"content": "\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/search/berkeley+flea+market\">Berkeley Flea Market\u003c/a> is shutting down for February and March — the first time in its 46-year history that it has closed — and may end up relocating from the Ashby BART Station parking lot to a lot on Adeline Street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The weekend outdoor market has been struggling financially in recent years, and organizers said they will use the next few months to regroup and consider future plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The flea market has been suffering for the past three years,” said Charles Gary, a long-time board member of Community Services United (CSU), the Berkeley nonprofit that runs the market, which aims to help homeless and working-class people run their own businesses. “We felt that this would be a good time to reorganize.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group’s expenses include $2,500 in monthly rent to BART, as well as the cost of insurance, security, portable toilets and personnel to assist vendors. It makes money from renting out stalls to vendors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CSU has launched a \u003ca href=\"http://www.gofundme.com/save-the-berkeley-flea-market\">GoFundMe campaign\u003c/a>, hoping to raise $20,000 in donations to keep the market alive. As of Wednesday morning, $2,659 had been contributed by 36 donors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Berkeley Flea Market is in grave danger,” \u003ca href=\"http://www.gofundme.com/save-the-berkeley-flea-market\">a statement\u003c/a> on the GoFundMe web page reads. “Our cash flow is very low, and the rainy season has come. When it rains, we can lose a whole weekend’s earnings. We will only survive if our community supports us. This is an emergency. Please help us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The market, which typically draws about 100 vendors, also recently had to close for two weekends because of storms and smoky conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we don’t operate, we don’t make any money, but we still have the costs,” said CSU board member Andrea Prichett, who said the market is planning to reopen in April. “It’s frightening for [vendors’] livelihood ... It’s important for us to get back into action.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city doesn’t provide any direct funding to the flea market, although Jordan Klein, Berkeley’s manager of economic development, said the city is working with CSU in several ways, including through the city’s new partnership with \u003ca href=\"https://uptimabootcamp.com/\">Uptima Business Bootcamp,\u003c/a> an Oakland-based “business accelerator.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re working directly with the flea market to develop an action plan to help them with their sustainability,” Klein said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We were fortunate enough to be their first client (in Berkeley),” Gary said, adding that CSU has already met with Uptima twice this week, and another meeting is scheduled for Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Berkeley Flea Market’s history — which Gary said doesn’t include ever shutting down in February and March — stretches back to 1973, the year the Ashby BART station opened. Trains didn’t initially run on weekends, prompting people to use the empty parking area to sell secondhand items. It has since grown into a Berkeley institution and an important source of income for some local residents – many of whom are homeless and living on low-wage jobs — as well as a community gathering place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11723860\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 720px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/flea_mkt2.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11723860\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/flea_mkt2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/flea_mkt2.jpg 720w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/flea_mkt2-160x90.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">African art and objects on display at the Berkeley Flea Market. \u003ccite>(Andrew Steltzer/Berkeleyside)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Site's future still unclear\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The future of the 6.3-acre, 600-space Ashby BART parking area, which consists of two lots, has long been a contentious issue in South Berkeley. While BART owns the underground space of the station and the parking area, the city controls the site’s above-ground development rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1985, a court ruled against BART in a lawsuit aimed at moving the flea market off the site, saying the market had the right to stay as long as BART didn’t have a legitimate use for the parking area, according to Prichett.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now Berkeley is eyeing the BART parking lot for affordable housing. And, while the city has said it intends to find a space for the market, many neighbors have expressed concern in public meetings about gentrification, the need for affordable housing and the possible disappearance of the flea market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berkeley has been working on \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2018/03/21/city-seeks-feedback-future-adeline-corridor\">a long-range plan\u003c/a> for the area through its \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/search/Adeline+Corridor\">Adeline Corridor Plan\u003c/a>, a vision for a 100-acre expanse stretching about a mile, from the intersection of Dwight Way and Shattuck Avenue to the Oakland border. The city launched the idea after receiving a $750,000 grant from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city is working with BART and residents on the specifics. The project’s first draft plan and environmental impact report will be ready in April or May, Klein said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One idea that's been floated is to turn the space into a nonprofit-managed “town square” with permanent vendors, live music and other arts and cultural amenities, and a smaller area set aside for the flea market. Gary said a farmer’s market could also be added on Sundays.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re the bridge (between) the community that’s been there for 40 years, and the community that’s coming there daily,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The gentrification factor\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>“There’s been an overall decline in foot traffic in the market,” said Prichett. “We attribute that to gentrification. In the last three to five years, we’ve really seen it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Through dozens of eminent-domain seizures of homes and businesses in the late 1960s and early ‘70s, BART construction radically transformed this South Berkeley neighborhood, which had previously been home to mostly black and Japanese families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last three decades, the racial makeup of the Adeline Corridor neighborhood has changed rapidly. In 1990, nearly half the neighborhood was African-American. By 2010, that percentage had dwindled to about 25 percent, as a growing number of white families moved in, according to a 2016 report from the Adeline Corridor Community Forum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gary said the average home price west of Martin Luther King Jr. Way was $61,000 when the flea market began operating in 1973. “Now it would cost $1.4 or $1.5 million,” he said. “That’s a changing demographic. When all these things are put together, it’s been difficult for us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Dwindling attendance\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Gary said a number of other factors have also contributed to dwindling attendance at the market in recent years, including the growing popularity of online shopping.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For years, every stall in the market would be full,” he said. “We were able to make money. That’s not the case anymore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vendors at the market sell \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2011/06/03/berkeley-flea-market-still-going-strong-after-three-decades\">all sorts of wares\u003c/a>, from Bob Marley pins and African masks to clothes, socks, jewelry and plants. Drummers form a drum circle every weekend. Food from all around the world is also on offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A commenter on Yelp wrote recently of how he appreciated the eclectic nature of the market. “You had vendors that sold all sorts of things,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.yelp.com/biz/berkeley-flea-market-berkeley?hrid=miVLsbtNbjUMufyOj0JkwQ&osq=Ashby+Flea+Market\">wrote Tre S. from Pittsburg\u003c/a>. “You had your bohemian stuff, your hipster stuff, your old records and nick nacks [sic], food stalls, scent and oil stands, jewelry, knock off products and even massage stations throughout this space.

It makes money from renting out stalls to vendors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CSU has launched a \u003ca href=\"http://www.gofundme.com/save-the-berkeley-flea-market\">GoFundMe campaign\u003c/a>, hoping to raise $20,000 in donations to keep the market alive.

When it rains, we can lose a whole weekend’s earnings. We will only survive if our community supports us. This is an emergency. Please help us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The market, which typically draws about 100 vendors, also recently had to close for two weekends because of storms and smoky conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we don’t operate, we don’t make any money, but we still have the costs,” said CSU board member Andrea Prichett, who said the market is planning to reopen in April. “It’s frightening for [vendors’] livelihood ... It’s important for us to get back into action.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city doesn’t provide any direct funding to the flea market, although Jordan Klein, Berkeley’s manager of economic development, said the city is working with CSU in several ways, including through the city’s new partnership with \u003ca href=\"https://uptimabootcamp.com/\">Uptima Business Bootcamp,\u003c/a> an Oakland-based “business accelerator.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re working directly with the flea market to develop an action plan to help them with their sustainability,” Klein said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We were fortunate enough to be their first client (in Berkeley),” Gary said, adding that CSU has already met with Uptima twice this week, and another meeting is scheduled for Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Berkeley Flea Market’s history — which Gary said doesn’t include ever shutting down in February and March — stretches back to 1973, the year the Ashby BART station opened. Trains didn’t initially run on weekends, prompting people to use the empty parking area to sell secondhand items. It has since grown into a Berkeley institution and an important source of income for some local residents – many of whom are homeless and living on low-wage jobs — as well as a community gathering place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11723860\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 720px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/flea_mkt2.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11723860\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/flea_mkt2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/flea_mkt2.jpg 720w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/flea_mkt2-160x90.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">African art and objects on display at the Berkeley Flea Market. \u003ccite>(Andrew Steltzer/Berkeleyside)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Site's future still unclear\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The future of the 6.3-acre, 600-space Ashby BART parking area, which consists of two lots, has long been a contentious issue in South Berkeley. While BART owns the underground space of the station and the parking area, the city controls the site’s above-ground development rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 1985, a court ruled against BART in a lawsuit aimed at moving the flea market off the site, saying the market had the right to stay as long as BART didn’t have a legitimate use for the parking area, according to Prichett.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now Berkeley is eyeing the BART parking lot for affordable housing. And, while the city has said it intends to find a space for the market, many neighbors have expressed concern in public meetings about gentrification, the need for affordable housing and the possible disappearance of the flea market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berkeley has been working on \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2018/03/21/city-seeks-feedback-future-adeline-corridor\">a long-range plan\u003c/a> for the area through its \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/search/Adeline+Corridor\">Adeline Corridor Plan\u003c/a>, a vision for a 100-acre expanse stretching about a mile, from the intersection of Dwight Way and Shattuck Avenue to the Oakland border. The city launched the idea after receiving a $750,000 grant from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission in 2014.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city is working with BART and residents on the specifics. The project’s first draft plan and environmental impact report will be ready in April or May, Klein said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One idea that's been floated is to turn the space into a nonprofit-managed “town square” with permanent vendors, live music and other arts and cultural amenities, and a smaller area set aside for the flea market. Gary said a farmer’s market could also be added on Sundays.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re the bridge (between) the community that’s been there for 40 years, and the community that’s coming there daily,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The gentrification factor\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>“There’s been an overall decline in foot traffic in the market,” said Prichett. “We attribute that to gentrification. In the last three to five years, we’ve really seen it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Through dozens of eminent-domain seizures of homes and businesses in the late 1960s and early ‘70s, BART construction radically transformed this South Berkeley neighborhood, which had previously been home to mostly black and Japanese families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last three decades, the racial makeup of the Adeline Corridor neighborhood has changed rapidly. In 1990, nearly half the neighborhood was African-American. By 2010, that percentage had dwindled to about 25 percent, as a growing number of white families moved in, according to a 2016 report from the Adeline Corridor Community Forum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gary said the average home price west of Martin Luther King Jr. Way was $61,000 when the flea market began operating in 1973. “Now it would cost $1.4 or $1.5 million,” he said. “That’s a changing demographic. When all these things are put together, it’s been difficult for us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Dwindling attendance\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Gary said a number of other factors have also contributed to dwindling attendance at the market in recent years, including the growing popularity of online shopping.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For years, every stall in the market would be full,” he said. “We were able to make money. That’s not the case anymore.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vendors at the market sell \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2011/06/03/berkeley-flea-market-still-going-strong-after-three-decades\">all sorts of wares\u003c/a>, from Bob Marley pins and African masks to clothes, socks, jewelry and plants. Drummers form a drum circle every weekend. Food from all around the world is also on offer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A commenter on Yelp wrote recently of how he appreciated the eclectic nature of the market. “You had vendors that sold all sorts of things,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.yelp.com/biz/berkeley-flea-market-berkeley?hrid=miVLsbtNbjUMufyOj0JkwQ&osq=Ashby+Flea+Market\">wrote Tre S. from Pittsburg\u003c/a>. “You had your bohemian stuff, your hipster stuff, your old records and nick nacks [sic], food stalls, scent and oil stands, jewelry, knock off products and even massage stations throughout this space. They also had some African musicians playing in spurts as I walked along and looked at things.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other commenters on Yelp, though, noted that the market had gone downhill in recent years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This market was once overflowing with local and regional vendors,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.yelp.com/biz/berkeley-flea-market-berkeley?hrid=miVLsbtNbjUMufyOj0JkwQ&osq=Ashby+Flea+Market\">wrote Dee Was Here Z\u003c/a>, who is from Alameda. “It was full and thriving when bootleg movies were hot! One could spend hours learning, listening to the bongo/Congo drummers, eating ethnic foods, smelling the trees, and of course, supporting the locals striving to survive in the Bay. But evolving streaming technologies have permanently altered the landscape and it seems more like an opportunity to get a sunburn in the summer and grab a cool ginger drink to take on your stroll back to your car, meet Uber or hop on BART.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Eyeing a new site\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The market is considering a proposal to relocate to Adeline Street where there would be built-in foot traffic and better visibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’ve been strategizing how to make the market more visible,” said Gary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Klein, the city's economic development manager, said the flea market has obtained the paperwork to apply for the required special-event permit to potentially move to Adeline Street, a process he noted could be “pretty complicated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know that the flea market is a valuable community asset,” he said. “We’ve heard a very clear expression from the community about the value of the flea market.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It came eight days after the arrest of the four defendants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors say the men were members of the Rise Above Movement, a militant white supremacist group that trains in fighting techniques.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They are accused of committing violent acts during an Aug. 11, 2017, nighttime march at the University of Virginia and during a larger rally in Charlottesville the next day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All four made initial court appearances in California last week. The press release says they’re expected to be transferred to Virginia, where they will appear for arraignment and additional proceedings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original Post, Tues. Oct. 2: \u003c/strong>CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Four members of a militant white supremacist group from California were arrested on charges of traveling to Virginia last year to incite a riot and attack counterprotesters at a white nationalist rally that turned deadly, federal authorities said Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defendants — Benjamin Drake Daley, Michael Paul Miselis, Thomas Walter Gillen and Cole Evan White — are part of the Rise Above Movement, which espouses anti-Semitic views and meets regularly in public parks to train in boxing and other fighting techniques, according to an affidavit written by an FBI agent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The affidavit alleges the four were “among the most violent individuals present in Charlottesville” in August 2017 during a torch-lit march on the University of Virginia campus and a larger rally in downtown the following day. It says photos and video footage shows they attacked counterprotesters, “which in some cases resulted in serious injuries.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The men have also taken part in “acts of violence” at political rallies in Huntington Beach, Berkeley and other places, the affidavit alleges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the men — Cole Evan White — \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11611785/free-speech-debate-should-top-dog-worker-be-out-of-job-for-attending-white-supremacist-rally\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">is a former employee of the Top Dog restaurant in Berkeley\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly after the violence in Charlottesville, Top Dog issued a statement saying restaurant staff had confronted White about his participation in the rally, and that White had voluntarily resigned. A tweet from Aug. 12, 2017 purports to identify White in a torch-carrying crowd at the white supremacist rally:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/YesYoureRacist/status/896423173914230784\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White was also involved in previous white supremacist rallies that turned violent, according to Emily Marshall, who said she was assaulted by him at a Berkeley rally in April, 2017 after she had been punched in the face by \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11611600/californian-who-helped-organize-charlottesville-protests-used-berkeley-as-a-test-run\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nathan Damigo\u003c/a>, a leading white nationalist in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Damigo is not among the four men arrested this week over the violence in Charlottesville.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11611600/californian-who-helped-organize-charlottesville-protests-used-berkeley-as-a-test-run\">Californian Who Helped Lead Charlottesville Protests Used Berkeley as a Test Run\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11611600/californian-who-helped-organize-charlottesville-protests-used-berkeley-as-a-test-run\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/20170813_NathanDamigo_Credit_BertJohnson-1-1038x576.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“This is a group that essentially subscribes to an anti-Semitic, racist ideology, and then organizes, trains and deploys to various political rallies, not only to espouse this particular ideology but also to engage in acts of violence against folks who are taking a contrary point of view,” U.S. Attorney Thomas Cullen said at a news conference in Charlottesville held to announce the charges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All four men were arrested early Tuesday morning, Cullen said. Three of them — Daley and Gillen, of Redondo Beach, and Miselis, of Lawndale — were expected to make initial court appearances later Tuesday, while White, of Clayton, was due in court Wednesday, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn’t clear if the men had attorneys who could comment on their behalf, and attempts to reach their relatives were not immediately successful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cullen said each defendant faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted on the two counts they each face: traveling to incite riots and conspiracy to riot. However, defendants often get less than the maximum under federal sentencing guidelines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The arrests come more than a year after hundreds of white nationalists descended on Charlottesville in part to protest the planned removal of a statue of Confederate Gen.

It came eight days after the arrest of the four defendants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prosecutors say the men were members of the Rise Above Movement, a militant white supremacist group that trains in fighting techniques.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They are accused of committing violent acts during an Aug. 11, 2017, nighttime march at the University of Virginia and during a larger rally in Charlottesville the next day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All four made initial court appearances in California last week. The press release says they’re expected to be transferred to Virginia, where they will appear for arraignment and additional proceedings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Original Post, Tues. Oct. 2: \u003c/strong>CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Four members of a militant white supremacist group from California were arrested on charges of traveling to Virginia last year to incite a riot and attack counterprotesters at a white nationalist rally that turned deadly, federal authorities said Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The defendants — Benjamin Drake Daley, Michael Paul Miselis, Thomas Walter Gillen and Cole Evan White — are part of the Rise Above Movement, which espouses anti-Semitic views and meets regularly in public parks to train in boxing and other fighting techniques, according to an affidavit written by an FBI agent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The affidavit alleges the four were “among the most violent individuals present in Charlottesville” in August 2017 during a torch-lit march on the University of Virginia campus and a larger rally in downtown the following day. It says photos and video footage shows they attacked counterprotesters, “which in some cases resulted in serious injuries.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The men have also taken part in “acts of violence” at political rallies in Huntington Beach, Berkeley and other places, the affidavit alleges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the men — Cole Evan White — \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11611785/free-speech-debate-should-top-dog-worker-be-out-of-job-for-attending-white-supremacist-rally\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">is a former employee of the Top Dog restaurant in Berkeley\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly after the violence in Charlottesville, Top Dog issued a statement saying restaurant staff had confronted White about his participation in the rally, and that White had voluntarily resigned. A tweet from Aug. 12, 2017 purports to identify White in a torch-carrying crowd at the white supremacist rally:\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The \u003ca href=\"https://www.berkeleyside.com/2018/08/16/almost-60-year-old-brennans-restaurant-in-berkeley-is-closing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">word went around last month\u003c/a> that the proprietors had been hit with a 25 percent rent increase and would shut the doors on Sept. 15.

Lots of gray heads — and lots of younger people, too, a strikingly diverse crowd — lining up for a last chance at a turkey-mashed potato-lots-of-gravy dinner.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Day after day, night after night, the parade of last-chancers has continued.

While we sat at the bar, members of his extended family filtered in for a final Brennan’s afternoon. It was a reminder of Brennan's roots — originally a magnet for workers in all-but-vanished industrial West Berkeley, a place that was friendly to families and, well, just friendly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11692423\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11692423\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a-800x572.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"572\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a-800x572.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a-160x114.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a-1020x729.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a-1200x858.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a-1180x844.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a-960x687.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a-240x172.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a-375x268.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/09/brennans180913a-520x372.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The long, long line Thursday night for dinner at Brennan's. \u003ccite>(Patricia Yollin/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The bar’s winding down has made me reflect a little on my own history with the place.

If you happened in at noontime, local workers (Berkeley had an industrial district back then, though one that was already in decline) were loading up on turkey neck lunches and grabbing beers. Early in the evening almost any night you'd find families enjoying the cheap eats. Later, the place would get going; on Friday and Saturday nights it wasn't unusual to find virtually every seat at every table taken and a crush of bodies waiting for drink orders that four or five bartenders would be hustling to fill. The business seemed to run full bore nearly till closing time, 2 a.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tastes and habits change. Over time, going into Brennan's after a softball game, maybe, or when my wife and I would go in for an Irish coffee after an evening out, we started to notice the crowds weren't quite so big. Some nights, just two bartenders were working, even on the weekends. Then just one. And the place would be virtually deserted by midnight; and then, if you got there at midnight, it would be closed. It would take a long time-lapse to capture the process, but the nighttime business has evaporated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's about to change in other ways, too: A developer showed up and bought the property upon which Brennan's plebeian box of a building sits. A big residential and commercial project is planned for the site. As part of the deal, the bar will be relocated to the old Southern Pacific station across the parking lot, a building that last housed a very good Asian fusion restaurant called Xanadu that went belly up several years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I'm not sure where everyone went. Probably to establishments that are about more than getting a drink, draining it, and getting a refill and another refill and another, long into the night, talking about whatever you're going to talk about as you get less lucid and more eloquent. Berkeley has some nice bistros that serve food in elegant and pricey bites; you order alcohol off a wine menu or choose from a list of microbrews and retro and nouveau cocktails. Everything is well thought out and modern, everything tastes good, and the atmosphere tends toward the genteel; enough so that I think you'd get a funny look from the sharply dressed drinkologist across the zinc bar if you asked for an Irish coffee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last night, after a day of little jobs around the house and finally getting the taxes done, my wife asked if I wanted to go out and get an Irish coffee, shorthand for, \"Do you want to go down to Brennan's?\" Through one thing and another, we didn't leave the house until just after 11. We drove over to University, then headed west toward the freeway. When we got to Fourth Street, the Brennan's corner, I looked over at the place. The lights inside were on, but there was something about the scene that said \"closed.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We parked and went up to what used to look like the main entrance. The doors were locked. But we could see people inside, and we knew that sometimes those doors aren't used at night. So we walked to a side entrance off the street. Locked again. Then around into the parking lot, and finally, an open door. It was 11:20, and there were about eight people inside, mostly grouped in pairs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We walked up to the bar, where one of the proprietors, a woman I believe is one of the founders' granddaughters, kept her back to us as she studied papers on a clipboard. Then a guy who might have been the bartender, said, \"Sorry, folks, we're closed.\" So no Irish coffee for us. We drove around Berkeley a little afterward and decided that there was no place we could think of that would both serve an Irish coffee and fit our notion of comfort. So we wound up stopping at the store, buying the ingredients, and making our own at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But: a real, honest-to-goodness bar locked up at 40 minutes to midnight?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the one hand, you can hardly blame the proprietors for saying \"last call\" as they watch eight die-hards nurse their drinks as the clock drags toward midnight. That level of patronage doesn't even pay the electric bill. On the other, the whole point of Brennan's for me was a place you could stop by without thinking about the time. That part of the business is dead, and it's hard to imagine that new quarters, without some fundamental change in the business — Brennan's bistro? Chez Brennan's? — will bring it back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I know: a small loss in the big scheme. The meaning is entirely personal. Still, the place had a good run, and it gave me somewhere to make a proposal one night a long time ago. Long life to the memories.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The lights inside were on, but there was something about the scene that said \"closed.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We parked and went up to what used to look like the main entrance. The doors were locked. But we could see people inside, and we knew that sometimes those doors aren't used at night. So we walked to a side entrance off the street. Locked again. Then around into the parking lot, and finally, an open door. It was 11:20, and there were about eight people inside, mostly grouped in pairs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We walked up to the bar, where one of the proprietors, a woman I believe is one of the founders' granddaughters, kept her back to us as she studied papers on a clipboard. Then a guy who might have been the bartender, said, \"Sorry, folks, we're closed.\" So no Irish coffee for us. We drove around Berkeley a little afterward and decided that there was no place we could think of that would both serve an Irish coffee and fit our notion of comfort. So we wound up stopping at the store, buying the ingredients, and making our own at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But: a real, honest-to-goodness bar locked up at 40 minutes to midnight?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the one hand, you can hardly blame the proprietors for saying \"last call\" as they watch eight die-hards nurse their drinks as the clock drags toward midnight. That level of patronage doesn't even pay the electric bill. On the other, the whole point of Brennan's for me was a place you could stop by without thinking about the time. That part of the business is dead, and it's hard to imagine that new quarters, without some fundamental change in the business — Brennan's bistro? Chez Brennan's? — will bring it back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Ron Dellums, an icon of Bay Area progressive politics who served on the Berkeley City Council, in Congress and as mayor of Oakland, has died at the age of 82. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums' nephew, Berkeley City Councilman Ben Bartlett, said Monday morning Dellums died Sunday night in Washington, D.C. The cause is reported to have been prostate cancer. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sandre Swanson, a former Dellums staffer who went on the represent Oakland in the state Assembly, said Monday his late boss “was considered the conscience of the Congress because he was uncompromising in his quest for peace and for social and economic justice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The contributions that Congressman Dellums made to our East Bay community, the nation, and the world are too innumerable to count,\" Rep. Barbara Lee, D-Oakland, said in a statement. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee, also a former Dellums aide, was elected after he abruptly resigned his seat in 1998. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel blessed to have called Congressman Dellums my dear friend, predecessor, and mentor,\" Lee said. \"I will miss him tremendously, and I will hold dear to my heart the many lessons I learned from this great public servant. My condolences are with the Dellums family, friends, and loved ones. His legacy and spirit will be forever with us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf issued a statement calling Dellums “a true American hero.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Ron Dellums governed from a place of morality and compassion, and his political activism shed light on injustices within our country and all over the world,” Schaaf said. “His progressive values set the bedrock for Oakland values, and his life of public service will continue to inspire all of us to fight for a more just and equitable society.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums was a fixture in East Bay politics for more than 40 years, serving briefly on the City Council in Berkeley before winning \u003ca href=\"http://history.house.gov/People/Listing/D/DELLUMS,-Ronald-V--(D000222)/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">14 terms\u003c/a> in Congress. He closed out his political career with a single term as mayor of Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ronald Vernie Dellums was born in Oakland on Nov. 24, 1935, the son of Verney and Willa Dellums. His uncle, C.L. Dellums, served as president of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and was an early leader in the Bay Area civil rights movement. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums wrote in his 2000 autobiography, \"\u003ca href=\"https://books.google.com/books?id=PeIjwqwt4BQC\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Lying Down With the Lions\u003c/a>,\" that his uncle encouraged his father to come to California from Texas to enroll at UC Berkeley. Before that happened, Dellums said, his parents met and married. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"After marriage and children, they knew that some of their dreams would be fulfilled only through the lives of their children,\" Dellums wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He attended St. Patrick's, a Roman Catholic elementary school in West Oakland, then Westlake Junior High School, McClymonds and Oakland Tech high schools. In his autobiography, Dellums said that though he succeeded at Tech at first, he lost interest in school after he was rejected, twice, for a spot on the school's varsity baseball squad. He enrolled in an engineering program at the City College of San Francisco, but soon dropped out. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At loose ends, Dellums enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1954, serving two years. He wrote that he found basic training to be \"shockingly strenuous and sometimes brutal. I thought it was the most horrible thing I had ever gotten into.\" But over time, he said, he adapted to the Corps' demand for discipline and found it helped him mature. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he said one incident turned him against the idea of serving beyond his original enlistment. Despite receiving the highest score on a battery of tests given to his training battalion, he was rejected for Officer Candidate School only because he was black. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"From that day forward, I counted down every day and hour until my discharge,\" Dellums wrote. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taking advantage of the GI Bill after leaving the service, he received a bachelor's degree from San Francisco State University and a master's in social work from UC Berkeley in the early 1960s, just as the college city was coming to national attention as a center of civil rights activism and opposition to the Vietnam War. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums was elected to the Berkeley City Council in 1967. He had served less than a full term when he ran against six-term incumbent Democratic Rep. Jeffery Cohelan. Dellums beat Cohelan, whom he accused of \"expedient liberalism\" for switching from support of war to an antiwar stance, in the primary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums then became something of a national figure in the general election as Vice President Spiro Agnew singled him out as \"a political extremist who has no qualms about hobnobbing with political fanatics” — including the Black Panthers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Ron-Dellums-former-congressman-and-Oakland-13116263.php\">the San Francisco Chronicle recalls\u003c/a>, Dellums was quick with his riposte.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums beat Republican challenger John E. Healy, a 25-year old Vietnam veteran, in the November election, getting 60 percent of the vote. He maintained a firm hold on the seat for the rest of his congressional tenure. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums was in the vanguard of a series of liberal causes during his 14 terms:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>He was a leading voice in opposing the Vietnam War and drawing attention to U.S. atrocities against Vietnamese civilians.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>He was one of the first in Congress to call for U.S. action to end South Africa's racist policy of apartheid.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>He campaigned against expansion of Department of Defense spending and major new weapons programs, including the B-2 bomber and MX nuclear missile system.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>He launched a legal challenge questioning President George H.W. Bush's authority to order the major U.S. military buildup that followed Iraq's invasion of Kuwait and preceded the Gulf War of 1991.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>He was among those in Congress who tried to persuade the Clinton administration to lift the ban of gays and lesbians serving in the military. \u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Former Dellums staffer Sandre Swanson said the struggle to end apartheid consumed Dellums. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I remember when Ron took up the cause of Nelson Mandela and the Free South African movement, that's when he he grew a beard,\" Swanson said. \"He said, 'I'm going to shave this beard when Nelson Mandela is free,' although he did keep his beard after Nelson Mandela was free.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After Mandela was released from prison, in 1990, he received a rapturous welcome during an appearance at the Oakland Coliseum. Swanson said Mandela came to the East Bay \"specifically to thank Ron Dellums for his his words in Congress and every year put a resolution against apartheid.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He was the voice, he was the soldier crying out in the wilderness alone on those issues,\" said Piper Dellums, one of Dellums' five children, on KQED's \"Forum\" program Monday. \"But he was also ... a hero to the invisible, to the oppressed, to the lost and shattered, the marginalized, the despised, the abused and the faceless. ... There was not one area of progressive ideology, of peace, of human dignities and rights, that he didn't cover. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond his signature progressive campaigns, Dellums was also noted for delivering for his district. He was credited with securing a $55 million federal grant for Oakland's Chabot Space and Science Center and leaning on the Federal Emergency Management Agency to deliver on millions of dollars in aid due to Oakland after the catastrophic Oakland Hills Fire of 1991. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums resigned from Congress in February 1998, just over halfway through his final term, and embarked on a career as a private consultant and lobbyist.

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel blessed to have called Congressman Dellums my dear friend, predecessor, and mentor,\" Lee said. \"I will miss him tremendously, and I will hold dear to my heart the many lessons I learned from this great public servant. My condolences are with the Dellums family, friends, and loved ones. His legacy and spirit will be forever with us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf issued a statement calling Dellums “a true American hero.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Ron Dellums governed from a place of morality and compassion, and his political activism shed light on injustices within our country and all over the world,” Schaaf said. “His progressive values set the bedrock for Oakland values, and his life of public service will continue to inspire all of us to fight for a more just and equitable society.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums was a fixture in East Bay politics for more than 40 years, serving briefly on the City Council in Berkeley before winning \u003ca href=\"http://history.house.gov/People/Listing/D/DELLUMS,-Ronald-V--(D000222)/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">14 terms\u003c/a> in Congress. He closed out his political career with a single term as mayor of Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ronald Vernie Dellums was born in Oakland on Nov. 24, 1935, the son of Verney and Willa Dellums. His uncle, C.L. Dellums, served as president of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and was an early leader in the Bay Area civil rights movement. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums wrote in his 2000 autobiography, \"\u003ca href=\"https://books.google.com/books?id=PeIjwqwt4BQC\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Lying Down With the Lions\u003c/a>,\" that his uncle encouraged his father to come to California from Texas to enroll at UC Berkeley. Before that happened, Dellums said, his parents met and married. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"After marriage and children, they knew that some of their dreams would be fulfilled only through the lives of their children,\" Dellums wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He attended St. Patrick's, a Roman Catholic elementary school in West Oakland, then Westlake Junior High School, McClymonds and Oakland Tech high schools. In his autobiography, Dellums said that though he succeeded at Tech at first, he lost interest in school after he was rejected, twice, for a spot on the school's varsity baseball squad. He enrolled in an engineering program at the City College of San Francisco, but soon dropped out. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At loose ends, Dellums enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1954, serving two years. He wrote that he found basic training to be \"shockingly strenuous and sometimes brutal. I thought it was the most horrible thing I had ever gotten into.\" But over time, he said, he adapted to the Corps' demand for discipline and found it helped him mature. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he said one incident turned him against the idea of serving beyond his original enlistment. Despite receiving the highest score on a battery of tests given to his training battalion, he was rejected for Officer Candidate School only because he was black. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"From that day forward, I counted down every day and hour until my discharge,\" Dellums wrote. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taking advantage of the GI Bill after leaving the service, he received a bachelor's degree from San Francisco State University and a master's in social work from UC Berkeley in the early 1960s, just as the college city was coming to national attention as a center of civil rights activism and opposition to the Vietnam War. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums was elected to the Berkeley City Council in 1967. He had served less than a full term when he ran against six-term incumbent Democratic Rep. Jeffery Cohelan. Dellums beat Cohelan, whom he accused of \"expedient liberalism\" for switching from support of war to an antiwar stance, in the primary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums then became something of a national figure in the general election as Vice President Spiro Agnew singled him out as \"a political extremist who has no qualms about hobnobbing with political fanatics” — including the Black Panthers. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Ron-Dellums-former-congressman-and-Oakland-13116263.php\">the San Francisco Chronicle recalls\u003c/a>, Dellums was quick with his riposte.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums beat Republican challenger John E. Healy, a 25-year old Vietnam veteran, in the November election, getting 60 percent of the vote. He maintained a firm hold on the seat for the rest of his congressional tenure. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums was in the vanguard of a series of liberal causes during his 14 terms:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>He was a leading voice in opposing the Vietnam War and drawing attention to U.S. atrocities against Vietnamese civilians.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>He was one of the first in Congress to call for U.S. action to end South Africa's racist policy of apartheid.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>He campaigned against expansion of Department of Defense spending and major new weapons programs, including the B-2 bomber and MX nuclear missile system.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>He launched a legal challenge questioning President George H.W. Bush's authority to order the major U.S. military buildup that followed Iraq's invasion of Kuwait and preceded the Gulf War of 1991.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>He was among those in Congress who tried to persuade the Clinton administration to lift the ban of gays and lesbians serving in the military. \u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Former Dellums staffer Sandre Swanson said the struggle to end apartheid consumed Dellums. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I remember when Ron took up the cause of Nelson Mandela and the Free South African movement, that's when he he grew a beard,\" Swanson said. \"He said, 'I'm going to shave this beard when Nelson Mandela is free,' although he did keep his beard after Nelson Mandela was free.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After Mandela was released from prison, in 1990, he received a rapturous welcome during an appearance at the Oakland Coliseum. Swanson said Mandela came to the East Bay \"specifically to thank Ron Dellums for his his words in Congress and every year put a resolution against apartheid.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He was the voice, he was the soldier crying out in the wilderness alone on those issues,\" said Piper Dellums, one of Dellums' five children, on KQED's \"Forum\" program Monday. \"But he was also ... a hero to the invisible, to the oppressed, to the lost and shattered, the marginalized, the despised, the abused and the faceless. ... There was not one area of progressive ideology, of peace, of human dignities and rights, that he didn't cover. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond his signature progressive campaigns, Dellums was also noted for delivering for his district. He was credited with securing a $55 million federal grant for Oakland's Chabot Space and Science Center and leaning on the Federal Emergency Management Agency to deliver on millions of dollars in aid due to Oakland after the catastrophic Oakland Hills Fire of 1991. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dellums resigned from Congress in February 1998, just over halfway through his final term, and embarked on a career as a private consultant and lobbyist. That career was interrupted in 2007, when Dellums entered the race to succeed Jerry Brown as mayor of Oakland. He won that race, his last. His tenure coincided with a troubled period, occurring at the same time as the onset of a deep national recession that hit the city hard. His term was also marked by unrest related to the BART police killing of Oscar Grant. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
