The Fruitvale History Project was formed to preserve the memory and legacy of those who organized and struggled for human rights, community services, and social justice during the vibrant period of social and political upheaval that marked the 1960s to early 1980s in the Fruitvale neighborhood of East Oakland. 

This website was created to present that curated history, share with those who are interested, and educate anyone who may not have been aware of its rich history. We hope you enjoy!
