10 Years ago today, I wrote this op-ed about community college in response to an ignorant comment about transfer students. I'm a proud Berkeley City College alumna & now Mayor of Berkeley, so hopefully we can change some more minds!

A digital flyer for a "Watch Party" event featuring a documentary screening and panel discussion. The event takes place on Tuesday, April 1, from 5:15 - 7:30 PM at Ed Roberts Campus. The flyer includes the documentary title, "Change Not Charity: The Americans with Disabilities Act," with a graphic of a wheelchair-accessible icon surrounded by stars. The text highlights "Access for Every Body" and emphasizes "Change, Not Charity." The event is presented by the Center for Independent Living (CIL) and the Disability Rights Education & Defense Fund (DREDF). Food and drinks are provided, and attendees are encouraged to RSVP via Eventbrite. The background is deep blue, with red and white accents for contrast.

March is #RedCrossMonth - a time to acknowledge the important work the Red Cross does providing aid and comfort in times of crisis as well as offering life-saving trainings. Thank you to John Earthy for joining the Berkeley City Council earlier this month to accept our proclamation!

I am strongly in favor of this change. Over 15 years ago, 5-year old Zachary was killed at this intersection. We have known for years that this is dangerous, and it's past time that we do something about it. Thank you for your leadership on pedestrian safety, @markhumbert.bsky.social.

I think it's so brave in these divisive times to share these opinions in such a close space. They said it sparks conversations with their passengers.

Berkeley has reaffirmed Sanctuary City status! I'm so proud of the parents, kids, community groups, faith orgs, and Japanese Americans who came to support our council item. We must stand united against policies that seek to cause fear & separate families.

An airplane wing with a view of the East Bay from the sky. There's a tinge of a sunset and a blanket of fog, clouds, and possibly smoke.
It's looking a bit smoggy from above the Bay. How's the air down there? Are folks smelling smoke?

West Point cadet speaks about the importance of community. She said, leadership is not something innate but a reflection of the communities that raise us. I reflect on our Berkeley community & how I owe so much to the people who believed in me and lifted me up. We owe all young people our support.

This morning, we're hearing from a Ukrainian mayor who is sharing his experience of dealing with war in his city. He shared a story of a family who lost their father. Their mother lost a leg, and their daughter lost two legs. Last week, their daughter ran in the Boston Marathon.
