The Moms 4 Housing installation at the Oakland Museum features a mock-up of a house occupied by Dominique Walker and her peers in 2019. This protest highlighted the housing crisis and wealth disparity, as Walker and others faced homelessness while houses remained unoccupied. The centerpiece is not only the house model but also a video showing Walker's infant son taking his first steps inside it. This installation embodies the 'remain and reclaim' theme, showcasing both the impact of redlining and the potential for community revitalization.
