I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

I've dealt with this a little bit at the federal level, and once you make that decision to allow folks to physically be there you're crossing the proverbial Rubicon, and it becomes very difficult to take another position.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once that decision was made, all of these mayors had effectively created a process that was going to move forward, and at that point you can't really do anything to reverse it because things are taking place. For contrast, you look at the city of Sacramento, which made the decision to give people parameters and to limit the camp right from the very beginning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So once the campers are there, your options are limited?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think at some level a lot of these mayors tried to make the decision either/or. But from what I have experienced in other situations, you can put in place a transparent and open process in which you almost win by just being married to it. You involve and engage people in the process and become a part of the solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There have been these representations that you need to move folks because you need to clean up areas from a public health perspective. Assuming that's true, it doesn't mean you need to move people completely off the property. There's ways you can reach a compromise that gets you to a situation that shows you're in control, and you use a process as a bulwark, as your safety place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You look at these things historically, ultimately the energy either evolves and manifests itself in a different place in a different way or it just dissipates of its own accord. \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Most big-city mayors, with some exceptions, are Democrats, and they tend to be sympathetic to the general message of the protesters. But nationally the Democrats seem to be reluctant to embrace the movement because there's a fear it could go awry...\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I've had this discussion with a half-dozen if not more big-city mayors in the last couple of weeks.

I've dealt with this a little bit at the federal level, and once you make that decision to allow folks to physically be there you're crossing the proverbial Rubicon, and it becomes very difficult to take another position.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once that decision was made, all of these mayors had effectively created a process that was going to move forward, and at that point you can't really do anything to reverse it because things are taking place. For contrast, you look at the city of Sacramento, which made the decision to give people parameters and to limit the camp right from the very beginning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So once the campers are there, your options are limited?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think at some level a lot of these mayors tried to make the decision either/or. But from what I have experienced in other situations, you can put in place a transparent and open process in which you almost win by just being married to it. You involve and engage people in the process and become a part of the solution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There have been these representations that you need to move folks because you need to clean up areas from a public health perspective. Assuming that's true, it doesn't mean you need to move people completely off the property. There's ways you can reach a compromise that gets you to a situation that shows you're in control, and you use a process as a bulwark, as your safety place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You look at these things historically, ultimately the energy either evolves and manifests itself in a different place in a different way or it just dissipates of its own accord. \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Most big-city mayors, with some exceptions, are Democrats, and they tend to be sympathetic to the general message of the protesters.

The driver, who was not identified, sat in his silver Mercedes-Benz sedan after the 7:30 p.m. incident while hundreds of people screamed at him through his closed windows. BART police officers who were guarding nearby transit stations responded, questioned the driver and several witnesses, then let the driver leave the scene at 11th Street and Broadway in his car.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q27cW8_YlBs\">video\u003c/a> of the incident and the aftermath: \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center\">\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"480\" height=\"274\" src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/Q27cW8_YlBs\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KGO today put up an \u003ca href=\"http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/video?id=8421028\">extended interview\u003c/a> with Lance Lavendure, one of the protesters struck by the car. Lavendure says he still doesn’t know who the driver is and that he and the other pedestrian injured “want to know why he’s not in jail.” Lavendure is using a cane to walk as a result of the collision, and KGO is reporting his companion’s ankle was “crushed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART, for its part, \u003ca href=\"http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/local/east_bay&id=8417185\">defended the release of the driver\u003c/a> by officers, and on Friday released this \u003ca href=\"http://www.bart.gov/news/articles/2011/news20111104a.aspx\">statement and timeline of events\u003c/a>.

The BART Lieutenant at the EOC (Emegency Operations Center) relayed this information to an Oakland Police Lieutenant at the EOC, who then reported it to a higher-ranking member (Deputy Chief) of the Oakland Police Department. Oakland Police requested BART Police gather information from the driver, his vehicle, the injured pedestrians, including the extent of injuries and the destination hospital; and to turn over the information to Oakland Police for investigation. Oakland Police further advised BART Police to release the driver of the involved vehicle.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\n",

The driver, who was not identified, sat in his silver Mercedes-Benz sedan after the 7:30 p.m. incident while hundreds of people screamed at him through his closed windows. BART police officers who were guarding nearby transit stations responded, questioned the driver and several witnesses, then let the driver leave the scene at 11th Street and Broadway in his car.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q27cW8_YlBs\">video\u003c/a> of the incident and the aftermath: \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center\">\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"480\" height=\"274\" src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/Q27cW8_YlBs\" frameborder=\"0\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>KGO today put up an \u003ca href=\"http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/video?id=8421028\">extended interview\u003c/a> with Lance Lavendure, one of the protesters struck by the car. Lavendure says he still doesn’t know who the driver is and that he and the other pedestrian injured “want to know why he’s not in jail.” Lavendure is using a cane to walk as a result of the collision, and KGO is reporting his companion’s ankle was “crushed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
