Geller and then friends and family and then i will take questions from everybody. Thank you. Thank you for being here today. Before i read maxs statement i want to see you a couple of words. I want to address some of the things that i have seen online. People that dont know max, people demonizing him. People saying he is a bad person. Anyone that says that obviously does not know who max harris is. I have had the pleasure of getting to know him a little bit recently and i was blown away by what a warm, spiritual gentle soul that he is. With that said i will just read his statement. I would like to start with a moment of silence for those who perished and were impacted by this tragedy. Oakland i come to you i came to you a weary traveler struggling as an artist, poor in resources but abu nda nt in the spirit of love and longing for community. I came to visit and i nearly left. For nearly fiveyears the Community Spirit and shared struggle attached to my heart strings. Truly we are a people of brotherly love and free spirit. Especially in the face of economic imbalance, andive difference from the offices that do not all return the togetherness and Community Spirit of the people they are meant to serve. We are a people of struggle and triumph. I experienced hardships likely familiar to many here. The rising cost of rent, landlords a plague of bed bugs and displacement. It was these circumstances that led me to the arts and music collective know known as ghost ship where i came to live and grow. It was a blessing. Nowhere had i previously known a more Diverse Group of creative, beautiful souls. Over the nearly two years i spent in this place i had the pleasure of coming to know hundreds of different members of oaklands community. From the elders of lake merits drum circle, often displaced by complaints of the residential newcomers to members of the Lgbtq Community seeking places to gather free from violence and judgement to members of the still intact fruitvale community neighborhood. A place where i and many others felt hope for the preservation of the Community Spirit and the quality of life more than bearable. A place of fertility and growth that has not betrayed its roots. I tried to crawl out of the depths of sadness that drowned my heart. I had tried in what i believed to be a rabid rebuilding of the shattered pieces of my life, healing and embarking on a creative path of honoring the shared purpose of my brothers and sisters lost. The spirit of true music is immutable and i tried to honor each life lost. How unexpectedly the great mystery moves the hearts of man. Its now facing these charges that i am heartbroken to be both someone who witnessed the horrible events and who lost loved ones but who now is on trial for something that i never would have imagined possible. I have always been a man of faith through reward or tribulation but it is now in these all trying circumstances that i believe i have come to know the endless well spring of love from the community. It is said there is no burden placed upon a soul heavier than can be borne. I do know that mine is full of love and hope for myself and for this world. I only pray nah im allowed to serve my strengthened inspired purpose and walk again under open skies knowing the full bounty and grace be stowed upon us here. Thank you, max harris.
