  • From Transbay Blog: Proposition 26, and its implications for transportation funding (Part 1)
  • The Informant reports on the ACLU of Northern California’s study that found that Alameda County’s superior court “suffers from systemic underrepresentation of African-American and Latinos in its jury pools.”
  • From Tenderblog, this video, described as “shot using HD cameras and the Barbie Video Girl toy video camera. Hopefully, the film is successful in painting an absurdly happy picture of Tenderloin life, and then re-rendering its portrait of the neighborhood into a sinister and gritty one.”
