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.",

Their proposal had the first women's heat starting next year, for the 2017-18 contest. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last November, \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/mavericks-could-be-required-to-include-women/\" target=\"_blank\">the Coastal Commission voted\u003c/a> to require contest organizers to include women as a condition of approval for any future event permits. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many female surfers wanted that inclusion to come in the form of a women's-only heat. Four of those surfers founded a group, \u003ca href=\"http://www.surfequity.org/\" target=\"_blank\">The Committee for Equity in Women's Surfing\u003c/a> earlier this year and submitted \u003ca href=\"https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5803b9e02e69cf75b4a2c522/t/5803fcad1b631be52b9ffd33/1476656302286/Inclusion_Proposal_v7.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">a proposal\u003c/a> for what a women's heat would look like. [contextly_sidebar id=\"KwRj1OKX9GI9DZ9cXgW94qKFMK7he0dr\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We believe that it’s time for the women athletes to be given an opportunity to\u003cbr>\ncompete in a women’s division at Mavericks,\" wrote surfers Paige Alms, Keala Kennelly, Andrea Moller, and Bianca Valenti, who lives in San Francsico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But event organizers have argued they never excluded women in the first place and female surfers are equally eligible to compete as male surfers -- if they're good enough. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If a woman is hitting the criteria, then they’re going to surf their way into the contest,” said Darryl “Flea” Virostko earlier this year. Virostko won the contest three times and now serves on Committee 5, the group that selects the 24 invited surfers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the Coastal Commission's vote last year, \u003ca href=\"https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5803b9e02e69cf75b4a2c522/t/5803ee593e00be5b9aa02d4a/1476652634379/Updated+Final+Plan_CCC+Permit+Ext+Request+%289-14-16%29+received+10-14-2016.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">plans\u003c/a> for this year's competition did not originally include women. So this week's announcement to have women compete a year earlier than expected came as a surprise, even to those involved in the debate.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\"We believe that it’s time for the women athletes to be given an opportunity to compete in a women’s division at Mavericks.\"\u003ccite>Paige Alms, Keala Kennelly, Andrea Moller, and Bianca Valenti\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\"There was no hint that anything like this was brewing,\" said Sabrina Brennan, who serves on the San Mateo Harbor Commission and who first brought the issue to the attention of the Coastal Commission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wasn’t expecting this,” \u003ca href=\"http://www.surfermag.com/features/womens-heat-held-titans-mavericks/#OrYF5O4OUm3Tzdfc.97\" target=\"_blank\">Valenti told Surfer Mag.\u003c/a> “But I think it’s awesome. I’m just excited to see the women’s side of the sport strengthen. It felt weird always asking for them to let us women in. So it feels great knowing they know want us to be apart of this rad big-wave community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Details about the new women's heat are still forthcoming, and organizers did not respond to requests for additional comment. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What we do know is six female surfers will be invited to compete by Committee 5 by Nov. 1. The women's event will include two semi-finals and a final -- currently planned to be held in between the men's heats. They will compete for $30,000. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brennan said some of the event's organizers would like to hold a roundtable discussion with the women and are considering the possibility of a two-day format, weather permitting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also said there are still some issues to be worked out. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'd like to see something in writing,\" she said. So far the news has only been mentioned on social media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The female surfers have also requested a woman sit on the selection committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mavericks is hosting its opening ceremonies today and the holding period extends from Nov. 1 to March 31.\u003c/p>\n\n",

"content": "\u003cp>A special session of the Nevada Legislature has approved at least $750 million in public funding for a new football stadium, which they hope will lure the Oakland Raiders to Las Vegas. It would be the largest public contribution to a stadium in history. But it's far from a done deal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://knpr.org/knpr/2016-10/despite-last-minute-report-stadium-related-road-costs-assembly-approves-tax-hike\" target=\"_blank\">The Nevada Senate passed the funding bill on Tuesday\u003c/a> on a 16-5 vote, and the Assembly heard hours of public comment on Thursday. Most supporters were members of local construction unions, like Dennis Cronin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A lot of our members have been out of work for a long time,\" Cronin testified. \"They lost their houses, and this is an opportunity to get these people back into work and into housing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Las Vegas resident Steve Miller told Assembly members they shouldn't trust promises from Raiders owner Mark Davis that the team would stay in Nevada for at least 30 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The potential move would make the second time the Raiders have left and abandoned Oakland,\" Miller said, referring to the Raiders' 1982 relocation to Los Angeles. \"You have to ask the question: Does the ownership care about the community, or the money?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, Thursday night, legislators discovered that in addition to $750 million for the stadium itself, they'll need to find \u003ca href=\"http://www.reviewjournal.com/business/stadium/report-recommends-speeding-899m-freeway-projects-support-proposed-raiders-stadium\" target=\"_blank\">about $900 million\u003c/a> for improvements to nearby roads. The director of Nevada's Department of Transportation had to go before the Assembly around midnight to testify that those plans were already in the works for sometime in the next 20 years, and the stadium would only bring them to the front of the queue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But by Friday morning, Assembly members had been persuaded by the promise of thousands of construction jobs and approved the plan on a 28-13 vote. Lobbying from \u003ca href=\"http://www.forbes.com/profile/sheldon-adelson/\" target=\"_blank\">Las Vegas billionaire Sheldon Adelson\u003c/a>, the stadium's biggest backer, was no doubt a factor as well. Adelson is No. 14 on the Forbes 400, with a net worth estimated at $31.6 billion. He owns the Las Vegas Sands casino and last year bought the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the city's largest newspaper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval is expected to sign the bill on Monday. \u003ca href=\"http://www.raiders.com/news/article-1/Raiders-Statement/fdcf6280-2479-440b-b7f5-8f77cc5f887e?sf38907316=1\" target=\"_blank\">In a statement after the vote\u003c/a>, Raiders owner Mark Davis called it \"historic\" and said \"all parties have worked extremely hard to develop and approve this tremendous stadium project that will serve as a proud new home for the entire Raider Nation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But will the Raiders move? Sports business consultant Andy Dolich, former chief operating officer of the 49ers, published a commentary in the East Bay Times last month called \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbaytimes.com/2016/09/26/dolich-11-hurdles-to-raiders-vegas-move/\" target=\"_blank\">\"11 hurdles to Raiders Vegas move.\" \u003c/a>The Nevada Legislature's approval wasn't one of them that was expected by most observers when the special session was called.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hurdles include getting the support of at least three-fourths of other NFL owners, and that may be the biggest obstacle.

Most supporters were members of local construction unions, like Dennis Cronin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A lot of our members have been out of work for a long time,\" Cronin testified. \"They lost their houses, and this is an opportunity to get these people back into work and into housing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Las Vegas resident Steve Miller told Assembly members they shouldn't trust promises from Raiders owner Mark Davis that the team would stay in Nevada for at least 30 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The potential move would make the second time the Raiders have left and abandoned Oakland,\" Miller said, referring to the Raiders' 1982 relocation to Los Angeles. \"You have to ask the question: Does the ownership care about the community, or the money?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The director of Nevada's Department of Transportation had to go before the Assembly around midnight to testify that those plans were already in the works for sometime in the next 20 years, and the stadium would only bring them to the front of the queue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But by Friday morning, Assembly members had been persuaded by the promise of thousands of construction jobs and approved the plan on a 28-13 vote. Lobbying from \u003ca href=\"http://www.forbes.com/profile/sheldon-adelson/\" target=\"_blank\">Las Vegas billionaire Sheldon Adelson\u003c/a>, the stadium's biggest backer, was no doubt a factor as well. Adelson is No. 14 on the Forbes 400, with a net worth estimated at $31.6 billion. He owns the Las Vegas Sands casino and last year bought the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the city's largest newspaper.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nevada Gov.

Sports business consultant Andy Dolich, former chief operating officer of the 49ers, published a commentary in the East Bay Times last month called \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbaytimes.com/2016/09/26/dolich-11-hurdles-to-raiders-vegas-move/\" target=\"_blank\">\"11 hurdles to Raiders Vegas move.\" \u003c/a>The Nevada Legislature's approval wasn't one of them that was expected by most observers when the special session was called.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hurdles include getting the support of at least three-fourths of other NFL owners, and that may be the biggest obstacle. The very thing that made the stadium irresistible to Nevada legislators -- thousands of unemployed constituents desperate for high-paying jobs -- might make the league wonder who would be buying tickets. The Bay Area ranks No. 1 among U.S. cities in median income; Las Vegas is No. 80. The NFL has also been squeamish in the past about getting too cozy with the gambling industry.

But your book traces how Kenny Washington and Woody Strode broke pro football's color line a year earlier, in 1946. Tell me about these guys.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>GRETCHEN ATWOOD\u003c/strong>: They both grew up in Los Angeles, and got recruited to UCLA. Kenny grew up in Lincoln Heights, which was mostly an Italian or Irish immigrant neighborhood. His family may have been the only African-American family in the neighborhood. He had wanted to go to Notre Dame, but they didn't play black players. He and Woody got recruited to UCLA as sophomores in 1937, and pretty much put UCLA football on the map for the first time. Jackie Robinson came on and played with them on the 1939 UCLA Bruin team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why was Los Angeles the place where integration happened in pro football?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ATWOOD\u003c/strong>: There was a very involved black press in L.A., with three major black newspapers. Those sportswriters pushed really hard for the team to integrate. No West Coast city had a major pro franchise until the Rams moved in 1946. They were trying to get a lease for the L.A. Coliseum. This was a moment when the black sportswriters knew they could pressure the L.A. Coliseum commission to potentially withhold a lease until the team tried out black players.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Your book traces how racial covenants were playing out in L.A. at the time. There were these racially restrictive housing covenants.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ATWOOD\u003c/strong>: At one time, it was estimated that 80 percent of the housing in Los Angeles was covered by racially restrictive housing covenants. That meant black residents, and Asian, Latino, Catholic or Jewish residents wouldn't be allowed to rent or buy in certain areas. That was playing out at the same time football was integrating. Some of Kenny and Woody's peers in the sports world, including two boxers, were told they had to leave their properties. Nat King Cole is another example of someone who was evicted because of these covenants. On the national scene, this was all playing out during a backlash after World War Two, when there was a rise in attacks and lynchings, including against black service members. A lot of these attacks happened in 1946, which was the same time Kenny and Woody were preparing to step out on the field for the L.A. Rams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In researching your book, you talked to family members, like Karin Washington Cohen, Kenny Washington's daughter.

Sportswriter \u003ca href=\"https://gretchenatwood.com/\">Gretchen Atwood\u003c/a> traces this history in her new book, \u003ca href=\"http://www.bloomsbury.com/us/lost-champions-9781620406021/\">\"Lost Champions.\"\u003c/a> She talked with \u003cem>The California Report's\u003c/em> Sasha Khokha.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cdiv class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__shortcodes__shortcodeWrapper'>\n \u003ciframe width='100%' height='166'\n scrolling='no' frameborder='no'\n src='https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/283269633&visual=true&color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false'\n title='https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/283269633'>\n \u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/div>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Many people know the role Jackie Robinson played in integrating major league baseball in 1947. But your book traces how Kenny Washington and Woody Strode broke pro football's color line a year earlier, in 1946. Tell me about these guys.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>GRETCHEN ATWOOD\u003c/strong>: They both grew up in Los Angeles, and got recruited to UCLA. Kenny grew up in Lincoln Heights, which was mostly an Italian or Irish immigrant neighborhood. His family may have been the only African-American family in the neighborhood. He had wanted to go to Notre Dame, but they didn't play black players. He and Woody got recruited to UCLA as sophomores in 1937, and pretty much put UCLA football on the map for the first time. Jackie Robinson came on and played with them on the 1939 UCLA Bruin team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why was Los Angeles the place where integration happened in pro football?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ATWOOD\u003c/strong>: There was a very involved black press in L.A., with three major black newspapers. Those sportswriters pushed really hard for the team to integrate. No West Coast city had a major pro franchise until the Rams moved in 1946. They were trying to get a lease for the L.A. Coliseum. This was a moment when the black sportswriters knew they could pressure the L.A. Coliseum commission to potentially withhold a lease until the team tried out black players.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Your book traces how racial covenants were playing out in L.A. at the time. There were these racially restrictive housing covenants.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ATWOOD\u003c/strong>: At one time, it was estimated that 80 percent of the housing in Los Angeles was covered by racially restrictive housing covenants. That meant black residents, and Asian, Latino, Catholic or Jewish residents wouldn't be allowed to rent or buy in certain areas. That was playing out at the same time football was integrating. Some of Kenny and Woody's peers in the sports world, including two boxers, were told they had to leave their properties. Nat King Cole is another example of someone who was evicted because of these covenants. On the national scene, this was all playing out during a backlash after World War Two, when there was a rise in attacks and lynchings, including against black service members. A lot of these attacks happened in 1946, which was the same time Kenny and Woody were preparing to step out on the field for the L.A. Rams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In researching your book, you talked to family members, like Karin Washington Cohen, Kenny Washington's daughter. We called her up, too, and she told us some of her dad's experiences on the field. \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>\"He was the target out there,\" Cohen said. \"They stepped on his hands.

He was a very good target.\"\u003c/em>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ATWOOD\u003c/strong>: Kenny and Woody faced hostility from just about everyone. Some fans were supportive, some were very hostile. Opposing coaches were hostile. So were opposing players. There's a scene in the book where Kenny's out of the play, and on the ground, and one of the opponents runs by him and takes a swing with his foot to kick him in the head.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What do you think Kenny Washington and Woody Strode would make of\u003c/strong> \u003cstrong>Colin Kaepernick's protests on the field today?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>ATWOOD\u003c/strong>: They didn't have the luxury of protesting, in a sense, because they had to \"go along to get along,\" just to stay on the team.

Then they moved to San Diego, where Uy is an open water swimmer. “I didn’t surf before my dog did; I learned after my dog,” Uy says. “She used to follow me out into the water. We just put her on a surfboard to rest one day, and she stood up, which is unusual.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nine years later, Abbie is doing the animal surfing circuit.

But even though the event attracted hundreds of onlookers to the chilly beach on Saturday morning, only five canine surfers signed up for the challenge.
