Elaine Brown and Gay Plair Cobb Celebrate Post’s Anniversary

Cathy Adams, CEO of the Oakland African American Chamber of Commerce (OAACC), invited Gay Plair Cobb, Post News Group (PNG) co-owner, and Elaine Brown, former Black Panther leader and now an affordable housing developer, to pose for photo at the EBONY booth at the OAACC’s annual Black Business Kwanzaa expo in Jack London Square as they celebrated the anniversary of the PNG purchased by Gay and her husband in 2004. Gay, a former Board member that built the Oak Center affordable senior apartments tower at 14th& Market Streets in the 70’s, said the Post will also feature future articles on Brown’s 7th Street affordable housing development. Cathy Adams said that dedicated Black women know how to make things better by getting people to work together. Photo courtesy of PNG & OAACC.
