"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.",

A later phase might extend the gondola to the island of Alameda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The architect responsible for the entire project is Bjarke Ingels, whose company BIG — the \u003ca href=\"https://big.dk/#projects\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bjarke Ingels Group — is based\u003c/a> in New York and his native Denmark. He’s also working on the \u003ca href=\"https://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/bjarke-ingels-group-google-campus-in-sunnyvale-california\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">new Google campus in Sunnyvale\u003c/a>. KQED’s Nina Thorsen spoke with Ingels and started by asking him how he would try to prevent the new ballpark he’s designing from feeling out of date in another 40 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This interview from Jan. 23, 2019, has been edited for brevity and clarity.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bjarke Ingels:\u003c/strong> Well, I think actually there is only one way that you can make a building last forever, and that is to design it in such a way that it will remain relevant and loved by the people using it. I had an epiphany some years ago. I went to Kurdistan, in the north of Iraq, to the sort of cradle of civilization. I went into a village, and I went to a synagogue that was 2,575 years old. It was ruined. There were holes in the roof. It was raining. But I noticed that there was metalwork on the walls. It was rusting away. But it was still there. So I asked, when did they stop using this as a synagogue? And he said in the mid-1950s, because the state of Israel had opened, and all the Jews living in that village moved away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So that means that the synagogue had been there for two-and-a-half thousand years, perfectly functioning, in a great state of repair, and then just in 50 years it turns into a ruin, because the moment it stopped being relevant to the community, it fell into ruin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So I think in that sense, what we’re trying to do with the new master plan at the Howard Terminal is to create a ballpark that is not like a big giant elephant in a sea of parking, but actually the green heart, the accessible and open heart of a new community. And here, at the Coliseum site, we’re actually trying to preserve the history and the heritage. So we are actually leaving the lower tiers and the baseball field itself, almost as a Roman ruin, so that five years into the future we would probably be sitting in the middle of a 50-acre green park, with rolling hills that will open up the creeks that are right now piped underneath the parking lot, to become real water elements with green sloping sides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then you’ll have this amphitheater, which are the old tiers of the park, looking at a baseball field, where the kids can run around and play in the park and play baseball on the same turf that their historical heroes were playing on a decade before. So in that sense, I think what we’re trying to do with a new site is really to make something that will remain relevant to the people of Oakland because it will be rooted in Oakland. And then also with this site (the Coliseum), to transform it into something that actually preserves and celebrates its past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nina Thorsen:\u003c/strong> One of the things you’re known for is thinking about sustainability not as a punishment, not as something you have to do because it’s good for you. And it sounds to me like a lot of aspects of this concept for both these sites have to do with trying to make sustainability that’s joyous?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingels:\u003c/strong> Yeah, we’ve coined the term “hedonistic sustainability” to remind people that sustainable cities and buildings can actually be more enjoyable than the opposite. And I think the first time where I really learned that was actually our first project ever — 17 years ago we did the \u003ca href=\"https://www.archdaily.com/11216/copenhagen-harbour-bath-plot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Copenhagen Harbour Bath\u003c/a>. The port of Copenhagen has become so clean that you can swim in it, so you don’t have to sit in your car for hours to get to the beach. You can jump in the port in the middle of the city. That means that a clean port is not only good for the fish, it’s actually amazing for the citizens of that city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you go to the Oakland Coliseum site today, you could think that the “park” in ballpark means “park-ing,” because it’s really a sea of asphalt, as far as you can see from where we’re sitting here. When you go to the ballpark at the Howard Terminal in the future, you’ll actually be able to see the baseball field itself, the turf. But also the entire perimeter of the ballpark is literally going to be a park where on non-game days everybody’s invited to walk and enjoy the greenery, the cafes, the restaurants and the view of the surrounding neighborhood. So in that sense literally bringing the park back in ballpark.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thorsen:\u003c/strong> Both here at the Coliseum and at Howard Terminal we’re dealing with waterfront. We’re dealing with the challenges of sea-level rise and climate change, and also more particularly at Howard Terminal there’s a lot of potential groundwater contamination. It’s been an industrial site, it’s near the old Army base. How is your design addressing these issues and trying to work to remediate things?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingels:\u003c/strong> Well, specifically, at the Coliseum site we are creating what we call resilient park landscapes, reusing some of the demolition of the upper tiers of the Oakland A’s stadium, as well as some of the excavation that necessarily goes into a project like this to actually create hills — rolling hills — landscapes to elevate the ground to above the 100-year storm levels, which is roughly 7 meters, more than 20 feet. At the Howard Terminal, we’re going to conduct much more specific investigations of the ground and the water conditions. But our experience is actually that, for instance in Copenhagen, just by making investments in water drainage, instead of just letting all the water wash from the docks into the harbor, but to take it into the sewage system instead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In less than a decade, suddenly the water became so clean that you could swim in it. And in a similar way, I feel fairly confident the transformation of Howard Terminal will help accelerate the cleanliness of the Port of Oakland probably in the near future to make it enjoyable and even swimmable.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Everyone at the Superdome knew it was a penalty. Everyone, that is, except two officials who were staring right at it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their flags stayed tucked in their pockets, forcing the Saints to settle for Wil Lutz’s 31-yard field goal that made it 23-20 with 1:41 left in regulation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Came to the sideline, looked at the football gods and was like, ‘Thank you,’” Robey-Coleman said. “I got away with one tonight.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the no-call, Goff had enough time to get the Rams in position for Zuerlein’s tying field goal, a 48-yarder with 15 seconds remaining.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New Orleans won the coin toss and got the ball first in overtime. But, with Dante Fowler Jr. in his face and striking his arm, Brees fluttered up a pass that was picked off by John Johnson III, who was able to hang on to the interception while stumbling backward. Johnson hopped up and celebrated by doing the “Choppa Style” dance popularized by New Orleans rapper Choppa, whose namesake song had become a Saints’ rallying cry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rams weren’t able to do much offensively, but it didn’t matter. Zuerlein booted through the winning field goal from just inside midfield with plenty of room to spare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Whether we go through some adversity or we experience some success, we do not let that change us or affect us,” Zuerlein said “We just keep on keeping on.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was the first home playoff loss for the Saints with Brees and coach Sean Payton, who had been 6-0 at the Superdome since their pairing began in 2006.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This one really hurt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the pass interference penalty had been called, the Saints could’ve run most of the time off the clock to set up a winning field goal from chip-shot range.

Everyone at the Superdome knew it was a penalty. Everyone, that is, except two officials who were staring right at it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Their flags stayed tucked in their pockets, forcing the Saints to settle for Wil Lutz’s 31-yard field goal that made it 23-20 with 1:41 left in regulation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Came to the sideline, looked at the football gods and was like, ‘Thank you,’” Robey-Coleman said. “I got away with one tonight.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the no-call, Goff had enough time to get the Rams in position for Zuerlein’s tying field goal, a 48-yarder with 15 seconds remaining.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New Orleans won the coin toss and got the ball first in overtime. But, with Dante Fowler Jr. in his face and striking his arm, Brees fluttered up a pass that was picked off by John Johnson III, who was able to hang on to the interception while stumbling backward. Johnson hopped up and celebrated by doing the “Choppa Style” dance popularized by New Orleans rapper Choppa, whose namesake song had become a Saints’ rallying cry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rams weren’t able to do much offensively, but it didn’t matter. Zuerlein booted through the winning field goal from just inside midfield with plenty of room to spare.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Whether we go through some adversity or we experience some success, we do not let that change us or affect us,” Zuerlein said “We just keep on keeping on.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was the first home playoff loss for the Saints with Brees and coach Sean Payton, who had been 6-0 at the Superdome since their pairing began in 2006.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This one really hurt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the pass interference penalty had been called, the Saints could’ve run most of the time off the clock to set up a winning field goal from chip-shot range. A replay was shown over and over on the Superdome’s giant video monitors, prompting some fans to toss trash on the field.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Being that it happened right there in front of the person who would be the one to make the call, and everyone in the stands saw it, everyone watching at home on TV saw it, that makes it even more difficult to take,” Brees said. “Because of this, I’m sure there will be a lot of talk about reviewing penalties, perhaps game-changing penalties.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Rams (15-3) will be appearing in its first Super Bowl since the 2001 season, when the “Greatest Show on Turf” was still in St. Louis.

And there appear to be lots of them in certain places underwater — right next to coastal golf courses. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two years ago, a 16-year old diver named Alex Weber was swimming off Pebble Beach along the Pacific near Carmel, Calif. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My dad raised me underwater,” says Weber, and she means it. She’s a free diver: no scuba tanks; she just holds her breath. She was diving in a small cove and looked down and saw something weird. “You couldn’t see the sand,” she recalls, still sounding incredulous. “It was completely white.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White with golf balls. “You looked down and you’re like, ‘What are you doing here?’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There were thousands of them. “It felt like a shot to the heart,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She was offended. Right then, she decided to haul them up. Thus began a Sisyphean task that went on for months: She and her father would haul hundreds of pounds of them up, and then of course more golfers would hit more into the ocean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She took what she and her father collected back home. “I had all of these golf balls in the garage,” she says. “And they stank.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then she heard about a Stanford University scientist, \u003ca href=\"https://matthewsavocaecology.weebly.com/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Matt Savoca\u003c/a>, who studied plastic waste in the ocean. She emailed him, and he came to look at her collection.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Fifty thousand golf balls, just sitting in the garage,” she says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Savoca was impressed. Weber recalls that he turned to her and said, ” ‘You should write a paper about this,’ and I was like, ‘Matt, I’m 16 years old. I don’t know how to write a scientific paper!’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said he would help, which meant diving with her. Not easy. “The oceans off California are actually quite cold, so you suit up in a pretty thick wetsuit,” he says. “It’s incredibly physically demanding.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They took kayaks out to ferry the golf balls back. “Once you recover many, many golf balls, you put them on the kayak,” he explains. Adds Weber: “We’ll have the kayaks so filled with plastic that we’ll end up just having to tow the kayaks — we’ll have to swim (them) to shore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are sharks in the water there, but Savoca says that wasn’t the real threat. “When we were out there,” he says, “We’d hear, ‘plink, plink,’ and we’d look up on the hill and there’d be golf balls flying in off the course right into the ocean where we were doing collections.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the aerial barrage, they kept at it, says Weber. “Whenever we had good conditions, we were able to pull out between, like, 500 to 5,000 golf balls,” she says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over two years, they found more than 50,000 golf balls. The source: five golf courses. Two along the coastline, and three up the Carmel River — those golf balls rolled underwater down the river to the ocean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the journal \u003cem>Marine Pollution Bulletin,\u003c/em> the team notes that golf balls are coated with a thin polyurethane shell that degrades over time. They also contain zinc compounds that are toxic. Savoca points out that the surf and currents act like a rock grinder and break down the golf balls. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While chemicals from 50,000 or so golf balls will have only a small effect on the ocean, Savoca says they do degrade into \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2018/08/20/636845604/beer-drinking-water-and-fish-tiny-plastic-is-everywhere\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">microplastic pieces\u003c/a> that marine animals could eat. The team also notes that there are lots of coastal golf courses around the world, so this may go beyond California. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alex Weber, now 18 and a published author in a scientific journal, plans to apply to university to study marine science. In the meantime, she is still collecting, and keeping up her\u003ca href=\"https://www.theplasticpick-up.org\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> website\u003c/a>. She says it is too bad the golf balls sink. If they floated, people would be shocked and outraged. “If a person could see what we see underwater,” she says, “it would not be acceptable.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Adds Weber: “We’ll have the kayaks so filled with plastic that we’ll end up just having to tow the kayaks — we’ll have to swim (them) to shore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are sharks in the water there, but Savoca says that wasn’t the real threat. “When we were out there,” he says, “We’d hear, ‘plink, plink,’ and we’d look up on the hill and there’d be golf balls flying in off the course right into the ocean where we were doing collections.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the aerial barrage, they kept at it, says Weber. “Whenever we had good conditions, we were able to pull out between, like, 500 to 5,000 golf balls,” she says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over two years, they found more than 50,000 golf balls. The source: five golf courses. Two along the coastline, and three up the Carmel River — those golf balls rolled underwater down the river to the ocean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the journal \u003cem>Marine Pollution Bulletin,\u003c/em> the team notes that golf balls are coated with a thin polyurethane shell that degrades over time. They also contain zinc compounds that are toxic. Savoca points out that the surf and currents act like a rock grinder and break down the golf balls. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While chemicals from 50,000 or so golf balls will have only a small effect on the ocean, Savoca says they do degrade into \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2018/08/20/636845604/beer-drinking-water-and-fish-tiny-plastic-is-everywhere\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">microplastic pieces\u003c/a> that marine animals could eat.

In the meantime, she is still collecting, and keeping up her\u003ca href=\"https://www.theplasticpick-up.org\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> website\u003c/a>. She says it is too bad the golf balls sink. If they floated, people would be shocked and outraged. “If a person could see what we see underwater,” she says, “it would not be acceptable.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Watched it cast down hillsides on sunny days ... against the gray concrete sidewalk, the asphalt street, stucco and brick houses, on the sands of Ocean, China and Baker beaches.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Gates' project took a lot less time than Graham's walk, but he also concedes that he might have missed a couple of areas here and there. \"I think there's probably 2 or 3 miles of little blocks that I missed,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the grand scheme of more than 1,300 miles, one or two missed is almost nothing, but Gates said he plans to go back over the next couple of days and try to fill in the blanks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think anybody really cares about that except for myself,\" he said. \"You come up with this project called 'Every Single Street,' and that has a little asterisk for me until I'm able to click off those last little blocks there.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for what's next, Gates said he plans to get some much needed rest, but he'll likely be off on another ambitious expedition sometime soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After 1,300 miles in San Francisco, Gates said he's looking beyond the city limits. \"I'm a trail runner at heart,\" he said. \"My next project will likely take me back to the trails.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>To listen to KQED's full interview with Rickey Gates, press the red play button at the top of this post.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>The Oakland A’s are proposing an ambitious plan for a new waterfront ballpark just north of Jack London Square. It would include an intimate stadium surrounded by high-rise buildings, and a gondola from the downtown Oakland BART station that would shuttle fans over the I-880 freeway. The team is also proposing to re-develop the Coliseum site in East Oakland. KQED’s Tara Siler and Nina Thorsen discussed the announcement, which was made Wednesday at the A’s headquarters and at \u003ca href=\"http://www.oaklandballpark.com\">www.oaklandballpark.com\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Tara Siler:\u003c/strong> Describe what this stadium would look like — they’re calling it a “jewel box” — what does that mean?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Nina Thorsen:\u003c/strong> Well, it’s small — 34,000 seats. That’s much smaller than the Coliseum, smaller than the Giants’ AT&T Park, in fact it would be one of the smallest in Major League Baseball. It’s intimate, as you said — all the seats are close to the field, it doesn’t have the big foul territory or the high upper deck of the Coliseum. It’s a very contemporary design. It’s nothing like the retro brick ballparks such as AT&T that have been fashionable for the last 20 years, although there is a subtle homage to the Athletics’ original home in Philadelphia, Shibe Park. There are some neat features like a “harbor bath” — a swimming pool just outside the ballpark — and a green roof perimeter, so you’d be able to walk in a park-like area all the way around the roof level of the stadium. Some of the iconic Port of Oakland cranes that are on the site now would be incorporated into the design. And there’d be some terraced areas where fans without tickets would still be able to look into the ballpark from outside, sort of like the rooftops that overlook Wrigley Field in Chicago. The idea is it would be a destination and a public space, even when there isn’t a game happening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Siler:\u003c/strong> What are the A’s saying about this idea for a gondola — how is that going to work?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thorsen:\u003c/strong> The gondola is one solution to the problem of how to get people from BART down to Jack London Square and the ballpark, because there’s a freeway and railroad tracks in the way. So this would be an aerial tram that would go from downtown, over the freeway and the tracks, and possibly terminate at one of the port cranes that are being incorporated into the stadium design. But my sense is the gondola isn’t a make-or-break aspect of the design. If it doesn’t work out, or even if it does, there will be other transit alternatives. But this is definitely going to be a transit-first ballpark, not like the Coliseum surrounded by surface parking lots. The A’s say there are more than 10,000 parking spaces within walking distance of the stadium already, but relatively few will be built as part of the ballpark development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Siler:\u003c/strong> How real is this proposal?

But what’s different this time is that the major players were all at the table for this press conference. Literally at the table — team President Dave Kaval, Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, president of the Alameda County Board of Supervisors, Nate Miley, president of the Oakland City Council, Larry Reid, and president of the Board of Commissioners for the Port of Oakland, Ces Butner. So they’ve all signed on to the concept.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A lot of details remain to be fleshed out — for example, would the A’s buy out Alameda County’s share of the Coliseum property, or would the city buy the county out and lease the property back to the A’s? But Mayor Schaaf said the relationship between the city and the team is closer than it has ever been. “It’s like we’re dating exclusively,” she said. “We’re not looking anywhere else. We’re in a courtship right now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Siler:\u003c/strong> So if this relationship works out — how much is this project going to cost?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thorsen:\u003c/strong> The A’s are not saying yet. There are too many variables for them to have a firm figure. But they have committed repeatedly to the position that all of the ballpark and the Coliseum redesign will be privately funded by the A’s and their development partners. Taxpayers would not be contributing anything to the project directly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Siler:\u003c/strong> And what would be the vision for the Coliseum property — because there was also talk about rebuilding a stadium on that site?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thorsen:\u003c/strong> The idea is adaptive reuse, keeping the footprint of the current Coliseum baseball diamond itself, taking down the ballpark around it, so it would become a place for youth and community baseball. The rendering shows an area of outdoor amphitheater seating around it, so it could be used for different community events and gatherings. They envision keeping Oracle Arena where it is and revamping it for concerts and public gatherings. The A’s Kaval said that in the neighborhood meetings that the team has hosted along with councilmember Larry Reid, who represents East Oakland, people repeatedly said they didn’t want a Wal-Mart or something like that to stand on the ground where the Raiders and A’s and Warriors have celebrated so many championships. “We heard from so many people in East Oakland,” Kaval said, “that people want to have pride in what’s at the Coliseum site — ballpark or no ballpark.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That said, there would be commercial development on the greater part of the Coliseum site beyond the current ballpark — it’s part of how the team would expect to finance the ballpark operations. The plan shows housing, both affordable and market-rate, office, retail and a tech campus. But there would also be a lot of green space that, in part, is intended to help insulate other parts of East Oakland from the effects of rising sea levels.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Siler:\u003c/strong> What’s the next step in the process to getting this stadium built?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thorsen:\u003c/strong> On Friday, the A’s will start the CEQA [California Environmental Quality Act] process, which will take a year even in its expedited form — it was fast-tracked by a bill passed by the Legislature a few months ago. And while that environmental impact process goes on, they will work out the details of financing and ownership with the city, the county and the port, and work on the details of the design. If all goes well, they hope to have the new stadium ready to move in for Opening Day 2023. The A’s will continue to play at the Coliseum until then, so the major components of that reuse plan would have to wait, but Kaval said they might start some parts earlier if it doesn’t impact stadium operations or parking.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Get up in the morning, look in the mirror, and say to yourself, you have a responsibility. Then you’ve got to answer that. What is it?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a young university student, Smith was thinking along these lines before he qualified for the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City. In 1967, as the Mexico City Olympics approached, another athlete and activist on campus by the name of \u003ca href=\"https://www.sjsuwordstoaction.com/category/dr-harry-edwards/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Harry Edwards\u003c/a> formed the Olympic Project for Human Rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group called for an athlete boycott of the games, to highlight the inequities African-American athletes faced. They wanted more black coaches. They wanted Olympic officials to restore Muhammad Ali’s heavyweight title, to disinvite South Africa and Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) from the Olympics, and to remove Avery Brundage, the controversial International Olympic Committee president, from power.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The boycott failed to gain traction, but in the political moment of 1968, after two major assassinations, rolling riots and protests throughout the country, Smith and Carlos were not alone in feeling the charged political atmosphere back home demanded some kind of response, some action to capitalize on the platform they would enjoy with the world’s attention on them for the games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of athletes wore black items of clothing during the Olympics as silent, subtle protests, but Smith and Carlos had something bigger in mind. After they won the gold and bronze, respectively, for their performances in the 200-meter dash, they walked up to receive their medals wearing black scarves to symbolize lynching, as well as black socks with no shoes to symbolize poverty. As the crowd cheered, they each raised a gloved fist to the sky.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Watch the men’s 200-meter race at the 1968 Mexico City Games, and the awards ceremony that follows.

The International Olympic Committee called the protest of black suffering in America “outrageous,” and sent the two men\u003ca href=\"https://diva.sfsu.edu/collections/sfbatv/bundles/206374\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> back to San Jose\u003c/a> the next day. Smith and Carlos received death threats, and the FBI monitored them with the label “rabble rousers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The action … was an insult to the Mexican hosts and a disgrace to the United States,” Avery Brundage, the International Olympic Committee president, wrote in a letter months later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The superstars from “Speed City,” as San Jose State was called at the time, were banned from international track and field competitions. In 1968, Tommie Smith was one of the fastest men on the planet. He set 13 world records, including the one on Oct. 16, 1968.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yV4zvaxeI94]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the years, attitudes towards what the men did began to change. In 1984, Smith and Carlos became emissaries for the Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. They were inducted into the U.S. Track and Field Hall of Fame. And in 2005, the Associated Students of San Jose State University unveiled, in the heart of the campus, a 23-foot-tall sculpture of the two athletes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carlos told the gathering, “W\u003cb>\u003c/b>e had to do something that would be prestigious, respectable, pungent, shocking. We didn’t give the finger. We didn’t wrap the flag around our head or tie it up like a diaper. We didn’t stand there with disrespect. We stood there to say, ‘Hey man, I’m America. I’m your son and I’m wounded. I’m not wounded for me, because I’m one of your heroes. I’m in the Olympics. But I’m wounded for the race.’ […] That’s why we went to Mexico City.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11699653\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11699653\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"John Carlos and Tommie Smith stand in front of the statue memorializing their iconic Olympic moment on the San Jose State University campus.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">John Carlos and Tommie Smith stand in front of the statue memorializing their iconic Olympic moment on the San Jose State University campus. \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy of Josie Lepe/San Jose State University )\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>He added, “I didn’t choose to be the guy in Mexico City.

In 1967, as the Mexico City Olympics approached, another athlete and activist on campus by the name of \u003ca href=\"https://www.sjsuwordstoaction.com/category/dr-harry-edwards/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Harry Edwards\u003c/a> formed the Olympic Project for Human Rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They wanted more black coaches. They wanted Olympic officials to restore Muhammad Ali’s heavyweight title, to disinvite South Africa and Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) from the Olympics, and to remove Avery Brundage, the controversial International Olympic Committee president, from power.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The boycott failed to gain traction, but in the political moment of 1968, after two major assassinations, rolling riots and protests throughout the country, Smith and Carlos were not alone in feeling the charged political atmosphere back home demanded some kind of response, some action to capitalize on the platform they would enjoy with the world’s attention on them for the games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of athletes wore black items of clothing during the Olympics as silent, subtle protests, but Smith and Carlos had something bigger in mind. After they won the gold and bronze, respectively, for their performances in the 200-meter dash, they walked up to receive their medals wearing black scarves to symbolize lynching, as well as black socks with no shoes to symbolize poverty. As the crowd cheered, they each raised a gloved fist to the sky.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Watch the men’s 200-meter race at the 1968 Mexico City Games, and the awards ceremony that follows.

The International Olympic Committee called the protest of black suffering in America “outrageous,” and sent the two men\u003ca href=\"https://diva.sfsu.edu/collections/sfbatv/bundles/206374\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> back to San Jose\u003c/a> the next day. Smith and Carlos received death threats, and the FBI monitored them with the label “rabble rousers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The action … was an insult to the Mexican hosts and a disgrace to the United States,” Avery Brundage, the International Olympic Committee president, wrote in a letter months later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The superstars from “Speed City,” as San Jose State was called at the time, were banned from international track and field competitions.

In 1984, Smith and Carlos became emissaries for the Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. They were inducted into the U.S. Track and Field Hall of Fame. And in 2005, the Associated Students of San Jose State University unveiled, in the heart of the campus, a 23-foot-tall sculpture of the two athletes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carlos told the gathering, “W\u003cb>\u003c/b>e had to do something that would be prestigious, respectable, pungent, shocking. We didn’t give the finger. We didn’t wrap the flag around our head or tie it up like a diaper. We didn’t stand there with disrespect. We stood there to say, ‘Hey man, I’m America. I’m your son and I’m wounded. I’m not wounded for me, because I’m one of your heroes. I’m in the Olympics. But I’m wounded for the race.’ […] That’s why we went to Mexico City.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11699653\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11699653\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"John Carlos and Tommie Smith stand in front of the statue memorializing their iconic Olympic moment on the San Jose State University campus.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/RS33278_TommieCarlos_Sculpture_EPE0461-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">John Carlos and Tommie Smith stand in front of the statue memorializing their iconic Olympic moment on the San Jose State University campus. \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy of Josie Lepe/San Jose State University )\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>He added, “I didn’t choose to be the guy in Mexico City.
