Uhhh, Los Angeles by a few miles. What a question. Any question that has "capital" and "West Coast" in it will will automatically be Los Angeles except maybe technology.
The LA area still has more than 1 million black people for now, while Oakland has only 100k and fast declining. Not to mention the gangster/West Coast rap style started in LA.

Out of 12,000,000 people LA had 800,000 blacks. That is a much lower percentage than oakland.

The question is city with largest black prescene not city that has influenced black culture the most. Los Angeles would win that competition in a long shot, its produced thousands of black films, black actors, gangsta west coast rap and many other things compared to oakland but actually going through the city, black people have a smaller influence in the actual city then oakland. Oakland's black prescene is far more pronounced and can be seen in more places.

Oakland is also a considerably smaller city by land area and by population than LA. I bet there are more black people in a 56 square mile part of South Central LA than there is in all of Oakland.

But what about right outside of Oakland? Plus aren't Blacks leaving Oakland (and whites being the largest group there now)

The answer is probably Oakland. Blacks have been leaving Los Angeles also at a rapid pace.
