Standpoint when slavery ended with the 13th amendment and soon after the chinese communities were excluded from entering the countries due to the chinese exclusion act of 1882. In rent history the black community was red lined to the out skirts of the city. Japanese americans were sent to internment camps. They have been targeted and most recently the newly latin students. The trauma continues to exist in our communities today. This is not the america we envisioned but this can be the San Francisco that we need to correct the wrongs of history. We cannot forget the pain and suffering of aning of ancestors. We are the wildest dreams of ancestors whose voices were silenced. Here i stand before you to open the conversation on reparations to lead to a plan with a reparations package for black people in this city. The institution of slavery broke up families and matched away the opportunity to create wealth and build opportunitying from our families from generation and generation. We are ex

Unfortunately as we see 30 people were hit and killed each year on the streets and over 500 are seriously injured and we all want that number to go to zero, though, so that is far too many. I have been h

Jim cramer show mad money and it was the epitome of it was basically just one. Were interrupting that episode of the kaiser report to welcome you back to our studio here and moscow taking over for a bit from our colleagues at our 2 k.

Leadership to improve these vehicles. And we try to address concerns and some of the improvements that we have already made. I also shared by email this board and a response to a recent article that talks about white out for the cameras, and unfortunately, i believe there were several inaccuracies to that article. One of which is that the issue of glare is not unique to the l. R. P. Four or the fact that we use cameras instead of mirrors. The glare is most acute at west portal, which is why 15 years ago, we actually put up a convex mirror to provide additional availability visibility for our operators, which is part of how they are currently trained. [please stand by] we have, as part of the costing package that we originally brought to you, we have some place holder costs for what we anticipate things to be, so Something Like the flat wheels, which is an issue that both operators and mechanics have been raising for a long time are already built into that overall package that we brough
