I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

"headTitle": "News Fix | KQED News",
"content": "\u003cp>Rue Mapp grew up spending her summers playing outside on her family’s ranch in Lake County. But as an adult, she kept finding herself the only African-American on organized hikes. Tired of being “the only one,\" she started \u003ca href=\"http://www.outdoorafro.com\">Outdoor Afro\u003c/a> and found out she wasn’t.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I realized that when you identify all the only ones, and people did identify themselves as such, we were actually quite numerous,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now there are Outdoor Afro chapters across the country. Volunteers like Zoe Polk lead hikes, camping trips and bird walks to help African-Americans reconnect with the outdoors and with each other. The group uses social media, too -- to post resources, tips and photos of black people enjoying the outdoors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mapp is challenging the myth that African-Americans don’t get out in nature. Sure, she says, if you're hiking through Yellowstone or even Yosemite, places far from cities, you don’t see a lot of black people. But if you take a place like Lake Merritt in the heart of downtown Oakland, she says, “It looks like the United Nations. So that’s a classic example of here’s a place that’s right in the middle of where people live, where people work, that they can access, and they’re using it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Heading to Oakland Hills\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a recent Friday evening, 30 people, most of them African- American, headed to the Oakland Hills for a hike.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trip leader Zoe Polk tells them what to expect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If this is your first time with Outdoor Afro, a couple of things to know about us,” she says. “We are not a competitive hiking group. Our purpose is to have community in nature and share with each other. So we’re not going to be leaving anyone behind today!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group starts uphill through the woods, chatting and laughing along the way. The trail soon opens up into rolling grassy hills. There’s Mount Diablo to the east and the sun setting over the Golden Gate Bridge to the west. Polk stops the group by a lupine bush, its purple flowers in bloom. She asks if anyone has read Alice Walker’s \"The Color Purple.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“\u003ca href=\"http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/110038-i-think-it-pisses-god-off-if-you-walk-by\">Is there a famous line in that book that talks about nature\u003c/a>?” she asks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s like the color purple,” shouts one participant, paraphrasing the famous quote. “You just don’t walk past it and not notice it!” Everyone cheers in approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it pissed God off if you walked by the color purple in a field and didn't notice it,\" Polk paraphrases from the book. “We’re going to pass by the color purple. And I invite you to notice it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Harriet Tubman, Outdoorswoman\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>African-Americans have a long history of connecting to nature. Mapp tells her group to think about someone like Harriet Tubman. “She was a wilderness leader,” she says. “She’s someone who led people in the cover of night through the wild. Think about all the skill sets you have to have in order to do that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On this hike, Outdoor Afro is partnering with \u003ca href=\"http://www.girltrek.org\">GirlTrek\u003c/a>, a black women’s walking group, to honor Tubman, the leader of the Underground Railroad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zoe Polk stops the group at a view along the trail.

But as an adult, she kept finding herself the only African-American on organized hikes. Tired of being “the only one,\" she started \u003ca href=\"http://www.outdoorafro.com\">Outdoor Afro\u003c/a> and found out she wasn’t.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I realized that when you identify all the only ones, and people did identify themselves as such, we were actually quite numerous,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now there are Outdoor Afro chapters across the country. Volunteers like Zoe Polk lead hikes, camping trips and bird walks to help African-Americans reconnect with the outdoors and with each other. The group uses social media, too -- to post resources, tips and photos of black people enjoying the outdoors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mapp is challenging the myth that African-Americans don’t get out in nature. Sure, she says, if you're hiking through Yellowstone or even Yosemite, places far from cities, you don’t see a lot of black people. But if you take a place like Lake Merritt in the heart of downtown Oakland, she says, “It looks like the United Nations. So that’s a classic example of here’s a place that’s right in the middle of where people live, where people work, that they can access, and they’re using it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Heading to Oakland Hills\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Our purpose is to have community in nature and share with each other. So we’re not going to be leaving anyone behind today!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group starts uphill through the woods, chatting and laughing along the way. The trail soon opens up into rolling grassy hills. There’s Mount Diablo to the east and the sun setting over the Golden Gate Bridge to the west. Polk stops the group by a lupine bush, its purple flowers in bloom. She asks if anyone has read Alice Walker’s \"The Color Purple.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“\u003ca href=\"http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/110038-i-think-it-pisses-god-off-if-you-walk-by\">Is there a famous line in that book that talks about nature\u003c/a>?” she asks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s like the color purple,” shouts one participant, paraphrasing the famous quote. “You just don’t walk past it and not notice it!” Everyone cheers in approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think it pissed God off if you walked by the color purple in a field and didn't notice it,\" Polk paraphrases from the book. “We’re going to pass by the color purple. And I invite you to notice it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Harriet Tubman, Outdoorswoman\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>African-Americans have a long history of connecting to nature. Mapp tells her group to think about someone like Harriet Tubman. “She was a wilderness leader,” she says. “She’s someone who led people in the cover of night through the wild. Think about all the skill sets you have to have in order to do that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On this hike, Outdoor Afro is partnering with \u003ca href=\"http://www.girltrek.org\">GirlTrek\u003c/a>, a black women’s walking group, to honor Tubman, the leader of the Underground Railroad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zoe Polk stops the group at a view along the trail. She asks everyone to think of one word that represents Tubman. They go around in a circle and share: “Inspiration. Liberation. Courage…”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Polk adds a few words of her own that we don’t normally associate with Tubman: hiker, botanist, astronomer. She reminds everyone that Tubman collected wild plants to treat the underground passengers' illnesses and she used the stars to navigate her way to freedom. “I actually love it when I remember to think of Harriet Tubman when I’m looking up in the sky,” Polk says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Hiking to Heal\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Outdoor Afro has always turned to nature as a tool to connect African-Americans with history and community.

It was devastating,” Bates said. “There’s so many issues that have to be involved to restore that camp.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ferris told the council the city is also working on making improvements at its Echo Lake Camp, some of which have been necessitated by the increased demand on the facility, given the current closure of Tuolumne Camp. The city plans to spend $50,000 in fiscal year 2015-16 to rebuild several cabins, and another $50,000 the following year on leach fields, which are part of the camp’s sewage system. He said the city has recently completed some repairs, too, of the dining hall trellis and lodge deck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Camp event comes to Freight & Salvage\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separately, the Friends of Berkeley Tuolumne Camp is holding a special event April 14 at the Freight & Salvage Coffeehouse at 2020 Addison St.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From the organizers: “The Rim Fire was one of the nation’s worst disasters and one of the worst fires California has ever had. Come see an amazing and powerful presentation, and ask questions about the Rim Fire and its effects on the land we love by the U.S. Forest Service, as they work towards reforesting an area the size of Los Angeles!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The event is set to include rare footage showing camp life in 1948, a slideshow of the camp from this past December and an update from city staff about where things currently stand.

At some point, as we’re farther down the road, we’ll have more of an update on what the insurance is funding and what they’re not funding.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berkeley Mayor Tom Bates congratulated Ferris on the deal, and said much work remains to be done.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I did visit the camp. It was devastating,” Bates said. “There’s so many issues that have to be involved to restore that camp.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ferris told the council the city is also working on making improvements at its Echo Lake Camp, some of which have been necessitated by the increased demand on the facility, given the current closure of Tuolumne Camp. The city plans to spend $50,000 in fiscal year 2015-16 to rebuild several cabins, and another $50,000 the following year on leach fields, which are part of the camp’s sewage system.

For the most part, the material we've been wandering through the past few months -- and will continue perusing for future posts -- seethes with life and color. The challenge is to try to assimilate a meaningful portion of it and do it justice in the retelling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, with some master storytellers working the same local history ground -- one thinks of Gary Kamiya, David Talbot, Rebecca Solnit and Chris Carlsson, for instance, and web projects like \u003ca href=\"http://burritojustice.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Burrito Justice\u003c/a> and the Virtual Museum of the City of San Francisco -- we're a little self-conscious about getting the story right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A big part of that story, of course, is how quickly a landscape we can scarcely imagine today was remade into the metropolis. And In the video here -- Adam Grossberg's work -- we attempt to give a glimpse of that process, from the earliest days of the Gold Rush to this morning's stop-and-go traffic on the 101.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
