"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. 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.",

González, the founder of Latino Outdoors, was on a panel recently, he heard one of the organization’s local leaders explaining how she’d first found the group. She’d typed “outdoor” and “Latino” into Google.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I did that six or seven years ago, that wasn’t \u003cem>there\u003c/em>,” González says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s the whole reason González created Latino Outdoors in 2013: to fill a need. According to its mission statement, the organization wants to \u003ca href=\"https://latinooutdoors.org/about-us/\">create a space\u003c/a> in which “all Latino communities enjoy nature as a safe, inclusive, and welcoming place.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their work includes the provision of inclusive programs and resources for those camping for the first time, as well as for those with more experience. It also furthers understanding of ecological history, alongside human history.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Nature is essential,” says González. “We really need to see it as a necessity rather than just a nicety.” He’s now a consultant and advisor, serving on different boards and working to increase equitable access for communities of color to nature and the outdoors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And while he and his colleagues have been advocating in this space for years, it’s a wider issue that recently made headlines when the executive director of the Sierra Club, Michael Brune, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11830300/sierra-club-apologizes-for-founder-john-muirs-racist-views\">apologized for the racist views\u003c/a> perpetuated by the organization’s founder: iconic environmentalist John Muir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11793084\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11793084\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/RS40604_GettyImages-177068762-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1281\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/RS40604_GettyImages-177068762-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/RS40604_GettyImages-177068762-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/RS40604_GettyImages-177068762-qut-800x534.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/RS40604_GettyImages-177068762-qut-1020x681.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/RS40604_GettyImages-177068762-qut-1200x801.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">How can outdoor spaces like Muir Woods be made more welcoming spaces for communities of color? \u003ccite>(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>A Natural Reckoning\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Muir had, wrote Brune in a letter on the Sierra Club’s website, made “derogatory comments about Black people and Indigenous peoples that drew on deeply harmful racist stereotypes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Muir’s words on the environment and nature can be found on gift shop paraphernalia around the U.S. National Parks network.

We have to look at the whole person and decide for ourselves what that person has contributed to and what they have taken \u003cem>away\u003c/em> from, in our social movements.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2018, Mendoza wrote \u003ca href=\"https://baynature.org/2018/11/27/feeling-like-an-outsider-in-an-outside-world/\">an online essay\u003c/a> about often feeling “like an outsider in the outdoors world.” He felt privileged, he wrote, to be part of an inclusion movement that was “shifting the narrative, helping to remove exclusionary barriers, and conserving and protecting these beautiful open spaces that we can all enjoy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mendoza applauds others currently doing important work to confront some of the racist history within organizations: like Teresa Baker, co-founder of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.diversifyoutdoors.com/about-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Outdoor CEO Diversity Pledge\u003c/a> , which \u003ca href=\"https://www.insolidarityproject.com/the-pledge\">aims to connect\u003c/a> “leading outdoor brands with inclusion advocates to advance representation for people of color across the industry.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s also folks like Corinna Gould working to counteract the structures of the past.

Mexía contributed greatly to the fields of conservation and environmentalism, but people aren’t taught about her, says José G. González.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is not the history that gets shared when we learn about conservation — because we idolize John Muir so much,” González said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s about “unearthing our conservation \u003cem>cultura,\u003c/em>” he says: “acknowledging that while so much of this is ‘new,’ it’s rooted in the work of a lot of other organizations and individuals throughout our history that have been buried, excluded, and ignored.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Nature as Essential\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Spending time in nature has clear, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/50949/suffering-from-nature-deficit-disorder-try-forest-bathing\">proven benefits\u003c/a> for physical \u003cem>and\u003c/em> mental health. And it’s especially crucial to be able to access nature during the COVID-19 pandemic, says González.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Nature is health,” he confirms. “It supports our mental cognitive health, our emotional health. For some people, it’s a spiritual connection as well.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fact that the coronavirus crisis has amplified existing social inequities means it’s even more crucial to see regular time in nature as “part of well-being and a healthy lifestyle,” says González. “When we close parks, or when we already have access issues, that only gets amplified — especially for Black and Indigenous communities of color who already may be facing some lack of access.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>González emphasizes the need for people in the United States to regard nature and its associated access issues as a \u003cem>public system\u003c/em>: the same way we talk about public education, or public health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For me, the public land component, the nature component — it’s essential,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Resource: Inclusive Environmental Groups\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>There are several organizations working nationally and locally to further diversity and inclusion outdoors, and to make natural spaces welcoming for everyone.

González.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is not the history that gets shared when we learn about conservation — because we idolize John Muir so much,” González said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s about “unearthing our conservation \u003cem>cultura,\u003c/em>” he says: “acknowledging that while so much of this is ‘new,’ it’s rooted in the work of a lot of other organizations and individuals throughout our history that have been buried, excluded, and ignored.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Nature as Essential\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Spending time in nature has clear, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/50949/suffering-from-nature-deficit-disorder-try-forest-bathing\">proven benefits\u003c/a> for physical \u003cem>and\u003c/em> mental health. And it’s especially crucial to be able to access nature during the COVID-19 pandemic, says González.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Nature is health,” he confirms. “It supports our mental cognitive health, our emotional health. For some people, it’s a spiritual connection as well.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The fact that the coronavirus crisis has amplified existing social inequities means it’s even more crucial to see regular time in nature as “part of well-being and a healthy lifestyle,” says González. “When we close parks, or when we already have access issues, that only gets amplified — especially for Black and Indigenous communities of color who already may be facing some lack of access.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>González emphasizes the need for people in the United States to regard nature and its associated access issues as a \u003cem>public system\u003c/em>: the same way we talk about public education, or public health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For me, the public land component, the nature component — it’s essential,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Resource: Inclusive Environmental Groups\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>There are several organizations working nationally and locally to further diversity and inclusion outdoors, and to make natural spaces welcoming for everyone.

Democrats on Capitol Hill are pushing for a $3 trillion relief package passed in the House of Representatives in May that would include aid to states like California facing massive budget deficits.

Since then, the story of how vegan food businesses are faring today has become one that’s very much aligned with the fate of \u003cem>most\u003c/em> small, local restaurants during COVID-19 times.

Plus, they’re staying safer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If I got my job back, then I would have to weigh things, you know, and say, ‘OK, well, do I risk getting sick and getting my family sick for a job that probably won’t pay as much as before?’ ” Morgan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then there’s navigating all the new health and safety restrictions, such as limiting the seating capacity to allow for physical distancing. Morgan said Wildseed has applied for a permit to put in extra outdoor seating. But even with the additional outdoor seating, they’ll still be operating at around 30% capacity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s only so long that it makes sense to carry on that way, and many Bay Area counties have put reopening plans on hold for indoor dining. Given all the variables, Morgan said it’s hard to predict what it will take to reopen properly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve made plans, but, you know, usually we scratch those plans and restart,” Morgan said. “There could be something tomorrow, like, ‘You guys gotta close back again.’ I’m really hoping that’s not the case, because that would be very devastating.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Getting Creative in Order to Survive\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With profits disappearing and things being so unpredictable right now, restaurants are having to get creative if they want to survive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Takeout has obviously taken on a much larger role in restaurants’ core business as a result of the pandemic. That’s true for many high-end restaurants that would never have dreamed of boxing up their fancy dishes in the past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trend towards takeout means adjusting — not everything travels well in a box — and figuring out more efficient ways to work in the kitchen so restaurants can meet the demand for takeout as well as serve customers on-site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With people preferring to eat at home, delivery services like \u003ca href=\"https://www.doordash.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DoorDash\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.grubhub.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Grubhub\u003c/a> are also becoming a must for restaurants, even though several owners interviewed for this story complained about the high fees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then there are the new advances in technology, which allow diners to do things like order meals from their tables using their phones. Wildseed’s Morgan said these systems appeal to restaurants because they reduce labor costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And maybe for the guests, too, right, to feel comfortable,” he added. “They want to limit the amount of interaction they have with another person at this time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he’s wary of going with the technology because he said human interaction is still a key part of good hospitality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the big problems with this whole COVID-19 era is that we are going to lose a lot of human elements to everything that we do,” Morgan said. “I have passion for hospitality.

That’s true for many high-end restaurants that would never have dreamed of boxing up their fancy dishes in the past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The trend towards takeout means adjusting — not everything travels well in a box — and figuring out more efficient ways to work in the kitchen so restaurants can meet the demand for takeout as well as serve customers on-site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With people preferring to eat at home, delivery services like \u003ca href=\"https://www.doordash.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DoorDash\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.grubhub.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Grubhub\u003c/a> are also becoming a must for restaurants, even though several owners interviewed for this story complained about the high fees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then there are the new advances in technology, which allow diners to do things like order meals from their tables using their phones. Wildseed’s Morgan said these systems appeal to restaurants because they reduce labor costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And maybe for the guests, too, right, to feel comfortable,” he added. “They want to limit the amount of interaction they have with another person at this time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he’s wary of going with the technology because he said human interaction is still a key part of good hospitality.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the big problems with this whole COVID-19 era is that we are going to lose a lot of human elements to everything that we do,” Morgan said. “I have passion for hospitality.

So their overhead is low. And the chef said business has been booming since the stay-at-home orders went into place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m making a good amount of money,” they said. “I’m profiting more than I thought I would.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aguilar is proud of the fact that small, niche businesses like The Presumptuous Pepita are building community, even in the middle of a global pandemic. During the recent Black Lives Matter protests, Aguilar said they delivered free meals to protesters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A lot of small businesses like myself, and other vegan small businesses, are doing the work of supporting protesters who are on the front lines,” they said. “We’re feeding compassionately and giving the best that we can right now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

San Francisco was generating about $1.7 million a year from those fees, which went into an inmate welfare fund — one that Stuhldreher hopes will now receive ongoing support through the city's general fund.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The idea is that those services should be supported in the same way we pay for everything else, and not on the backs of incarcerated people and their families,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cost of phone calls in jail was initially halved following Breed's budget proposal last year, with commissary markups subsequently phased out. Since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, inmates have been able to make about 60 minutes of free calls a week. And beginning August 1, all calls will be free.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The change is part of a growing trend in San Francisco and other, mostly progressive jurisdictions to reduce prohibitive fees that disproportionately affect low-income people of color. In 2018, the county eliminated administrative fees charged to people in the criminal justice system, writing off $32 million in debt owed by 21,000 people. And in 2014, the Sheriff’s Department allowed inmates to call their lawyers for free.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco follows New York City, which in 2018 became \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2019/05/01/us/free-calls-from-jail-nyc-trnd/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the first major city\u003c/a> to pass legislation making phone calls free from jail, a measure it put into effect last year.

San Francisco was generating about $1.7 million a year from those fees, which went into an inmate welfare fund — one that Stuhldreher hopes will now receive ongoing support through the city's general fund.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The idea is that those services should be supported in the same way we pay for everything else, and not on the backs of incarcerated people and their families,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The cost of phone calls in jail was initially halved following Breed's budget proposal last year, with commissary markups subsequently phased out. Since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, inmates have been able to make about 60 minutes of free calls a week. And beginning August 1, all calls will be free.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The change is part of a growing trend in San Francisco and other, mostly progressive jurisdictions to reduce prohibitive fees that disproportionately affect low-income people of color. In 2018, the county eliminated administrative fees charged to people in the criminal justice system, writing off $32 million in debt owed by 21,000 people. And in 2014, the Sheriff’s Department allowed inmates to call their lawyers for free.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Even still, that position merely reviews the department’s internal investigations and lacks any real enforcement power, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The IPA has no authority to make findings that are binding on the department,” Cordell said, adding that amending the city’s charter would be the only way to effectively change the position. “While reforms of the SJPD will help keep the public safe from the police use of excessive force, the culture of the department is so infected with systemic racism that reforms are inefficient.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>CORRECTIONS\u003c/strong>: The original version of this story misstated the following details: \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cem>There are 62 community service officers on the SJPD, not 72. Ten more will soon be added to the department through a reallocation of $1.4 million from the police overtime budget.\u003c/em>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cem>One of the policing units that activists want to dismantle is the Mayor’s Gang Prevention Task Force, not the Mayor’s Youth Gang Task Force, as previously stated.\u003c/em>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cem>The City Council will vote on the language for the independent police auditor ballot measure in late July, not November.
