Her reporting helped expose the hidden price immigrant women janitors and farmworkers may pay to keep their jobs: sexual assault at work. It inspired two new California laws to protect them from sexual harassment. She was a key member of the reporting team for the Frontline film \u003cem>Rape on the Night Shift, \u003c/em>which was nominated for two national Emmys. Sasha has also won a national Edward R.

With her combed-out Afro, giant hoop earrings and visible neck tattoo, she comes to her day job as she is—and gets respect for it. As senior program coordinator, she oversees a cohort of 34 teens, supporting them through job searches, school and life’s ups and downs. In fact, nine years ago, Qing Qi was one of these kids: she came to Horizons after becoming pregnant at 14, and she credits the nonprofit for helping her find stability for herself and her son.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Raised in East Palo Alto and based in Oakland, Qing Qi recently rose to local acclaim with her outspoken January mixtape, \u003cem>If a N-ggah Ain’t Sh-t, Play This for his B-tch \u003c/em>(\u003cem>IANASPTFHB\u003c/em>), a 14-track manifesto that airs out resentments about the state of hetero dating in 2018, calling out guys who rely on women for financial support without picking up the slack—emotionally, sexually, domestically or elsewhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zkjdwut_jbI]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I came up with the idea, I was thinking of my friends,” she says. “The three closest women in my life were with trifflin’ ass dudes, and it made me so mad because men are not necessary. Men are an option.

With her combed-out Afro, giant hoop earrings and visible neck tattoo, she comes to her day job as she is—and gets respect for it. As senior program coordinator, she oversees a cohort of 34 teens, supporting them through job searches, school and life’s ups and downs.

Now, they’ve announced that Treasure Island will return this year for its 11th edition, taking place Oct. 13–14 at Middle Harbor Shoreline Park in West Oakland, the site of this month’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13832104/sza-brockhampton-kamaiyah-bring-blurry-vision-into-focus-in-oakland\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Blurry Vision festival\u003c/a>. (Though “Treasure Island Music Festival” is now a bit of a misnomer, Middle Harbor Shoreline Park features nearly the same picturesque bayside view of the San Francisco skyline as the original Treasure Island location.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2018 Treasure Island lineup has yet to be announced, but past performers have included Outkast, Beck, deadmau5, LCD Soundsystem, Vampire Weekend, Ice Cube, Justice, the National, The xx, Fleet Foxes, Major Lazer and Massive Attack.

"content": "\u003cp>The Blurry Vision music festival made an impressive debut in Oakland this weekend, bringing SZA, Migos, Anderson .Paak and Brockhampton and more to Middle Harbor Shoreline Park, a hidden gem at the Port of Oakland. With its picturesque views of shipping cranes, the Bay Bridge and the San Francisco skyline, the park provided a scenic backdrop for the festival, which featured 21 performers over two days, including some of rap and R&B’s brightest stars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite Oakland’s wealth of talent, the booking largely overlooked the region (Kamaiyah, DJ Aux Cord and Caleon Fox were the only locals) — but SZA, Brockhampton and Kamaiyah’s upbeat sets made the festival worth attending. Migos, who make some of the most fun music of our time, surprisingly didn’t sound as polished live as one would expect of artists of their caliber (their vocal backing track was very audible, and Takeoff, the most skillful rapper of the three, carried the set). Few artists opted to have a live band, which would have elevated many of the performances; Anderson .Paak’s set with NxWorries (which features producer Knxledge on turntables) would have sounded more dynamic with his band, the Free Nationals, instead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite a few kinks, like huge lines for drinks and no jumbotrons for the people in the back, Blurry Vision was infused with good vibes. The crowd was young and diverse, with Instagram-worthy makeup and the latest streetwear fashions. The fest had only one stage, feeling more laid-back and intimate than similarly sized events from its promoter, Goldenvoice, the company behind Coachella. Middle Harbor Shoreline Park offered people plenty of space to spread out and dance; weed smoke filled the air as the sun set over the Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Check out highlights from our favorite performances and a photo slideshow below.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13832078\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13832078\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Brockhampton plays Blurry Vision Festival in Oakland on May 12.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-520x346.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Brockhampton plays Blurry Vision Festival in Oakland on May 12. \u003ccite>(Estefany Gonzalez)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Brockhampton Brought a Helicopter on Stage\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prior to Brockhampton’s performance at sunset on Saturday, Blurry Vision felt somewhat sleepy. Without eye-catching set designs or live bands, solo artists like Roy Wood$ and Isaiah Rashaad were easy to tune out. It wasn’t that they weren’t giving their performances their all, but rather, as emerging artists, they hadn’t elevated their shows from club scale to large-scale festival level yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brockhampton, however, are maximalists. They took the stage with a string ensemble and replica helicopter. Their cellist and violinists wore sand-colored outfits resembling military fatigues, with blue face paint recalling Brockhampton’s \u003cem>Saturation III\u003c/em> album cover. Kevin Abstract and his crew of five rappers (out of the group’s total 15 members) wore matching white tees and baggy blue jeans with bulletproof vests, some emblazoned with words like “fiend” and others, more shockingly, with the n-word (hard “R”) and f-word (the gay slur).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The multiracial rap group, with its many openly gay members, seemed to be reclaiming these harmful terms (“What are the rules for breakfast today? / What are the words I’m forbidden to say?,” Abstract rhymed on the defiant “Boogie”). Their militaristic set evoked several ideas — imperialist and police violence, for instance, or the fact that America today can feel like a battleground. The queer and black artists on stage looked like they were ready to fight back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brockhampton are expert showmen: the string musicians shredded on their instruments while the rappers headbanged, ordering the crowd to start a mosh pit. (It turns out the mosh pit is an equalizer, and can make straight men dance to descriptions of gay sex.) Drawing on their shtick of calling themselves a boy band (even though they’re a lot closer to a punk band), they occasionally stepped and danced in unison, uncoordinated and endearing. The group’s flows were dynamic, with an alchemy of distinct voices comparable to firecrackers like Method Man and Redman. Their Blurry Vision set proved the young, scrappy collective has the potential to become cultural change makers, and that they have a bright future ahead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"slideshow\" ids=\"13832142,13832141,13832139,13832136,13832134,13832132,13832130,13832129,13832126,13832127,13832122,13832123,13832124,13832121,13832114,13832113,13832086,13832085,13832082,13832073,13832074,13832069,13832065,13832064,13832062,13832117,13832118,13832131\" orderby=\"rand\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>SZA Made Everyone Feel Like Her Best Friend\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even with a No. 2 album on Billboard, a handful of Grammy nominations and a headlining set at Blurry Vision, SZA introduced herself to the audience on Saturday night as humbly as an artist promoting her first mixtape. In many ways, her onstage persona resonated with the carefree energy of a lot of Oakland girls, with her sporty style; big wild hair instead of a perfectly coiffed weave; and an uninhibitedness to dance crazy and \u003cem>gig\u003c/em> instead of striving to appear doll-like or sexy.

With its picturesque views of shipping cranes, the Bay Bridge and the San Francisco skyline, the park provided a scenic backdrop for the festival, which featured 21 performers over two days, including some of rap and R&B’s brightest stars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite Oakland’s wealth of talent, the booking largely overlooked the region (Kamaiyah, DJ Aux Cord and Caleon Fox were the only locals) — but SZA, Brockhampton and Kamaiyah’s upbeat sets made the festival worth attending. Migos, who make some of the most fun music of our time, surprisingly didn’t sound as polished live as one would expect of artists of their caliber (their vocal backing track was very audible, and Takeoff, the most skillful rapper of the three, carried the set). Few artists opted to have a live band, which would have elevated many of the performances; Anderson .Paak’s set with NxWorries (which features producer Knxledge on turntables) would have sounded more dynamic with his band, the Free Nationals, instead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite a few kinks, like huge lines for drinks and no jumbotrons for the people in the back, Blurry Vision was infused with good vibes. The crowd was young and diverse, with Instagram-worthy makeup and the latest streetwear fashions. The fest had only one stage, feeling more laid-back and intimate than similarly sized events from its promoter, Goldenvoice, the company behind Coachella. Middle Harbor Shoreline Park offered people plenty of space to spread out and dance; weed smoke filled the air as the sun set over the Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Check out highlights from our favorite performances and a photo slideshow below.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13832078\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13832078\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Brockhampton plays Blurry Vision Festival in Oakland on May 12.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/05/MG_9647-520x346.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Brockhampton plays Blurry Vision Festival in Oakland on May 12. \u003ccite>(Estefany Gonzalez)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Brockhampton Brought a Helicopter on Stage\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Without eye-catching set designs or live bands, solo artists like Roy Wood$ and Isaiah Rashaad were easy to tune out. It wasn’t that they weren’t giving their performances their all, but rather, as emerging artists, they hadn’t elevated their shows from club scale to large-scale festival level yet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brockhampton, however, are maximalists. They took the stage with a string ensemble and replica helicopter. Their cellist and violinists wore sand-colored outfits resembling military fatigues, with blue face paint recalling Brockhampton’s \u003cem>Saturation III\u003c/em> album cover. Kevin Abstract and his crew of five rappers (out of the group’s total 15 members) wore matching white tees and baggy blue jeans with bulletproof vests, some emblazoned with words like “fiend” and others, more shockingly, with the n-word (hard “R”) and f-word (the gay slur).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The multiracial rap group, with its many openly gay members, seemed to be reclaiming these harmful terms (“What are the rules for breakfast today? / What are the words I’m forbidden to say?,” Abstract rhymed on the defiant “Boogie”). Their militaristic set evoked several ideas — imperialist and police violence, for instance, or the fact that America today can feel like a battleground. The queer and black artists on stage looked like they were ready to fight back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brockhampton are expert showmen: the string musicians shredded on their instruments while the rappers headbanged, ordering the crowd to start a mosh pit. (It turns out the mosh pit is an equalizer, and can make straight men dance to descriptions of gay sex.) Drawing on their shtick of calling themselves a boy band (even though they’re a lot closer to a punk band), they occasionally stepped and danced in unison, uncoordinated and endearing. The group’s flows were dynamic, with an alchemy of distinct voices comparable to firecrackers like Method Man and Redman. Their Blurry Vision set proved the young, scrappy collective has the potential to become cultural change makers, and that they have a bright future ahead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In many ways, her onstage persona resonated with the carefree energy of a lot of Oakland girls, with her sporty style; big wild hair instead of a perfectly coiffed weave; and an uninhibitedness to dance crazy and \u003cem>gig\u003c/em> instead of striving to appear doll-like or sexy.

My Lolo and Lola (grandmother) saw that as the ultimate opportunity to provide a path for education and opportunity for their kids and their entire family. I feel lucky that they took that risk and that there was a path to citizenship for them at the time. Our whole family benefited and grew from that. My mom has dedicated really her life’s work towards helping immigrant students, many of whom are undocumented Dreamers. It just felt like a no-brainer to me that so many of these young people should not be turned away or sent away. It just felt like I needed to do something and that my music could lend a voice. Without a doubt, my advocacy for Dreamers was affected by my mom’s work and her values.\u003c/p>\n\n",

My Lolo, my grandfather, got a job working for the U.S. military. My Lolo and Lola (grandmother) saw that as the ultimate opportunity to provide a path for education and opportunity for their kids and their entire family. I feel lucky that they took that risk and that there was a path to citizenship for them at the time. Our whole family benefited and grew from that. My mom has dedicated really her life’s work towards helping immigrant students, many of whom are undocumented Dreamers. It just felt like a no-brainer to me that so many of these young people should not be turned away or sent away. It just felt like I needed to do something and that my music could lend a voice. Without a doubt, my advocacy for Dreamers was affected by my mom’s work and her values.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
