"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. 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.",

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).

Roberts describes seven factors that contribute to racism in the U.S. They include the concept of hierarchy “which emboldens people to think, feel and behave in racist ways” and passivism, whereby individuals or institutions deny the existence of racism which, in turn, encourages others to do the same. Roberts and his co-author also explore “anti-racism” as a tool to combat racism proactively — instead of reactively — and the role psychology can play in promoting anti-racism to reduce racial inequality in our society. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Steven O.

On Monday, San Francisco retailers will be allowed to reopen for indoor shopping for the first time in three months. The city is also providing free, temporary permits to allow businesses to use public spaces, like sidewalks and parking spaces, for outdoor dining and shopping. Meanwhile, the tech sector in the Bay Area has remained relatively strong during the pandemic, with some companies such as San Francisco-based Instacart posting record growth for its on-demand grocery shopping service. Another fallout from the pandemic may be the acceleration of income inequality between low-wage service workers and tech workers, many of whom can work remotely. \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\"> Jay Cheng, public policy director, San Francisco Chamber of Commerce\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Jeremy C.

Only \u003ca href=\"https://www.sccgov.org/sites/da/newsroom/newsreleases/Documents/B-Turner%20VIS.pdf\">her 12-page victim’s statement\u003c/a>, which she read in court before Turner was sentenced, spoke to her experience on that January 2015 night when Turner was discovered on top of her unconscious body behind a dumpster at Stanford University.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To sit under oath and inform all of us, that yes I wanted it, yes I permitted it and that you are the true victim attacked by guys for reasons unknown to you is sick, is demented, is selfish, is stupid,” Miller told Turner in court in 2016. “It shows that you were willing to go to any length to discredit me, invalidate me, and explain why it was OK to hurt me. You tried unyieldingly to save yourself, your reputation, at my expense.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly after she read that statement in court, describing in vivid, disturbing detail the violence and trauma she’d experienced, the judge overseeing the trial sentenced her attacker to six months in jail — much less than the six years in prison that prosecutors wanted for Turner, who had been convicted of three counts of felony sexual assault. Aaron Persky, then a California Superior Court judge, justified his light sentence at the time by saying “a prison sentence would have a severe impact on [Turner].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Turner would ultimately serve \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/09/02/492390163/brock-turner-freed-from-jail-after-serving-half-of-6-month-sentence\">just three months\u003c/a> of that sentence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I spoke with conviction. I felt that it was working. I felt that it was everything I could have done. So I felt relief and pride and now thought the hardest parts were behind me, but they weren’t,” Miller recalls of that hearing. “When the sentence was announced, the immediate reaction I had was humiliation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says she had struggled to include her family and friends in the legal process up to that point. Since the moment she began learning what had happened to her that night — “every detail I found out on the news,” she says — Miller remembers keeping many of her family and friends out of courtroom proceedings, hoping to “protect the people that I loved.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It had even taken her some time to tell her parents about what happened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was almost like I cracked in half,” she says of that conversation. “I just sort of bent over and was unable to speak. And at that point, my mom stood up and she just held me and we both cried. Because I don’t think you can assign words to that initial experience. I think you need to feel it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To most in her life, though, she didn’t talk about what was going on in court, or even say where it was she was going when there was a hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was extremely difficult to conceal that this was going on in my life,” she explains. “At the same time, I felt like it was necessary to protect myself, and I was also terrified of the investigators. I felt like I couldn’t disclose or be open about what happened.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the time Turner’s sentencing rolled around, Miller had relented and let some family and friends join her in the courtroom — but “as soon as the sentence was read,” she says, “I remember thinking, ‘Why did you allow them in?’ Now people are just going to get hurt again. You humiliated yourself in front of everyone you love. And this is why you should do things alone.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She was not just humiliated; she was also confused how a conviction backed by witnesses and material evidence could have ended like this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Had I not released my statement, I would have gone home believing that my words were worth nothing. I would never have thought, ‘Wow, that was such a courageous thing that I did,’ or ‘Wow, I’m an eloquent writer.’ I truly believed that I had failed,” she tells NPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Referring to Persky, she adds: “I don’t understand how, if he is in such a high state of authority, he can overlook everything that I presented.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Chanel Miller\"]‘It almost felt like a bittersweet birthday in that I was able to finally exist in the world without having to hide anything.’[/pullquote]Persky would ultimately feel the consequences of his lenient sentence.

There might be egos and personalities involved that go back generations. But these communities, Palo Alto and Menlo Park [in particular], are deeply concerned about growth, and their citizens are electing representatives who want to curtail all of the growth, and Stanford is a growing institution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The County of Santa Clara Planning and Development Department has been holding a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sccgov.org/sites/opa/newsroom/Pages/stanforduniversitylandusepermithearings.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series of planning commission hearings\u003c/a> to review Stanford University’s General Use Permit application.

It was revised Thursday to remove Olsen and add three new plaintiffs, students at Tulane, Rutgers and an unnamed community college in Orange County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The colleges have cast themselves as victims and have moved to distance themselves from the coaches, firing or suspending them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the institutions named in the lawsuit, the University of Texas at Austin, issued a statement saying that it is “outraged” over the scheme and that any wrongdoing at the school does not reflect its admissions practices and was carried out by “one UT employee.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"small\" align=”right” citation=\"Class-action complaint filed by students\"]‘Each of the universities took the students’ admission application fees while failing to take adequate steps to ensure that their admissions process was fair and free of fraud, bribery, cheating and dishonesty.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>University of Southern California officials said earlier this week that prosecutors believe that the alleged perpetrators “went to great lengths to conceal their actions from the university.” Yale, likewise, said it was “the victim of a crime.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other schools named in the lawsuit were the University of California at Los Angeles, Wake Forest University and the University of San Diego.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The students in the lawsuit could have a difficult time tying the schools to the fraud in the absence of further evidence, said Joy Blanchard, a professor at Louisiana State University who focuses on higher education law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They won’t be able to prove that the universities were behind some grand scheme,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Adam Zimmerman, a law professor at Loyola Law School, said he’s skeptical the case will go far in court: “It’s going to be hard for them to substantiate their claims that they wouldn’t have applied at all and thus should be entitled to their admission fees back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Legal experts said the plaintiffs at highly selective Stanford would have an especially hard time showing they suffered any harm, since they still got into an elite institution.
