for eleven years and served as a model for education for Black and poor children living in urban communities.

Join us to learn about the efforts to document the OCS, including the opportunity for UCI undergraduate students to apply for a summer research fellowship (June 21-August 27, 10 weeks, 10 hr/week, $1500)!  Apply by April 30, 2021: https://bit.ly/UCIBPPOCS
