"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.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

But it wasn’t so easy a few months ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zoelle Egner was working in the marketing department for a big tech company, from home in Oakland, and was also frantically trying to find vaccine information. Egner said she saw friends doing exactly the same, “calling 20, 30 locations, trying to understand [if they] were eligible for a vaccine, how they get an appointment — and over and over again, really hitting walls.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11856204/californias-clearest-covid-19-vaccine-appointment-dashboard-is-run-by-volunteers\">she and her friends decided to do something about it\u003c/a>. They created \u003ca href=\"https://www.vaccinateca.com/\">VaccinateCA.com\u003c/a>, an aggregator website that compiles data from clinics and pharmacies across the state. After typing in your ZIP code or county name, a list of sites will pop up with vaccination information for eligible people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we call the people who can actually give you a vaccine and we write down what they say — do they have a vaccine, who is eligible and how do you get an appointment — then hopefully, hundreds or even thousands of phone calls don’t need to be made [by members of the public,” said Egner.\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[aside postID=\"news_11855623\"]\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>VaccinateCA swiftly expanded as more volunteers signed up to help maintain the site. But Egner and her team weren’t the only people using technology to address information gaps around vaccination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Adam Freemer created \u003ca href=\"https://www.vaxxmax.com/\">VaxxMax,\u003c/a> a website that fetches data from pharmacy websites, including Walgreens, CVS and Rite Aid, on the status of vaccination slots at each provider.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I quickly became frustrated with the process you have to go through on the pharmacy sites,” Freemer said. “I brainstormed a bit and thought of a mechanism that could help in the process, originally only for my own personal use.” Freemer created a code and built a website that others could use, scraping code for Rite Aid stores. Eventually, the website expanded to other vaccine providers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>VaccinateCA and VaxxMax are just two of many sites that promise a clearer answer to the question on everyone’s mind: Where can I find a vaccine?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some, like \u003ca href=\"https://vaccinefinder.org/\">VaccineFinder\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.vaccinespotter.org/CA/\">Vaccine Spotter\u003c/a>, scan available appointments at clinics and pharmacies near your ZIP code — essentially aggregating information that’s already available online.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sign-up sites like \u003ca href=\"https://hidrb.com/\">Dr. B\u003c/a> go further, and will put you on a waitlist for a leftover vaccine that could be available near you at a moment’s notice.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What \u003cstrong>— and Who — \u003c/strong>Gets Left Out?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>It’s worth clarifying that these kinds of sites aren’t run by public health departments, or the state itself. As such, their priorities — including speed and convenience — aren’t necessarily those of public health officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result, public health and internet ethics watchdogs have misgivings about some of these kinds of sites.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Irina Raicu, director of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.scu.edu/ethics/focus-areas/internet-ethics/\">internet ethics program at Santa Clara University’s Markkula Center,\u003c/a> worries that while these sites are easy to use for many Bay Area residents, they also require internet access and a fair amount of internet literacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Anytime something is done through the internet, it means that it’s leaving some people out,” said Raicu.\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[aside postID=\"news_11856204\"]\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her colleague Dr. Charles Binkley, the Markkula Center’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.scu.edu/ethics/focus-areas/bioethics/\">director of bioethics\u003c/a>, feels that the existence of \u003cem>multiple\u003c/em> sites is part of what’s confusing the public around vaccines. He also cautions that it’s impossible for people using these sites to be completely sure of their accuracy, despite the best efforts of those running them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of VaccinateCA’s method of volunteers calling vaccination sites to aggregate information, Binkley believes that “it’s very unlikely that the person who is answering the phone is going to have this global view of how many doses they have.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I’d rather see are these engineers working within the system that’s already in place to make it better, rather than trying to duplicate it outside,” said Binkley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of these volunteer or pop-up websites were created months ago, back when public health departments were scrambling to handle an influx of traffic from eager residents looking for vaccine information, all as eligibility shifted frequently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not only have counties somewhat improved the navigability of their public health websites, but in late January, the California Department of Public Health launched \u003ca href=\"https://myturn.ca.gov/\">My Turn \u003c/a>— a centralized place for Californians to assess their eligibility for a vaccine, and then find an appointment near them as supplies allow. And in light of these developments, Raicu believes privately created sites like VaccinateCA or Dr. B might have outlived their usefulness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It may be that this kind of site maybe made every ethical sense in the world for a week, while something better wasn’t around,” Raicu said. “And maybe it needs, at some point, to just go away — because it’s interfering with the efforts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Ethics of Hunting Leftover Vaccines\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Sites like Dr. B have encouraged people, eager for their vaccine, but not yet eligible, to be on the lookout for a leftover dose. But while some sites \u003cem>will\u003c/em> dole out leftover vaccines to ineligible people at the end of the day, other vaccination sites — especially those operated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency — have strict regulations for where leftover vaccines can go.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.theoaklandarena.com/ring-central\">RingCentral Coliseum\u003c/a> in Oakland is a FEMA-operated site. According to officials from the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services, site operators will call the Alameda Office of Education, the Sheriff’s Office and the Transportation Commission to give leftover vaccines to vulnerable individuals in high-risk jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other sites, like San Francisco’s \u003ca href=\"https://sf.gov/location/moscone-center-south-covid-19-vaccine-site\">Moscone Center\u003c/a>, operated through Kaiser Permanente, have different guidelines that allow them to be more loose with their leftover vaccines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Standard practice is that appointments are required at the Moscone vaccination hub,” a spokesperson from San Francisco’s COVID Command Center said — but “occasionally, when small amounts of unused vaccines are left over at the end of the day, vaccines may be made available to a limited number of people who do not have appointments.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Binkley is skeptical of this standby-line model for vaccine distribution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Is ‘first-come, first-served’ really a great ethical model? Well, no,” he said. “Typically the ‘first-comers’ are not the most vulnerable, or who need it the most.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Binkley worries that when people wait in line for a leftover vaccine, the people who might need a vaccine, but \u003cem>can’t\u003c/em> wait in line, aren’t able to get that shot. And he worries that sites like Dr. B perpetuate this problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Dr. B prioritized people not by who signed up first, but instead based prioritization on a person’s personal information and health circumstances, they could “prioritize you according to the phases and the tiers that have been decided on,” Binkley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So, if you have a line forming for leftover doses at the end of the day and you have a healthy 22-year-old at the front of the line and a 89-year-old with diabetes at the end of the line, you would prioritize the 89-year-old over the 22-year-old, just based on phases,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Binkley’s ideal ethical world, Dr. B would morph into a structure of volunteers who would get the vaccine — but who would also bring along people who don’t have access to transportation, or who are from more vulnerable populations, to get the vaccine \u003cem>with\u003c/em> them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I would love to see is people saying, ‘OK, I’m going to get my vaccine, I’m going to reach out to people I know who don’t have transportation and see if they want to go with me,” Binkley said. “So that we not only think about ourselves, and we think about our neighbor.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Eventually, the website expanded to other vaccine providers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>VaccinateCA and VaxxMax are just two of many sites that promise a clearer answer to the question on everyone’s mind: Where can I find a vaccine?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some, like \u003ca href=\"https://vaccinefinder.org/\">VaccineFinder\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.vaccinespotter.org/CA/\">Vaccine Spotter\u003c/a>, scan available appointments at clinics and pharmacies near your ZIP code — essentially aggregating information that’s already available online.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sign-up sites like \u003ca href=\"https://hidrb.com/\">Dr. B\u003c/a> go further, and will put you on a waitlist for a leftover vaccine that could be available near you at a moment’s notice.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What \u003cstrong>— and Who — \u003c/strong>Gets Left Out?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>It’s worth clarifying that these kinds of sites aren’t run by public health departments, or the state itself.

He also cautions that it’s impossible for people using these sites to be completely sure of their accuracy, despite the best efforts of those running them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of VaccinateCA’s method of volunteers calling vaccination sites to aggregate information, Binkley believes that “it’s very unlikely that the person who is answering the phone is going to have this global view of how many doses they have.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I’d rather see are these engineers working within the system that’s already in place to make it better, rather than trying to duplicate it outside,” said Binkley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of these volunteer or pop-up websites were created months ago, back when public health departments were scrambling to handle an influx of traffic from eager residents looking for vaccine information, all as eligibility shifted frequently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not only have counties somewhat improved the navigability of their public health websites, but in late January, the California Department of Public Health launched \u003ca href=\"https://myturn.ca.gov/\">My Turn \u003c/a>— a centralized place for Californians to assess their eligibility for a vaccine, and then find an appointment near them as supplies allow. And in light of these developments, Raicu believes privately created sites like VaccinateCA or Dr. B might have outlived their usefulness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It may be that this kind of site maybe made every ethical sense in the world for a week, while something better wasn’t around,” Raicu said. “And maybe it needs, at some point, to just go away — because it’s interfering with the efforts.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But while some sites \u003cem>will\u003c/em> dole out leftover vaccines to ineligible people at the end of the day, other vaccination sites — especially those operated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency — have strict regulations for where leftover vaccines can go.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.theoaklandarena.com/ring-central\">RingCentral Coliseum\u003c/a> in Oakland is a FEMA-operated site. According to officials from the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services, site operators will call the Alameda Office of Education, the Sheriff’s Office and the Transportation Commission to give leftover vaccines to vulnerable individuals in high-risk jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other sites, like San Francisco’s \u003ca href=\"https://sf.gov/location/moscone-center-south-covid-19-vaccine-site\">Moscone Center\u003c/a>, operated through Kaiser Permanente, have different guidelines that allow them to be more loose with their leftover vaccines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Standard practice is that appointments are required at the Moscone vaccination hub,” a spokesperson from San Francisco’s COVID Command Center said — but “occasionally, when small amounts of unused vaccines are left over at the end of the day, vaccines may be made available to a limited number of people who do not have appointments.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Binkley is skeptical of this standby-line model for vaccine distribution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Is ‘first-come, first-served’ really a great ethical model? Well, no,” he said. “Typically the ‘first-comers’ are not the most vulnerable, or who need it the most.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Binkley worries that when people wait in line for a leftover vaccine, the people who might need a vaccine, but \u003cem>can’t\u003c/em> wait in line, aren’t able to get that shot. And he worries that sites like Dr. B perpetuate this problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Dr. B prioritized people not by who signed up first, but instead based prioritization on a person’s personal information and health circumstances, they could “prioritize you according to the phases and the tiers that have been decided on,” Binkley said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So, if you have a line forming for leftover doses at the end of the day and you have a healthy 22-year-old at the front of the line and a 89-year-old with diabetes at the end of the line, you would prioritize the 89-year-old over the 22-year-old, just based on phases,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Binkley’s ideal ethical world, Dr. B would morph into a structure of volunteers who would get the vaccine — but who would also bring along people who don’t have access to transportation, or who are from more vulnerable populations, to get the vaccine \u003cem>with\u003c/em> them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I would love to see is people saying, ‘OK, I’m going to get my vaccine, I’m going to reach out to people I know who don’t have transportation and see if they want to go with me,” Binkley said. “So that we not only think about ourselves, and we think about our neighbor.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Gavin Newsom has made improving the state’s technology and increasing innovation a big focus: In 2019, he created the Office of Digital Innovation and signed an executive order implementing a new method for choosing which vendors and programs to upgrade the state’s aging technology infrastructure. Amy Tong, California’s chief information officer and director of the Department of Technology, said the state used to have their priorities backward — they’d tell vendors what their department needed, and how they should get there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, California is telling vendors what \u003cem>problem it needs solved\u003c/em> and asking vendors to not only provide solutions, but show proof that their solution is the best one.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Tell me what idea you can bring forward in solving that and demonstrate to me how you would solve that,” Tong said. “So that’s a two-step process that we have implemented.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The change is needed according to Assemblymember David Chiu, D-San Francisco. He said the state generally does a poor job managing \u003ca href=\"https://cdt.ca.gov/policy/it-project-tracking/\">IT modernization projects\u003c/a>. Chiu has served on the Assembly Budget Committee for six years. He said efforts to modernize these systems tend to go off the rails.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As legislators, we are often asked to approve tens of millions of dollars, if not hundreds of millions of dollars on top of budgets that have been blown, projects that are years behind in being completed,” he said.[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Amy Tong, CA Chief Information Officer and Director of the Department of Technology\"]‘We’re not saying, ‘Oh, not our problem.’ We own it, we fix it, we keep moving.

That effort started in 2005 with a six-year timeline and a $138 million budget. The cost has since ballooned to around $1 billion and the deadline has been pushed to 2022 as the scope of the project has gradually increased.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chiu said lawmakers are often put in tough positions when dealing with half-done projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“From my perspective, the Legislature generally acquiesces to the incremental budget requests where we continue to throw good money after bad,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s long history of bungling IT projects means a lot of legislators remain skeptical about whether the state can get these projects right. Tong knows that’s what she’s up against and said the state has become a lot more transparent about its challenges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re out front,” Tong said. “We’re not saying, ‘Oh, not our problem.’ We own it, we fix it, we keep moving. That is a culture shift.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tong said the cost of recent IT projects has been smaller compared with projects in the past. The California Department of Technology’s \u003ca href=\"https://cdt.ca.gov/policy/it-project-tracking/\">project tracker page\u003c/a> shows a number of IT efforts coming in at under $20 million, though there are also several costing hundreds of millions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The department has laid out its goals in its \u003ca href=\"https://vision2023.cdt.ca.gov/\">Vision 2023\u003c/a> strategic plan, which includes delivering fast and secure public services and making common technology easy to use across government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state is also trying to shift how it approaches massive system upgrades. Some of its largest agencies are running on technology that’s decades old and specifically tailored to the agency that’s using it. Tong said that makes overhauling an entire system all at once impractical. So the state is taking a different approach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11860924\" label=\"More on EDD's Problems\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No more big rip and replace of a big system, because when you do that, imagine the retraining, the reprocessing, it’s just awful,” she said. “So rather than do that, let’s take a look at the big things you need to do, but do it in a more modular manner. And then you can do a lot quicker.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brian Metzker, senior fiscal and policy analyst with the nonpartisan Legislative Analyst’s Office, said the new method of asking for input from vendors and requiring them to demonstrate how their ideas work could help the state understand what its needs are and how different vendors could meet them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But I don’t think that there has been, necessarily, a good example of a legacy system being modernized that really is transformative yet,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state could have a case study in how to fix an ailing department computer system soon from the Department of Motor Vehicles. The DMV has been plagued by \u003ca href=\"https://esd.dof.ca.gov/reports/reportPdf/C87E0788-C250-E911-9105-00505685B5D1/California%20Department%20of%20Motor%20Vehicles%20Performance%20Audit%20March%202019\">long wait times and system outages\u003c/a>, caused in part by outdated technology. DMV Director Steve Gordon said the agency has just begun the process of updating its computer system using the new proof-of-concept method.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re just starting on the road, but it’s going to be a three- to five-year journey,” Gordon said. “We’re doing our first module, hopefully this calendar year, and then we’re going to be doing successive modules. And then at the end of it, hopefully, all the DMV will be on a new platform.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a project a lot of people will likely be watching closely to see whether this latest approach helps bring California into the future, or ends in another expensive IT mess.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The California Department of Technology’s \u003ca href=\"https://cdt.ca.gov/policy/it-project-tracking/\">project tracker page\u003c/a> shows a number of IT efforts coming in at under $20 million, though there are also several costing hundreds of millions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The department has laid out its goals in its \u003ca href=\"https://vision2023.cdt.ca.gov/\">Vision 2023\u003c/a> strategic plan, which includes delivering fast and secure public services and making common technology easy to use across government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state is also trying to shift how it approaches massive system upgrades. Some of its largest agencies are running on technology that’s decades old and specifically tailored to the agency that’s using it. Tong said that makes overhauling an entire system all at once impractical. So the state is taking a different approach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>San Jose Deputy Police Chief Anthony Mata, who was selected this week as the city’s next head cop, says his top priority is regaining public trust in the department after a year of civil unrest and often tense relations with police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My vision is that every resident and every visitor here has that high confidence and trust in our department that we’ll help them out whenever they need [it],” Mata said during a press conference Wednesday. “We’re always open to improve what we do, our processes. So yes, I’ve been part of that change and I will continue to do so to make our department better and our community safer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mata was unanimously confirmed as San Jose’s chief of police by the City Council on Tuesday and will take the reins on March 22. He was one of four finalists for the position following former Police Chief Eddie Garcia’s departure announcement last summer and the city’s subsequent seven-month nationwide search to find his replacement. Garcia has since become Dallas’ police chief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mata has served with the SJPD since 1996, slowly making his way up the ranks. He currently oversees various units, including the crime data center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo on Wednesday threw his support behind Mata and the department he will soon lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Let me emphasize this great department,” he said. “That doesn’t mean that we don’t have our share of problems, that doesn’t mean there are plenty of reforms that we need to enact in partnership with our community, but we have a great police department.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The department drew fierce criticism last summer for its heavy-handed response to mostly peaceful protests held in the city’s downtown following the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two Northern California civil rights groups \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11864376/san-jose-demonstrators-sue-accuse-police-of-excessive-force-during-george-floyd-protests\">sued the city\u003c/a> earlier this month, accusing the department of using excessive force. The class-action suit seeks reforms and compensation for at least 28 people who were injured as police used teargas, flashbang grenades, rubber bullets and batons to break up the crowd.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plaintiffs include Derrick Sanderlin, a community activist and one-time police bias trainer, who was trying to de-escalate tensions between police and protesters when he was hit in the groin with a rubber bullet.

So yes, I’ve been part of that change and I will continue to do so to make our department better and our community safer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mata was unanimously confirmed as San Jose’s chief of police by the City Council on Tuesday and will take the reins on March 22. He was one of four finalists for the position following former Police Chief Eddie Garcia’s departure announcement last summer and the city’s subsequent seven-month nationwide search to find his replacement. Garcia has since become Dallas’ police chief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mata has served with the SJPD since 1996, slowly making his way up the ranks. He currently oversees various units, including the crime data center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo on Wednesday threw his support behind Mata and the department he will soon lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Will you support us?\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>“I just fell in love with reading about the history of African Americans,” Adkins said. “Those newspapers were published in San Francisco, and those newspapers carried the stories of local pioneers, not only in San Francisco, but in the entire Bay Area.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>African Americans in the South Bay built homes, \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/07/28/san-joses-historic-antioch-baptist-church-marks-a-milestone/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">churches\u003c/a> and schools.

But the community was tiny, less than 100 people through much of the 19th century, according to Adkins.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"tommie-smith\"]That changed with the Great Migration beginning in the early 20th century, as African Americans from southern and midwestern states seeking new economic opportunities were drawn to cities like San Jose, Palo Alto and Milpitas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After World War II, some African Americans who had first arrived elsewhere in the Bay Area for military manufacturing jobs, later moved to the South Bay and the Peninsula for other industrial work, especially at \u003ca href=\"https://milpitashistoricalsociety.org/milpitas-history/milpitas-street-names/gross-street/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ford Motor Company\u003c/a> in Milpitas.
