That’s how Afghan Premier FC — then known as Afghan Soccer Club — was born in 1991. The team travelled extensively around the world playing against other clubs in the Afghan diaspora, but it wouldn’t be until 2024 that Afghan Premier FC joined a semi-professional league in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The team is not just open to Afghan players,” said Mojaddedi. “It’s open to diversity, no matter your race, culture, background, or religion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, the team joined the \u003ca href=\"https://www.theleaguefc.com/our-clubs-west\">League for Clubs\u003c/a> — and while Mojaddedi is excited about playing against teams from all over the state, he points out that the team relies heavily on its community to survive. “We try to raise funds from local sponsors as much as we can, from donations, from friends, family,” he said, “because most players are college students.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Afghan Premier’s home field is at Fremont’s Ohlone College, and while their league’s season began earlier, the team postponed their games till the first week of April to accommodate the players observing the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12073604/2026-ramadan-mubarak-where-to-find-iftar-suhoor-san-francisco-bay-area\">holy month of Ramadan\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the team advanced to the semifinals in this season’s playoffs, it fell against Roseville’s Iron Rose FC on June 27.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>El Farolito SC\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>If this team’s name sounds familiar to you, that’s because, yes: it’s named after the longstanding San Francisco-based taquería chain El Farolito.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The restaurant’s founder, Salvador López, started the team back in 1985, and players sport a bright yellow and blue soccer kit — the same color palette you’ll see in any of the El Farolito taquerías. The team competes in the semi-professional National Premier Soccer League and features many players with previous experience at the professional level in Latin America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The people who are behind the taquerías and everybody who’s part of the soccer team, we’re a big family,” said Santiago López, who now leads the team after his father’s passing in 2021. “We have a big responsibility representing this name and the Mission District.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12076742\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12076742\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/ElFarolitoSoccerGetty.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1334\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/ElFarolitoSoccerGetty.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/ElFarolitoSoccerGetty-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/03/ElFarolitoSoccerGetty-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ramón Córdoba, #4 of El Farolito, huddles with his teammates in the locker room before a 2025 U.S. Open Cup Third Round game against Sacramento Republic at Heart Health Park on April 16, 2025, in Sacramento, California. \u003ccite>(Doug Zimmerman/ISI Photos/USSF/Getty Images for USSF)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>El Farolito made it all the way to the NPSL National Championship final last year but lost 3-2 to Hickory FC from North Carolina.

The move comes as federal funding cuts have worsened budgets for the city and families alike, and alongside several progressive campaigns to boost affordability in every aspect of life, from housing production to groceries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A public bank would open the doors to build an engine for affordable housing, a lifeline for struggling small businesses and the financial backbone for our climate goals,” Supervisor Chyanne Chen said. “Let us use every tool at our disposal to keep the city affordable and to drive an economic recovery that leaves no one behind.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The legislation passed on Tuesday sets up the mission and structure for the public bank, including outlining how it would begin with focusing on affordable housing, green energy and small businesses.

Peña Lopez was deported to Mexico after being taken into ICE custody outside their home in February 2025, leaving his wife and young daughter in the Bay Area. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In a federal civil rights lawsuit filed Monday, his lawyers say the arrest, on Feb. 21, 2025, led to “a cascade of harms,” including lasting trauma for Peña and their daughter, who witnessed it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By law, the complaint said, ICE “bears responsibility for the safety and well-being of individuals” it detains. Yet court records indicate the arrest triggered a heart attack and stroke. And the lawsuit said ICE and private prison contractors failed to get Peña López critical follow-up care, including an urgent neurological workup and physical therapy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit also alleges that staff at both facilities where he was held — Golden State Annex and California City Detention Facility, both in Kern County — denied him disability accommodations, such as glasses and hearing aids, as required by law.[aside postID=news_12086891 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/06/BirthrightCitizenshipAP.jpg']In one example cited in the complaint, the private prison staff at Golden State Annex allegedly assigned Peña López to a top bunk: “Ulises’s weakness and numbness on the right side of his body prevented him from safely climbing to a top bunk. He asked detention staff to reassign him to a bottom bunk but was told that they could not make that change.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit seeks unspecified monetary damages to compensate Peña López and his family and to punish the government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement emailed to KQED, an unnamed Homeland Security spokesperson said ICE arrested Peña López “during targeted operations.” It said “he resisted multiple lawful commands made by ICE officers,” but it didn’t address the lawsuit’s allegations that he was beaten. At the time of the arrest, an ICE spokesman \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12028303/ice-arrest-left-bay-area-man-hospitalized-struggling-breathe-attorney-says\">told KQED\u003c/a> the allegation that officers beat Peña López was “absolutely inaccurate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ICE statement said, “Any claims of subprime medical care at ICE facilities is FALSE,” and reiterated boilerplate language asserting that the agency provides comprehensive care that “for many illegal aliens … is the best healthcare they have received their entire lives.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Laura Murchie, an attorney with Disability Law United and a member of Peña López’s legal team, disputes that. She said his health worsened in detention because he did not get the medical care he needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>As arrests spike, advocates say detention conditions are dangerous\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Peña López entered the U.S. illegally in 2013, when he was 18. He said he was unaware that ICE had an expedited removal order from that time, allowing for a fast-track deportation. He had four misdemeanor convictions, though his immigration lawyer, Priya Patel, noted that none involved physical violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lawyers say what happened to Peña López in the early weeks of the second Trump administration was a sign of things to come, with \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2025/10/13/nx-s1-5566785/ice-dhs-immigration-tactics-more-violent\">violent, even fatal, immigration raids \u003c/a>rolling out in cities like Los Angeles, Chicago and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12077656/how-a-bay-area-attorney-aims-to-hold-us-agents-accountable-for-violence-in-minneapolis\">Minneapolis\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s just this tenor of impunity that ICE officers have, that’s letting them get away with acting worse more often,” Murchie said. “More people are getting swept up into their impunity and violence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12074725\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1760px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-12074725 size-full\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/ice-badge-69a05cdd559c5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1760\" height=\"1174\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/ice-badge-69a05cdd559c5.jpg 1760w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/ice-badge-69a05cdd559c5-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/ice-badge-69a05cdd559c5-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1760px) 100vw, 1760px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A federal agent wears an Immigration and Customs Enforcement badge on June 10, 2025. \u003ccite>(AP Photo/Yuki Iwamura, File)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Nearly 400,000 people were arrested by ICE last year, \u003ca href=\"https://www.migrationpolicy.org/article/trump-2-immigration-1st-year\">more than four times\u003c/a> as many as in 2024.

The family has tried to stay connected over video calls, with Peña López reading Emily a bedtime story and saying a nightly prayer with her. They even invented a version of hide-and-seek.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She’d leave the phone on the bed and run off to hide,” he said. “Meanwhile, she’d be talking to me, saying I had to find her. And even though I couldn’t see her, when I told her I spotted her, she’d scream with excitement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But lately his internet connection in Mexico has been so poor that even phone calls are often impossible, leaving them all feeling frustrated and sad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Peña recently decided to give up the Sunnyvale apartment she and her husband had shared. For months, her daughter has been living with her parents near Chico because Peña couldn’t find child care to match her 13-hour shifts at a dialysis clinic. And every week, she drives hours to spend days off with Emily. But the strain has become too much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I decided it would be best for me to get a transfer through my job to a clinic closer to my parents, so that I can be with my daughter every day,” she said. “Rent’s a lot cheaper over there, too.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12074622\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12074622\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/260219-SUNNYVALEDEPORTED-12-BL-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/260219-SUNNYVALEDEPORTED-12-BL-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/260219-SUNNYVALEDEPORTED-12-BL-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2026/02/260219-SUNNYVALEDEPORTED-12-BL-KQED-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Aby Peña holds a photo of herself and her husband, Ulises Peña Lopez, at her home in Sunnyvale on Feb. 19, 2026.

On Our Watch brings listeners into the rooms where officers are questioned and witnesses are interrogated to find out who this system is really protecting. Is it the officers, or the public they've sworn to serve?",
