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.",

San Francisco, San Jose and other jurisdictions allowed their orders to expire earlier Thursday.

At the same time, several major demonstrations in Oakland and San Francisco have proceeded without incident. Those rallies and marches have also been remarkable for police taking a less confrontational stance toward the gatherings. Police were out in force in downtown Oakland on Wednesday night during a rally that drew several thousand people to 14th Street and Broadway, for instance, but chose to keep their distance for the evening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Thursday's coverage includes reporting from KQED's Kate Wolffe and Kevin Stark. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Below:\u003c/strong> Significant events in \u003cstrong>Wednesday's\u003c/strong> Bay Area protests of the May 25 police killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police, along with related developments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>12:30 a.m. Thursday: Oakland dances, then heads home\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAs noted below, Oakland's anti-curfew, anti-police violence, pro-change rally ended with people literally dancing in the streets. Reporters noted that Oakland police, backed up by personnel from San Francisco and other jurisdictions, kept their distance, staging in force about six blocks from the party. People departed 14th Street and Broadway before midnight, with no arrests connected to the event reported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here's the scene, via the East Bay Times' David DeBolt:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/daviddebolt/status/1268430294551388161\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>11:20 p.m.: Arrests on San Francisco's Mission Street\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nABC7 helicopter video streaming at 11:20 p.m. showed a cordon of roughly 50 San Francisco police officers who had detained 15 to 20 people in front of the Mission Ink tattoo parlor, on Mission Street near 20th Street. One of those detained was Mission Local reporter \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/badjujusf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Julian Mark\u003c/a>. He tweeted that those detained just before 11 p.m. had participated in tonight's nonviolent protests and that police stopped them for violating the city's emergency curfew.

And so have those who had held a vigil all evening outside the San Francisco Police Department's Mission Station. Sala-Haquekyah Chandler, whose son was killed in a 2015 shooting in the Western Addition neighborhood, was one of those at the station, and at 10:20 p.m. she told the remaining 30 or so youthful protesters there to head home. \"Big mom energy,\" is how Neilson described Chandler's directive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11822853\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11822853\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/RS43536_Image-from-iOS-5-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/RS43536_Image-from-iOS-5-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/RS43536_Image-from-iOS-5-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/RS43536_Image-from-iOS-5-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/RS43536_Image-from-iOS-5-qut.jpg 1446w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A memorial at Oscar Grant Plaza for black lives lost to police violence. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>10:15 p.m.: Oakland rally is over, but many are still on street\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAt 10:15 p.m., Cat Brooks, a co-founder of the Anti Police-Terror Project, which sponsored tonight's \"F___ Your Curfew\" event, wrapped up the formal proceedings. \"Walk with a buddy. If you're staying out here, take care of yourselves and take care of each other,\" Brooks said. \"I'm not going to tell you what to do or what not to do — I don't know how many windows there are left to break, though.

About 9 p.m., an hour past the city's curfew, a squad of 30 police officers marched into the city's Courthouse Square to deal with a quartet of protesters — four, literally — who remained there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/gmeline/status/1268405660795801600\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>9:30 p.m.: San Francisco police issue curfew warning\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nOfficers are warning the Civic Center-bound protesters they're subject to arrest for violating the 8 p.m. curfew. About 200 people still appear to be walking toward City Hall.

The crowd departed the Hall, on Bryant Street, after staging an 8-minute, 46-second vigil for George Floyd. That's the length of time that former Minneapolis police Officer Derek Chauvin, who now faces a charge of second-degree murder, knelt on Floyd's neck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/susieneilson/status/1268393089871142912\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11822852\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11822852\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/001_KQED_Oakland_GeorgeFloydProtest_06032020-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/001_KQED_Oakland_GeorgeFloydProtest_06032020-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/001_KQED_Oakland_GeorgeFloydProtest_06032020-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/001_KQED_Oakland_GeorgeFloydProtest_06032020-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/06/001_KQED_Oakland_GeorgeFloydProtest_06032020.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Justin (left) and Shiko write phone numbers on their arm before a protest against police violence in Oakland on June 3, 2020. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>8:30 p.m.: What happened last night in San Francisco, Oakland\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nFor context: On \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11822469/george-floyd-police-violence-protests-curfew-bay-area\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tuesday night\u003c/a>, small numbers of demonstrators remained on the street in both San Francisco and Oakland after the curfew hour.

The main gathering in San Francisco is at the Hall of Justice where hundreds of demonstrators have jammed Bryant Street, face to face with a line of San Francisco police officers and sheriff's deputies deployed at the building's entrance. In Oakland, it appears that thousands have responded to a call to challenge the 8 p.m. curfew. Police have showed no inclination, so far, to try to get the crowds to leave.

The county order is due to expire Friday morning; the city's is in place indefinitely.

But the orders themselves have become the object of new controversy, and \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11822543/civil-liberties-advocates-raise-concerns-about-curfews-imposed-across-bay-area\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">San Francisco Mayor London Breed announced\u003c/a> that her city's curfew would be allowed to end at 5 a.m. Thursday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/DarwinBondGraha/status/1268298165934940160\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5 p.m.: ACLU demands end to curfews\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThe American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California sent letters to Alameda, Contra Costa, San Mateo and Napa counties, as well as the cities of Palo Alto and San Francisco demanding the end to the curfews. The letter said, in part: \"These sweeping measures, allowing police to arrest anyone outside from the early evening hours until 5 a.m., violate the First Amendment right to free speech and assembly. These vague, open-ended curfews are not only the wrong way of preventing violent offshoots from peaceful protests. They further inflame the situation by giving police wide discretion to arrest and harass individuals exercising their First Amendment rights — as well as the media documenting this historic moment.

People experiencing homelessness are also exempt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separately, Contra Costa County's sheriff issued an advisory for residents to remain indoors from 8 p.m. Monday through 5 a.m. Tuesday. The notice was not an order, but the sheriff's office said that could change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayor Schaaf said Oakland's ban on overnight public movements is necessary to stem the violence and property destruction the city has seen since the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11821834/bay-area-protests-over-death-of-george-floyd\">first major local demonstrations last Friday\u003c/a> against the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have endured so much damage and pain over these last days,\" Schaaf said. \"But we have come to the conclusion by assessing conditions and the law enforcement intelligence that we have.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I want to be clear that this is in no way to quell what we are passionate about, and that is free speech and protest,\" the mayor said. \"... It is our hope that this will not curtail the lifting of voices for change in Oakland and America.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland's interim police chief, Susan Manheimer, acknowledged that the curfew orders themselves are seen by many as an oppressive extension of police authority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are aware of the historic uses of curfew and martial law and that it is oftentimes associated with the power on display are demonstrating against because of past and current transgressions,\" Manheimer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/ACSOSheriffs/status/1267585058224795648\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said police would not move immediately to arrest people on the streets at 8 p.m. — but that consequences would follow for those who don't heed the order to stay indoors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Obviously, the curfew is a tool to clear the streets of folks who would be lawbreakers,\" Manheimer said. \"So we will be giving warnings as we always do with dispersal and provide safe and clear accesses for people to leave. For those who choose not to, they will be arrested.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Schaaf, the chief argued such measures are necessary in light of the unrest that has descended on the city each night since Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 11 p.m. Sunday and 3 a.m. Monday, Manheimer said, \"We saw more than 50 arrests — some for shootings, some for looting, and our officers have taken an incredible amount of rocks, bottles and threats.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Local leaders across the Bay Area have blamed out-of-town opportunists for much of the damage seen across the region. Manheimer said police have determined that some of those who have smashed their way into stores in Alameda County traveled there from the San Joaquin Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our experience is, and what we found from the countywide arrests, is that many were coming, surprisingly, from the Stockton, Merced, southern area and coming in in very organized fashion — 15, 20, 30 cars at a time, hitting different shopping malls, different areas,\" Manheimer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Leandro appeared to be one of the hardest-hit communities in Sunday's incidents, with dozens of people recorded on video entering stores in the Bayfair Center mall and exiting with merchandise. The city's Marina Square outlet mall also suffered multiple break-ins and vandalism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The orders were issued as a crowd of hundreds gathered at Oakland Technical High School and then began a march down Broadway toward City Hall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/e_baldi/status/1267614656660508672\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

It is our hope that this will not curtail the lifting of voices for change in Oakland and America.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland's interim police chief, Susan Manheimer, acknowledged that the curfew orders themselves are seen by many as an oppressive extension of police authority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are aware of the historic uses of curfew and martial law and that it is oftentimes associated with the power on display are demonstrating against because of past and current transgressions,\" Manheimer said.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Earlier, police had warned the crowd to stop throwing and launching fireworks. Oakland police said in \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/oaklandpoliceca/status/1266591312708427778\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">a tweet\u003c/a> that several officers were injured by projectiles. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/FitzTheReporter/status/1266578913796317184\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People scattered after police deployed gas and grenades. One large contingent retreated east on 7th Street and gathered between Franklin and Webster streets in Chinatown. By 10:15 p.m., another sizable crowd gathered at 14th and Broadway and were in a standoff with a line of police. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/FitzTheReporter/status/1266599933311770625\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Extensive property damage — rampant graffiti, smashed windows and some ransacked businesses — occurred along Broadway and nearby streets downtown. Late in the evening, a crowd started a fire on Broadway and fed it with debris and construction barricades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Protesters began gathering at 14th Street and Broadway before 7 p.m. and the beginning of the evening followed what a familiar pattern. Protesters marched from Frank Ogawa/Oscar Grant Plaza outside City Hall north on Broadway, then doubled back to the Police Department Headquarters. They chanted, \"Say his name!

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>Maia, aka mxmtoon, is a 19-year-old singer-songwriter from Oakland. Her angsty lyrics have become an anthem for the socially distant. She’s in a better position than a lot of artists struggling to figure out how to produce and share their music now that everyone is sheltering in place. She’s built her career on social media from her parents' house and has already amassed millions of followers. Her new EP dropped on April 22. Her uncle, video and radio journalist Clarence Ting, has witnessed her transformation into a social media star. He brings us this reflection.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Timing, as the old saying goes, is everything. For mxmtoon, who also goes by her first name Maia, that turned out to be especially true with the release of her latest hit single. It’s called “Quiet Motions” and it dropped in March, just as COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“ 'Quiet Motions' was a song I wrote back in January about how nice it was to be by myself, because as an introvert, I definitely stand by that statement,” Maia told me. “But the irony was that we released it two weeks before social distancing really kind of struck in the United States.” She said her whole team was laughing the day that it came out because it was so \"unfortunately relevant,\" and then she said, \"It kinda turned into a quarantine anthem.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NY__uAZtZZ8&feature=youtu.be\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maia is my niece and I’ve known her since she was born. She’s my sister's first kid, but little could I have known when I first filmed Maia, then 7 years old — for a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1i-6z861-4Y&feature=youtu.be&t=315\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">home cooking video\u003c/a> I made and uploaded to YouTube about a dozen years ago — that she would grow into the musical artist with millions of listeners on Spotify and over 1.6 million followers on \u003ca href=\"https://www.tiktok.com/@mxmtoon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">TikTok\u003c/a> alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just a few years ago, Maia was, by her own reckoning, an average high schooler, writing songs and making random videos in the obscurity of her own bedroom at her parents’ home in Oakland. She posted these regularly to YouTube and SoundCloud. By that point, she was already exploring the creative possibilities of the internet. It was a secret life of which her parents had no idea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Social media felt like this rebellious edge that I had for myself where it wasn't like partying or drinking or doing drugs or something, but instead I was just creating content for myself and for other people,” Maia said. “So I just did it all the time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"mxmtoon\"]'No matter how difficult a time may be, the sun still rises and it sets in the evening and you'll still experience those motions every single day.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A self-described “emo” teen, she had been writing songs since middle school when her seventh grade music teacher first introduced her to the ukulele and the rudiments of songwriting. “I started writing music when I was 13 because of an assignment that my music teacher gave me and I kind of enjoyed it,” Maia said. “It was mostly just like throwing together words from rhyme zone that fit with each other and that was what I made.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Maia, writing songs was a way of giving voice to the anxiety that she’d felt since she was a young child. “I think songs always were helpful for me to write down what I was feeling because it's already a structured format,” she said. “There's a verse, there's a chorus, the chorus is the main thought that has been stuck in my head for ages. And so songwriting felt very useful to declutter the way that everything was floating around in my head.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11814536\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11814536\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/RS42923_DSC05535-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/RS42923_DSC05535-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/RS42923_DSC05535-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/RS42923_DSC05535-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2020/04/RS42923_DSC05535-qut.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mxmtoon's new EP was released on April 22, 2020. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Clarence Ting)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The first song she published was a jokey track she wrote as a junior in high school titled “\u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xr-RULh-N58&feature=youtu.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">1-800-Dateme\u003c/a>.” The song garnered 200 likes the morning after she posted — not much by today’s metrics, but for 16-year-old Maia, it was a big deal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was a much more confessional song she wrote the summer before her senior year called “Feelings Are Fatal” that really resonated with listeners. “It was just like a little bit more emotionally vulnerable and talking about my anxiety amongst the relationships that I might have or my depression or relationship to my life,\" Maia said. She said she made it in about 20 minutes. The song now has \u003ca href=\"https://open.spotify.com/track/6GGdkwYk4NXuiIcQD16AZg?si=ux6tEqh0TnG-fD-iY4O3hQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">more than 40 million plays on Spotify\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maia said her initial courage came from thinking no one was going to see the songs or videos. \"But I think eventually it turned into the mindset of, 'OK, if what I'm saying and what I'm singing about helps one person feel like their experience is being voiced, that's enough reason for me to post it in the first place,' \" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K6rGDNrivv8\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout her senior year in high school, Maia continued to write and post songs, as well as various thoughts and drawings on Twitter, Instagram and YouTube. She’d talk about an \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0NpCx7LscA&feature=youtu.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">architect\u003c/a> she admired, or do a dance celebrating her \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYP3Bin3HiA&feature=youtu.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">love of yogurt\u003c/a>. But it was her self-deprecating and confessional songs — and their growing number of listeners — that began to attract attention from the media. \u003ca href=\"https://hypebeast.com/2017/10/best-bedroom-pop-music-clairo-zack-villere-rex-orange-county\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">HYPEBEAST\u003c/a>, an online magazine that chronicles the latest in fashion, art, music and sneakers, featured Maia as a rising star in the “bedroom pop” department. At this point, Maia broke the news to her parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"arts_13876893\" label=\"How to Help Creatives and Freelancers\" hero=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2020/03/MutualAid2_COVER-1020x573.jpg\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Eventually it got to a point where I was like, 'OK, this is way too big and I can't hide it anymore from them.' And so when that article from HYPEBEAST came out that morning, I stepped into the kitchen. I was like, ‘Mom, dad, I have to tell you something,’ ” Maia said. “ 'I post music online and this really big editorial company found it and wanted to write about it.' \" She told them she wanted them to know about it, before they found out on Twitter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They got really quiet,\" Maia said. They asked her to show them the article, so she pulled it up. \"They read it and I was like, 'I got to go ... I'm just going to go hide in my room.' You can look at things, but I don't want to be in front of you while you're looking,\" she said. They did a deep dive into mxmtoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though at first reluctant, Maia’s parents agreed to let her take a gap year from college to devote herself full time to music. They converted the guest bedroom into a recording studio, and six months after graduating from high school she self-released her debut EP.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last summer, Maia left her parents' house, booked a studio in Brooklyn and brought on another young singer-songwriter named \u003ca href=\"http://www.cave.town/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cavetown\u003c/a> to help record and produce her first full-length album, “The Masquerade.” The first single, “Prom Dress,” is a song based on a \"freakout\" moment Maia experienced trying on her prom dress after scarfing down a cheeseburger from In-N-Out Burger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AeUeLzBO0go&feature=youtu.be\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The song ended up being a popular track for TikTok videos and inspired its own memes on TikTok. Since downloading the app about a year and a half ago, Maia has amassed a following of over 1.6 million with a steady stream of goofy dances and signature TikTok-style videos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other songs on the album, like “Seasonal Depression” and “Unspoken Words,” with their themes of loneliness and breakdowns in communication, are a lot of the reason why Maia’s songs often come up on Spotify mixes labeled #sadvibe. “I'm good at talking about ... the unsure aspects of human existence. You know, I'm 19. I'm just really existential and emo,\" Maia said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7yXav31eVA&feature=youtu.be\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Maia’s career has grown, her music has taken on more optimistic themes. “One song I wrote in one of the sessions I was in was called ‘Fever Dream,' ” Maia said. “I was just talking about my experience going into the music industry and how it can be really terrifying, but at the same time wanting to chase whatever that could be at the end of the day and going for it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maia’s latest single “Lessons,” about letting go of doubt and moving forward in life, for her EP “Dawn” has a central theme of renewal and rebirth. The release is another feat of impressive timing during this unsettling period of COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No matter how difficult a time may be, the sun still rises and it sets in the evening and you'll still experience those motions every single day,” Maia said of the intention behind the song.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She hopes it will serve as a positive reminder that despite uncertainty, there are still constants in life.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Her angsty lyrics have become an anthem for the socially distant. She’s in a better position than a lot of artists struggling to figure out how to produce and share their music now that everyone is sheltering in place. She’s built her career on social media from her parents' house and has already amassed millions of followers. Her new EP dropped on April 22. Her uncle, video and radio journalist Clarence Ting, has witnessed her transformation into a social media star. He brings us this reflection.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Timing, as the old saying goes, is everything. For mxmtoon, who also goes by her first name Maia, that turned out to be especially true with the release of her latest hit single. It’s called “Quiet Motions” and it dropped in March, just as COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“ 'Quiet Motions' was a song I wrote back in January about how nice it was to be by myself, because as an introvert, I definitely stand by that statement,” Maia told me. “But the irony was that we released it two weeks before social distancing really kind of struck in the United States.” She said her whole team was laughing the day that it came out because it was so \"unfortunately relevant,\" and then she said, \"It kinda turned into a quarantine anthem.\"\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/NY__uAZtZZ8'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/NY__uAZtZZ8'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Maia is my niece and I’ve known her since she was born.

She posted these regularly to YouTube and SoundCloud. By that point, she was already exploring the creative possibilities of the internet. It was a secret life of which her parents had no idea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Social media felt like this rebellious edge that I had for myself where it wasn't like partying or drinking or doing drugs or something, but instead I was just creating content for myself and for other people,” Maia said. “So I just did it all the time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

She said she made it in about 20 minutes.

And so when that article from HYPEBEAST came out that morning, I stepped into the kitchen. I was like, ‘Mom, dad, I have to tell you something,’ ” Maia said. “ 'I post music online and this really big editorial company found it and wanted to write about it.' \" She told them she wanted them to know about it, before they found out on Twitter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They got really quiet,\" Maia said. They asked her to show them the article, so she pulled it up. \"They read it and I was like, 'I got to go ... I'm just going to go hide in my room.' You can look at things, but I don't want to be in front of you while you're looking,\" she said. They did a deep dive into mxmtoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though at first reluctant, Maia’s parents agreed to let her take a gap year from college to devote herself full time to music. They converted the guest bedroom into a recording studio, and six months after graduating from high school she self-released her debut EP.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last summer, Maia left her parents' house, booked a studio in Brooklyn and brought on another young singer-songwriter named \u003ca href=\"http://www.cave.town/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cavetown\u003c/a> to help record and produce her first full-length album, “The Masquerade.” The first single, “Prom Dress,” is a song based on a \"freakout\" moment Maia experienced trying on her prom dress after scarfing down a cheeseburger from In-N-Out Burger.\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/AeUeLzBO0go'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/AeUeLzBO0go'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>The song ended up being a popular track for TikTok videos and inspired its own memes on TikTok. Since downloading the app about a year and a half ago, Maia has amassed a following of over 1.6 million with a steady stream of goofy dances and signature TikTok-style videos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other songs on the album, like “Seasonal Depression” and “Unspoken Words,” with their themes of loneliness and breakdowns in communication, are a lot of the reason why Maia’s songs often come up on Spotify mixes labeled #sadvibe. “I'm good at talking about ... the unsure aspects of human existence. You know, I'm 19. I'm just really existential and emo,\" Maia said.\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/M7yXav31eVA'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/M7yXav31eVA'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>As Maia’s career has grown, her music has taken on more optimistic themes. “One song I wrote in one of the sessions I was in was called ‘Fever Dream,' ” Maia said. “I was just talking about my experience going into the music industry and how it can be really terrifying, but at the same time wanting to chase whatever that could be at the end of the day and going for it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Maia’s latest single “Lessons,” about letting go of doubt and moving forward in life, for her EP “Dawn” has a central theme of renewal and rebirth. The release is another feat of impressive timing during this unsettling period of COVID-19.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No matter how difficult a time may be, the sun still rises and it sets in the evening and you'll still experience those motions every single day,” Maia said of the intention behind the song.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Across California, some 1.2 million students lack a reliable internet connection, according to Linda Darling-Hammond, president of the State Board of Education. A digital connection for students has become increasingly essential during the coronavirus pandemic, with almost all schools operating exclusively online.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In light of that, State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond is co-chairing a fact-finding session Monday to tackle the vast digital divide among students across the state that now, more than ever, threatens to widen the achievement gap. Thurmond and state Sen. Connie Leyva, D-Chino, who chairs the Senate Education Committee, are asking the heads of the state's major internet providers to explain what they are doing to help increase digital access.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a tweet, the California Department of Education named the companies it intends to hear from.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/CADeptEd/status/1251274100011458566?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Monday that the California Public Utilities Commission would make $30 million available to school districts to help students get internet access and devices they need to stay connected with their schools. Later this week, the CPUC is scheduled to hold a virtual workshop on expanding broadband access in unserved areas of the state. Lack of high-quality broadband access is also sparking interest in a new bill — \u003ca href=\"https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2020/04/california-legislator-introduces-fiber-broadband-all-bill\">SB 1130\u003c/a> — introduced by state Sen.

She said some families who don't speak English fluently or don't have credit cards are having difficulty signing up for the free internet services that some providers are temporarily offering.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I feel like a failure,\" Baez said. \"It's incredibly frustrating to not be able to give our families a clear-cut response with, 'Here's how you can do this.' And I think it's incredibly frustrating to see that when our students are trying not to fail.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As reported by \u003ca href=\"https://edsource.org/2020/in-their-own-words-kern-countys-work-in-distance-learning/629040\">EdSource\u003c/a>, school districts in some parts of California are attempting to jump-start their own solutions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anthony Davis, the chief technology officer for the Kern County Office of the Superintendent of Schools, told EdSource that his county has installed Wi-Fi hot spots at over 180 community sites, including schools, so students or their families can drive there to download online materials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Oakland, Baez longs for a similar initiative that can offer uniform access for all students in the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have families that span different schools. So perhaps at one school they're getting a lot of support because that school has some kind of program where they are giving out devices or had access to devices like hot spots,\" said Baez, noting that Fremont High doesn't have anywhere near the resources necessary to meet that digital demand. \"And so it just confuses families.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She described how the family of one of her students from East Oakland recently tried to set up a free account with an internet provider and were placed on hold for hours before eventually being disconnected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"But they are going to try again,\" Baez said. \"You know why? Because it's about their kid getting internet so they can do their work. But I don't think that's fair. I think about the many other kids all over this country that are not poor. You know, they already have those resources at home. They don't have to do all that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Federal Communications Commission recently asked internet providers to \u003ca href=\"https://www.fcc.gov/keep-americans-connected\">continue providing access\u003c/a> to customers through the duration of the coronavirus pandemic, regardless of ability to pay, and more than 700 have pledged to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there have been plenty of hitches. In Oakland, for instance, Comcast \u003ca href=\"https://www.internetessentials.com/get-help#mostasked&all_AmIeligibleforIE\">initially denied free access\u003c/a> to customers with over a year of outstanding debt, but has since waived that restriction through mid-May.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baez has been trying to direct her families to \u003ca href=\"https://www.techexchange.org\">Tech Exchange\u003c/a>, a digital equity organization in East Oakland, to get help with free services. But she wishes it was as easy as being able to give her students a code that they could simply punch into their computers and access free internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She bristles at the assumption that low-income students and students of color will not go above and beyond to succeed academically during the current shut down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's actually the complete opposite,\" she said. \"Because our students have lived in such circumstances that are really difficult and incredibly challenging, their families will go out of their way with whatever means that they have, trying their hardest to give their kids what they need.
