Andrea nakano joins us from oakland where voters could intentionally make changes to the citys Police Commission. Reporter oakland voters approved measure ll in 2016 to create the stability of Police Commission button order to independently investigate allegations of police misconduct, it needed a little help and thats why measure as one is on the ballot. We have to create trust and reform police. We have to demonstrate that we have a holistic vision of public safety. Those were some of the goals the Police Commission hoped to accomplish as it was created to oversee the Oakland Police department policies. But over the last four years there has been some confusion on how to do its job. Measure s of one make the commission an independent body of the administration and allow them to hire their own attorneys and create an independent office. Some opponents say it still would not fix the issues but the Officers Association is even recommending a yes vote on s1. This will hold the Bigger Picture and we can focus together on the crime. There are now more than 80 murders in oakland this year, the most in the last three years.

And a reminder, kpix 5 has a new app that gives you 24 7 access to cbsn bay area and tonight our original series project home, artists in San Francisco street have found an unusual way to try to save their housing. A weekly drag show. Large crowds are fanning out in front of the Red Victorian every saturday night. Susie steimle explains the real drama of this drag show is what is taking place offstage. It is unconventional. Reporter it is difficult to put into words. Transport gender nine conforming performance or drag a jason. From the crowd on the street to performers onstage, a lot of people that consider themselves others. People that you wouldnt normally see in mainstream drag. While the stage is a bear it all, soulful and sexual melodrama, the real story is behind the scenes. Nearly everyone you saw on stage here is at risk of losing their housing. They been staying inside the Red Victorian which used to be a hotel a covid shut those operations down read many of the artists worked inside this hotel and then started staying here during the pandemic. But the nonprofit that leases this space a the artists never had permission to stay here, they are trespassing and it is time to go. My stomach dropped and it felt like i was injected with ice water. I will be homeless. And a lot of the other people who live here will be homeless as well. If we were to be displaced from this place, i dont know where anyone would go. They raise money to replace the most funding from the hotel and artists say they had an understanding that they could stay here and there dream is to turn this into housing for black and Indigenous People of color that are transitioning. It is popular, pack the sidewalk every night popular. District commons is a nonprofit that helps ells formerly incarcerated people and supports the community with art shows like what is going on at the red vick. In the Peaceful World foundation says artists were given permission to put together a show but not to live there. They were given permission to run events there for free with much love and excitement, you know. But they decided to stay and thats when things get difficult. The standoff could put their nonprofit out of business. We are not the hilton or salesforce tower. This is not sticking it to the man. We are at tiny nonprofit, and i dont think this is how we get to the utopian we are all seeking. For now they are at an impasse, it comes down to money which has been the motivator for white artists and others have struggled to stay in this city that once masqueraded as their safe haven. I dont think we should blame individuals for these things, maybe the city of San Francisco could look into supporting these marginalized people so they dont hurt each other. With everything going on politically, the places where we can safely exist are shrinking by the day. The artists have paid 5000 toward utilities at the Red Victorian but they do not have a formal lease. District commons is intending to file a motion in court this week saying that these artists are trespassing and they have to leave. It sounds like both of them are trying to have good intentions, is an amicable solution on the table at all . You would hope so. These are nonprofits and artists that all have similar goals, and this is also a mostly vacant hotel during the housing crisis but at this point everyone is with a lawyer and it comes down to the money. It comes down to the money, thats exactly where most of these problems come from. Keep sending your stories and ideas to project home and see all of the reporting on our website.

That wind will start to push moisture back onshore and cranial relative humidity, in the 30 to 50 range as opposed to 10 to 15 where we were 24 hours ago or less than 10 48 hours ago.

October 1988, red, red wine was number one hit song, jody foster was the accused number one in the box office and thats the last time the dodgers won the world series. In game six, the first solo blast, randy, with his 10th home run of the postseason and then gone after an ending into thirds. It seemed like enough, the rays lefty blake still struck out 9 in 5 innings and he had a vision of forcing a game 7. But in the sixth, the dodgers second head all night on snell but the race manager came out of the dugout with a hook. Incomes nick anderson, he gave a double to mookie betts and then the wild pitch and the game is tied. Next batter corey seeger, zero shots to get looking at the plate. Josh takes it to a 21 lead.

Do you think there was anything you could have done to stay in the game longer . No shot, that was one of my better games ive pitched in a long time, honestly.

That man more than anybody deserves to take a picture with the trophy, celebrate with us and enjoy this moment. That got taken away from him, and that is just not right.
