Our Oakland North Radio podcast offers free, downloadable audio stories covering the local community. Oakland North is a project of U.C. Berkeley’s Graduate School of Journalism, and our audio podcasts are produced in cooperation with the school's radio program. With support from the Ford Foundation, graduate student reporters at the school are creating focused news outlets to concentrate on different parts of the Bay Area. You can find our sister sites, covering San Francisco's Mission District and the city of Richmond, California at www.MissionLocal.org and www.RichmondConfidential.org. Our goals are to improve local coverage, experiment with online and digital media, and listen to you -- about the stories and features that most interest you, the issues that concern you, the information services you want, and the reporting you’d like to see undertaken in your own community. Please feel free to contact us at staff@oaklandnorth.net. Happy listening!
