following Schaaf’s administration since the Ghost Ship fire — when 36 people died at a dance party in an Oakland warehouse that was home to many artists, but which had never been fully inspected by fire officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the tragedy, Schaaf has tried to walk a fine line between tougher safety enforcement and protecting artists from eviction. In announcing her plans for reelection, Schaaf wrote, “I will also fight to protect our small Oakland-grown businesses, artists and non-profit organizations from displacement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Libby has really stepped out on a limb for us,” says \u003ca href=\"http://formandreform.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jon Sarriugarte\u003c/a>, a commercial artist in West Oakland active in the group \u003ca href=\"http://artistsofthebay.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">We the Artists of the Bay Area\u003c/a>.

I first heard of the network’s plans while mourners were sound-checking for a \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/2017/02/21/grace-cathedral-hosts-an-eclectic-musical-elegy-for-ghost-ship/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ghost Ship tribute concert\u003c/a> at Grace Cathedral. That’s too soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I then heard that the Ghost Ship narrative would be spread out among not one but three shows, including \u003cem>Chicago PD\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Chicago Justice\u003c/em>, in a “crossover television event!”, the same day I visited a \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/2017/02/21/new-mural-in-oakland-honors-victims-of-deadly-warehouse-fire/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">memorial mural honoring the 36 people who died\u003c/a> painted just days prior. That’s too soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But let’s be clear: Even if a year had passed already, this type of craven story-stealing is not art. This is lazy television, as uninspired as the billionth Hollywood sequel, and just as crass. This is producer Dick Wolf, fresh from a five-year deal that \u003ca href=\"http://variety.com/2016/tv/news/law-order-svu-chicago-med-renewed-dick-wolf-nbc-deal-1201693944/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a \u003cem>Variety\u003c/em> source calls\u003c/a> “the best (profit) definition in all of television,” latching onto a horrific disaster for ratings. This is taking the Bay Area’s pain, taking families’ grief, taking the deaths of three dozen young people and ch-chinging all the way to Nielsen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a way, this shouldn’t be surprising. Wolf’s shows, including \u003cem>Law & Order\u003c/em>, routinely mine current events for plot ideas; last year, as many have pointed out, \u003cem>Law & Order: SVU\u003c/em> did an episode about the San Bernardino attack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, at a certain point, we knew this story no longer belonged to us. On the weekend of the fire, the national media descended upon Oakland. They knocked on doors and called families and friends nonstop, looking for anyone to offer up their grief and cry on camera. At a certain point within the week, people started saying no, distrusting the pattern of being turned into emotional carrion for viewers. They started shutting down and declining interviews. They saw the game for what it was.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Television couldn’t have real people to talk about the fire anymore. So it had to make up its own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”SFzxMC7oa3f5F5gE1duljE9G9LmlR9Fp”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is not art. I already said that. But it bears repeating. Because those people who died in the fire? They made art. Which is another reason why I’m strongly suggesting not watching the “crossover television event” tonight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are a few things I want you to do instead:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Listen to Johnny Igaz’s \u003ca href=\"https://nacktmusic.bandcamp.com/album/virex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">electronic music\u003c/a>.

That’s too soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I then heard that the Ghost Ship narrative would be spread out among not one but three shows, including \u003cem>Chicago PD\u003c/em> and \u003cem>Chicago Justice\u003c/em>, in a “crossover television event!”, the same day I visited a \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/2017/02/21/new-mural-in-oakland-honors-victims-of-deadly-warehouse-fire/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">memorial mural honoring the 36 people who died\u003c/a> painted just days prior.

This is lazy television, as uninspired as the billionth Hollywood sequel, and just as crass. This is producer Dick Wolf, fresh from a five-year deal that \u003ca href=\"http://variety.com/2016/tv/news/law-order-svu-chicago-med-renewed-dick-wolf-nbc-deal-1201693944/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a \u003cem>Variety\u003c/em> source calls\u003c/a> “the best (profit) definition in all of television,” latching onto a horrific disaster for ratings. This is taking the Bay Area’s pain, taking families’ grief, taking the deaths of three dozen young people and ch-chinging all the way to Nielsen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a way, this shouldn’t be surprising. Wolf’s shows, including \u003cem>Law & Order\u003c/em>, routinely mine current events for plot ideas; last year, as many have pointed out, \u003cem>Law & Order: SVU\u003c/em> did an episode about the San Bernardino attack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, at a certain point, we knew this story no longer belonged to us. On the weekend of the fire, the national media descended upon Oakland. They knocked on doors and called families and friends nonstop, looking for anyone to offer up their grief and cry on camera. At a certain point within the week, people started saying no, distrusting the pattern of being turned into emotional carrion for viewers. They started shutting down and declining interviews. They saw the game for what it was.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Television couldn’t have real people to talk about the fire anymore. So it had to make up its own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is not art. I already said that. But it bears repeating.

He’d ask anyone to be part of his shows — people of color, queers, trans people, non-binary performers, lovers of noise and industrial sounds,” she says. Gentile says the billed names on Micah’s lineups were rarely recognizable, because he “was always working hard to encourage someone to play their first set, to keep performing. He would bring artists from different circles together and do away with arbitrary lines dividing music scenes and genres.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12490438\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 540px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer.jpg\" alt=\"Micah Danemayer\" width=\"540\" height=\"540\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12490438\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer.jpg 540w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-160x160.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-240x240.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-375x375.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-520x520.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-50x50.jpg 50w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-64x64.jpg 64w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-96x96.jpg 96w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-128x128.jpg 128w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Micah Danemayer.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Friend and fellow Oakland DJ Jason Polastri remembers Micah as someone who “didn’t seem scare-able by the things that often make people insecure about sharing their art.” More than that, he used his limitless energy not just to embolden others to act creatively, but also, Polastri says, “to actively make and build space for creative expression to take root and grow.

He’d ask anyone to be part of his shows — people of color, queers, trans people, non-binary performers, lovers of noise and industrial sounds,” she says. Gentile says the billed names on Micah’s lineups were rarely recognizable, because he “was always working hard to encourage someone to play their first set, to keep performing. He would bring artists from different circles together and do away with arbitrary lines dividing music scenes and genres.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12490438\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 540px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer.jpg\" alt=\"Micah Danemayer\" width=\"540\" height=\"540\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12490438\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer.jpg 540w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-160x160.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-240x240.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-375x375.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-520x520.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-50x50.jpg 50w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-64x64.jpg 64w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-96x96.jpg 96w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-128x128.jpg 128w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/MicahDanemayer-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Micah Danemayer.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Friend and fellow Oakland DJ Jason Polastri remembers Micah as someone who “didn’t seem scare-able by the things that often make people insecure about sharing their art.” More than that, he used his limitless energy not just to embolden others to act creatively, but also, Polastri says, “to actively make and build space for creative expression to take root and grow.

There seemed to be no end to her enthusiasm for the people whose paths she had crossed in her 32 years.

She spoke about her parents and how different they were from one another, and how much she loved them for those differences. On a lighter note, she reported that Alex had taught her to swear like an Oakland hipster, and then proceeded to show off her newly acquired skill with impressive acumen, as Alex looked on beaming.

As a child she played piano and danced. She also loved to go hiking to the Koli national park in eastern Finland and swimming in the lake at their summer cottage. Yoga came to Hanna through her mother, and before she turned 30, she was the “boss lady” of the yoga studio her mother had founded. The yoga studio was a cozy spot in the center of Helsinki and everyone felt welcome there. Hanna was a gentle and inspiring teacher. She taught her signature classes, “Reggae yoga” with a live DJ. The fun was contagious. Hanna enjoyed organizing parties and making tasty dishes for her friends. Her crew was a colorful bunch of lively, creative people who loved her. She was never judgmental and always saw good in people. She was always ready to fight for the rights of those in need. She even started an anti-racism demonstration after reading about a violent act that took place at the Helsinki railway station.

There seemed to be no end to her enthusiasm for the people whose paths she had crossed in her 32 years. And while we lamented the coarsening of political dialogue in America and Finland, Hanna spoke with gritty, upbeat determination about “not sitting down” when it was time to “stand up,” referencing her own activism on behalf of Syrian and other refugees in Helsinki.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hanna seemed to me every inch the true Finn: bold and forthright, punctuating her points at least three times that evening with slaps to my shoulder (and I’m not talking love taps.) She spoke about her parents and how different they were from one another, and how much she loved them for those differences. On a lighter note, she reported that Alex had taught her to swear like an Oakland hipster, and then proceeded to show off her newly acquired skill with impressive acumen, as Alex looked on beaming. Through it all, Hanna kept returning to people, the human race, their essential goodness and the great opportunity we humans have to connect to each other.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hanna wrote the following on her Facebook page last Father’s Day:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Today we celebrate Father’s Day in Finland.

As a child she played piano and danced. She also loved to go hiking to the Koli national park in eastern Finland and swimming in the lake at their summer cottage. Yoga came to Hanna through her mother, and before she turned 30, she was the “boss lady” of the yoga studio her mother had founded. The yoga studio was a cozy spot in the center of Helsinki and everyone felt welcome there. Hanna was a gentle and inspiring teacher. She taught her signature classes, “Reggae yoga” with a live DJ. The fun was contagious. Hanna enjoyed organizing parties and making tasty dishes for her friends. Her crew was a colorful bunch of lively, creative people who loved her. She was never judgmental and always saw good in people. She was always ready to fight for the rights of those in need. She even started an anti-racism demonstration after reading about a violent act that took place at the Helsinki railway station. She was a bright light who always had time to listen, give insightful advice, laugh and dance!\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>It is difficult and far beyond the power of words to convey the depth of the loss of such a bright light at such a young age. When there is so much that we can’t understand at a time like this, there is comfort in knowing that this remarkable woman’s life will shine on for years to come in the memories of those who knew her.

That’s what Wadsworth was. A friend of his — who would only talk to KQED if we agreed not to use his name because he wanted to honor how Wadsworth “didn’t like to draw any attention to himself” — says, “he was one of the smartest guys I knew (literally genius level in my estimation), and always wanted to be part of a big idea, from behind the scenes. He’s had impact in the early stages of at least one of the biggest California tech success stories, but no one would know because that’s not how he wants to be known. Wicked nice guy with a big heart and always willing to make time for others.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wadsworth’s high school literature teacher, Steven Craig, wrote a blog post about his former student upon hearing the news of his death: “His papers were grammatically flawed but philosophically insightful, and I pushed him to explore the boundaries of his thinking,” Craig writes. “As he would sit in my room long after class to discuss Oscar Wilde (a personal favorite for both of us), Shakespeare or Huxley, I knew I had this kid hooked. He was sort of like my prized protégé, comprised of an intellect that had the cutting ability to see through the bullshit but the passionate heart to embrace all the world had to offer us nonetheless.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wadsworth’s good friend, Tammy Tasoff, a dental student at UCSF, tells the \u003cem>San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/em> how he would help her with her computer and her organization. “He’d make me food. He took really good care of me. He was like my big brother.” Wadsworth’s Facebook page reveals that he even helped Tasoff gather teeth to study dentistry: “A friend of mine is in dental school and I know a few of you are dentists, then there are a few married to dentists and all of you (should) be seeing dentists!” his post on the subject says. “If you can ask them for teeth (adult human please) that she can practice on it would be pretty fantastic to help out her and if there is a surplus, her classmates.

He saw the potential for technology and how it could be helpful. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-800x800.jpg\" alt=\"peter-wadsworth_courtesy-of-facebook\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-12483758\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-800x800.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-160x160.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-768x768.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-240x240.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-375x375.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-520x520.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-50x50.jpg 50w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-64x64.jpg 64w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-96x96.jpg 96w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-128x128.jpg 128w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/12/Peter-Wadsworth_courtesy-of-Facebook-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A thinker.

A friend of his — who would only talk to KQED if we agreed not to use his name because he wanted to honor how Wadsworth “didn’t like to draw any attention to himself” — says, “he was one of the smartest guys I knew (literally genius level in my estimation), and always wanted to be part of a big idea, from behind the scenes. He’s had impact in the early stages of at least one of the biggest California tech success stories, but no one would know because that’s not how he wants to be known.
