For generations, Oakland Chinatown has been a landing place, home, and cultural hub for Asian immigrants and refugees. We’ve survived catastrophic earthquakes, world wars, recessions, gentrification, a pandemic and a surge in anti-Asian violence.

Now, just as our community is struggling to get back on our feet, Chinatown faces another threat: the Oakland A’s Howard Terminal stadium proposal.

John Fisher, the multi-billionaire owner of the Oakland A’s, is proposing a massive stadium development less than 1 mile away from Oakland Chinatown, with a hotel and retail space, luxury housing, and high-rise office buildings.

Join us in calling on City Council to ensure that Oakland A’s stadium mega-development delivers real benefits to local Oakland communities: affordable housing, good union jobs for local communities, anti-displacement funds, and mitigating the traffic, parking, and pollution impacts of 35,000 fans flooding our streets.
