Webmaster Video Comments: http://... - Paul Cobb is a long-time Oakland, California writer, activist, community organizer and now publisher of the Oakand Post. I met Paul at his office in Downtown Oakland to talk about a wide range of subjects, but the two I was most interested in talking about were who killed Chauncey Bailey and what Paul thought about the current Mayor of Oakland, Ron Dellums.Bailey was an Oakland journalist who was supposedly murdered by people associated with Your Black Muslim Bakery. But Cobb and others believe that the chain of events that led to someone murdering a journalist in the line of duty is more complicated and may lead to people and institutions one would not expect.Related blog post on Bailey:http://... our talk, Paul got in some interesting information. Without coming out and saying it directly, Cobb believes that an Oakland Police officer had some role in Bailey's eventual death. He says this twice in the video. Cobb also said that California Attorney General Jerry Brown took Bailey's research files from him and never returned them.Cobb talks about Barack Obama and what his friend the late Dr. Martin Luther King, would think about Barack's historic success in becoming as of this writing the first African American presidential nominee of either party. What Cobb says is not just that he would be proud, but it is the culmination of his dream.Those are some of the highlights of a man who's life goes back to his personal relationship with Martin Luther King.
