Kamau Bell\u003c/em>: I mean, it's everything that as a Black person you know is true in this country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All year, since the pandemic started, we have seen white people armed to the teeth, showing up at capitals all over the country. And all of that was a rehearsal for this. If they hadn't gotten away with showing up in Michigan and Sacramento and all these other capitals around the country, they would have been less interested in going to D.C.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then on top of that, you have the fact that the president has, since the George Floyd protests, been going after Black Lives Matter, going after Antifa — and yet with these people, he basically put out an Evite and invited them to the Capitol, and then he talked to them once they got there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So I'm not surprised they weren't arrested, because they were where they were supposed to be.

Why did you use that term?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If a kid drives to a Black church in Charleston and shoots Black people during Bible study that he was invited into, that's not crime. That's terrorism. He's trying to terrorize those people. He's trying to terrorize the people of that church and the Black people of that town. If Timothy McVeigh destroys a federal building, that's not a crime. That's terrorism. We have to be clear about this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\"]'I've heard people say, call it what you will: terrorism, extremism. No, no, no. Call it terrorism. That's what the word was invented for.'[/pullquote]I've heard people say, call it what you will: terrorism, extremism. No, no, no. Call it terrorism. That's what the word was invented for. But we have a problem doing that when the people look like what we are \u003cem>told\u003c/em> are patriots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>It doesn't sound like you didn't see this coming, but did you know it would look like it did yesterday?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I mean, I would like to say I saw it coming. I feel like everybody I know saw it coming. Everybody I work with saw it coming. And we've been talking about it for years. So I don't want to say like I was some sort of Nostradamus.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But I do think that Trump has been very clear about who he was, I mean, since way before he ran for president. And the things that should have disqualified him did not disqualify him, which prove that America is run on white supremacy. The minute you call America's first Black president an illegitimate president, that should preclude you from running for president. But it did not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So for me and the people I know — people in Berkeley, people in Oakland who I work with, people I've worked with nationally on these issues — we have all been saying 'he's telling us what he's going to do, right?'\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"w-kamau-bell\"]So it's not good to be right. And it also is shocking to see it, because you think they're not going to let these people just walk into the Capitol. I didn't think they would be able to just walk in, and I didn't think they'd get just escorted out. But I'm not surprised this happened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Does what happened yesterday sum up for you the legacy that Donald Trump leaves behind: a nation even more divided?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I mean, yes, I think in many ways, if America is a book, this is the end of the book — and now there's a chance to write a new book.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the legend of America as the greatest country in the world, land of the free, home of the brave — all over the world they know that's not right. All over the world, they know that's a lie. And if we keep telling ourselves that and we keep teaching it in the schools, were lying to ourselves. That's over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the reasons this country was great, anyway, is because people from all over the world wanted to come here, because they bought into that idea of America being the land of the free and the way you could make your dreams happen. Those people aren't coming anymore — in large part they can't, because our borders are closed because of COVID.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the book on America is over. Now we have to write a new book, and where that goes is up to us. But we have to make a choice. And a lot of that choice for me resolves around, do we prosecute Trump for the terrorism that he encouraged yesterday and has encouraged throughout his presidency?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Do you have some hope about the state of our democracy, despite the heartbreak of yesterday?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\"]'If America is a book, this is the end of the book and now there's a chance to write a new book. ... And where that goes is up to us.'[/pullquote]I mean, you know, with \"United Shades of America,\" I travel around the country talking to people who are working hard to save and/or reinvent this democracy. The season we're filming now, I've been in Portland talking to Black Lives Matter activists about how they're trying to transform Portland. While at the same time, in many ways, white terrorists are coming in from outside of Portland, around Oregon, to confront them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]I went to Atlanta to talk to the New Georgia Project. And Atlanta is an amazing place, where Black people really are trying to transform Atlanta. And yet it has some of the biggest wealth disparity and economic disparity of the country, especially for Black people.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And those people are all working hard to transform the system. But they know that the deck is stacked against them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

I didn't think they would be able to just walk in, and I didn't think they'd get just escorted out. But I'm not surprised this happened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Does what happened yesterday sum up for you the legacy that Donald Trump leaves behind: a nation even more divided?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I mean, yes, I think in many ways, if America is a book, this is the end of the book — and now there's a chance to write a new book.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the legend of America as the greatest country in the world, land of the free, home of the brave — all over the world they know that's not right. All over the world, they know that's a lie. And if we keep telling ourselves that and we keep teaching it in the schools, were lying to ourselves. That's over.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the reasons this country was great, anyway, is because people from all over the world wanted to come here, because they bought into that idea of America being the land of the free and the way you could make your dreams happen. Those people aren't coming anymore — in large part they can't, because our borders are closed because of COVID.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So the book on America is over. Now we have to write a new book, and where that goes is up to us. But we have to make a choice. And a lot of that choice for me resolves around, do we prosecute Trump for the terrorism that he encouraged yesterday and has encouraged throughout his presidency?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Do you have some hope about the state of our democracy, despite the heartbreak of yesterday?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

So much heartbreak. But all year long, there were people who stepped up, made sacrifices and kept going. As we ring in a new year, we revisit some of our favorite stories about the people who inspired us in 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11812389/havent-hugged-my-mom-in-a-month-kids-of-health-care-workers-feel-the-strain\">‘Haven’t Hugged My Mom in a Month’: Kids of Health Care Workers Feel the Strain\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In April, when we first found ourselves in the grip of the pandemic, we knew it was taking a big toll on health care workers and wondered how it was impacting their families. Host Sasha Khokha brought us a story about a pair of teen siblings from Clovis, near Fresno. Their mom works as an ER nurse at Highland Hospital in Oakland. She sleeps in a trailer when she’s in the Bay Area, but when she gets a day off, she makes the three-hour drive home to see her kids. With the coronavirus, those visits got tougher.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11818037/in-solidarity-people-activist-with-autism-works-to-ensure-nobody-in-community-left-behind\">‘In Solidarity, People!’: Activist With Autism Works to Ensure Nobody in Community Left Behind\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In May, we brought you a show about how the pandemic was making it tough for a lot of Californians with disabilities. Our intern Ariella Markowitz brought us a story about a man named Héctor Ramírez. He’s autistic and a disability rights activist in Los Angeles. His daily routine was really important to him, but the pandemic disrupted all that.

A successful rapper who’d had run-ins with the police himself, Ferreira had joined law enforcement for one reason: to fight a white supremacist system from the inside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was thinking about occupying a badge and a gun, and using it in accordance with my values,” he said. “I needed to know if that was impossible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As he started taking statements from bystanders, Ferreira said he thought, “I was blocks away from this when it happened. … What is this going to turn into?”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Lesser of Two Evils\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Before he became a cop, Ferreira didn’t trust them very much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He grew up in the 1980s and 1990s in West Oakland, the home of the Black Panthers. Ferreira’s mom was a former Nation of Islam teacher who worked for Pacific Gas & Electric, and she raised her son on a steady diet of Black revolutionary theory.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was also the height of the crack epidemic, a public health crisis that fueled crime. Some people turned to the police, but as Ferreira put it, “you’re kind of choosing a lesser of two evils.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the late 1990s, a group of Oakland Police Department officers known as the Riders allegedly kidnapped, beat and falsely arrested countless West Oakland residents. The city eventually settled the case and agreed to pay nearly $11 million to 119 different plaintiffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he got to high school, Ferreira tried to keep his head down. He focused on football. That’s where he met Jihad Akbar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was pretty much getting straight A’s all through high school,” said Ferreira. “He was the most politically aware of any of us, and he was a leader.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Akbar attended UC Berkeley and grew into a dedicated activist, devoting his time to AIDS prevention and juvenile justice. But as the years went by, Ferreira said his friend began struggling with mental health issues and started to self-medicate. Akbar tried to get help but had trouble getting into a residential treatment program. Sometimes he’d get high and get paranoid about law enforcement, and Ferreira would spend hours just sitting with him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, in October 2002, Ferreira got a call from a friend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He told me that Jihad was dead and the police killed him,” Ferreira said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11837446\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11837446\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/Cotsirilos_Jinhos-Journey_pic-2-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"At Berkeley High School, Jinho Ferreira (wearing a number 25 jersey in the second row) said he focused on football.

Akbar allegedly ran into San Francisco’s Baghdad Cafe and stole several knives, then started dancing with them in the street outside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was obviously having some type of mental breakdown,” Ferreira said. “Two cops showed up. He supposedly lunged at one of them, and they shot him, and he died.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Akbar’s death made the news. Ferreira remembered one article describing his friend as a violent homeless man. He said it didn’t mention that Akbar had gone to UC Berkeley or been a straight-A student.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can’t leave it up to the guy that wrote that article about Jihad to tell the world about him,” he remembered thinking. “It’s literally my job to tell the world about him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At this point, Ferreira had been rapping for several years. In 2003, he got together with a singer and a guitarist at an Oakland recording studio and started a group called Flipsyde.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5QEAI_O2IA\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you go back through all our songs, 90-95% of them deal with how this system victimizes people,” he said. “I’m carrying everything with me — all the people that have passed away with me — and I’m working as hard as I possibly can.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group took off. Flipsyde traveled the world with Snoop Dogg, Akon and the Black Eyed Peas. In 2006, NBC made their song “Someday” the theme song for their Winter Olympics coverage. But they were always a bigger deal abroad than they were back home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I needed to do more than just write a song,” Ferreira said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Ferreira, the turning point came on New Year’s Day in 2009. In the early hours of the morning, Oscar Grant was shot by a white police officer on the platform of Oakland’s Fruitvale BART Station. His death was filmed by bystanders. Ferreira watched the video and took to the streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I go to the protest,” he said. “And I remember a journalist was interviewing artists. And he said, ‘What can we do as artists to make sure this never happens again?’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Jinho Ferreira, artist and former Alameda County sheriff's deputy\"]‘I was thinking about occupying a badge and a gun, and using it in accordance with my values.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The question left him reeling, then frustrated him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s one person that decided to pull the trigger to kill my partner, Jihad,” he said. “He was a cop. [And] if a miracle happens and we get rid of this cop, who’s going to replace him?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ferreira said he struggled with that question for a while. Then, he said, “I thought, ‘I should start thinking about going into law enforcement.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Surviving the Battle\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>When Ferreira first told his family he was thinking of becoming a cop, they were terrified for him — and a few relatives were angry. Ferreira wondered whether he would be allowed to join law enforcement at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve been all over the world, rapping in front of Snoop’s weed plants,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in 2010, with a friend’s encouragement, Ferreira put down $5,000 and enrolled in the Alameda County Sheriff Academy. On his first day, he walked into a classroom with over 50 other recruits. Only five of them were Black men.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you’re in there, it’s eye opening,” Ferreira said. “You see all these people being trained, and a lot of them are good dudes. It’s like being on a football team.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officers who trained the recruits were tough and protective, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Their whole thing is, ‘My students will survive the battle. They will live,’” said Ferreira. “You watch videos of cops being killed, and they pick those videos apart.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ferreira doesn’t remember watching or analyzing any videos where the cops were the ones that killed people. According to Alameda County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Sgt. Ray Kelly, the department now includes videos of officer-involved shootings in their trainings, but they didn’t when Ferreira was in the academy. Ferreira also said they didn’t really go into the history of the communities they’d be policing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He expected to get kicked out of the Academy. Instead, he gave a speech at their graduation. By 2011, Ferreira was on the force, policing some of the same neighborhoods he was born and raised in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Good Cops and Bad Cops\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Some calls bothered him more than others. Like the one that came in about “a Black man with a knife at a bar.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was threatening the bartender and wouldn’t pay,” Ferreira said. “I was the first dude on scene. The woman was screaming. I just ran in, and I saw him. We definitely made eye contact, and he kind of just paused, and he looked at me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ferreira said he must have drawn his gun at some point, but he can’t remember doing it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He backed away from the bar,” he said. “And I just remember talking to him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other cops arrived at the scene and put the man in handcuffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It wasn’t until after that I thought about Jihad,” said Ferreira. “If I was that cop, would I have pulled the trigger?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"police-violence\" label=\"related stories\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now that Ferreira was in law enforcement, certain details about his friend Akbar’s death stood out to him. The cop who shot Akbar said he lunged forward with a knife.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I know how we were trained in the Academy,” Ferreira said. “I know what use-of-force laws matter, and I know how the reports are going to be written. [That] pretty much determines whether or not the cop is going to get off.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Cops can do a lot, legally,” he added. “Being in law enforcement … you’ll read an article where a cop shot somebody, or you’ll see it happen.

A successful rapper who’d had run-ins with the police himself, Ferreira had joined law enforcement for one reason: to fight a white supremacist system from the inside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was thinking about occupying a badge and a gun, and using it in accordance with my values,” he said. “I needed to know if that was impossible.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As he started taking statements from bystanders, Ferreira said he thought, “I was blocks away from this when it happened. … What is this going to turn into?”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Lesser of Two Evils\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Before he became a cop, Ferreira didn’t trust them very much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He grew up in the 1980s and 1990s in West Oakland, the home of the Black Panthers. Ferreira’s mom was a former Nation of Islam teacher who worked for Pacific Gas & Electric, and she raised her son on a steady diet of Black revolutionary theory.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was also the height of the crack epidemic, a public health crisis that fueled crime. Some people turned to the police, but as Ferreira put it, “you’re kind of choosing a lesser of two evils.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the late 1990s, a group of Oakland Police Department officers known as the Riders allegedly kidnapped, beat and falsely arrested countless West Oakland residents. The city eventually settled the case and agreed to pay nearly $11 million to 119 different plaintiffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he got to high school, Ferreira tried to keep his head down. He focused on football. That’s where he met Jihad Akbar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was pretty much getting straight A’s all through high school,” said Ferreira. “He was the most politically aware of any of us, and he was a leader.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Akbar attended UC Berkeley and grew into a dedicated activist, devoting his time to AIDS prevention and juvenile justice. But as the years went by, Ferreira said his friend began struggling with mental health issues and started to self-medicate. Akbar tried to get help but had trouble getting into a residential treatment program. Sometimes he’d get high and get paranoid about law enforcement, and Ferreira would spend hours just sitting with him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, in October 2002, Ferreira got a call from a friend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He told me that Jihad was dead and the police killed him,” Ferreira said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11837446\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11837446\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/09/Cotsirilos_Jinhos-Journey_pic-2-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"At Berkeley High School, Jinho Ferreira (wearing a number 25 jersey in the second row) said he focused on football.

Akbar allegedly ran into San Francisco’s Baghdad Cafe and stole several knives, then started dancing with them in the street outside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was obviously having some type of mental breakdown,” Ferreira said. “Two cops showed up. He supposedly lunged at one of them, and they shot him, and he died.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Akbar’s death made the news. Ferreira remembered one article describing his friend as a violent homeless man. He said it didn’t mention that Akbar had gone to UC Berkeley or been a straight-A student.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can’t leave it up to the guy that wrote that article about Jihad to tell the world about him,” he remembered thinking. “It’s literally my job to tell the world about him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At this point, Ferreira had been rapping for several years. In 2003, he got together with a singer and a guitarist at an Oakland recording studio and started a group called Flipsyde.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/e5QEAI_O2IA'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/e5QEAI_O2IA'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>“If you go back through all our songs, 90-95% of them deal with how this system victimizes people,” he said. “I’m carrying everything with me — all the people that have passed away with me — and I’m working as hard as I possibly can.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The group took off. Flipsyde traveled the world with Snoop Dogg, Akon and the Black Eyed Peas. In 2006, NBC made their song “Someday” the theme song for their Winter Olympics coverage. But they were always a bigger deal abroad than they were back home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I needed to do more than just write a song,” Ferreira said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Ferreira, the turning point came on New Year’s Day in 2009. In the early hours of the morning, Oscar Grant was shot by a white police officer on the platform of Oakland’s Fruitvale BART Station. His death was filmed by bystanders. Ferreira watched the video and took to the streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I go to the protest,” he said. “And I remember a journalist was interviewing artists. And he said, ‘What can we do as artists to make sure this never happens again?’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

[And] if a miracle happens and we get rid of this cop, who’s going to replace him?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ferreira said he struggled with that question for a while. Then, he said, “I thought, ‘I should start thinking about going into law enforcement.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Surviving the Battle\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>When Ferreira first told his family he was thinking of becoming a cop, they were terrified for him — and a few relatives were angry. Ferreira wondered whether he would be allowed to join law enforcement at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve been all over the world, rapping in front of Snoop’s weed plants,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in 2010, with a friend’s encouragement, Ferreira put down $5,000 and enrolled in the Alameda County Sheriff Academy. On his first day, he walked into a classroom with over 50 other recruits. Only five of them were Black men.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When you’re in there, it’s eye opening,” Ferreira said. “You see all these people being trained, and a lot of them are good dudes. It’s like being on a football team.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officers who trained the recruits were tough and protective, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Their whole thing is, ‘My students will survive the battle. They will live,’” said Ferreira. “You watch videos of cops being killed, and they pick those videos apart.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ferreira doesn’t remember watching or analyzing any videos where the cops were the ones that killed people. According to Alameda County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Sgt. Ray Kelly, the department now includes videos of officer-involved shootings in their trainings, but they didn’t when Ferreira was in the academy. Ferreira also said they didn’t really go into the history of the communities they’d be policing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He expected to get kicked out of the Academy. Instead, he gave a speech at their graduation. By 2011, Ferreira was on the force, policing some of the same neighborhoods he was born and raised in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
