But what makes Oakland such an amazing city are the people who have called Oakland home over the years, like Mayor Samuel Merritt, who helped make Oakland the terminus of the transcontinental railroad; Elizabeth Flood, who worked to desegregate Oakland schools in the 1870s; and F.M. "Borax" Smith, who created the Key System. Oakland has been home to game-changing athletes like "father of modern tennis" Don Budge and Curt Flood, who helped bring free agency to sports; artists like writer Jack London, dancer Isadora Duncan, poet Joaquin Miller, and cartoonist Morrie Turner; and culture-shaping movements like the Black Panther Party. However, the impact of Oaklanders is not just historical. From Oscar Grant to Favianna Rodriguez to Marshawn Lynch to Jerry Brown, people in Oakland continue to shape not just "the Town," but the entire country.</p>...2266439Legendary Locals of Oakland222252https://www.gandhi.com.mx/legendary-locals-of-oakland-9781439654057/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3382991/b522cfb7-0544-4079-b97d-f03d7225ced9.jpg?v=638385295522070000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20159781439654057_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_<p>Oakland has been shaped by the transcontinental railroad, freeways, earthquakes, and its location on the shores of San Francisco Bay.
