His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

But she captured the interest of a young girl who’d stand silently in the studio doorway to watch. “I asked the teacher’s son about her and he said that she thought I was a ghost, that she’d never seen a woman doing what I was doing, so I had to be magic,” she says. “I thought, if she wants to learn, who will teach her?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13873213\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13873213\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Because she's being displaced from her workspace, Smith is loaning her equipment to Ale'ah Bashir Baaqee, a young metal artist from Oakland.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-768x432.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Because she’s being displaced from her workspace, Smith is loaning her equipment to Ale’ah Bashir Baaqee, a young metal artist from Oakland. \u003ccite>(Sam Lefebvre/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Smith returned from Dakar inspired but stressed; she’d spent most of 2018 without income, and started last year with an illness that prevented her from working for several weeks. “When you work for yourself there’s no unemployment, no sick pay,” she says. Still, Smith found some part-time work teaching at the Crucible (where co-teaching a two-day workshop pays approximately $300).

Because she must vacate her studio by the end of January, Smith is loaning her equipment to Baaqee, a metal artist from Oakland. “I’m letting her borrow all of these hammers,” Smith says in the soon-to-be-empty studio. “This is my favorite hammer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

She first stayed for two months and then, at Sow’s urging, returned for four-and-a-half more months later in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The patriarchal legacy of metalsmithing in Senegal created distance between Smith and the women around the artist village where she worked in Dakar. But she captured the interest of a young girl who’d stand silently in the studio doorway to watch. “I asked the teacher’s son about her and he said that she thought I was a ghost, that she’d never seen a woman doing what I was doing, so I had to be magic,” she says. “I thought, if she wants to learn, who will teach her?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13873213\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13873213\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Because she's being displaced from her workspace, Smith is loaning her equipment to Ale'ah Bashir Baaqee, a young metal artist from Oakland.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-768x432.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/01/is-torch-off.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Because she’s being displaced from her workspace, Smith is loaning her equipment to Ale’ah Bashir Baaqee, a young metal artist from Oakland. \u003ccite>(Sam Lefebvre/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Smith returned from Dakar inspired but stressed; she’d spent most of 2018 without income, and started last year with an illness that prevented her from working for several weeks. “When you work for yourself there’s no unemployment, no sick pay,” she says. Still, Smith found some part-time work teaching at the Crucible (where co-teaching a two-day workshop pays approximately $300). The industrial arts center hosted the first We Wield the Hammer session last summer, and Smith secured the CFP grants to buy materials and pay a teacher, Ale’ah Bashir Baaqee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The second eight-week session of We Wield the Hammer, which Smith plans to expand to Senegal, starts this month with a cohort of six black women and girls between the ages of 14 and 24. Until she can draw a salary from the organization, she plans to use workspace at the Crucible for personal projects. Because she must vacate her studio by the end of January, Smith is loaning her equipment to Baaqee, a metal artist from Oakland. “I’m letting her borrow all of these hammers,” Smith says in the soon-to-be-empty studio. “This is my favorite hammer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The poor have no chance to survive.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Housing Crisis\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Gov. Gavin Newsom has committed $1.75 billion to fund new building projects to tackle California’s housing crisis. In October, he signed various housing bills, including one that capped rent increases and stifled evictions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re living in the wealthiest as well as the poorest state in America,” Newsom said when he signed the bills. “Cost of living. It is the issue that defines more issues than any other issue in this state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 2010 and 2017, the median cost of a home in California doubled; in the Bay Area, it tripled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“About 32% of households in California can afford to buy a median-priced home, which is around $600,000,” said Oscar Wei, a senior economist at the California Association of Realtors. “Compared to 2012, we were at 52% (across the state). In San Francisco and San Mateo only 12% or 13% of residents can afford to buy a median-priced home there.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Francisco, a median-priced home costs around $1.5 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wei said states with a low cost of living or no income tax can tempt people by offering wages that aren’t quite middle class in California, but would put them above average elsewhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In California, to buy a median price home it requires an income of $100,000,” he said. “In Arizona, you can buy a median-priced home with an income of $50-$60,000.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Wei does not expect housing prices to drop the way they did at the end of the last decade, when the housing bubble burst, he does anticipate price drops in the next five to 10 years if the housing crisis isn’t addressed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have been seeing some companies leaving So Cal and the Bay Area,” said Wei. “Toyota and Nissan left Southern California, and home prices might have slowed down but they haven’t dropped really significantly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If the housing affordability issue isn’t addressed in the next five to 10 years, we will see companies starting to move out,” he said. However, he didn’t think enough companies would move out over a short enough period to truly tumble housing prices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“After all,” he said, “California is a good place to live. It’s the cost that is an issue.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>‘The State Pushed Us Out’\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Pat Tollefson, who said her great-great-grandfather, Joseph Fredrick Snyder, was an early settler of Salinas in the 1860s, moved to Washington state with her husband three years ago, after spending her first 60 years in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We love California, but the state pushed us out,” she wrote on Facebook in a message to The Salinas Californian.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The first year [we were in Washington], our Prius California renewal registration was due at a cost of $290, but we transferred the registration to Washington state at a cost of $63,” she said. “That was just one surprise benefit!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tollefson said they found the cost of purchasing a home, as well as utilities, were lower than they had paid in California. The lower cost of living combined with their access to nature has helped lower their stress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salinas realtor Chris Barrera has worked for Windermere Valley Properties for five years. In the last few years, he has seen more and more clients cite cost of living as a main reason for leaving California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He estimated about a quarter of the roughly 20 clients he works with each month felt they could no longer afford California. Most are in the service industry or live on a fixed income, and many are leaving for Texas and Idaho, states with low or no income tax, and a low cost of living.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People are being priced out,” Barrera said. “I have a lot of clients who are selling and they’re just tired of California politics. Monterey County is one of the most expensive places to live in the U.S., and the only other option is to have numerous families living at one property.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>‘A Lot of Anger’\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Those who leave California don’t always leave it behind altogether, though. Communities that sometimes double as support groups have sprung up online for former Californians. Here, they can complain about their former state, or even their new one, while still maintaining that they’re glad they left.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some also say politics, not just taxes, play a role in their decision to leave.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In “CA Exodus and Ex-CAers,” a Facebook group for ex-Californians and those planning to leave, the banner photo is an altered “Now leaving California” sign. It reads: “Was it something we taxed?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Randa Moore, formerly of Santa Rosa\"]‘We were working 10-16 hours a day, seven days a week, every holiday, and were still struggling to buy groceries.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here, a couple hundred members bring up California laws and regulations they find ridiculous or costly, affirming their decision to leave. Mostly, though, they share stories of the exodus taking place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I joined this group so I would at least have others to commiserate with,” said group member Melinda Temblador, who said she left “Commiefornia” because of “the high cost of everything, extreme moral decay and [being] pretty sick of bearing the cost of freeloaders for their free medical, free college, free free free stuff while I slave away staying awake at night wondering how I’m going to pay for my daughter’s college but the illegal next door gets it for free.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She added, “If you sense a lot of anger on my part you would be correct. We absolutely made the best decision to flee. Have no regrets and are actively helping several family members to leave ASAP as well.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other group members echoed Temblador’s sentiments, adding that the state’s liberal bent left them feeling frustrated and isolated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I guess maybe it helps to solidify the fact we are not alone,” said Jonathan English Olmstead, who plans to leave California. “In this state, being a devoted Christian and Republican you feel as though you are the only one with these views.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But not everyone is taking off for cheaper or greener pastures. Some have instead resorted to subletting or moving in with family to meet increased rental prices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Raycheal Jarvis, a native of Marina, in Monterey County, said she and her family, including four children, are living with her in-laws. Jarvis wanted to stay in Marina “where neighbors still look out for one another,” but, she said, commuters to San Jose are snapping up properties at sky-high prices. Jarvis is looking at other options, but so far, it seems the only place she and her family can afford housing is outside of the area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t make enough to afford a home big enough to raise our family,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Kate Cimini is a multimedia journalist for The Californian.

Among the top funding priorities is fighting the surging homeless crisis. The new budget earmarks 750 million dollars in funds to pay for rent and immediate housing assistance for homeless people at the local and state level. That’s in addition to an executive order Newsom signed Wednesday, allowing state land to be made available for emergency homeless shelters.Since taking office last year, the governor has also championed cutting health care costs and prescription drug prices.This year’s budget includes a proposal to create California’s own line of generic drugs by negotiating directly with drug makers. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, politics and government correspondent, KQED\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>U.S.-Iran Conflict Takes a Toll on Iranian Americans\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Southern California is home to hundreds of thousands of people of Iranian descent, the largest concentration in the U.S. and outside of Iran. This past week has been particularly trying for them, beginning with the killing of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani in an airstrike last Friday ordered by President Trump. Iran retaliated this week by firing more than a dozen missiles at two U.S. military bases in Iraq housing American troops. On Wednesday morning, President Trump addressed the nation about the attack, saying that no troops were injured and that a new round of economic sanctions would be imposed on Iran. While war with Iran seems unlikely – for now at least – tension abounds for Iranian Americans, dozens of whom in the past week were detained at airports and other ports of entry where border agents, in some instances, allegedly queried their political and religious beliefs. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shokooh Miry, Iranian American psychologist and former board chair, National Iranian American Council\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dornaz Memarzia, Iranian American community member\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Dominant San Francisco 49ers Reach Playoffs\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tomorrow, the San Francisco 49ers hope to continue their push to the Super Bowl with a victory against the Minnesota Vikings.

These problems — our widespread affordability crisis, expanding homelessness crisis and catastrophic wildfires — have been decades in the making and won’t be fixed overnight,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposal laid out Friday kicks off budget season in California; lawmakers have the next six months to debate and refine Newsom's proposal and must pass a final budget by mid-June.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/GuyMarzorati/status/1215705149022167040?s=20\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Education\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Newsom said it's \"self-evident\" that the state should focus resources on the 23 high-poverty school districts where African American students are disproportionately clustered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Gov. Gavin Newsom\"]'If you wanna support children, you have to support caregivers. If you wanna support parents you have to support children.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor is proposing $900 million to help train and support teachers in the state's high-poverty schools; and $250 million to help reform the special education system.

If you wanna support parents you have to support children,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the governor announced that his wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, has been working with his administration on a $70 million expansion of the state's school nutrition program.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Housing and Homelessness\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Newsom called homelessness the issue that \"defines our time\" and said the state will invest more than $1 billion to help cities and counties tackle the crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier in the week Newsom \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11794599/newsom-seeks-750m-for-homeless-services-and-shelter-in-proposed-budget\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">released part of his proposal on homelessness and housing\u003c/a>, calling for $1.4 billion in spending on a wide range of programs and signing an executive order aimed at getting people on the streets into shelter immediately.
