The California Legislature has introduced a constitutional amendment to enshrine the right to abortion in the state constitution.

  • “I’m passionate about elevating multiple perspectives and creating spaces where you can do that,” Dr. Tabia Lee told the Post. “And that’s literally why I was harassed and bullied out of my position.”<br />
<br />
Since becoming the faculty director for the Office of Equity, Social Justice, and Education at De Anza College in August of 2021, Lee said, she endured “non-stop hostility” on campus.<br />
<br />
Now, she claims, she’s out of a job after colleagues retaliated against her for questioning certain diversity, equity, and inclusion policies at the Cupertino, California, school.<br />

  • Stop Anti-Asian Hate Campaign<br />
<br />
Theme: Women Empowerment:<br />
<br />
For Women International Day in March, the tagline we chose is “Own Your Light” and refers to affirming your pride in your culture and countering the narratives surrounding shame around people’s negative internalized views of their Asian American identity. Light also refers to burning bright with pride, confidence and fierceness… as bright as the Philippine sun … lighting the way for others to feel strong enough to come out of the dark … leading by example to make our community feel seen and strong and sharing your strength.

  • I am excited to share the launch of the new initiative to combat anti-Asian Hate in my hometown of Sacramento. For our first issue, we would like to highlight Elderly and Family experiences with Asian American and Pacific Islander Hate and Violence.<br />
<br />
<br />
This matter hits home for me because last year I was worried for my Mom's safety. I can't imagine our elders or anyone being attacked verbally or physically. Last summer I volunteered to patrol the Little Saigon area (Stockton blvd), a popular area for shopping in Sacramento.<br />
<br />
<br />
Below is the Latest Data from the Stop AAPI Hate Initiative:<br />
<br />
<br />
-446 Filipinos in California reported anti-Asian incidents<br />
<br />
<br />
-Filipina women disproportionately accounted for 55% (247) of the reports in California, with the 26-35 age range having the highest number of reports (127 reports or 28%).<br />
<br />
<br />
-Filipina seniors/elders (61 and older), there have been 31 incidents reported (7%), however, this low number could be due to a lack of knowledge on how to report incidents.<br />
<br />
<br />
-35% (154) of incidents were reported to have occurred in a public space (i.e. street, park, sidewalk, parking lot)<br />
<br />
<br />
If you have experienced or witnessed an incident of anti-Asian hate, bigotry, bias, and discrimination report it at STOPHATE.CALCIVILRIGHTS.CA.GOV or<br />

  • A team of activists released banners off the rotunda balcony in the California State Capitol Building urging the Legislature to “Make Big Oil Pay” and put “People Over Profits” by passing a windfall profits cap on fossil fuel companies in the state. <br />
<br />
While oil and gas companies are raking in record profits – $63 billion dollars in just Q3 of this year – California’s consumers are paying the highest prices at the pump in history. Gas prices have climbed as high as $9 a gallon in some parts of California, far higher than in other states.<br />

  • Renew Breakup Bootcamp, a twice-yearly retreat for people who’ve gone through heartbreaks or struggled to find romantic partners. The recent retreat took place over four days at the Land, a 162-acre Northern California retreat center. 21 people, including four men, to participate. The group that gathered in Northern California ranged in age from 22 to 61 and covered a variety of backgrounds and geographies — some participants traveling from as far as Alberta, Canada; New Jersey, and Texas. Some had been through recent breakups like I had, while others were navigating custody battles with their ex-spouses.<br />
<br />
The retreat, which typically costs $3,495 to $3,995, included three nights of lodging in a cabin, three meals per day cooked by a private chef and a busy schedule of programming and activities. In addition to being drug and alcohol free, the boot camp was digital free.<br />
<br />
“Some people would think this was a waste of money, but it’s because we value material things,” Molina said. “We don’t value ourselves. We don’t value our mental health.”<br />
<br />
Prior to arrival, participants were told only that they’d be engaging in workshops with therapists, coaches, movement and yoga instructors and a dominatrix. However, there were two ground rules: We weren’t allowed to bash our exes and we weren’t allowed to give unsolicited advice.<br />
<br />
Along the four-day journey, Founder Amy Chan and a team of experts discussed the science behind what happens in the body when you go through a separation, how dopamine pushes you to want to, say, check your ex’s Instagram account multiple times a day after a breakup, look through old photos or find excuses to see or contact them. <br />
<br />
Chan also shared her own breakup story, which inspired the boot camp: Her ex-boyfriend cheated on her with one of her co-workers, and it took Chan more than two years to heal from their split.<br />

  • Renew Breakup Bootcamp, a twice-yearly retreat for people who’ve gone through heartbreaks or struggled to find romantic partners. The recent retreat took place over four days at the Land, a 162-acre Northern California retreat center. 21 people, including four men, to participate. The group that gathered in Northern California ranged in age from 22 to 61 and covered a variety of backgrounds and geographies — some participants traveling from as far as Alberta, Canada; New Jersey, and Texas. Some had been through recent breakups like I had, while others were navigating custody battles with their ex-spouses.<br />
<br />
The retreat, which typically costs $3,495 to $3,995, included three nights of lodging in a cabin, three meals per day cooked by a private chef and a busy schedule of programming and activities. In addition to being drug and alcohol free, the boot camp was digital free.<br />
<br />
“Some people would think this was a waste of money, but it’s because we value material things,” Molina said. “We don’t value ourselves. We don’t value our mental health.”<br />
<br />
Prior to arrival, participants were told only that they’d be engaging in workshops with therapists, coaches, movement and yoga instructors and a dominatrix. However, there were two ground rules: We weren’t allowed to bash our exes and we weren’t allowed to give unsolicited advice.<br />
<br />
Along the four-day journey, Founder Amy Chan and a team of experts discussed the science behind what happens in the body when you go through a separation, how dopamine pushes you to want to, say, check your ex’s Instagram account multiple times a day after a breakup, look through old photos or find excuses to see or contact them. <br />
<br />
Chan also shared her own breakup story, which inspired the boot camp: Her ex-boyfriend cheated on her with one of her co-workers, and it took Chan more than two years to heal from their split.<br />

  • Inez Salinas, a Concow resident and Camp Fire survivor, recently broke ground to build a tiny home with the help of Tiny Pine Foundation, an organization that builds homes for wildfire survivors. Inez is among the thousands of rural residents displaced by the wildfire and many are still in limbo. “Each fire, the people from the previous fire just get forgotten,” she said. “Please just don’t forget about us.”<br />
<br />
The 2018 Camp Fire destroyed 18,000 structures, killed 86 people, and left 42,000 people homeless and many jobless. Some survivors of California's deadliest wildfire continue to live in trailers, tents and makeshift homes nearly four years later as they wait for payments from a trust set up to compensate them. The PG&E Fire Victim Trust has paid less than half, or $5.2 billion, of the more than $13 billion owed to survivors in the two years since it was established, according to the latest data. Most are low-income homesteaders who were already living off the grid before the Camp Fire tore through the region and razed the entire town of Paradise. These communities are not uncommon in California and throughout the West, but they largely remain out of the public eye and seldom receive media attention. <br />
<br />
Inez received her first payment of about $60,000 from the trust earlier this year, she said, and used some of it to pay legal fees, buy materials for new property where a "tiny home" is being built and spent the remainder trying to make ends meet as a single mother. Salinas is owed about $200,000 total, according to the determination letter she received from the trust, but neither she nor her lawyer know when it will be paid in full. “I will fight and scrape by and bleed if I have to just to keep [my daughter, River] safe,” she said. “Everything I’m doing is to make sure she’s stable. I can’t risk her being taken away from me.”<br />

By keeping perfectly good food out of the dump, we could help solve Hunger and Climate Change.<br />
<br />
For this assignment, I followed Ms. Vang in Fresno. We visited 3 grocery stores and she was able to save over 800 pounds of food in one morning!<br />
All of the perfectly good food that included fruits, vegetables, steak, eggs, fish, and bread was going to be thrown away. I just couldn’t believe it.<br />
<br />
At one of the groceries we visited, the staff was pushing over a dozen boxes of rotten avocados to the trash bin. My heart sank, we came too late. <br />
<br />
Wasted food = wasted energy, money, man-hour, resources, transportation, water, etc. <br />
<br />
Because Ms. Vang doesn't have a facility to store the food she rescued, the food was quickly transferred to Centro La Familia, a neighborhood center, and they sorted and distributed the food to families that need them that same day. <br />
<br />
While doing research for this assignment, I came across these staggering statistics.  <br />
<br />
* 40% of food produced in the United States is wasted <br />
<br />
* 1 out of 5 children in the US doesn’t have enough to eat <br />
<br />
* $1 trillion worth of food is wasted annually<br />
<br />
* The average American family spends $1500 a year on wasted food <br />
<br />
* 1 billion pounds of food is wasted every year. <br />
<br />
* In the US over 90% of food scraps end up in Landfill<br />
<br />
* Food waste, when it rots in a landfill, produces methane gas, which quickly heats the planet.<br />
 <br />
* Methane is 23x more powerful than CO2 (formed when food scraps decompose without oxygen)<br />
<br />
* 60% of consumers throw away food prematurely because they don’t understand what the dates are telling them<br />
<br />

By keeping perfectly good food out of the dump, we could help solve Hunger and Climate Change.<br />
<br />
For this assignment, I followed Ms. Vang in Fresno. We visited 3 grocery stores and she was able to save over 800 pounds of food in one morning!<br />
All of the perfectly good food that included fruits, vegetables, steak, eggs, fish, and bread was going to be thrown away. I just couldn’t believe it.<br />
<br />
At one of the groceries we visited, the staff was pushing over a dozen boxes of rotten avocados to the trash bin. My heart sank, we came too late. <br />
<br />
Wasted food = wasted energy, money, man-hour, resources, transportation, water, etc. <br />
<br />
Because Ms. Vang doesn't have a facility to store the food she rescued, the food was quickly transferred to Centro La Familia, a neighborhood center, and they sorted and distributed the food to families that need them that same day. <br />
<br />
While doing research for this assignment, I came across these staggering statistics.  <br />
<br />
* 40% of food produced in the United States is wasted <br />
<br />
* 1 out of 5 children in the US doesn’t have enough to eat <br />
<br />
* $1 trillion worth of food is wasted annually<br />
<br />
* The average American family spends $1500 a year on wasted food <br />
<br />
* 1 billion pounds of food is wasted every year. <br />
<br />
* In the US over 90% of food scraps end up in Landfill<br />
<br />
* Food waste, when it rots in a landfill, produces methane gas, which quickly heats the planet.<br />
 <br />
* Methane is 23x more powerful than CO2 (formed when food scraps decompose without oxygen)<br />
<br />
* 60% of consumers throw away food prematurely because they don’t understand what the dates are telling them<br />
<br />
* Infant formula is the only food to have an expiration date regulated by the federal government <br />
<br />
* A Good Samaritan Act, anyone who wants to donate food can do so free of getting sued<br />

  • The biggest wildfire in California this year, the 76,000-acre Mosquito Fire, is 50 miles west of Lake Tahoe in the Sierra Nevada foothills.<br />
<br />
Smoke from the Mosquito Fire has prompted cancellations of sporting events, classes at the University of Nevada, Reno campus, hotel bookings and outdoor tours, derailing the start of an autumn season on which many businesses count.<br />
<br />
Tourism-driven businesses can be affected quickly when visitors curtail their activities or cancel reservations entirely. In July 2018, California businesses lost $20 million to cancellations amid a major outbreak of fires, the nonprofit group Visit California reported. Oregon saw a $51 million drop in tourism revenue from similar fires in 2017, according to nonprofit group Travel Oregon.<br />
<br />
In nearby Tahoe City, Calif., the 212-room Granlibakken Tahoe hotel has lost almost all of its bookings since Sept. 6. Its current occupancy level is 15%, said owner Ron Parson. The hotel and a sister resort lost $1 million in revenue during the fires last year, he said.<br />
<br />
The Mosquito smoke also forced cancellation of a youth soccer tournament called Come Up for Air. Expected to draw 4,000 players on the second and third weekends of this month in South Lake Tahoe, Calif., the cancellation cost $2.5 million in lost revenues from hotels, food and beverages, estimated Brandon Garinger, tournament executive director. He said it was the second such cancellation in a row for the seven-year-old tournament.<br />
<br />
“As soon as the smoke comes in, we lose a lot of customers,” said Kim Childers, a clerk at the Adrift Tahoe sports shop in Kings Beach, Calif. Rentals of kayaks and other watercraft are down by about half from where they are when the skies are more clear, she said. (Jim Carlton)<br />

In nearby Tahoe City, Calif., the 212-room Granlibakken Tahoe hotel has lost almost all of its bookings since Sept. 6. Its current occupancy level is 15%, said owner Ron Parson. The hotel and a sister resort lost $1 million in revenue during the fires last year, he said.<br />
<br />
The Mosquito smoke also forced cancellation of a youth soccer tournament called Come Up for Air. Expected to draw 4,000 players on the second and third weekends of this month in South Lake Tahoe, Calif., the cancellation cost $2.5 million in lost revenues from hotels, food and beverages, estimated Brandon Garinger, tournament executive director. He said it was the second such cancellation in a row for the seven-year-old tournament.<br />
<br />
“As soon as the smoke comes in, we lose a lot of customers,” said Kim Childers, a clerk at the Adrift Tahoe sports shop in Kings Beach, Calif. Rentals of kayaks and other watercraft are down by about half from where they are when the skies are more clear, she said. (Jim Carlton)<br />

  • The biggest wildfire in California this year, the 76,000-acre Mosquito Fire, is 50 miles west of Lake Tahoe in the Sierra Nevada foothills.<br />
<br />
Smoke from the Mosquito Fire has prompted cancellations of sporting events, classes at the University of Nevada, Reno campus, hotel bookings and outdoor tours, derailing the start of an autumn season on which many businesses count.<br />
<br />
Tourism-driven businesses can be affected quickly when visitors curtail their activities or cancel reservations entirely. In July 2018, California businesses lost $20 million to cancellations amid a major outbreak of fires, the nonprofit group Visit California reported. Oregon saw a $51 million drop in tourism revenue from similar fires in 2017, according to nonprofit group Travel Oregon.<br />

  • The Mosquito Fire burning in Placer and El Dorado counties grew more slowly Friday and overnight as it consumed dry landscapes, destroying homes and sending thousands of residents fleeing. The wildfire, which started Tuesday evening north of the Oxbow Reservoir, had burned nearly 34,000 acres by Saturday morning and remains 0% contained, making it one of the state’s largest wildfires of the season so far. The Bay Area Air Quality Management District has expanded its air advisory through Saturday to account for the incoming plume of smoke and haze.<br />
