"title": "Senior Editor of KQED's Silicon Valley News Desk",
"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.",

That, at least, is what initially drew former public policy and social impact manager Ifeoma Ozoma to Pinterest in July of 2018 from her previous job at Facebook\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I thought this is a company that believes in diversity, or at least says it does,” she said. But less than a year later, Ozoma raised concerns about being underpaid for the level of work she was performing at the company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I wasn’t being paid fairly, and according to the company’s own chart, while I was still the public face of the all of the work that was being used to prop the company up as a responsible tech company in a sea of irresponsible ones,” Ozoma said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In recent weeks, companies across America have gone all out declaring their corporate allyship with Black Lives Matter. Silicon Valley companies have done the same, but that’s generated public backlash from current and former Black employees. None became more viral than Ozoma’s tweet thread earlier this week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/IfeomaOzoma/status/1272546213322080258?s=20\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Ozoma was still working for Pinterest, she said she led a number of initiatives she felt really good about, like taking down \u003ca href=\"https://newsroom.pinterest.com/en/post/bringing-authoritative-vaccine-results-to-pinterest-search\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">misinformation about vaccines\u003c/a> on Pinterest. She also got the platform to end its practices promoting \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/05/style/plantation-weddings-pinterest-knot-zola.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">slave plantations as wedding venues\u003c/a> — although she took heat in her performance review later and was told it was because she hadn’t made the case for not ending the practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I should have come up with the pros for promoting slave plantations. Like, to this day, I think about that, and the fact that it was put in writing — in a performance review that then impacted my pay,” Ozoma said. “Even though externally, the company really took advantage of the press that came with that decision.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After going in circles with her manager, his manager and HR for five months, Ozoma finally hired a lawyer.

I think that is a bare minimum. It is far from all anyone should be doing,” said Kunst (who was recently on KQED’s board for a year).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Google, Facebook and other companies have blamed their lack of Black employees on the “pipeline” problem — arguing there aren’t enough qualified people to hire, especially in their technical departments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Sarah Kunst, Cleo Capital\"]‘It would be very awkward in this context if you were telling me my life didn’t matter. I think that is a bare minimum. It is far from all anyone should be doing.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But many Silicon Valley watchers disagree it’s primarily a pipeline problem. Kunst, for instance, argued she’s observed a number of hiring managers fixated on a short list of Ivy League universities, unable to broaden their definition of “qualified.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She added it’s important to get rid of individuals who make the corporate culture toxic for Black employees and drive them away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This feels like a really good time to really dig deep and do an overhaul so that you create a culture that everyone loves and everyone is welcome in,” Kunst said, noting many Silicon Valley executives are already rethinking their corporate culture during the coronavirus pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A few years ago, companies, people, couldn’t even say the word ‘race.’ Like, not a particular race, just the word ‘race,'” said Y-Vonne Hutchinson of \u003ca href=\"https://www.thereadyset.co\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ReadySet\u003c/a>, a diversity, equity and inclusion consulting firm that works with a number of Silicon Valley companies. “The fact that the conversation has shifted so far in such a short period of time is encouraging.

Can Black people succeed?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='left' citation=\"Y-Vonne Hutchinson, ReadySet\"]‘The fact that the conversation has shifted so far in such a short period of time is encouraging.

Can Black people succeed?’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hutchinson added, “Because for a lot of these companies, we do see investments in recruiting. We do see some people coming through the door. Those people don’t advance. Those people leave, and a lot of times that’s because they’re experiencing microaggressions. They’re experiencing racism at work, and there’s no accountability for it.”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Karla Monterroso, CEO of the diversity-focused nonprofit \u003ca href=\"http://www.code2040.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Code 2040\u003c/a>, said companies need to focus less on job fairs and turn instead to the internal work needed to become welcoming places for more Black and Latinx employees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For the longest time, we have focused on the wrong things,” said Monterroso. “You will not get the full benefit of their thoughts and innovation because it’s more dangerous for them to swim against the current. Advocacy for people of color, especially Black people, will look like insubordination to many people. Until we examine that, it’s going to have a disproportionate impact on our workplace.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

With a population of roughly 175,000 tribal members living in an area the size of West Virginia, it’s the second-largest federally recognized tribe in the U.S. It’s also an area rife with poverty, where 30% of residents lack access to running water and depend on federally provided health care services. In response to the pandemic, authorities have imposed 57-hour weekend lockdowns and ordered residents to wear face coverings in public. Since late April, teams of volunteer doctors and nurses from UCSF have been traveling to the Navajo Nation to treat COVID-19 patients in this vulnerable community. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dr. Sriram Shamasunder, associate professor of medicine, UCSF\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Future of Cities\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Working from home has become the new norm for many in the age of coronavirus.

Gavin Newsom eased restrictions on additional businesses. Pending approval from county health departments, retailers can now reopen for in-person shopping but with limits on occupancy and face mask requirements for staff and customers. Barbershops and nail salons can also now reopen pending similar approval and protocols in place. Many businesses, however, remain shuttered, especially in regions hard hit by the pandemic, such as in the Bay Area and Los Angeles. California lawmakers must now grapple with a $54 billion state deficit, with millions of residents out of work, tax revenues plummeting and uncertainty mounting about California’s economic future. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tom Steyer, co-chair, Governor’s Task Force on Business and Jobs Recovery\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>UCSF Doctors and Nurses Help Navajo Nation Fight COVID-19\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Straddling Arizona, New Mexico and Utah, the Navajo Nation now has the highest rate of coronavirus infection per capita in the country. With a population of roughly 175,000 tribal members living in an area the size of West Virginia, it’s the second-largest federally recognized tribe in the U.S. It’s also an area rife with poverty, where 30% of residents lack access to running water and depend on federally provided health care services. In response to the pandemic, authorities have imposed 57-hour weekend lockdowns and ordered residents to wear face coverings in public. Since late April, teams of volunteer doctors and nurses from UCSF have been traveling to the Navajo Nation to treat COVID-19 patients in this vulnerable community. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Dr. Sriram Shamasunder, associate professor of medicine, UCSF\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Future of Cities\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Working from home has become the new norm for many in the age of coronavirus.

"content": "\u003cp>Harnessing today's technology to the task of fighting the coronavirus pandemic is turning out to be more complicated than it first appeared.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first U.S. states that \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/15c028c48502db395681ebca0099de5a\">rolled out smartphone apps\u003c/a> for tracing the contacts of COVID-19 patients are dealing with technical glitches and a general lack of interest by their residents. A second wave of tech-assisted pandemic surveillance tools is on its way, this time with the imprimatur of tech giants Apple and Google. But those face their own issues, among them potential accuracy problems and the fact that they won't share any information with governments that could help track the spread of the illness.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Rhode Island Democratic Gov. Gina Raimondo\"]'It’s only as good as a lot of us using it.'[/pullquote] \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Contact tracing is a pillar of infection control. It's traditionally conducted by trained public health workers who interview those who may have been exposed, then urge them to get tested and isolate themselves. Some estimates call for as many as 300,000 U.S. workers to do the work effectively, but so far those \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/588a99e650336bd3e2dda838e0725a67\">efforts have lagged\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other tech companies like Salesforce have offered database tools to assist manual tracing efforts, although those also raise privacy concerns because of the need to collect and store detailed information about people's social connections, health status and whereabouts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Privacy advocates warn that the danger of creating new government surveillance powers for the pandemic could lead to much bigger problems in the future. In a new \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclu.org/other/aclu-white-paper-government-safeguards-tech-assisted-contact-tracing\">policy paper\u003c/a> shared with The Associated Press, the American Civil Liberties Union is warning state governments to tread more carefully and establish stricter privacy procedures before deploying technology meant to detect and curb new coronavirus outbreaks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even the most privacy-minded tools, such as those to be released soon by Apple and Google, require constraints so that they don’t become instruments of surveillance or oppression. “The risks of getting it wrong are enormous,” said Neema Singh Guliani, a senior legislative counsel with the ACLU.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ACLU’s report says the most intrusive location-tracking technology should be rejected outright, such as apps that track individual movements via satellite-based GPS technology and feed sensitive personal data into centralized government databases. “Good designs don’t require you to gather people’s location information and store that,” Singh Guliani said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She urged governments to set rules addressing both privacy and efficacy so that surveillance tools don't interfere with more conventional public health methods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Utah, North Dakota and South Dakota were the first U.S. states to launch voluntary phone apps that enable public health departments to track the location and connections of people who test positive for the coronavirus. But governors haven’t had much luck getting the widespread participation needed for them to work effectively.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state with the highest known rate of participation so far is South Dakota, where last week about 2% of residents had the Care19 app on their phones. Last week was also the first time it recorded a single infection. The same app is getting even less support in North Dakota.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a red state,” said Crystal Wolfrum, a paralegal in Minot, North Dakota, who says she’s one of the only people among her neighbors and friends to download the app. “They don’t want to wear masks.

In a new \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclu.org/other/aclu-white-paper-government-safeguards-tech-assisted-contact-tracing\">policy paper\u003c/a> shared with The Associated Press, the American Civil Liberties Union is warning state governments to tread more carefully and establish stricter privacy procedures before deploying technology meant to detect and curb new coronavirus outbreaks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even the most privacy-minded tools, such as those to be released soon by Apple and Google, require constraints so that they don’t become instruments of surveillance or oppression. “The risks of getting it wrong are enormous,” said Neema Singh Guliani, a senior legislative counsel with the ACLU.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ACLU’s report says the most intrusive location-tracking technology should be rejected outright, such as apps that track individual movements via satellite-based GPS technology and feed sensitive personal data into centralized government databases. “Good designs don’t require you to gather people’s location information and store that,” Singh Guliani said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She urged governments to set rules addressing both privacy and efficacy so that surveillance tools don't interfere with more conventional public health methods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Utah, North Dakota and South Dakota were the first U.S. states to launch voluntary phone apps that enable public health departments to track the location and connections of people who test positive for the coronavirus. But governors haven’t had much luck getting the widespread participation needed for them to work effectively.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state with the highest known rate of participation so far is South Dakota, where last week about 2% of residents had the Care19 app on their phones. Last week was also the first time it recorded a single infection. The same app is getting even less support in North Dakota.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a red state,” said Crystal Wolfrum, a paralegal in Minot, North Dakota, who says she’s one of the only people among her neighbors and friends to download the app. “They don’t want to wear masks. They don’t want to be told what to do. A lot of people I talk to are, like, ‘Nope, you’re not going to track me.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
