A well-spoken, informed, and dedicated real-time documentarian, OakFoSho has been on the ground in the East Bay filming and livestreaming Occupy events since the Oakland encampment was first violently evicted by police in early November. Spencer maintains a keen balance between investigative journalism, real-life interviews, and on-the-spot reporting. He also plays roles unexpected for mainstream journalists: he helps maintain nonviolence in stressful social situations and actively assists in de-escalation when tensions run high. He continuously creates and maintains relationships with the individuals whom he encounters, all the while engendering a positive, upbeat, can-do demeanor that is, well, enjoyable to watch. He's a nice guys and a positive spirit on the front lines of today's fight for Democracy.
Follow him on Twitter @OakFoSho and watch his show sometime; it's the best reality TV you'll find.
