The East Bay within the San Francisco Bay Area has historically had a significant Black population, in comparison to the other counties and cities nearby. Culture of the area has been shaped by the Black population.[1] Most notably the 1960s formation of the Black Panther Party happened in city of Oakland, which also served as the headquarters.
The two counties that comprise the East Bay Area, Alameda and Contra Costa, are estimated at 11% and 10% Black, respectively.[2] The largest city in the East Bay, Oakland, is estimated at 22% Black in 2022.[3]
