Berkeley Social Welfare mourns the loss and celebrates the life of former Oakland mayor, Social Welfare alum and beloved congressional firebrand Ron Dellums (MSW '62).
"Ron Dellums, the son of a longshoreman who became one of America's best-known black congressmen, a California Democrat with a left-wing agenda that put civil rights and programs for people ahead of weapons systems and warfare, died early Monday at his home in Washington. He was 82." -New York Times Obituary
