College of Alameda hosted Laney College Sociology Professor Ericka Huggins as part of their Breaking Barriers Lecture Series. Huggins led the Black Panthers Party for 14 years. “Revolution is not… an event,” Huggins said. “It’s a constant turning away from the darkness toward the light.” She commended the Black Lives Matter movement, and urged potential allies to stand up, step forward, and foster conversation.

About the Contributor
In the fall of 2019, The Laney Tower rebranded as The Citizen and launched a new website. These stories were ported over from the old Laney Tower website, but byline metadata was lost in the port. However, many of these stories credit the authors in the text of the story. Some articles may also suffer from formatting issues. Future archival efforts may fix these issues.
