In his dreams, he meets a slew of historical figures -- from Sacagawea to Jackie Robinson -- and travels to some of the darkest corners of America's past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The performance, held May 1-3 at Oakland Technical High School, includes 78 characters, several musical numbers, elaborate sets and choreographed dances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don’t really like how we get called high school theater,\" says senior Jacob Moore, who has performed in five plays at Oakland Tech. He has two roles this spring: Jesus and a Japanese game show host. He's also in charge of costumes. \"We do productions.

The building had a leaky roof and broken seats, and there was no performing arts program to speak of. Even today, Moreno says, only about a third of students at Oakland's public schools have access to any kind of arts education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Moreno is helping to change that. A few years ago, the American High School Theatre Festival named the OakTech Rep one of the top 50 drama programs in the country. Moreno and her students traveled to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in Scotland -- the largest arts festival in the world -- to perform \"Hamlet: Blood in the Brain,\" an adaptation of the Shakespeare classic set in 1980s Oakland. And the troupe routinely earns high praise from professional actors and directors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You don’t go in with the expectation that these young guys are going to do what they do,\" says Michael Torres, chair of the theater department at Oakland's Laney College. He's been a professional stage actor for the past 26 years and works with some of Moreno's former students. \"I like watching the shows because I can hold onto the through line. It’s like watching a show in many other different places that are professional. It’s special, what’s happening there,\" at Oakland Tech, he says. \"It’s not normal.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10140927\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/05/OakTech7.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/05/OakTech7-400x193.jpg\" alt='The play features several choreographed dances.

The group frequently writes its own work, too, such as \"99 Years,\" a play about the history of Oakland Tech, based on interviews with alumni. Moreno thinks of this as a pre-professional program, and makes sure that each performance presents new challenges and takes new risks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I keep saying, this is the one that's going to get me fired,\" she says, laughing. \"No, this is the one! But it hasn't happened yet.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s probably because the program has been so successful -- and not only at Oakland Tech. A few years ago, when Moreno was one of the only drama teachers left in the district, she wrote a grant to train 10 English and history teachers in theater techniques and what she calls \"creative inquiry.\" Known as the Oakland Theatre Arts Initiative, the grant helped integrate theater arts into a handful of classrooms and build the drama program at Edna Brewer Middle School.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They say that creative thought and critical thinking skills are the most lacking right now in education,\" Moreno says. \"And I think theater is a place where that all comes together and you can make use of it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now Moreno spends each morning at the Oakland Unified School District office developing curricula that will bring theater techniques into every classroom in the district. For some students, like Jacob Moore, that kind of opportunity is everything.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10140928\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/05/OakTech9.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2014/05/OakTech9-400x296.jpg\" alt='The cast practices their rendition of the Neil Diamond classic, \"Coming to America.\" (Sara Bernard/KQED)' width=\"400\" height=\"296\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-10140928\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The cast practices their rendition of the Neil Diamond classic, \"Coming to America.\" (Sara Bernard/KQED)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"Before I lived here, when I didn’t have theater, my GPA was below a 1,\" says Moore. \"Then I got into reading and working and learning. That’s what you have to do to be in theater; you have to learn a lot about everything in the play. So I just kinda got into doing work.

I hate that. But when I'm on stage, that doesn't happen. I get nervous, but it's like, I let my character go. It's not me, it's my character.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The benefits of theater also extend beyond the stage -- and the school day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We do breathing exercises for warm-up,\" Moreno says. \"And I had one student one year come and say, 'A guy pulled a gun on me in the bus and I used my breathing techniques and I swear it saved my life.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Literally, as well as figuratively, then, \"I get to witness the saving of student lives in my daily work, which is such a gift,\" she says. \"There’s nothing more than that, really.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

The needle drop, the crackle, the way you can almost hear the music starting before it's really there. Listening to records is a shared experience. And that's exactly what the Oakland Museum of California hopes to celebrate with its new exhibit. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think we're all tired of being alone in front of our computers,” says senior curator Rene de Guzman. “The single iTunes download is a great convenience, but we lose the social aspect of music.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The launch of “Vinyl: The Sound and Culture of Records” is timed to coincide with Record Store Day, an annual celebration of the medium that sends avid collectors to independent sellers around the world to hunt down new releases and rare gems. The exhibit has that same participatory vibe: whole walls framed by stacks of empty black crates, giant beanbags decorated like sound waves and a bunch of working turntables. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I envision is a lot of people spending a lot of time talking to one another, listening to music, exchanging stories and then recommending records to play for one another,” de Guzman says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Sharing Records, Sharing Stories\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A few days before the exhibit opens, David Katznelson and Steve Stevenson meet to dig through crates of each other's favorite records. Both curated crates of records for the exhibit – there are 22 crates in all, put together by different record lovers on different themes. Katznelson is a collector and producer; his crate pays tribute to the Velvet Underground. Stevenson owns 1234Go!

He says his store, which has been open since 2008, has grown by 20 percent or more every year. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I get a lot of people who might have sold all their records and CDs in the year 2000 or whenever they got an iPod, and now after a few iPod crashes or thefts they're looking at it like I need to get my records back, this is crazy!” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to industry tracker Nielsen, vinyl sales shot up by a third this past year – from four and a half million albums to over six million. Now, that's still just a tiny fraction of the U.S. album market – around 2 percent. But Stevenson and other indie retailers say they sell more records than get officially counted, since small shops don't always use Nielsen's system. What's more, records are making it into mainstream culture. Big bands now routinely release new albums on vinyl. And you can pick up a cheap record player at Target. Which, by the way, Stevenson says is just fine. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Art is very important, condition is very important, fidelity is very important,” he says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But I don't want people to forget that these are meant to be listened to.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Life and Art\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The centerpiece of the exhibit is a beautiful sculpture of a bird, crafted from wood and balanced on a stand above a crank, a turntable, and a horn like you'd see on a phonograph. It's by local artist Walter Kitundu. Turn the crank, the record starts, and the bird's wings begin to move up and down. You can speed it up, slow it down, scratch -- whatever you want, just by turning the crank.

The exhibit has that same participatory vibe: whole walls framed by stacks of empty black crates, giant beanbags decorated like sound waves and a bunch of working turntables. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I envision is a lot of people spending a lot of time talking to one another, listening to music, exchanging stories and then recommending records to play for one another,” de Guzman says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Both curated crates of records for the exhibit – there are 22 crates in all, put together by different record lovers on different themes. Katznelson is a collector and producer; his crate pays tribute to the Velvet Underground. Stevenson owns 1234Go!

He says his store, which has been open since 2008, has grown by 20 percent or more every year. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I get a lot of people who might have sold all their records and CDs in the year 2000 or whenever they got an iPod, and now after a few iPod crashes or thefts they're looking at it like I need to get my records back, this is crazy!” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to industry tracker Nielsen, vinyl sales shot up by a third this past year – from four and a half million albums to over six million. Now, that's still just a tiny fraction of the U.S. album market – around 2 percent. But Stevenson and other indie retailers say they sell more records than get officially counted, since small shops don't always use Nielsen's system. What's more, records are making it into mainstream culture. Big bands now routinely release new albums on vinyl. And you can pick up a cheap record player at Target. Which, by the way, Stevenson says is just fine. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Art is very important, condition is very important, fidelity is very important,” he says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But I don't want people to forget that these are meant to be listened to.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Life and Art\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The centerpiece of the exhibit is a beautiful sculpture of a bird, crafted from wood and balanced on a stand above a crank, a turntable, and a horn like you'd see on a phonograph. It's by local artist Walter Kitundu. Turn the crank, the record starts, and the bird's wings begin to move up and down. You can speed it up, slow it down, scratch -- whatever you want, just by turning the crank. Curator Rene De Guzman says to think of this piece as a metaphor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A used record is a connector between people,” he says. “You own it for a moment in time, and then it goes to someone else. And you probably scratched it or wore it down a little, so then you collaborate with other people on leaving a mark on the world.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now this may not be an experience you've ever had.

Now, his untimely death is sparking proposed legislation in Sacramento. We find out how Lee's death has opened a new political battle over the accuracy of transgender people's death certificates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maya Scott-Chung remembers one of the first times she met Lee. He was strutting down a red carpet at the Roxie Theater in San Francisco. Lee was emceeing the Transgender Film Festival, an event he co-founded in 1997.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He commanded the audience in a shimmery black faux fur coat and sunglasses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Christopher was fab-u-lous with a capital F-A-B,” Scott-Chung says. “He always had beautifully shined boots and just an incredible look about him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee made several films about transgender culture, including one about his own life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In “Christopher’s Chronicles,” he explains that he was born female, Kristina. Then in his mid-20s, he started asking his friends to call him Christopher and to refer to him as “he” instead of “she.” The film opens with Lee looking in the bathroom mirror rubbing shaving cream on his chin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I was a little kid, I used to have this plastic razor. It was a straight razor. I used to pretend I was shaving every morning, just like my dad,” he says, rinsing his hands in the sink. “I guess this should have been my first idea that I felt a little different than your normal little girl.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee lived the last two decades of his life as a man. He committed suicide in 2012 when he was 48. His friends were left grieving not just his death, but what happened after his death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They had explained to the coroner that Lee was transgender. They turned over his driver’s license with his sex indicated with a capital “M.” But when the death certificate came back, Christopher was listed as Kristina. Sex: female.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It felt like spitting on his grave,” Scott-Chung says. “When they put RIP on people’s tombstones it’s rest in peace. And I just felt like Christopher’s spirit will not rest in peace with a death certificate that says female.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott-Chung and her husband made their way to the office of California Assemblywoman Toni Atkins, from Lee’s hometown of San Diego. Atkins recently introduced a bill that would establish protocols for filling out death certificates for transgender people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s no statutory or regulatory guidance on whether sex should be listed according to the deceased’s gender identity or the anatomy,” Atkins said at a hearing in Sacramento last month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She explained that only a fraction of transgender people have sex reassignment surgery. It’s very expensive, and most insurance plans won’t cover it. Some people just don't want it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s not uncommon for a transgender person to retain some physical characteristics of the gender assigned to them at birth even though they have transitioned to a new gender identity,” Atkins said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That can leave coroners in a quandary. Christopher Lee was taking testosterone when he died. The Alameda County medical examiner described the body at the autopsy: A short mustache and beard. A receding hairline consistent with male balding. And, female genitalia. That's why the “F” ended up on the death certificate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t have a lot of leeway in that,” says Lt. Riddic Bowers of the Alameda County Coroner’s Bureau. He says a driver’s license is not enough to override anatomy. An updated birth certificate would work, but that requires a court order. And until 2012 getting a court order meant getting surgery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Barring that, we have to rely on the documentation that exists, someone’s existing birth certificate and their correlating anatomical description,” Bowers says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Family opinion is also a factor, and, under current law, next-of-kin has the final word. This is controversial. Many transgender people are estranged from relatives who are uncomfortable with their gender transition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee wasn't in close contact with his family. Maya Scott-Chung says she and her husband were Lee’s chosen family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s important to see once someone dies who actually lives as family and who is legally recognized as family is often different,” Scott-Chung says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Lt. Bowers has to follow the letter of the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If they’re not blood related, then they’re not family,” he says. “Legally, they just have no say.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Atkins bill would change two key things. First, it would require coroners and funeral directors to record a person’s gender identify rather than anatomical sex. Second, if there’s a dispute, a driver’s license or passport would be sufficient legal documentation to trump family opinion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee's father and sister declined to be interviewed for this story. In the end, they asked Lee's friends to settle the rest of his affairs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Scott-Chung, that involves more than organizing a memorial and packing up all his clothes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wore his cowboy boots for a year after he died just trying to come to terms with his death,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For her, that involves changing the law. She says she plans on wearing the boots every time she goes to Sacramento to help get this bill passed, and so other transgender people can be honored in death the way she wishes Lee would have been honored.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The California Report’s intern Matt Levin contributed research for this story.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>More:\u003c/strong> \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2014/04/18/male-in-life-female-in-death-the-story-of-christopher-lees-death-certificate/\" target=\"_blank\">Male in Life, Female in Death: The Story of Christopher Lee's Death Certificate\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Then in his mid-20s, he started asking his friends to call him Christopher and to refer to him as “he” instead of “she.” The film opens with Lee looking in the bathroom mirror rubbing shaving cream on his chin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I was a little kid, I used to have this plastic razor. It was a straight razor. I used to pretend I was shaving every morning, just like my dad,” he says, rinsing his hands in the sink. “I guess this should have been my first idea that I felt a little different than your normal little girl.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee lived the last two decades of his life as a man. He committed suicide in 2012 when he was 48. His friends were left grieving not just his death, but what happened after his death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They had explained to the coroner that Lee was transgender. They turned over his driver’s license with his sex indicated with a capital “M.” But when the death certificate came back, Christopher was listed as Kristina. Sex: female.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It felt like spitting on his grave,” Scott-Chung says. “When they put RIP on people’s tombstones it’s rest in peace. And I just felt like Christopher’s spirit will not rest in peace with a death certificate that says female.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott-Chung and her husband made their way to the office of California Assemblywoman Toni Atkins, from Lee’s hometown of San Diego. Atkins recently introduced a bill that would establish protocols for filling out death certificates for transgender people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s no statutory or regulatory guidance on whether sex should be listed according to the deceased’s gender identity or the anatomy,” Atkins said at a hearing in Sacramento last month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She explained that only a fraction of transgender people have sex reassignment surgery. It’s very expensive, and most insurance plans won’t cover it. Some people just don't want it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s not uncommon for a transgender person to retain some physical characteristics of the gender assigned to them at birth even though they have transitioned to a new gender identity,” Atkins said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That can leave coroners in a quandary. Christopher Lee was taking testosterone when he died. The Alameda County medical examiner described the body at the autopsy: A short mustache and beard. A receding hairline consistent with male balding. And, female genitalia. That's why the “F” ended up on the death certificate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t have a lot of leeway in that,” says Lt. Riddic Bowers of the Alameda County Coroner’s Bureau. He says a driver’s license is not enough to override anatomy. An updated birth certificate would work, but that requires a court order. And until 2012 getting a court order meant getting surgery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Barring that, we have to rely on the documentation that exists, someone’s existing birth certificate and their correlating anatomical description,” Bowers says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Family opinion is also a factor, and, under current law, next-of-kin has the final word. This is controversial. Many transgender people are estranged from relatives who are uncomfortable with their gender transition.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee wasn't in close contact with his family. Maya Scott-Chung says she and her husband were Lee’s chosen family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s important to see once someone dies who actually lives as family and who is legally recognized as family is often different,” Scott-Chung says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Lt. Bowers has to follow the letter of the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If they’re not blood related, then they’re not family,” he says. “Legally, they just have no say.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Atkins bill would change two key things. First, it would require coroners and funeral directors to record a person’s gender identify rather than anatomical sex. Second, if there’s a dispute, a driver’s license or passport would be sufficient legal documentation to trump family opinion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee's father and sister declined to be interviewed for this story. In the end, they asked Lee's friends to settle the rest of his affairs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Scott-Chung, that involves more than organizing a memorial and packing up all his clothes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wore his cowboy boots for a year after he died just trying to come to terms with his death,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For her, that involves changing the law. She says she plans on wearing the boots every time she goes to Sacramento to help get this bill passed, and so other transgender people can be honored in death the way she wishes Lee would have been honored.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The California Report’s intern Matt Levin contributed research for this story.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>More:\u003c/strong> \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/stateofhealth/2014/04/18/male-in-life-female-in-death-the-story-of-christopher-lees-death-certificate/\" target=\"_blank\">Male in Life, Female in Death: The Story of Christopher Lee's Death Certificate\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

A friend since they met at UC San Diego about a decade ago, White has become an essential force on the Southland jazz scene as a bandleader and collaborator with heavyweights like trumpeter Gilbert Castellanos and alto saxophone great Charles McPherson.

Best known for his long-running relationship with alto sax legend Lee Konitz, one of the last jazz masters who came of age during World War II, he’s earned an international reputation as a bassist who can play any role in an ensemble.
