Oakland Mayor vs Boots Riley, Young Comrades & Callers 1996 Cops @ Lake Merritt
– video made by the YouTube channel with the logo in the video’s upper left hand corner. OaklandNewsNow.com is the original blog post for this type of video-blog content.
July 23rd 1996 Oakland City Council meeting that aired live on local cable station KTOP TV on the then controversial topic of the behavior of the OPD at Lake Merritt and all Oakland residents been able to freely congregate around the Lake. Then Oakland CA Mayor Elihu Harris had a day he likely never expected when confronted by members of the Young Comrades, Boots Riley of the Coup and those phone call messages played – all of which remember aired live on KTOP television which, while not too many watched normally, luckily we at HipHopSlam in Oakland recorded it at the time and featured this segment on our underground, homemade limited run giveway VHS mix tape “DJs & Rappers Vol.1” (1996) and were reminded of it a few months ago when Boots Riley requested a copy of this clip – then yesterday we finally located and digitized the full tape inc. this City Council meeting segment.

This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. What we call “The Third Wave of Media”. The uploaded video is from a YouTube channel. When the YouTube video matches a search pattern for “Lake Merritt” , then it is automatically uploaded to and formatted automatically at the Oakland News Now site and Zennie62-created and owned social media pages. The overall objective here, on top of our is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours – is the use of the existing YouTube social graph on any subject in the World. Now, news is reported with a smartphone and also by promoting current content on YouTube: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary, or having a camera crew to shoot what is already on YouTube. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.
