"There will be a number of Juneteenth events in the Bay Area this Friday, but the focal point will be at the Port of Oakland where longshoremen will shut down the port to demand racial equality. For eight hours in the first shift, the cranes and the machinery at all 29 ports on the West Coast will remain silent.

More than 10,000 workers with the International Longshoremen’s and Warehousemen’s Union (ILWU) will participate in the work stoppage on Juneteeth. They plan to march from the Port of Oakland to city hall to protest police brutality and systemic racism. U.S. Senator Kamala Harris tweeted she will introduce a bill to make Juneteenth a national holiday."
