She was the editor for Truth Be Told, an advice show for and by people of color. \r\n\r\nHer stories about race, space, and belonging were part of KQED's So Well Spoken project, which won RNDTA's Kaleidoscope award, honoring outstanding achievements in the coverage of diversity.\r\n\r\nPrior to joining KQED in 2015, Sandhya covered the 2012 presidential election from the swing state of Iowa for Iowa Public Radio. At KPBS in San Diego, she broke the story of a sexual harassment scandal that led to the mayor's resignation.\r\n\r\nShe got her start in radio working on documentaries about Oakland that investigated the high drop-out rate in public schools and mistrust between the police and the community.\r\n\r\nSandhya lives in Oakland and believes all stories are stories about power.",

That position energized the right, which had been making similar arguments in their social media sphere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet, while the fringe right looked to find -- and document -- new conflicts, officials in Alameda and San Francisco counties took steps to lessen the enthusiasm for these rallies, and reduce the chance for violence, before the gatherings even began.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee took an immediate hard stand against the rally at Crissy Field, urging the National Park Service to cancel the permit. Meanwhile, congressional members, including House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, also spoke out forcefully against the rally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to two San Francisco officials with knowledge of the negotiations, the political pressure and public outcry yielded major rewards for public safety, including a list of banned items such as firearms, weapons and helmets.

At his bond hearing, an Alameda County judge ordered Chapman -- who often leads others into violent clashes -- to stay away from the Berkeley protest should he post a $135,000 bail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Second, Berkeley city officials \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2017/08/18/berkeley-grants-city-manager-power-make-temporary-protest-rules/\">passed an ordinance\u003c/a> granting the city manager broad powers to ban weapons during rallies that don't have permits. The move -- criticized by both the far left and right -- is expected to allow police to act more aggressively when protests turn to riots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think our goal is to contain the event around the block so it doesn’t spill out to a broader area,” Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin told KQED. “The rules we will be putting in place around objects will make a big difference, and we will have a very visible police presence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Third, Berkeley Assistant City Manager Jovan Grogan denied a permit to organizer Amber Cummings. The denial was issued in part because Cummings wanted to use amplified sound powered by a generator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Applicants wishing to use sound outdoors for an event must obtain a permit no less than thirty days from the date of the event,” Grogan wrote in the denial letter. “Failure to do so is grounds for an automatic denial.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cummings applied for the permit 10 days before the rally was scheduled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The haphazard organizing has been a hallmark of many of these events, which are often thrown together at sensitive times as a tool to incite anger and violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if this weekend passes without major acts of violence, it should be examined if officials like Grogan helped keep the peace by cutting the power.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In Limiting Weapons, Officials Cut Fringe-Right Media Production Options\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The threat of violence at these rallies – \u003ca href=\"http://www.opb.org/news/article/jeremy-joseph-christian-portland-stabbing-suspect-charged-with-murder/\">and in the days afterward\u003c/a> -- is real, and city officials have urged counterprotesters to stay away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And under the guise of public safety, officials have quietly taken away the tools that make creating on-the-scene media easy for the fringe right. Media production \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/08/17/why-trumps-words-spoken-and-unspoken-matter-to-white-supremacists/\">is an essential component\u003c/a> for their recruitment drives since it gives white supremacists and others the ability to portray themselves as a besieged, righteous movement fighting against liberals and the mainstream media. These videos \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/08/16/do-police-allow-safe-spaces-for-white-nationalist-violence/\">are a key motivator\u003c/a> in attending these chaotic rallies, and often fuel conspiracy theories used to deflect from criticism of violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, organizers of both Bay Area rallies said they chose the locations because of the powerful backdrops they provide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s beautiful, obviously,” said Patriot Prayer organizer Gibson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While officials couldn’t stop these political actors from using their sets of choice, they have seriously curtailed their ability to record and livestream the action. In San Francisco, for example, selfie sticks, camera helmets, drones, tripods and large bags that often hold over-the-shoulder cameras would not be allowed in the demonstration area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco officials negotiated with the National Park Service to ban these items. Mayor Lee said it was solely related to public safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We insisted on the highest levels of public safety,” Lee said. “And these things were used as weapons [at other rallies].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet, a real-world side consequence is that the fringe right won’t be able to livestream their event and have both hands free to fight. San Francisco Board of Supervisors President London Breed said if the banned items mean it’s harder for the fringe right to broadcast themselves, then so be it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These images continue to tear our country apart,” Breed said. “They want all eyes on them, which is why they’re doing what they’re doing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11613966\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11613966 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">People take photos and video of a \"Make America Great Again\" hat on that was burned during a demonstration against the scheduled appearance of Milo Yiannopoulos at UC Berkeley on Feb. 1, 2017.

At his bond hearing, an Alameda County judge ordered Chapman -- who often leads others into violent clashes -- to stay away from the Berkeley protest should he post a $135,000 bail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Second, Berkeley city officials \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2017/08/18/berkeley-grants-city-manager-power-make-temporary-protest-rules/\">passed an ordinance\u003c/a> granting the city manager broad powers to ban weapons during rallies that don't have permits. The move -- criticized by both the far left and right -- is expected to allow police to act more aggressively when protests turn to riots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think our goal is to contain the event around the block so it doesn’t spill out to a broader area,” Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin told KQED. “The rules we will be putting in place around objects will make a big difference, and we will have a very visible police presence.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Third, Berkeley Assistant City Manager Jovan Grogan denied a permit to organizer Amber Cummings. The denial was issued in part because Cummings wanted to use amplified sound powered by a generator.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Applicants wishing to use sound outdoors for an event must obtain a permit no less than thirty days from the date of the event,” Grogan wrote in the denial letter. “Failure to do so is grounds for an automatic denial.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cummings applied for the permit 10 days before the rally was scheduled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The haphazard organizing has been a hallmark of many of these events, which are often thrown together at sensitive times as a tool to incite anger and violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And if this weekend passes without major acts of violence, it should be examined if officials like Grogan helped keep the peace by cutting the power.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In Limiting Weapons, Officials Cut Fringe-Right Media Production Options\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The threat of violence at these rallies – \u003ca href=\"http://www.opb.org/news/article/jeremy-joseph-christian-portland-stabbing-suspect-charged-with-murder/\">and in the days afterward\u003c/a> -- is real, and city officials have urged counterprotesters to stay away.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And under the guise of public safety, officials have quietly taken away the tools that make creating on-the-scene media easy for the fringe right. Media production \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/08/17/why-trumps-words-spoken-and-unspoken-matter-to-white-supremacists/\">is an essential component\u003c/a> for their recruitment drives since it gives white supremacists and others the ability to portray themselves as a besieged, righteous movement fighting against liberals and the mainstream media. These videos \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/08/16/do-police-allow-safe-spaces-for-white-nationalist-violence/\">are a key motivator\u003c/a> in attending these chaotic rallies, and often fuel conspiracy theories used to deflect from criticism of violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Indeed, organizers of both Bay Area rallies said they chose the locations because of the powerful backdrops they provide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s beautiful, obviously,” said Patriot Prayer organizer Gibson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While officials couldn’t stop these political actors from using their sets of choice, they have seriously curtailed their ability to record and livestream the action. In San Francisco, for example, selfie sticks, camera helmets, drones, tripods and large bags that often hold over-the-shoulder cameras would not be allowed in the demonstration area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco officials negotiated with the National Park Service to ban these items. Mayor Lee said it was solely related to public safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We insisted on the highest levels of public safety,” Lee said. “And these things were used as weapons [at other rallies].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet, a real-world side consequence is that the fringe right won’t be able to livestream their event and have both hands free to fight. San Francisco Board of Supervisors President London Breed said if the banned items mean it’s harder for the fringe right to broadcast themselves, then so be it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These images continue to tear our country apart,” Breed said. “They want all eyes on them, which is why they’re doing what they’re doing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11613966\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11613966 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/08/RS23997_20170201_MiloYiannopoulos_protest_Cal_Credit_BertJohnson-12-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">People take photos and video of a \"Make America Great Again\" hat on that was burned during a demonstration against the scheduled appearance of Milo Yiannopoulos at UC Berkeley on Feb. 1, 2017.

The clinic still operates out of a second-floor office overlooking Haight Street. You enter by way of a steep wooden staircase, which leads to a warren of small rooms. One exam room still has a wall covered by a faded psychedelic mural, featuring a collage of famous rock stars, naked bodies and peace signs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decor used to be even more colorful, according to lab manager Pam Olton. She has worked at the Free Clinic for more than 40 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Pink, aqua, Day-Glo orange … all of these exam rooms were painted in those Day-Glo colors,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olton explained the colors helped the hippies feel welcome, easing their drug-induced paranoia or reassuring them that the clinic was a safe space.

District. It’s a long alleyway of sharp shadows and slants of sunlight. There was a tent at the far end, and a guy on a stepladder, spray-painting a mural on a large blank wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s heartbreaking,” Eric said. “I used to get high in this alley, too.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He nodded to a spot on the curb. “Right here.” He pointed to another: “Right here. So for someone who’s come from the pit, I actually really care. I feel for these individuals.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there was no time to dwell on that past, because Eric had spotted some new faces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hey, guys,” he boomed, smiling and striding over. “You need any socks?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A man and a woman were cuddling together sleepily with just thin sleeping bags against the hard sidewalk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearby was a shopping cart stuffed with belongings and a cooler. A pit bull puppy flopped across their legs. They sat up and happily accepted everything Eric offered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hey, so you guys, you guys need any medical attention at all?” Eric asked. “Do you got Medi-Cal?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sean and Kat are from Ukiah, in Mendocino County, and had been in San Francisco for only a month. They needed advice, and Eric had plenty: They talked about places to get day-old pastries, charities that offered free breakfast or lunch, or even showers. Eric pointed out the clinic. They discussed getting the puppy fixed at the SPCA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You guys use?” Eric asked. “I mean I’m an old junkie, all right?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re working on quitting,” Kat said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Oh what, heroin?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No,” said Sean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Meth?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yeah.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Slamming it?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Smoking?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yeah, we smoke.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kat told Eric she used to slam, meaning she used to inject it. But after meeting Sean, she was able to stop that. He helped her “get off the needle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eric jumped on this: “Really? So you guys are together. And you’re supporting one another, all right?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Giving up the needle is a small step, but a positive one. It’s a little less harmful. Eric wanted them to know he gets it: They’re \u003ci>trying\u003c/i>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So you guys, come and talk to me, OK?” he told them. “Seriously, if you want help at all. I don’t care if you don’t want recovery or not, but just to know that there’s someone out there. I used to get high right here in this alley, dude, back in the day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The kind of care Eric is offering — nonjudgmental, patient, compassionate — goes straight back to the earliest days of the Haight Ashbury Free Clinic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s an unremarkable approach these days, common in social services. But 50 years ago, before the Summer of Love, it was radical and new.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Survival in Consolidation\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Today, the Haight Ashbury Free Clinics are part of an umbrella organization called \u003ca href=\"https://www.healthright360.org/\">HealthRIGHT 360\u003c/a>. It’s a large network of social service agencies, tackling a variety of problems besides health care: domestic abuse, rehabilitation for ex-inmates, gay, lesbian and transgender health, and addiction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consolidating with other agencies helped the Haight Ashbury Free Clinic survive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seven years ago, in 2010, it was struggling financially. Some staffers had been caught embezzling, and the clinic couldn’t afford the transition to electronic medical records, a new requirement of the Affordable Care Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2011, the Free Clinic joined forces with \u003ca href=\"https://www.healthright360.org/agency/walden-house\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Walden House\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a nearby addiction recovery center. Other nonprofits soon joined as well, and HealthRIGHT 360 became the umbrella brand, allowing the smaller agencies to pool resources for administration, electronic records and fundraising.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. David Smith, who started it all, applauds the decision to consolidate with other nonprofits. But he does miss the intimacy of those early days, when volunteers from the neighborhood worked at the clinic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When money got tight, there were benefit concerts featuring local bands like Big Brother and the Holding Company, during the time Janis Joplin was the lead singer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Smith lived in the Haight, and so did Janis Joplin. He remembered the night he saved her life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There was somebody at our clinic that was close with her — her name was Sunshine,” he recalled. “It was near the Grateful Dead house, and we got a call that she’d overdosed. So we zipped up there with the Narcan and reversed her overdose.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She was a wonderful woman, a great singer, very involved in the community,” Smith said. “But she had a very serious addiction problem, bounced back and forth between heroin and alcohol.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the Summer of Love, free clinics opened in Seattle, L.A. and Berkeley. By the end of the ’60s, the U.S. had dozens of free clinics, a third of them in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All were founded on that simple principle Dr. Smith first articulated 50 years ago: Health care is a right, not a privilege. No matter how you look, dress or act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
