"content": "\u003cp>At Sunday’s Oscars, on a night when almost everything went as planned and as usual, the one true surprise came in the biggest moment of all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the first time ever, a film in a foreign language won best picture when Bong Joon-ho’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/10/10/768638368/parasite-hooks-you-with-its-emotional-power-and-extraordinary-cunning\">\u003cem>Parasite\u003c/em>,\u003c/a> a comedy-drama-thriller about class and secrets, took the big prize. \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/12/10/785090210/parasite-director-bong-joon-ho-wanted-to-reflect-the-truth-of-current-times\">Bong\u003c/a> also won the awards for best director and best original screenplay. He delivered three warm and generous speeches, including one when he won for his directing and thanked fellow nominees Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino for inspiring him and boosting his career, respectively. (He acknowledged Sam Mendes and Todd Phillips, too.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, while he gave most of his speeches in Korean with interpreter Sharon Choi, when he won the first one, he stopped and noted in English: “This is very first Oscar to South Korea.” The affection in the room for the film was evident every time it was mentioned, as well as in its strong haul of awards (though it absurdly landed not a single nomination for its uniformly excellent cast).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The evening began three and a half hours earlier with a combination of the old and the new: the kind of themed singing-dancing number that used to be the typical Oscars opening, but in the absence of a traditional host, it was performed by the thoroughly modern Janelle Monáe. A version of her own song “Come Alive” was accompanied by dancers dressed in costumes saluting not just nominated films like \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/10/03/765082771/joker-is-wild-ly-dull\">\u003cem>Joker\u003c/em>,\u003c/a> but also conspicuously snubbed ones — several of them, but not all, from black filmmakers — including \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/03/21/705470655/when-you-meet-the-enemy-and-it-is-us\">\u003cem>Us\u003c/em>,\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/11/27/782574993/a-first-date-turns-into-a-stylish-nightmare-in-queen-slim\">\u003cem>Queen and Slim\u003c/em>,\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/10/06/765150318/a-breezy-look-at-the-making-of-a-blaxploitation-classic-dolemite-is-my-name\">\u003cem>Dolemite Is My Name\u003c/em>\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/07/03/738422258/midsommar-shines-a-solstice-nightmare-unfolds-in-broad-daylight\">\u003cem>Midsommar\u003c/em>.\u003c/a> The monologue that followed, however, was much more creaky and awkward, despite the best efforts of Chris Rock and Steve Martin (the latter of whom regrettably blew the name of best actress nominee Cynthia Erivo).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The awards in general, and the ones this season in general, have been heavily criticized for how white the nominees are, the failure to nominate any women directors in a year when several made highly regarded films, and plenty of other shortfalls in inclusivity. The Academy’s discomfort with that criticism seemed evident: There may not have been a lot of performers of color among the nominees, but there were a lot among the presenters and speakers and performers. Several presenters — as well as Monáe in her opening number — made mention of the limitations at issue, which is the kind of thing that happens when people are placed in a situation they don’t want to ignore but also aren’t there to challenge \u003cem>too\u003c/em> much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One new inclusion was a land acknowledgment — a custom that’s commonly observed in other places, including Canada, at cultural events (I’ve personally seen them at the Toronto International Film Festival). In this case, it was writer-director \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/10/18/771219868/director-taika-waititi-on-jojo-rabbit\">Taika Waititi,\u003c/a> nominated for\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/10/17/770262214/jojo-rabbit-your-reich-is-calling\"> \u003cem>Jojo Rabbit\u003c/em>,\u003c/a> who read an acknowledgment of the indigenous people who have lived on the land where the event — in this case, the Academy Awards — takes place.

Introducer Josh Gad had some fun pointing out that Idina Menzel’s name is “pronounced exactly as it’s spelled” (take that, John Travolta) before she performed “Into the Unknown” from\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/11/20/779284364/frozen-ii-lets-it-go-darker\"> \u003cem>Frozen 2\u003c/em>\u003c/a>.

It wasn’t an obvious move to throw in that performance, given that it’s not celebrating any kind of round-numbered anniversary; it won at the 2003 ceremony, though Eminem didn’t perform it then. But it made people happy and got the crowd going like nothing else did all evening except \u003cem>Parasite \u003c/em>winning awards, and there’s something to be said for that. Not long after, there was a recap rap from Utkarsh Ambudkar, an actor who appeared this year in \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/08/22/752755460/a-fun-but-familiar-story-of-making-yourself-over-in-brittany-runs-a-marathon\">\u003cem>Brittany Runs a Marathon\u003c/em>,\u003c/a> reminding everyone what had happened so far. That’s a lot of rap for an Oscars ceremony.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year’s ceremony also went without a host, and it wound up being dominated by the actual wins and losses. That made big nights for \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/11/21/669234619/green-book-offers-by-the-book-uplift\">\u003cem>Green Book \u003c/em>\u003c/a>and \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/11/01/660969118/no-bed-of-roses-no-pleasure-cruise-bohemian-rhapsody\">\u003cem>Bohemian Rhapsody\u003c/em>, \u003c/a>neither of which seemed to excite the crowd, very disappointing. But this year, the fact that there’s good feeling around so many different films — and enormous respect and love for both \u003cem>Parasite \u003c/em>and Bong Joon-ho — means that this ceremony fared much better. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2020 NPR.

He delivered three warm and generous speeches, including one when he won for his directing and thanked fellow nominees Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino for inspiring him and boosting his career, respectively. (He acknowledged Sam Mendes and Todd Phillips, too.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, while he gave most of his speeches in Korean with interpreter Sharon Choi, when he won the first one, he stopped and noted in English: “This is very first Oscar to South Korea.” The affection in the room for the film was evident every time it was mentioned, as well as in its strong haul of awards (though it absurdly landed not a single nomination for its uniformly excellent cast).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The evening began three and a half hours earlier with a combination of the old and the new: the kind of themed singing-dancing number that used to be the typical Oscars opening, but in the absence of a traditional host, it was performed by the thoroughly modern Janelle Monáe. A version of her own song “Come Alive” was accompanied by dancers dressed in costumes saluting not just nominated films like \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/10/03/765082771/joker-is-wild-ly-dull\">\u003cem>Joker\u003c/em>,\u003c/a> but also conspicuously snubbed ones — several of them, but not all, from black filmmakers — including \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/03/21/705470655/when-you-meet-the-enemy-and-it-is-us\">\u003cem>Us\u003c/em>,\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/11/27/782574993/a-first-date-turns-into-a-stylish-nightmare-in-queen-slim\">\u003cem>Queen and Slim\u003c/em>,\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/10/06/765150318/a-breezy-look-at-the-making-of-a-blaxploitation-classic-dolemite-is-my-name\">\u003cem>Dolemite Is My Name\u003c/em>\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/07/03/738422258/midsommar-shines-a-solstice-nightmare-unfolds-in-broad-daylight\">\u003cem>Midsommar\u003c/em>.\u003c/a> The monologue that followed, however, was much more creaky and awkward, despite the best efforts of Chris Rock and Steve Martin (the latter of whom regrettably blew the name of best actress nominee Cynthia Erivo).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The awards in general, and the ones this season in general, have been heavily criticized for how white the nominees are, the failure to nominate any women directors in a year when several made highly regarded films, and plenty of other shortfalls in inclusivity. The Academy’s discomfort with that criticism seemed evident: There may not have been a lot of performers of color among the nominees, but there were a lot among the presenters and speakers and performers. Several presenters — as well as Monáe in her opening number — made mention of the limitations at issue, which is the kind of thing that happens when people are placed in a situation they don’t want to ignore but also aren’t there to challenge \u003cem>too\u003c/em> much.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Hildur Guðnadóttir won best original score for her work on \u003cem>Joker\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The musical moment you probably would not have expected — because, really, who could? — was that actor Anthony Ramos introduced Lin-Manuel Miranda; Lin-Manuel Miranda introduced a montage saluting the music used in movies over many decades; and that montage led to Eminem performing the Oscar-winning “Lose Yourself” from \u003cem>8 Mile\u003c/em>, to which the audience responded rapturously. It wasn’t an obvious move to throw in that performance, given that it’s not celebrating any kind of round-numbered anniversary; it won at the 2003 ceremony, though Eminem didn’t perform it then. But it made people happy and got the crowd going like nothing else did all evening except \u003cem>Parasite \u003c/em>winning awards, and there’s something to be said for that. Not long after, there was a recap rap from Utkarsh Ambudkar, an actor who appeared this year in \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/08/22/752755460/a-fun-but-familiar-story-of-making-yourself-over-in-brittany-runs-a-marathon\">\u003cem>Brittany Runs a Marathon\u003c/em>,\u003c/a> reminding everyone what had happened so far. That’s a lot of rap for an Oscars ceremony.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

State lawmakers are now seeking ways to have more control over what happens next. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, KQED Politics and Government reporter\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">California state Sen.

Seated behind him will be House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi, who united House Democrats in denying the president billions in funds to build a border wall in exchange for ending the 35-day government shutdown. Pelosi has also been appointing Bay Area and California lawmakers in recent weeks to key assignments on committees dealing with homeland security and government oversight. Back in California, a legal fight is brewing between the state and the city of Huntington Beach, as state officials pursue a new strategy to address the housing crisis. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scott Shafer, KQED Senior Editor of California Politics and Government\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lanhee Chen, Hoover Institution fellow\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cbr>\n\u003c/span>\u003cb>Reel Hollywood Love for Oakland\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Three movies released last year with ties to Oakland have won praise from audiences and critics alike. Oakland native Ryan Coogler directed “Black Panther,” which has grossed more than $1 billion worldwide and is now up for a Best Picture Oscar. “Blindspotting” explores the intersection of class and race as its protagonist navigates the criminal justice system while witnessing police brutality. “Sorry to Bother You,” a satire chronicling the struggles of a black telemarketer in Oakland, is the directorial debut of hip-hop musician and rapper Boots Riley. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And they want to stop such misconduct in the future. And not just in Hollywood, but across a wide swath of industries, professions and institutions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To that end CAA banded together with a core group of fellow female executives from two powerful Hollywood public relations firms, Sunshine Sachs and \u003ca href=\"http://42west.net/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">42 West\u003c/a>, to help launch Time’s Up in January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All three firms have also done businesses with Harvey Weinstein or his company at one time or another.

I also think they know what good PR is, and this (Time’s Up) is good PR.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CAA’s involvement with Time’s Up fits with the 43-year old company’s years-long tradition of philanthropy and championing a range of social causes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It established a philanthropic arm, the CAA Foundation led by the agency’s Chief Innovation Officer Michelle Kydd Lee, and the foundation helped kick start a multi-million dollar Time’s Up legal defense fund to benefit less privileged women outside the entertainment industry who’ve been sexually assaulted and harassed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Masters says CAA and the two PR firms involved in the effort may also have other motivations; the bottom-line for one. The sex abuse cases roiling Hollywood are bad for businesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think CAA felt quite vulnerable because of that and they wanted to somewhat wrap themselves around the #MeToo\u003cem> \u003c/em>movement,\" Masters said. \"And I think the other (talent) agencies look at them kind of with a little bit of an eye roll and say; ‘really CAA?

And if they are taking those actions I don’t care if they believe (in the campaign) or not.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williams came to Hollywood about 15 years ago and she too has been mistreated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I haven’t been raped. But like, the everyday misogyny, the everyday racism. (Producers and agents) finding out that I am married and then never hearing from them again,” Williams said. “But no one ever thought about reporting because you knew you’d never be believed by anybody. So that has already changed.

The sex abuse cases roiling Hollywood are bad for businesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think CAA felt quite vulnerable because of that and they wanted to somewhat wrap themselves around the #MeToo\u003cem> \u003c/em>movement,\" Masters said. \"And I think the other (talent) agencies look at them kind of with a little bit of an eye roll and say; ‘really CAA?
