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.",

Cowell, who police say was captured on surveillance video Sunday night stabbing two women at Oakland’s MacArthur Station, was aboard an Antioch-bound train when he was arrested.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nia Wilson, 18, of Oakland, died in the Sunday night attack. Her sister, Lahtifa Wilson, 26, was critically injured.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART Police Chief Carlos Rojas said during a media briefing in Oakland that two officers found Cowell during a search of the train, which had been held at Pleasant Hill following a passenger’s call that the murder suspect was aboard.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rojas said that Cowell readily admitted his identity and provided a California ID card when officers requested it. Rojas added that Cowell was unarmed when officers detained him around 6:30 p.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meantime, a vigil for the stabbing victims at MacArthur Station early Monday evening was followed by a march to downtown Oakland.

When they responded, they found Nia Wilson, 18, of Oakland, and her 26-year-old sister, Lahtifa, suffering from stab wounds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rojas said the two women, along with a third sister, were on the platform to transfer to another train when the suspect approached them with a knife and “struck very rapidly.” He called it “one of the most vicious attacks I’ve seen” in nearly 30 years of police experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was reminiscent of a prison yard assault, where you have an individual with a sharp object or a shank,” Rojas said. “And they do their attack so quickly that before anybody can really react, the person takes off running.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nia Wilson died at the scene. Her sister was rushed to a hospital with life-threatening injuries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/meganrcassidy/status/1021296996697559040\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART said officers identified Cowell from surveillance images captured by onboard and station platform cameras.

He said Nia Wilson and her sister “didn’t ask to get cut or stabbed. Those are baby girls. Those are our children.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the midst of social media threads that have pointed to a possible racial motive for a white suspect’s attack on black women, Allums said, “We need the community, especially the African-American community, to stand down. … I’m in fear right now. We don’t know if this was racist, we don’t know if it was random, we don’t know what it was.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said Stop Killing Our Kids would hold a vigil at MacArthur Station from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In answer to a reporter’s question, Rojas said police don’t have any information connecting Cowell to hate groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But that’s something we haven’t taken off the table, and we’ll look into that,” he said. “I know there’s been a lot of conversation on social media regarding that, but I don’t have one piece of evidence that this is race-related.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>BART Discloses Fatalities in Two Other Incidents\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>BART police also reported Monday that they were working to identify a suspect seen in a fatal assault early Saturday at Bay Fair Station in San Leandro. They said that at 1:20 a.m. Saturday, officers responded to a report of a man injured on the station platform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The transit agency said a review of surveillance images showed that a man struck Don Stevens, 47, on the side of the head with a closed fist after an argument. Stevens struck his head on the concrete floor of the platform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The best way I could describe it is cold-cocking him in the side of the head,” Rojas said. “It’s completely unexpected.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police officers performed CPR until paramedics arrived, BART said, but Stevens was declared brain-dead at a local hospital. He was removed from life support and died Sunday afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART police describe the suspect as a black male, 5 feet 8 inches tall with a medium build, shoulder-length dreadlocks in a ponytail, and a scruffy beard. The suspect was wearing a white T-shirt and a green jacket at the time of the incident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11682071\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 606px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/bayfairsuspect.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11682071\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/bayfairsuspect.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"606\" height=\"743\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">BART police released this surveillance image of a man they say is a suspect in a fatal assault on another man early Saturday at Bay Fair Station in San Leandro. \u003ccite>(BART)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>In a third incident, BART reported that Gerald Busbee, 51, of Pittsburg, died last week two days after suffering what appeared to be minor injuries in an altercation at the Pleasant Hill Station with a fellow passenger identified as Abdul Bey, 20.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rojas said that Busbee was injured in a fight last Wednesday apparently provoked by what he described as “mad-dogging” — a staredown — between the two passengers. Busbee suffered a cut lip and a cut on his knee that Rojas described as about one-eighth of an inch long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bey was arrested after a lengthy foot pursuit, Rojas said. He was charged at the time with one count of battery on a transit passenger and five counts of resisting arrest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Busbee later went to a local hospital, complaining he wasn’t feeling well, Rojas said. He was sent home after an examination, but was found dead in bed at his home on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The BART chief said an autopsy had determined that the cause of death appeared to be an infection arising from the cut on Busbee’s knee. He said the investigation is ongoing and BART police are conferring with Contra Costa authorities about charges in the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three fatal incidents in less than a week appear unprecedented in BART history. The last incident in which a BART passenger died as a result of an attack by a fellow rider occurred in January 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s when Carlos Misael Funez-Romero, 19, of Antioch was \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/10827994/suspect-escaped-after-fatal-bart-shooting-on-saturday-night\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">shot and killed\u003c/a> aboard a San Francisco-bound train pulling into the West Oakland station.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prior to that killing, the most recent homicide aboard BART was believed to have occurred in the late 1990s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Funez-Romero killing has not been solved. However, the incident brought to light the fact that virtually all of the “cameras” aboard BART’s train fleet were actually decoys.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency has since installed working cameras on all its cars.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Those are our children.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the midst of social media threads that have pointed to a possible racial motive for a white suspect’s attack on black women, Allums said, “We need the community, especially the African-American community, to stand down. … I’m in fear right now. We don’t know if this was racist, we don’t know if it was random, we don’t know what it was.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said Stop Killing Our Kids would hold a vigil at MacArthur Station from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In answer to a reporter’s question, Rojas said police don’t have any information connecting Cowell to hate groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“But that’s something we haven’t taken off the table, and we’ll look into that,” he said. “I know there’s been a lot of conversation on social media regarding that, but I don’t have one piece of evidence that this is race-related.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>BART Discloses Fatalities in Two Other Incidents\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>BART police also reported Monday that they were working to identify a suspect seen in a fatal assault early Saturday at Bay Fair Station in San Leandro.

Stevens struck his head on the concrete floor of the platform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The best way I could describe it is cold-cocking him in the side of the head,” Rojas said. “It’s completely unexpected.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police officers performed CPR until paramedics arrived, BART said, but Stevens was declared brain-dead at a local hospital.

Busbee suffered a cut lip and a cut on his knee that Rojas described as about one-eighth of an inch long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bey was arrested after a lengthy foot pursuit, Rojas said. He was charged at the time with one count of battery on a transit passenger and five counts of resisting arrest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Busbee later went to a local hospital, complaining he wasn’t feeling well, Rojas said. He was sent home after an examination, but was found dead in bed at his home on Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The BART chief said an autopsy had determined that the cause of death appeared to be an infection arising from the cut on Busbee’s knee. He said the investigation is ongoing and BART police are conferring with Contra Costa authorities about charges in the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The three fatal incidents in less than a week appear unprecedented in BART history.

Workers from some of the biggest tech companies in Silicon Valley sit along the walls of a small, stuffy room at the Women’s Building in San Francisco. About a dozen others jockey for space in the hallway. Many are here straight from work, carrying backpacks and purses laden with laptops. The nervous energy is palpable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the room settles, a few volunteers from the Tech Workers Coalition tack a sign along the back wall. It says: “Tech Workers Demand Justice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a safe space,” says one of the organizers to the crowd. “Raise your hand if you’d like to speak, and I’ll add you to the list.” Hands shoot up, and for two hours, more than 100 tech workers listen and talk openly and critically about the companies they work for. The conversations range from frustrations over the lack of diversity to worries about their company’s relationships with the government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One anecdote that came up again and again throughout the evening: how IBM had built technology to help Nazis murder Jews. At one point, a person standing at the back of the wall said it was up to workers to make sure something like that didn’t happen again. He said that if we don’t build it, no one will. The crowd murmured in agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I often feel like my co-workers just want to focus on building tools and building apps and are not worried about these larger issues,” said one of the volunteers from the Tech Workers Coalition. She was hesitant to talk, and preferred to stay anonymous. She works for a well-known tech company, and believes giving her name could put her job in jeopardy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This latest meeting at the Women’s Building in early July was the first, according to the Tech Workers Coalition, of what will be an ongoing series of forums to educate and assist tech workers who would like to collectively organize. The organization describes itself as an all-volunteer group for employees in the tech industry who are unhappy with what their companies are building and the direction of the industry. And in this politically charged age of the Trump presidency, members of the coalition say the organization is growing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Barriers to Organizing\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last few years, a number of tech worker organizing groups have formed in the Bay Area. Some, like the TechEquity Collaborative, are trying to get those who work in the industry more plugged into the communities they live in and impact. Others, like Silicon Valley Rising, focus on the labor organizing of service workers on tech campuses — the bus drivers, security guards and cafeteria staff who are scrambling to get by as the industry’s wealth transforms the region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But overall, labor unions have had little success enticing the relatively well-paid workers in the industry — the programmers, engineers and product managers. The reasons why are often complex. Some tech workers who spoke at the meeting said big tech companies have created cultures that discourage workers from organizing, like forcing employees to sign nondisclosure agreements, which discourage communication between workers from other companies and also the media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11681071\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 420px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-11681071\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-800x1123.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"420\" height=\"589\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-800x1123.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-160x225.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-1020x1431.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-855x1200.jpg 855w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-1920x2694.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-1180x1656.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-960x1347.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-240x337.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-375x526.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-520x730.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 420px) 100vw, 420px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A flyer from a recent TWC forum urges tech workers to organize. \u003ccite>(Sam Harnett / KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Isolation and Involvement\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By 9 p.m., organizers of the forum at the Women’s Building in San Francisco had to wrap up the discussion, leaving a list of people still waiting to speak.

Workers from some of the biggest tech companies in Silicon Valley sit along the walls of a small, stuffy room at the Women’s Building in San Francisco. About a dozen others jockey for space in the hallway. Many are here straight from work, carrying backpacks and purses laden with laptops. The nervous energy is palpable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the room settles, a few volunteers from the Tech Workers Coalition tack a sign along the back wall. It says: “Tech Workers Demand Justice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a safe space,” says one of the organizers to the crowd. “Raise your hand if you’d like to speak, and I’ll add you to the list.” Hands shoot up, and for two hours, more than 100 tech workers listen and talk openly and critically about the companies they work for. The conversations range from frustrations over the lack of diversity to worries about their company’s relationships with the government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One anecdote that came up again and again throughout the evening: how IBM had built technology to help Nazis murder Jews. At one point, a person standing at the back of the wall said it was up to workers to make sure something like that didn’t happen again. He said that if we don’t build it, no one will. The crowd murmured in agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I often feel like my co-workers just want to focus on building tools and building apps and are not worried about these larger issues,” said one of the volunteers from the Tech Workers Coalition. She was hesitant to talk, and preferred to stay anonymous. She works for a well-known tech company, and believes giving her name could put her job in jeopardy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The organization describes itself as an all-volunteer group for employees in the tech industry who are unhappy with what their companies are building and the direction of the industry. And in this politically charged age of the Trump presidency, members of the coalition say the organization is growing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Barriers to Organizing\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last few years, a number of tech worker organizing groups have formed in the Bay Area. Some, like the TechEquity Collaborative, are trying to get those who work in the industry more plugged into the communities they live in and impact. Others, like Silicon Valley Rising, focus on the labor organizing of service workers on tech campuses — the bus drivers, security guards and cafeteria staff who are scrambling to get by as the industry’s wealth transforms the region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But overall, labor unions have had little success enticing the relatively well-paid workers in the industry — the programmers, engineers and product managers. The reasons why are often complex. Some tech workers who spoke at the meeting said big tech companies have created cultures that discourage workers from organizing, like forcing employees to sign nondisclosure agreements, which discourage communication between workers from other companies and also the media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11681071\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 420px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-11681071\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-800x1123.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"420\" height=\"589\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-800x1123.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-160x225.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-1020x1431.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-855x1200.jpg 855w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-1920x2694.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-1180x1656.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-960x1347.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-240x337.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-375x526.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/07/Flyer-3B-e1531868134316-520x730.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 420px) 100vw, 420px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A flyer from a recent TWC forum urges tech workers to organize. \u003ccite>(Sam Harnett / KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Isolation and Involvement\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By 9 p.m., organizers of the forum at the Women’s Building in San Francisco had to wrap up the discussion, leaving a list of people still waiting to speak.

People have been lane splitting in California for a long time\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>News reports of Californians lane splitting go back to at least the 1960s. Starkey said the practice started as a way for motorcyclists to get through the state’s notoriously bad traffic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As the traffic got slower and slower throughout the decades, [motorcyclists] began the practice of lane splitting or lane sharing by moving in between the stopped rows of traffic on the highways,” Starkey said, “which prevented their vehicles from overheating, and also helped reduce congestion and ultimately let them get to their destination a little bit quicker as well.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>7. Very little data exists on how safe it is\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>One of the big problems with lane splitting is the lack of data on it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"http://lanesplittingislegal.com/assets/studies-surveys/lane-splitting-safety-california_may-29-2015.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2015 study\u003c/a> from the Safe Transportation Research & Education Center at UC Berkeley found that 17 percent of about 6,000 motorcyclists who crashed between June 2012 through August 2013 were lane splitting at the time of their collision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to the study, “Lane-splitting appears to be a relatively safe motorcycle riding strategy if done in traffic moving at 50 mph or less and if motorcyclists do not exceed the speed of other vehicles by more than 15 mph.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the authors also say that the study cannot be used to compare the overall safety of lane splitting:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>To estimate how the risk of being involved in a collision changes when motorcyclists chose to lane-split, we would require information on both the lane-splitting and non-lane-splitting riding that is done by some identifiable sample of motorcyclists. The collection of these data is fraught with problems, and the current study did not attempt to collect such data.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>In other words, researchers would need to collect pre-crash data from motorcyclists who lane split and those who don’t, and see if one population is more likely to get into a crash than the other in order to determine the safety of the practice overall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Data from the \u003ca href=\"https://cdan.nhtsa.gov/STSI.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">National Highway Traffic Safety Administration show\u003c/a> that even though California is the only state in the country where lane splitting is legal, it’s in the middle of the pack when it comes to motorcyclist fatalities per 100,000 registered motorcycles compared to other states. But this doesn’t take into account other differences between state laws, including helmet laws and motorcycle riding culture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the end of the day, there are no conclusive data on how safe or not safe lane splitting is.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>8.
