” ‘Alice Street’ continues to spread the word that artists of any city should be part of any planning when the word ‘development’ is used…Without the arts, where would our world be? How many songs, images, poems, films, books, have moved our souls to reconfigure our values to get it right…’Alice Street’ tells a story of how a mural is more than paint on wall, but rather a representation of a community from the past and present for our future.”

– David Roach, Oakland International Film Festival Director

“The Alice Street mural has become a chief symbol of cultural resilience in a neighborhood that is being threatened by Oakland’s displacement crisis.”

– East Bay Express

“This documentary shows how art can work as a tool for grassroots activism and underscores the power of coalition-building to disrupt the displacing forces of privilege.”
