"content": "\u003cp>As rain falls on greater Northern California, and snow accumulates on the Sierra Nevada mountains, I keep laughing in disbelief, thinking about Kaddo’s situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>See, Kaddo is a rapper from 77th and Greenside in East Oakland. After getting transferred from Telsa’s Fremont factory to the one in Reno, he now lives in Nevada. He’s so committed to his craft and community, he used to drive back and forth just to record tracks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few weeks ago, I saw him in person and he told me about life on the interstate. How living in Reno isn’t that bad, though some folks say the city’s name is an acronym for “Run Every N*gg* Out.” He says Nevada’s open carry laws have made living there more comfortable than in Oakland, at least when it comes to weapons. And he’s even gotten accustomed to the long slowdown over Donner Summit when there’s a storm approaching. The image of Kaddo, a black man with locs and gold teeth, putting chains on his car tires in the middle of the snowstorm sticks with me. It’s a reminder that although my commute is bad, \u003cem>it ain’t that bad\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it’s still bad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13865533/daps-and-hugs-im-moving-out-of-oakland\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">moving out of Oakland\u003c/a> to Sacramento three months ago, I’ve seen a lot: car accidents, roadkill, sunsets. I’ve driven past the charred fields from fires that scorched the grassy hillsides adjacent to the Carquinez Bridge. One day on Amtrak, my phone died, so I biked home through hail. When I turned my phone on, I learned a tornado had touched down in Davis at the same time my train went through town. And then there was the day the dammed refinery in Crockett exploded; it caused my Greyhound bus to take the supremely scenic route—a four-hour detour through Stockton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I often ask myself, what’s the difference between a “commute” and “road trip”?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve grown extremely familiar with the highways and byways between the Bay Area and the state capital. I know best times to go through the Yolo Bypass, as well as the MacArthur Maze (hint: never). I’ve gotten familiar with where CHP likes to hide out to catch speeding drivers. Hell, give me a few more months and I’ll have memorized the grazing patterns of the cattle alongside I-80.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve reluctantly fallen in love with this commute, and how it gives me time to think about more than just Oakland. But I always end up thinking about Oakland. If we’re going to be honest, I’m suffering, bro. It ain’t even FOMO. It’s POMO—the pain of missing out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It hurts to not be in the town for small events. You know, potlucks, movie screenings and earthquakes—“Earthquake Twitter” just isn’t as fun from outside of the club. I think anyone who’s left home goes through this process. You know, where home isn’t home anymore, and at the same time, your new home isn’t home either.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So I’ve been trying to hold on to things that remind me of home.

Beyond the cows and the spot where the motorcycle cop sometimes hides, and just before cresting the hillside that separates Fairfield from Vallejo. That’s when Rexx Life Raj’s song “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3976ZIbJc8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Fog\u003c/a>” came on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No lie, at that exact moment, wisps of Bay Area fog began to accumulate in front of my car.

Hartlaub and his colleague Heather Knight host a screening of \u003cem>Sister Act\u003c/em> next week, with two opening acts: a bagpipe player, and the official 2019 Cable Car Bell ringing champion. That’s on Thursday, Dec. 5, at the Balboa Theater in San Francisco. \u003ca href=\"https://ticketing.us.veezi.com/purchase/2786?siteToken=52wkfzmjpwjjfpz3ye7tz8wscg\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Details here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Pharoah Sanders\u003c/strong>: This 79-year-old jazz legend is immediately recognizable for his viscerally abrasive, ever-searching style of tenor saxophone, an inimitable voice honed in the Sun Ra Arkestra and John Coltrane ensembles before leading his own groups. As a bandleader in the late 1960s, Sanders continued exploring free and spiritual jazz on a staggering run of albums for the Impulse! label, by turns intoning peace with wounded lyricism and reveling in explosive, anguished intensity. Sanders last played the Bay Area in 2017, part of a program recognizing Coltrane, and returns with the same collaborators—pianist William Henderson, bassist Nat Reeves and drummer Johnathan Blake—for two sets a night on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 29 and 30, at Yoshi’s in Oakland. \u003ca href=\"https://www.yoshis.com/calendar/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Details here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ghost Ship Memorial\u003c/strong>: It’s been three years since the Ghost Ship warehouse fire in Oakland that took the lives of 36 people at an underground show. Many of them were musicians and artists, and each year, to remember them, there’ve been memorial concerts and special gatherings. The one this Sunday is both: an art show of work by artists who died at Ghost Ship, and a concert by the chamber choral ensemble Voices of Silicon Valley, who will be joined by two bands whose members were close with people who died in the Ghost Ship fire: Abandoned Footwear and Marmot. That’s on Sunday, Dec. 1, at the Lake Merritt United Methodist Church in Oakland. \u003ca href=\"https://www.voices-sv.org/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Details here\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tune-Yards Listening Party\u003c/strong>: Bar Shiru opened this year in Oakland as the Bay Area’s first Japanese-style hi-fi bar, meaning it has a really nice analog sound-system and people are supposed to be quiet. Tune-Yards, the local indie-rock group, created the distinct score for Boots Riley’s funny, provocative Oakland-set film \u003cem>Sorry to Bother You\u003c/em>, and they’re hosting a listening party for it at Bar Shiru alongside a DJ set by Boots himself. This event, in keeping with Boots’ activism and the movie’s political themes, is a fundraiser. The proceeds benefit Moms 4 Housing, a group of homeless women who are occupying an empty investor-owned home in West Oakland, without permission, to protest the housing crisis. That’s Sunday, Dec. 1, at 2pm, at Bar Shiru in Oakland. \u003ca href=\"https://www.barshiru.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Details here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The Do List has you covered with concerts, festivals, exhibitions, plays, performances and more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can listen to this week’s episode with KQED’s Gabe Meline and Sam Lefebvre above, or read about our picks below.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sister Act\u003c/strong>: This Whoopi Goldberg-starring film was shot in San Francisco—Noe Valley, to be precise—in 1991. The journalist Peter Hartlaub from the \u003cem>San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/em> has spent his past few weeks \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/culture/article/Sister-Act-transformed-Noe-Valley-into-a-14865742.php\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">obsessively finding the exact filming locations\u003c/a> of the movie. You won’t recognize a lot of the neighborhood in the movie—the crew even transformed a corner real estate building into an X-rated adult bookstore for the film—but that’s part of the fun. Hartlaub and his colleague Heather Knight host a screening of \u003cem>Sister Act\u003c/em> next week, with two opening acts: a bagpipe player, and the official 2019 Cable Car Bell ringing champion. That’s on Thursday, Dec. 5, at the Balboa Theater in San Francisco. \u003ca href=\"https://ticketing.us.veezi.com/purchase/2786?siteToken=52wkfzmjpwjjfpz3ye7tz8wscg\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Details here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Pharoah Sanders\u003c/strong>: This 79-year-old jazz legend is immediately recognizable for his viscerally abrasive, ever-searching style of tenor saxophone, an inimitable voice honed in the Sun Ra Arkestra and John Coltrane ensembles before leading his own groups. As a bandleader in the late 1960s, Sanders continued exploring free and spiritual jazz on a staggering run of albums for the Impulse! label, by turns intoning peace with wounded lyricism and reveling in explosive, anguished intensity. Sanders last played the Bay Area in 2017, part of a program recognizing Coltrane, and returns with the same collaborators—pianist William Henderson, bassist Nat Reeves and drummer Johnathan Blake—for two sets a night on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 29 and 30, at Yoshi’s in Oakland. \u003ca href=\"https://www.yoshis.com/calendar/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Details here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ghost Ship Memorial\u003c/strong>: It’s been three years since the Ghost Ship warehouse fire in Oakland that took the lives of 36 people at an underground show. Many of them were musicians and artists, and each year, to remember them, there’ve been memorial concerts and special gatherings. The one this Sunday is both: an art show of work by artists who died at Ghost Ship, and a concert by the chamber choral ensemble Voices of Silicon Valley, who will be joined by two bands whose members were close with people who died in the Ghost Ship fire: Abandoned Footwear and Marmot. That’s on Sunday, Dec. 1, at the Lake Merritt United Methodist Church in Oakland. \u003ca href=\"https://www.voices-sv.org/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Details here\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Tune-Yards, the local indie-rock group, created the distinct score for Boots Riley’s funny, provocative Oakland-set film \u003cem>Sorry to Bother You\u003c/em>, and they’re hosting a listening party for it at Bar Shiru alongside a DJ set by Boots himself. This event, in keeping with Boots’ activism and the movie’s political themes, is a fundraiser. The proceeds benefit Moms 4 Housing, a group of homeless women who are occupying an empty investor-owned home in West Oakland, without permission, to protest the housing crisis. That’s Sunday, Dec. 1, at 2pm, at Bar Shiru in Oakland. \u003ca href=\"https://www.barshiru.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Details here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>Can \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/artists/15750509/dolly-parton\">Dolly Parton\u003c/a> heal America? That’s the question posed by a new podcast from WNYC, \u003ca href=\"https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/dolly-partons-america\">\u003cem>Dolly Parton’s America\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003cem>, \u003c/em>hosted by \u003cem>Radiolab\u003c/em>‘s Jad Abumrad. It’s not as far-fetched as you might think.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The public radio host saw something in the iconic country singer — the way she’s composed of contradictions — that seemed somehow revelatory of the country as a whole. Dolly’s concert-attending fan base is composed of people we don’t think of having a lot in common these days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’ve got evangelical church ladies standing next to men in drag — Dolly is massive in the LGBTQ community — standing next to guys in trucker hats,” Abumrad says. “All of these different communities, on either side of the ‘culture wars,’ all standing together, shoulder-to-shoulder, singing the same song.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NPR’s Ari Shapiro spoke to Abumrad about reexamining Dolly’s cultural legacy, including her overlooked musical genius, her ability to exist as a container for so many ideas about America and her unexpected rejection of the label “feminist.” Hear the story in the audio player above and read on for an edited transcript of their conversation.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ari Shapiro: To talk for a minute about Dolly, the person and the musician, rather than Dolly, the metaphor and the symbol: You, in the very first episode, talk about the way she is perceived, the jokes about her appearance — the jokes she makes \u003c/strong>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>herself\u003c/strong>\u003c/em>\u003cstrong>. And then you pivot to the argument that she is among the best songwriters of the 20th century. One expert tells you that, if she were alive at a different time, she would have been like Mozart. How do you reconcile those two aspects of Dolly Parton, the genius and the punchline?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jad Abumrad:\u003c/strong> I don’t quite know how to reconcile them. But it does strike you when you look back at 1960s Dolly and 1970s Dolly, and you look at the number of songs that she’s writing — I mean, to say she was prolific doesn’t even capture it. She is writing No. 1 song after No. 1 song. Some of the greatest songs in pop music, they’re falling out of her head.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She told me in one interview — she wasn’t sure if this was true — but she may have written “I Will Always Love You” and “Jolene” on the same night. “I Will Always Love You” is a song that hit No. 1 in three consecutive decades [and] almost did it a fourth time. “Jolene” is a song that was translated into, I think, 40 different languages, and there are 200 different covers. And that happened on the \u003cem>same night\u003c/em>?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So why does somebody who can do that need to be a caricature, need to be a parody? Is it just the reality of existing as a woman in America and in Nashville at that time?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yeah, I think so. I mean, that’s certainly what she said to me. If you consider Dolly in 1967, when she really hits the scene as the “girl singer” on \u003cem>The Porter Wagoner Show\u003c/em> — at that time, there were no lead roles for women.

That’s the question posed by a new podcast from WNYC, \u003ca href=\"https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/dolly-partons-america\">\u003cem>Dolly Parton’s America\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003cem>, \u003c/em>hosted by \u003cem>Radiolab\u003c/em>‘s Jad Abumrad. It’s not as far-fetched as you might think.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The public radio host saw something in the iconic country singer — the way she’s composed of contradictions — that seemed somehow revelatory of the country as a whole. Dolly’s concert-attending fan base is composed of people we don’t think of having a lot in common these days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You’ve got evangelical church ladies standing next to men in drag — Dolly is massive in the LGBTQ community — standing next to guys in trucker hats,” Abumrad says. “All of these different communities, on either side of the ‘culture wars,’ all standing together, shoulder-to-shoulder, singing the same song.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>NPR’s Ari Shapiro spoke to Abumrad about reexamining Dolly’s cultural legacy, including her overlooked musical genius, her ability to exist as a container for so many ideas about America and her unexpected rejection of the label “feminist.” Hear the story in the audio player above and read on for an edited transcript of their conversation.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ari Shapiro: To talk for a minute about Dolly, the person and the musician, rather than Dolly, the metaphor and the symbol: You, in the very first episode, talk about the way she is perceived, the jokes about her appearance — the jokes she makes \u003c/strong>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>herself\u003c/strong>\u003c/em>\u003cstrong>. And then you pivot to the argument that she is among the best songwriters of the 20th century. One expert tells you that, if she were alive at a different time, she would have been like Mozart. How do you reconcile those two aspects of Dolly Parton, the genius and the punchline?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But it does strike you when you look back at 1960s Dolly and 1970s Dolly, and you look at the number of songs that she’s writing — I mean, to say she was prolific doesn’t even capture it. She is writing No. 1 song after No. 1 song. Some of the greatest songs in pop music, they’re falling out of her head.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She told me in one interview — she wasn’t sure if this was true — but she may have written “I Will Always Love You” and “Jolene” on the same night. “I Will Always Love You” is a song that hit No. 1 in three consecutive decades [and] almost did it a fourth time. “Jolene” is a song that was translated into, I think, 40 different languages, and there are 200 different covers. And that happened on the \u003cem>same night\u003c/em>?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So why does somebody who can do that need to be a caricature, need to be a parody? Is it just the reality of existing as a woman in America and in Nashville at that time?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yeah, I think so. I mean, that’s certainly what she said to me. If you consider Dolly in 1967, when she really hits the scene as the “girl singer” on \u003cem>The Porter Wagoner Show\u003c/em> — at that time, there were no lead roles for women. I mean, the female singer was sort of a decorative aspect of the male show, and that didn’t leave a lot of place for someone like Dolly, so she perhaps had to sort of play the male game for a while.

"content": "\u003cp>Staff at Mills College are following in the footsteps of the Oakland liberal arts institution’s adjunct faculty members by unionizing as part of a broader organized labor trend in Bay Area higher education. [aside postID=arts_13855321,arts_12248119,arts_13389908] \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last month Mills staff announced the campaign to unionize with Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Local 1021, which also represents Mills faculty and this year \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13855321/california-college-of-the-arts-campus-consolidation-spurs-union-effort\">organized staff\u003c/a> at California College of the Arts. Organizers say the effort has widespread support on campus and estimated more than 200 employees are eligible for the bargaining unit. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday, members of the staff organizing committee, joined by a student supporter, delivered a letter to Elizabeth Hillman, the school’s president, requesting the administration voluntarily recognize the union in order to avoid a costly, potentially contentious election process through the National Labor Relations Board. “We seek to cultivate a partnership with College administration that honors the overwhelming support for unionization among Mills staff,” it reads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When it comes to labor unions, Mills embraces the democratic principle of free and fair decision-making by employees,” said Hillman, who’s led Mills since 2016, in a statement to KQED. “We’re now assessing how the possibility of unionization would affect our efforts to work together with our faculty and the entire community to ensure a sustainable future for Mills.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Workers in various departments say they’re organizing for higher wages, stronger benefits and greater representation in institutional decision-making as Mills rebounds from a “financial emergency” two years ago. Like faculty and staff at other local colleges to unionize in recent years, they’re motivated to address issues such as wage stagnation, with incoming employees earning more than longtime ones in similar roles, by the rising cost-of-living in the Bay Area. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mills has a social-justice and diversity policy that’s public and is supposed to drive institutional decisions around staffing and pedagogy,” said Brendan Glasson, a 2018 Mills graduate and staff organizer who now works as the music center technical director. “This is about helping Mills adhere itself further to its commitments to equity and sustainable working conditions.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some Mills staff have gone as many as eight years without raises, and benefits such as retirement contributions have declined as well, according to staff organizers. Employees have also been laid off and then encouraged to reapply for similar positions with added responsibilities. For example, Madison Davis, an alum and staff organizer who’s worked as a Mills fundraiser since 2017, said her job was previously divided between two people. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Due to the working conditions and low morale, Mills struggles with employee retention, and union organizers point out that rapid staff turnover also diminishes the student experience. “As a longtime employee, I’m watching Mills become a place where people work for 2-5 years and then leave, and that’s not particularly sustainable for us or our students,” said Vala Burnett, a Mills alum and staff organizer who’s worked as a health-sciences coordinator since 2005.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills, a private college for women and gender non-binary students, with graduate programs for all genders, declared a financial emergency in 2017 to resolve a $9 million deficit, and moved to fire eleven professors, many of them tenured, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13389908/jazz-pioneer-roscoe-mitchell-marked-for-dismissal-at-mills-college\">including\u003c/a> the internationally renowned composer and improviser Roscoe Mitchell. The American Association of University Professors criticized the administration for “declining to consider … alternatives to terminating faculty appointments.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond forcing out Mitchell, an important draw for music students, the crisis dramatically affected the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/12248119/fifty-years-of-limitless-possibility-at-the-center-for-contemporary-music-at-mills-college\">storied Center for Contemporary Music\u003c/a>: Co-directors Chris Brown and Maggi Payne, longtime campus and music scene fixtures, retired early in the hopes of pre-empting additional cuts. Several other departments were also marked for downsizing as the school struggled to increase enrollment and, in the view of critics, prioritized sciences over liberal arts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Like many other small colleges, we are continuing to manage a budget deficit created by investment in new programs and lower enrollments,” Hillman said in a statement. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the wake of the restructuring—part of a financial stabilization plan aiming to balance the budget by next year—Mills staff believe unionizing will give them greater representation in cost-cutting decisions in order to avoid or mitigate the effects of similar layoffs. “So it’s also about transparency,” Burnett said. “Through this process we get to the table, we get to open the books, and then staff is positioned to bring our knowledge to help Mills solve its problems.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SEIU Local 1021, which represents staff and faculty at several local private colleges, helped Mills adjuncts ratify their first union contract in 2016. According to the union, the contract provided adjuncts with an average 13-percent raise, protection against reduction of benefits and more say in working conditions. SEIU, known for representing public employees, has been organizing adjunct professors in recent years as part of its “Faculty Forward” campaign.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Organizers say the effort has widespread support on campus and estimated more than 200 employees are eligible for the bargaining unit. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday, members of the staff organizing committee, joined by a student supporter, delivered a letter to Elizabeth Hillman, the school’s president, requesting the administration voluntarily recognize the union in order to avoid a costly, potentially contentious election process through the National Labor Relations Board. “We seek to cultivate a partnership with College administration that honors the overwhelming support for unionization among Mills staff,” it reads.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When it comes to labor unions, Mills embraces the democratic principle of free and fair decision-making by employees,” said Hillman, who’s led Mills since 2016, in a statement to KQED. “We’re now assessing how the possibility of unionization would affect our efforts to work together with our faculty and the entire community to ensure a sustainable future for Mills.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Workers in various departments say they’re organizing for higher wages, stronger benefits and greater representation in institutional decision-making as Mills rebounds from a “financial emergency” two years ago. Like faculty and staff at other local colleges to unionize in recent years, they’re motivated to address issues such as wage stagnation, with incoming employees earning more than longtime ones in similar roles, by the rising cost-of-living in the Bay Area. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Employees have also been laid off and then encouraged to reapply for similar positions with added responsibilities. For example, Madison Davis, an alum and staff organizer who’s worked as a Mills fundraiser since 2017, said her job was previously divided between two people. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Due to the working conditions and low morale, Mills struggles with employee retention, and union organizers point out that rapid staff turnover also diminishes the student experience. “As a longtime employee, I’m watching Mills become a place where people work for 2-5 years and then leave, and that’s not particularly sustainable for us or our students,” said Vala Burnett, a Mills alum and staff organizer who’s worked as a health-sciences coordinator since 2005.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mills, a private college for women and gender non-binary students, with graduate programs for all genders, declared a financial emergency in 2017 to resolve a $9 million deficit, and moved to fire eleven professors, many of them tenured, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13389908/jazz-pioneer-roscoe-mitchell-marked-for-dismissal-at-mills-college\">including\u003c/a> the internationally renowned composer and improviser Roscoe Mitchell. The American Association of University Professors criticized the administration for “declining to consider … alternatives to terminating faculty appointments.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond forcing out Mitchell, an important draw for music students, the crisis dramatically affected the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/12248119/fifty-years-of-limitless-possibility-at-the-center-for-contemporary-music-at-mills-college\">storied Center for Contemporary Music\u003c/a>: Co-directors Chris Brown and Maggi Payne, longtime campus and music scene fixtures, retired early in the hopes of pre-empting additional cuts. Several other departments were also marked for downsizing as the school struggled to increase enrollment and, in the view of critics, prioritized sciences over liberal arts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Like many other small colleges, we are continuing to manage a budget deficit created by investment in new programs and lower enrollments,” Hillman said in a statement. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the wake of the restructuring—part of a financial stabilization plan aiming to balance the budget by next year—Mills staff believe unionizing will give them greater representation in cost-cutting decisions in order to avoid or mitigate the effects of similar layoffs. “So it’s also about transparency,” Burnett said. “Through this process we get to the table, we get to open the books, and then staff is positioned to bring our knowledge to help Mills solve its problems.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SEIU Local 1021, which represents staff and faculty at several local private colleges, helped Mills adjuncts ratify their first union contract in 2016. According to the union, the contract provided adjuncts with an average 13-percent raise, protection against reduction of benefits and more say in working conditions. SEIU, known for representing public employees, has been organizing adjunct professors in recent years as part of its “Faculty Forward” campaign.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>The Grammy Awards’ category for new artists has always been the\u003ca href=\"https://harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Hufflepuff\"> Hufflepuff\u003c/a> house of the event, a mishmash of eccentrics, high achievers and hard-working young music industry favorites. (Notorious category winners\u003ca href=\"https://gizmodo.com/20-years-ago-today-milli-vanilli-lost-their-grammy-for-5694574\"> Milli Vanilli\u003c/a> did work hard, just not at singing.) Rarely has the field clearly pointed toward an exciting new musical era. But this year, that’s exactly what it suggests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three breakthrough pop stars, each of whom embodies creativity and influence in the streaming age—and who, together, garnered this year’s most Grammy nominations across the board—compete with three women exploding the boundaries of genres that might have previously held them back, alongside two groups with major grassroots followings and a powerful way of defying categorization. These musicians are fluent in the style-defying language of 21st-century sounds; their members look like America, and beyond its borders, the changing pop world; and they all released genuinely great music in 2019. Whoever wins in this category will deserve it— and will likely play a role in shaping popular music for a long time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Black Pumas\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This Austin-based duo-plus represents what bands are becoming in the new century: versatile, open-ended partnerships forged by adept experimenting with form. Singer Eric Burton learned his chops both auditioning for \u003cem>American Idol\u003c/em> and busking on L.A.’s Santa Monica Pier; producer-multi-instrumentalist Adrian Quesada is a Latinx music veteran (he’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.grammy.com/search/grupo%20fantasma\">won\u003c/a> a Grammy as a member of the funk orchestra Grupo Fantasma). Together, they’re reinventing Southwestern soul with a blend that honors the region’s funky historical fusions while incorporating a hip-hop vibe. The sum of their experience makes them a great live act, the key to success as a band in 2019.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptWQ_-xmvXY&feature=emb_logo\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Billie Eilish\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At 17 years old, Eilish is the youngest-ever multiple Grammy nominee across the top four categories: best new artist, record, album and song of the year. She could pull this off because, like the SoundCloud rappers who’ve inspired her, she writes her own material with her brother, Finneas—mostly eschewing teen pop’s starmaking machinery. (She was quietly signed to a major-label development deal at age fourteen, but she and Finneas recorded the bulk of the songs that have made her a star\u003ca href=\"https://www.prosoundnetwork.com/recording/finneas-on-producing-billie-eilishs-number-one-album-in-his-bedroom\"> at home\u003c/a>.) Homeschooled by Hollywood-savvy parents, enraptured by SoundCloud rappers like Tyler, The Creator but equally indebted to Avril Lavigne, vocally ultrafeminine but otherwise androgynous—Eilish embodies the erasure of binary thinking about music, emotion and the self: she is the living essence of Generation Z.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-PZsSWwc9xA&feature=emb_logo\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Lil Nas X\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If new technologies generate the stars they deserve, the social media platform TikTok must be particularly blessed, because its breakthrough star is absolutely fabulous. Montero Lamar Hill, now 20, was just another kid trying to get Internet famous when he discovered a beat made by a Dutch kid and bought it\u003ca href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2019/07/23/lil-nas-x-bought-the-beat-used-in-old-town-road-for-30-on-beatstars.html\"> for $30\u003c/a>. Around it, he built “Old Town Road,” the single biggest challenge to old music biz ways issued in recent memory. Country music will never be the same, but neither will pop or hip-hop. His irresistible hit is the\u003ca href=\"https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/ray-charles-whatd-i-say-origin-842880/\"> “What’d I Say”\u003c/a> of our time, refusing to be contained—as does Lil Nas X himself, as much a comedian, conceptualist and burgeoning fashion icon as he is a musician. Like TikTok itself—a tool for capturing teens’ mobile imaginations—Lil Nas X takes us all into brand-new territory.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2Ov5jzm3j8&feature=emb_logo\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Lizzo\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With two albums already under her sparkly belt, Lizzo is the kind of slow-burning phenomenon whose presence may seem odd in the best new artist category, but she belongs here—until 2019, the world was not entirely ready for her. The Houston-born, Minneapolis-nurtured rapper, singer and all-around generator of good vibes, challenges all kinds of preconceived notions about women’s pleasure, power and beauty, proudly queering the pitch of pop without being strident or politically correct.

As a teen, Rogers pursued a conventional singer-songwriter role, but time spent in Berlin led her to dance music; she explored that intersection as a student at NYU’s Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music, where her teacher, NPR Music contributor Jason King, introduced her to Pharrell one day. The rest is a classic discovery story—except that like Billie Eilish, Rogers resisted being molded by the major label who signed her.

Her music is rooted in the folkloric, theatrical lineage of \u003cem>flamenco\u003c/em>, which she studied seriously for a decade before fashioning her hybrid urban Latin sound. Her 2018 album, \u003cem>El Mal Querer—\u003c/em>inspired by a 14th-century novel of “dark love”—won the hearts of critics and influencers, and she went on to collaborate with Latin pop superstar J Balvin on the song “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7bfOZek9t4\">Con Altura\u003c/a>,” which became a worldwide smash. Rosalía’s fluidity in combining experimental and mainstream elements distinguishes her, as does the fact that she sings in Spanish—she’s the first artist who performs solely in that language to be nominated as best new artist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rht7rBHuXW8&feature=emb_logo\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tank and the Bangas\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As much as 21st-century pop often floats forth from an unmoored Internet, it’s also generated within local communities whose reach grows through unprecedented platforms.

(Notorious category winners\u003ca href=\"https://gizmodo.com/20-years-ago-today-milli-vanilli-lost-their-grammy-for-5694574\"> Milli Vanilli\u003c/a> did work hard, just not at singing.) Rarely has the field clearly pointed toward an exciting new musical era. But this year, that’s exactly what it suggests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three breakthrough pop stars, each of whom embodies creativity and influence in the streaming age—and who, together, garnered this year’s most Grammy nominations across the board—compete with three women exploding the boundaries of genres that might have previously held them back, alongside two groups with major grassroots followings and a powerful way of defying categorization. These musicians are fluent in the style-defying language of 21st-century sounds; their members look like America, and beyond its borders, the changing pop world; and they all released genuinely great music in 2019. Whoever wins in this category will deserve it— and will likely play a role in shaping popular music for a long time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Black Pumas\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This Austin-based duo-plus represents what bands are becoming in the new century: versatile, open-ended partnerships forged by adept experimenting with form. Singer Eric Burton learned his chops both auditioning for \u003cem>American Idol\u003c/em> and busking on L.A.’s Santa Monica Pier; producer-multi-instrumentalist Adrian Quesada is a Latinx music veteran (he’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.grammy.com/search/grupo%20fantasma\">won\u003c/a> a Grammy as a member of the funk orchestra Grupo Fantasma). Together, they’re reinventing Southwestern soul with a blend that honors the region’s funky historical fusions while incorporating a hip-hop vibe. The sum of their experience makes them a great live act, the key to success as a band in 2019.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/ptWQ_-xmvXY'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/ptWQ_-xmvXY'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

She could pull this off because, like the SoundCloud rappers who’ve inspired her, she writes her own material with her brother, Finneas—mostly eschewing teen pop’s starmaking machinery. (She was quietly signed to a major-label development deal at age fourteen, but she and Finneas recorded the bulk of the songs that have made her a star\u003ca href=\"https://www.prosoundnetwork.com/recording/finneas-on-producing-billie-eilishs-number-one-album-in-his-bedroom\"> at home\u003c/a>.) Homeschooled by Hollywood-savvy parents, enraptured by SoundCloud rappers like Tyler, The Creator but equally indebted to Avril Lavigne, vocally ultrafeminine but otherwise androgynous—Eilish embodies the erasure of binary thinking about music, emotion and the self: she is the living essence of Generation Z.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/-PZsSWwc9xA'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/-PZsSWwc9xA'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Lil Nas X\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If new technologies generate the stars they deserve, the social media platform TikTok must be particularly blessed, because its breakthrough star is absolutely fabulous. Montero Lamar Hill, now 20, was just another kid trying to get Internet famous when he discovered a beat made by a Dutch kid and bought it\u003ca href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2019/07/23/lil-nas-x-bought-the-beat-used-in-old-town-road-for-30-on-beatstars.html\"> for $30\u003c/a>. Around it, he built “Old Town Road,” the single biggest challenge to old music biz ways issued in recent memory. Country music will never be the same, but neither will pop or hip-hop. His irresistible hit is the\u003ca href=\"https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/ray-charles-whatd-i-say-origin-842880/\"> “What’d I Say”\u003c/a> of our time, refusing to be contained—as does Lil Nas X himself, as much a comedian, conceptualist and burgeoning fashion icon as he is a musician.

The Houston-born, Minneapolis-nurtured rapper, singer and all-around generator of good vibes, challenges all kinds of preconceived notions about women’s pleasure, power and beauty, proudly queering the pitch of pop without being strident or politically correct. And she’s a band nerd who’s single-handedly revived the flute as a cool high school accessory.
