"Roots Run Deep: The Oakland Roots Journey

 In this special behind-the-scenes episode of Kali Kat Talks Tap, we sit down with Edreece , Co-Founder and Chief Purpose Officer of Oakland Roots SC, to uncover the inspiring story of how this community-driven soccer club is redefining what it means to blend sports, culture, and purpose. 🌱⚽

Edreece shares how the club was born from Oakland's rich diversity, grassroots passion, and the belief that sports can be a force for good. We dive into their humble beginnings, the powerful connection with local businesses and breweries (like their collab with Line 51 🍻), and how they continue to uplift the city through initiatives rooted in equity and justice.

From the boardroom to the pitch, hear firsthand how challenges became opportunities and why the Roots are more than a soccer team — they’re a movement. ✊🏾💥
