As \u003cem>The California Report's\u003c/em> Central Valley Bureau Chief based in Fresno for nearly a dozen years, Sasha brought the lives and concerns of rural Californians to listeners around the state. Her reporting helped expose the hidden price immigrant women janitors and farmworkers may pay to keep their jobs: sexual assault at work. It inspired two new California laws to protect them from sexual harassment. She was a key member of the reporting team for the Frontline film \u003cem>Rape on the Night Shift, \u003c/em>which was nominated for two national Emmys. Sasha has also won a national Edward R. Murrow and a national PRNDI award for investigative reporting, as well as multiple prizes from the Society for Professional Journalists. Sasha is a proud alum of the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism and Brown University and a member of the South Asian Journalists Association.",

"content": "\u003cp>Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, dates back nearly 3,000 years ago, to the Aztecs in Central America. The Mexican holiday, which honors and remembers the dead, was originally celebrated in the summer, but after a few hundred years and some mixing of Spanish Catholicism, it now takes place in the fall. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, the holiday falls on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Bay Area, community Day of the Dead celebrations are becoming more popular including the annual Dia de los Muertos Festival in Oakland, which is put on by the Unity Council. Organizers say the outdoor festival regularly attracts more than 60,000 people to downtown Fruitvale. This year's festival -- held on Sunday, Oct. 29 -- was the 22nd and included traditional Aztec dancing, live music, more than 100 Latin American vendors and 30 altars designed by local artists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A large part of Dia de los Muertos includes building altars, or \u003cem>ofrendas\u003c/em>, to loved ones who have died. They’re filled with items that are thought to help guide spirits back home like attractive and fragrant yellow and orange marigolds. Copal and salvia incense is also often burned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And of course, favorite foods of the dead, like avocados and apples, are laid out along with brightly colored sugar skulls, calaveras figurines, candles and photos of the deceased fill out the rest of traditional altars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626710\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg\" alt='Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" ' width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626710\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Artist Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" It is filled with photos, calaveras and other items important to her loved ones. \u003ccite>(Tiffany Camhi/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626727\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626727\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Artist Gonzalo Hildago included a reference to DACA -- or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals -- on his altar.

The Mexican holiday, which honors and remembers the dead, was originally celebrated in the summer, but after a few hundred years and some mixing of Spanish Catholicism, it now takes place in the fall. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, the holiday falls on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Bay Area, community Day of the Dead celebrations are becoming more popular including the annual Dia de los Muertos Festival in Oakland, which is put on by the Unity Council. Organizers say the outdoor festival regularly attracts more than 60,000 people to downtown Fruitvale. This year's festival -- held on Sunday, Oct. 29 -- was the 22nd and included traditional Aztec dancing, live music, more than 100 Latin American vendors and 30 altars designed by local artists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A large part of Dia de los Muertos includes building altars, or \u003cem>ofrendas\u003c/em>, to loved ones who have died. They’re filled with items that are thought to help guide spirits back home like attractive and fragrant yellow and orange marigolds. Copal and salvia incense is also often burned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And of course, favorite foods of the dead, like avocados and apples, are laid out along with brightly colored sugar skulls, calaveras figurines, candles and photos of the deceased fill out the rest of traditional altars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626710\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg\" alt='Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" ' width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626710\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Artist Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" It is filled with photos, calaveras and other items important to her loved ones. \u003ccite>(Tiffany Camhi/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626727\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626727\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Artist Gonzalo Hildago included a reference to DACA -- or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals -- on his altar.

The creators of the comedy web series, “\u003ca href=\"http://www.thenorthpoleshow.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The North Pole\u003c/a>” think so. The show revolves around a homegrown trio of best friends who find themselves an endangered species in a rapidly gentrifying Oakland. The California Report’s Sasha Khokha talks to \u003ca href=\"http://joshhealey.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Josh Healey\u003c/a>, writer and producer of “The North Pole,” which premieres online Sept. 12.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This interview was edited for brevity and clarity.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>This is a hilariously funny but also deadly serious web series about the Bay Area’s housing crisis. What gave you the idea to compare people of color getting pushed out of Oakland to polar bears on shrinking glaciers?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Josh Healey: “The North Pole” is a real nickname for the neighborhood of North Oakland. For me, that metaphor, that nickname just felt so real. To be in a city like Oakland or cities across California where it feels like the local climate is changing. The native species, the native communities, are getting pushed out almost to the point of extinction. It felt like a way to talk about these issues in a different way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The show centers around three young people: Nina, a teacher at a charter school; Marcus, an aspiring designer; and their friend Benny. They all grew up together and they’re watching their neighborhood change all around them. Did the characters come first? Or did the story come first?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Healey: We knew that we wanted to center this story on people who had deep roots in the neighborhood. And really we wanted to do something that showed the multiracial nature of Oakland, of the Bay Area, black and brown folks especially. A lot of these stories are based on real stories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You’ve done a lot of work taking these issues of environmental justice and climate change and translating them into comedy. In “The North Pole” you’ve got this tech company called “Greengos,” which is basically designing fake trees. They would offset carbon emissions but they would also have surveillance cameras.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Healey: I love Al Gore, he’s cool. Bill Nye the Science Guy? That’s my dude. But the PowerPoint presentations and facts and figures are not enough to reach people. We wanted to do something that addresses the seriousness but also brought the humor, the joy. Comedy is the way to introduce complex issues. It’s a way to acknowledge that even when we’re thinking and talking about these serious things, we also have the little things that make us smile. If we don’t acknowledge those things, then we’re losing the humanity that we’re trying to fight for in the first place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/twITH7SxWOo\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You produced this show in conjunction with a\u003ca href=\"http://movementgeneration.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> nonprofit\u003c/a> that uses the arts to raise awareness around climate change. It was funded through a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1895822190/the-north-pole-a-comedic-web-series-for-the-people\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kickstarter\u003c/a> campaign, not through a big studio like Amazon or Netflix. What was your pitch to people who contributed?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Healey: If we’re going to change the politics or change the policies around these issues, we have to change the story. We have to rethink and re-imagine who are the heroes and who are the villains. You don’t have very many shows based in the Bay Area, centered on people of color, on young people who are trying to navigate these serious issues in a creative, fun way. It helps that we brought in a lot of our friends and homies in the artistic and activist community. Folks like comedian \u003ca href=\"http://www.wkamaubell.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">W. Kamau Bell\u003c/a>, rappers\u003ca href=\"http://realmistahfab.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Mistah F.A.B\u003c/a>. and Boots Riley and one of my great “sheroes,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.erickahuggins.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ericka Huggins\u003c/a>, one of the former leaders of Black Panther Party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>“The North Pole” is a lot about feeling threatened by newcomers who are driving up prices. You are somewhat of an outsider too, from D.C., not Oakland. What was it like to come in and bring that kind of outsider perspective? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Healey: I’m the first to acknowledge I’m not from here originally. A lot of times these conversations get stuck in this cycle of outsider versus insider, homegrown versus newcomer. I look at it differently. Gentrification is just a new name on something that’s been going on in America for a long time. I’m a white boy from Washington, D.C. And I think climate change is just a new name on exacerbated environmental destruction that’s been going on for hundreds of years. No matter where you’re from, you have to acknowledge the root causes of these issues. It’s deeper than the new coffee shop or the new gluten-free doughnut spot on your block. Those are those are the immediate symbols of something that’s gone much deeper. Who are the companies and the politicians and the policies that are really pushing this?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>After people watch this, what do you hope it empowers them to do?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Healey: We want people to stand up and to join with their neighbors, to join with their community, to join with their families and to be part of something. We want to activate audiences to become active participants in not just consuming information, but changing the story and becoming part of the story themselves. Individually watching a web series? That’s not going to do nothing. But we also know that some things can spark and become wildfires. And right now we need wildfires of hope. We need wildfires of joy. We need laughter and liberation. We’re trying to broaden the conversation, change the world and talk a little mess along the way.\u003c/p>\n\n",

A lot of these stories are based on real stories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You’ve done a lot of work taking these issues of environmental justice and climate change and translating them into comedy. In “The North Pole” you’ve got this tech company called “Greengos,” which is basically designing fake trees. They would offset carbon emissions but they would also have surveillance cameras.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Healey: I love Al Gore, he’s cool. Bill Nye the Science Guy? That’s my dude. But the PowerPoint presentations and facts and figures are not enough to reach people. We wanted to do something that addresses the seriousness but also brought the humor, the joy. Comedy is the way to introduce complex issues. It’s a way to acknowledge that even when we’re thinking and talking about these serious things, we also have the little things that make us smile. If we don’t acknowledge those things, then we’re losing the humanity that we’re trying to fight for in the first place.\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/twITH7SxWOo'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/twITH7SxWOo'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You produced this show in conjunction with a\u003ca href=\"http://movementgeneration.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> nonprofit\u003c/a> that uses the arts to raise awareness around climate change. It was funded through a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1895822190/the-north-pole-a-comedic-web-series-for-the-people\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kickstarter\u003c/a> campaign, not through a big studio like Amazon or Netflix. What was your pitch to people who contributed?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Healey: If we’re going to change the politics or change the policies around these issues, we have to change the story. We have to rethink and re-imagine who are the heroes and who are the villains. You don’t have very many shows based in the Bay Area, centered on people of color, on young people who are trying to navigate these serious issues in a creative, fun way. It helps that we brought in a lot of our friends and homies in the artistic and activist community. Folks like comedian \u003ca href=\"http://www.wkamaubell.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">W. Kamau Bell\u003c/a>, rappers\u003ca href=\"http://realmistahfab.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Mistah F.A.B\u003c/a>. and Boots Riley and one of my great “sheroes,” \u003ca href=\"https://www.erickahuggins.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ericka Huggins\u003c/a>, one of the former leaders of Black Panther Party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>“The North Pole” is a lot about feeling threatened by newcomers who are driving up prices. You are somewhat of an outsider too, from D.C., not Oakland. What was it like to come in and bring that kind of outsider perspective? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Healey: I’m the first to acknowledge I’m not from here originally. A lot of times these conversations get stuck in this cycle of outsider versus insider, homegrown versus newcomer. I look at it differently. Gentrification is just a new name on something that’s been going on in America for a long time. I’m a white boy from Washington, D.C. And I think climate change is just a new name on exacerbated environmental destruction that’s been going on for hundreds of years. No matter where you’re from, you have to acknowledge the root causes of these issues. It’s deeper than the new coffee shop or the new gluten-free doughnut spot on your block. Those are those are the immediate symbols of something that’s gone much deeper. Who are the companies and the politicians and the policies that are really pushing this?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>After people watch this, what do you hope it empowers them to do?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Healey: We want people to stand up and to join with their neighbors, to join with their community, to join with their families and to be part of something. We want to activate audiences to become active participants in not just consuming information, but changing the story and becoming part of the story themselves. Individually watching a web series? That’s not going to do nothing. But we also know that some things can spark and become wildfires. And right now we need wildfires of hope. We need wildfires of joy. We need laughter and liberation. We’re trying to broaden the conversation, change the world and talk a little mess along the way.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
