Occupy Oakland: photos before and after violent police raid

About the photos above and below, Mike Godwin says,

The “Before” photo, with Occupy Oakland tents in place, was taken
October 21. Photographer Donna Enright, an Oakland resident, says she
took the photo because she heard from her employer that Occupy Oakland
had been served with a notice that the demonstrators were to be
evicted.

“I thought this was the last chance I might have to take a
picture of [the tents], she says.

The “After” photo was taken later in
the day after the pre-sunrise October 25 police intervention at Frank
Ogawa Plaza.
