"bio": "Lesley McClurg is a health correspondent and fill-in host whose work is regularly rebroadcast on NPR and PBS programs. She’s earned multiple regional Emmy awards, a national and a regional Edward R. Murrow award, and was named Best Beat Reporter by the Association of Health Care Journalists. The Society of Professional Journalists has recognized her work several times, and the Society of Environmental Journalists spotlighted her coverage of California’s historic drought.\r\n\r\nBefore joining KQED in 2016, Lesley covered food and sustainability for Capital Public Radio, environmental issues for Colorado Public Radio, and reported for KUOW and KCTS 9 in Seattle. Away from the newsroom, she loves skiing with her daughter, mountain biking with her partner, and playing with Ollie, the family’s goldendoodle. On deadline, she runs almost entirely on chocolate chips.\r\n\r\n ",

Their walls are covered in photos and postcards of their global adventures. \u003ccite>(Lee Romney/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The 75-year-old Gene Ampon agreed to an interview in August 2021. The Seattle home he’s shared with his life partner for four decades sits atop peaceful Queen Anne Hill. Wind chimes that Ampon collected cover the porch.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He suffered a stroke in 2019, and at the time of the interview he had just completed a round of chemotherapy for cancer in his liver and lungs. His hope in openly sharing his experience, he said, was that “moving forward,” the country and world would have more “enlightened attitudes toward dealing with gay people, especially young gay people.”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ampon was born in the Bay Area in 1946 to a Filipino father and Irish mother, who soon split up. Money was tight and chaos in his home life gave him some freedom to roam. At age 13, he was spending school days at an arcade near San Francisco’s Tenderloin and its thriving gay scene. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“I used to like pinball machines,” he said. “And there were always older men who would say, ‘Oh you need another quarter?’ I said sure, why not?”\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Soon, Ampon was lying about where he was spending the night in order to hang out with other gay teens – and hook up with men for a place to sleep and a free meal. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“We did actually a lot of cuddling,” he said, “and there was some sex.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He’d been picked up for truancy before, so Ampon was on the radar of local police. One day, while he was having lunch at a diner, officers strolled in to question him. He landed in juvenile hall and “it snowballed from there.” He said youth corrections officials told him they didn't want his “homosexuality” to corrupt other kids, so they moved him through a series of youth facilities for nearly five months.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Men in Ampon’s era were \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22066379-criminallawsusedagainstlgbtq\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">often criminalized for being gay\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. They could be charged with “lewd and lascivious behavior” for simply holding hands, kissing in public or dancing in a bar. Undercover cops who posed as potential sex partners entrapped men in public parks and restrooms. Charges included solicitation, loitering, vagrancy and indecent exposure. Oral and anal copulation carried more serious consequences. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But Ampon was a juvenile, so all he had to do to get locked up was skip school and hang around the gay scene. Because back then, a judge could find a teen to be a \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22066368-psychopathicdelinquent\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“psychopathic delinquent”\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> simply for violating social norms. If their parents or guardians agreed, they’d get shipped off to a state facility for an indefinite stay. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">With the perspective of time, Ampon can laugh at the label.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“It kind of sounds like you're little monsters,” he said. “It wasn’t like I’d killed somebody or stole something, but they didn’t really have any idea what to do with gay kids.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11917722\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1294px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11917722\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/YoungGene.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1294\" height=\"1464\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/YoungGene.jpeg 1294w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/YoungGene-800x905.jpeg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/YoungGene-1020x1154.jpeg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/06/YoungGene-160x181.jpeg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1294px) 100vw, 1294px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gene Ampon shortly after his release from Atascadero State Hospital.

Gene Ampon’s life partner, Roger Anderson, obtained a rare copy of this 1965 supplement. It moved all types of so-called 'sexual deviance,' homosexuality included, to the catagory of 'sociopathic personality disturbance,' from the former 'psychopathic personality disorder with pathologic sexuality.' \u003ccite>(Lee Romney/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But if you were gay in 1962, when Ampon got to the hospital, you’d be diagnosed with \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22066383-1965dsm\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“psychopathic personality disorder with pathologic sexuality.” \u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The teens at Atascadero were in the minority, housed with grown men, some of whom were seriously mentally ill and had committed violent crimes. On Ampon’s second day, a group of adult patients sexually assaulted him. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“It was in the utility room, one of the few rooms that didn’t really have a door,” he said. “It’s where the buckets and mops were.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">To reclaim some power, he converted future assaults into transactions – agreeing to sex in exchange for cigarettes and food. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“I guess I was a growing boy and I always wanted more,” he said, “kind of like Oliver Twist.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Atascadero would get excoriated in the radical gay press in the early 1970s for a host of inhumane treatments.

Then the doctor taunted him, “I bet you won’t do that again.” Ampon knew about these treatments, and wrote about them in his prose poem. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He saw the electric shock box wheeling down the hall\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">stopping at someone else’s room; the guards taunting\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">him with the threat, “Your turn next.”\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">A new terror shot through his thoughts as the overhead light \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">flickered while each jolt burned into some unfortunate brain. \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ampon’s age spared him the electroshock. Instead, for more than two years, he got a morning dose of phenobarbital – a barbiturate used to control seizures or, for very short periods, to control anxiety. Psychiatric medication was relatively new but widely used, often with the sole goal of sedating patients. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ampon was also punished with solitary confinement, he said. The longest stint stemmed from “a puppy love” crush. When hospital guards noticed the friendship, they shipped his crush off to prison, and Ampon to a sweltering windowless concrete cell, with nothing but a thin sleeping mat. He spent a month there, lost in thought, composing poems about spiders and doom.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Beyond punishment and pills, \"treatment\" consisted of pressuring Ampon to not be gay. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“I remember this one doctor who was talking about homosexuality,” Ampon recalled with a mischievous smile. “And he said, 'Well, there is a normal homosexual period between 8 and 12 and then beyond that it’s abnormal.' So I piped up and said, ‘Is that a.m. or p.m.?’” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">His humor was a testament to his resilience even then. But Ampon wanted out, and he’d end up trying to play the game, telling his treatment team he wanted to “explore” heterosexual experiences “They thought that was good,” he said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When Gene Ampon turned 18, in mid-1964, he was released. His parents had hardly visited. He was on his own, with no follow-up support. As it happens, he got out just in time. Because “treatment” at Atascadero was about to become even more sadistic. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://mindsitenews.org/2022/06/24/when-gayness-was-a-crime-and-a-mental-illness-one-mans-journey-from-involuntary-confinement-to-pride/\">Read a full-length version of this story at MindSite News\u003c/a>, and learn about a few key people who stepped in to fight on behalf of gay men while they were confined at Atascadero, and as they were released to the community.\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Lee Romney is an independent journalist with a specialty in mental health and criminal justice.

Wind chimes that Ampon collected cover the porch.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He suffered a stroke in 2019, and at the time of the interview he had just completed a round of chemotherapy for cancer in his liver and lungs.

One day, while he was having lunch at a diner, officers strolled in to question him. He landed in juvenile hall and “it snowballed from there.” He said youth corrections officials told him they didn't want his “homosexuality” to corrupt other kids, so they moved him through a series of youth facilities for nearly five months.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Men in Ampon’s era were \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22066379-criminallawsusedagainstlgbtq\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">often criminalized for being gay\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. They could be charged with “lewd and lascivious behavior” for simply holding hands, kissing in public or dancing in a bar.

Gene Ampon’s life partner, Roger Anderson, obtained a rare copy of this 1965 supplement. It moved all types of so-called 'sexual deviance,' homosexuality included, to the catagory of 'sociopathic personality disturbance,' from the former 'psychopathic personality disorder with pathologic sexuality.' \u003ccite>(Lee Romney/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But if you were gay in 1962, when Ampon got to the hospital, you’d be diagnosed with \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22066383-1965dsm\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“psychopathic personality disorder with pathologic sexuality.” \u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The teens at Atascadero were in the minority, housed with grown men, some of whom were seriously mentally ill and had committed violent crimes. On Ampon’s second day, a group of adult patients sexually assaulted him. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“It was in the utility room, one of the few rooms that didn’t really have a door,” he said. “It’s where the buckets and mops were.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">To reclaim some power, he converted future assaults into transactions – agreeing to sex in exchange for cigarettes and food. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“I guess I was a growing boy and I always wanted more,” he said, “kind of like Oliver Twist.” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Atascadero would get excoriated in the radical gay press in the early 1970s for a host of inhumane treatments. One headline picked up nationwide described the facility as a \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22066385-dachau\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“Dachau for Queers.”\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> A review of historical records indicates that by the time those reports were circulating, the worst was over.

He was given ECT in the late 1960s to “cure” his attraction to men. Then the doctor taunted him, “I bet you won’t do that again.” Ampon knew about these treatments, and wrote about them in his prose poem. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">He saw the electric shock box wheeling down the hall\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">stopping at someone else’s room; the guards taunting\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">him with the threat, “Your turn next.”\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">A new terror shot through his thoughts as the overhead light \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">flickered while each jolt burned into some unfortunate brain. \u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ampon’s age spared him the electroshock. Instead, for more than two years, he got a morning dose of phenobarbital – a barbiturate used to control seizures or, for very short periods, to control anxiety. Psychiatric medication was relatively new but widely used, often with the sole goal of sedating patients. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ampon was also punished with solitary confinement, he said. The longest stint stemmed from “a puppy love” crush. When hospital guards noticed the friendship, they shipped his crush off to prison, and Ampon to a sweltering windowless concrete cell, with nothing but a thin sleeping mat. He spent a month there, lost in thought, composing poems about spiders and doom.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Beyond punishment and pills, \"treatment\" consisted of pressuring Ampon to not be gay. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“I remember this one doctor who was talking about homosexuality,” Ampon recalled with a mischievous smile. “And he said, 'Well, there is a normal homosexual period between 8 and 12 and then beyond that it’s abnormal.' So I piped up and said, ‘Is that a.m. or p.m.?’” \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">His humor was a testament to his resilience even then. But Ampon wanted out, and he’d end up trying to play the game, telling his treatment team he wanted to “explore” heterosexual experiences “They thought that was good,” he said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">When Gene Ampon turned 18, in mid-1964, he was released. His parents had hardly visited. He was on his own, with no follow-up support. As it happens, he got out just in time.

And many have been compelled to share their personal experiences with abortion — some for the very first time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KQED’s Lesley McClurg spoke with \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2022/05/29/1101973218/women-share-their-experience-of-getting-an-abortion-before-roe-made-it-legal\">several women who ended their pregnancies before Roe v. Wade\u003c/a>. For many, the memories of their illegal abortions were traumatic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These women included Pearl Lipner, who sought an abortion in 1963 when she was 18 years old and using the birth control pill. For $1,500 in cash, she was given an abortion using the dangerous technique of packing the uterus with gauze, used back then by unskilled abortion providers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If something happened, I was not to go to the hospital because I’d be immediately arrested,” said Lipner. Twenty-four hours later, she was alone and in excruciating pain, and passed out as she began hemorrhaging. Hours later, a friend arranged for a former Vietnam medic to visit her home to give Lipner a blood transfusion — with likely stolen blood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McClurg also spoke with her own mother, Jan, whom she says opened the conversation by saying, “You know, you might not be here today if I hadn’t had an abortion in 1968.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jan McClurg related how after her own illegal abortion in Mexico City, she began bleeding heavily — “I remember just being terrified” — but, like Lipner, didn’t dare go to the hospital for fear of the legal repercussions.

But as Roe is struck down, and California grapples with the reality of a nation with no guaranteed abortion access, we’re bringing their stories to you now:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.carolebumpus.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Carole Bumpus:\u003c/a> \u003c/strong>“When I became pregnant while unmarried and in college, I chose to deliver my baby and give her up for adoption. This was in 1967 and during the Vietnam war. The father of the baby was unwilling to accept responsibility, my own father was an Anglican [Episcopal] priest, and I didn’t want to bring shame to our family. I went far, far away to deliver in a state where I knew no one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Fifteen years later, when I was ending a brutal marriage, I found I was pregnant again. I chose abortion and have never felt one moment of regret. I couldn’t abide staying in the marriage and had two other children to take care of and raise while working two jobs. I wanted to give my living children what energy I had left for them. One of the reasons I went ahead with the abortion was because it was so painful to lose my first baby to adoption. When that sweet child reached the age of 25, she reached out to me and we have been connected ever since — but not without the residual loss of sharing her life before our meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Since then I became a family therapist working with juveniles who ended up in detention. The legal term that was given to many of them was ‘throwaway children’ and were exactly the ones whose parents could not take care of them. This increased my belief that babies who are chosen will have a better life. Our stories do not end with the abortion, but become part of a bigger story.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Forum listener:\u003c/strong> “For me at 29 years old, [abortion] was a difficult choice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But I was single, traveled for work, wanted a child but not without a partner. I did not feel I could be a single mother, and it was important to me to bring a child into a loving family. Without a willing partner, I could not bring a child into that life. I knew I could never have given birth and given the child away for adoption — that would have destroyed me emotionally and mentally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[I’m] now 65 years old, still with the same man, still not married, never had children. It was the right decision at the time and I have never regretted the choice. So grateful for having the choice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Domenica Devine:\u003c/strong> “I was 15 when I got pregnant. I did drugs and drank and had sex with multiple men — boys really. I thought I was so smart, but emotionally I had not a clue. The only smart thing I did was to get an abortion. It was not a decision I took lightly. It was a misery trying to decide what to do. I had plenty of examples of what solo motherhood looked like in my neighborhood and that frightened me. It looked dismal and not what I wanted for myself. Without my high school diploma and no way to support myself, I can’t imagine what my life would have looked like.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I hurt. I remember how much the procedure hurt, too. No anesthesia. I’ve recently had the same procedure, for obviously different reasons, and they knocked me out. I wonder now if the procedure was meant to hurt. As if the physical pain was necessary. I wonder about that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At 17, having moved from home, with my own job and my own life, I was on the pill. And though I was diligent, perhaps I missed one, or I was the 1% breakthrough. I don’t suppose I’ll ever know. But I knew that I was not grown up enough to take on that responsibility. I could barely make rent. I wasn’t doing a great job of taking care of myself. So I had my second abortion. That decision was not easy either, but it was thoughtful, considered and deliberate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think I would have accomplished much had I had children at that age. I got married — 33 years now. Besides my stepson, children were not in the cards for us. My husband and I traveled, lived in a few different cities, and I got the education I wanted. I found my bliss in science and I finally got my doctorate in education. I have had a wonderful life and wouldn’t change a minute. What I have is a life lived fully. Which would not have been, had I not made the decision to have two abortions. I suppose if I had been forced to raise two children without any support, my life might have been all right, but I doubt it. The social safety net for single mothers just doesn’t exist.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Forum listener: \u003c/strong>“When I was 19 in 1991, I became pregnant. I was in my sophomore year in college and I wasn’t even sure which sexual partner I had gotten pregnant with, my boyfriend or my ex-boyfriend. I loved my ex-boyfriend, but he was completely unstable, later diagnosed as bipolar and a heavy cocaine user. I was not even sure that I wanted children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I talked to my mom and she helped me realize I was not ready to be a mother. It was a lifetime commitment. How could I afford a child? I decided to have an abortion. Afterwards, in the recovery room, the girl next to me tried to make small talk, but I told her I couldn’t speak right then. I was thinking about what I had done. I felt slightly sad, but mostly relieved.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I went on to graduate with a master’s degree and have a fulfilling professional life. Additionally, I worked as an abortion counselor at the Knoxville Center for Reproductive Health in Tennessee for four years. I saw so many women with their own personal stories. Some wanted to discuss it, others insisted they didn’t need to speak about their decision. I held the hand of hundreds of women while they were going through the procedure.

And many have been compelled to share their personal experiences with abortion — some for the very first time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KQED’s Lesley McClurg spoke with \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2022/05/29/1101973218/women-share-their-experience-of-getting-an-abortion-before-roe-made-it-legal\">several women who ended their pregnancies before Roe v.

For many, the memories of their illegal abortions were traumatic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These women included Pearl Lipner, who sought an abortion in 1963 when she was 18 years old and using the birth control pill. For $1,500 in cash, she was given an abortion using the dangerous technique of packing the uterus with gauze, used back then by unskilled abortion providers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If something happened, I was not to go to the hospital because I’d be immediately arrested,” said Lipner. Twenty-four hours later, she was alone and in excruciating pain, and passed out as she began hemorrhaging. Hours later, a friend arranged for a former Vietnam medic to visit her home to give Lipner a blood transfusion — with likely stolen blood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>McClurg also spoke with her own mother, Jan, whom she says opened the conversation by saying, “You know, you might not be here today if I hadn’t had an abortion in 1968.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jan McClurg related how after her own illegal abortion in Mexico City, she began bleeding heavily — “I remember just being terrified” — but, like Lipner, didn’t dare go to the hospital for fear of the legal repercussions. She recovered quickly but said, “I go years and don’t even think about it. And then when I do, I still get so emotional.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She told her daughter she has no regrets. “There was no way on Earth that I was prepared for motherhood.

That’s not a reality unless we want to just live with my parents.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2021, only 32% of potential first-time home buyers could afford a median-priced home in Santa Clara County, \u003ca href=\"https://jointventure.org/download-the-2022-index#:~:text=Download%20the%202022%20Silicon%20Valley%20Index&text=Updated%20annually%2C%20it%20is%20a,for%20leadership%20and%20decision%20making\">according to an annual report from Joint Venture Silicon Valley\u003c/a>, a think tank organization based in the South Bay. Over the past few years, Ramos White’s older siblings have moved out of California to find cheaper real estate.

The stall served as a sort of safety net that helped smooth over rough patches when their weekday jobs cut back on hours or expenses went up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I went to San José State. My older brother and older sister went to San José State, and the flea market paid for all of that,” Ramos White said. “Especially during the recession in 2008.

Waking up at dawn, knowing how to pull in customers, haggling to never lose a sale and staying past sunset to clean up — that’s the hustle culture that she says defines the energy of both the market and the families that have made it into a San José landmark.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='More Stories from the South Bay' tag='san-jose']“Being children of immigrants, we know that they came to this country to give us a better life and everything that we do was built on their backs,” she said. “If you need to make money, you need to make money.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She’s inherited this mentality from her parents, but has also incorporated what she’s learned from her own experiences at La Pulga. As she and Russ prepare for potentially letting go of their stall in a couple years, they’re not letting go of their dream of buying a home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says that the hundreds of families who work at the flea market are going to keep hustling to survive in the Bay Area, with or without La Pulga. “People’s backs are going to be up against the wall and they are going to make it happen because that’s all we know how to do,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

She played a major role in helping to establish the park and museum, which honors the women who worked in shipyards during wartime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You’ve probably heard of Betty Reid Soskin. But what you may not know is that she’s also an activist, author, singer/songwriter, and a poet. Soskin’s life has so many chapters. The documentary duo \u003ca href=\"https://kitchensisters.org/\">The Kitchen Sisters\u003c/a> bring us this tribute to Betty – a kind of mixtape of stories that drop in on her life of 100 years, gathered and preserved by producers and archivists over the years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
