The Bay Area is full of “bestkept secrets.” For the past 35 years The Women’s Cancer Resource Center (WCRC) has been one of them, annually serving more than 2,000 clients and their families. WCRC’s mission has been to improve quality of life for women with cancer and advance equity in cancer support, especially for low-income persons, people of color, and community. Nearly 80% of

The Story of The Mural Honoring the Women of the Black Panther Party Born and raised in Chicago, Jilchristina Vest moved to the Bay Area in 1986 when she was 19 years old. In 1995, after earning degrees in Black Studies, Women’s Studies, and Multicultural Education from San Francisco State University
and the University of San Francisco, she had a job working for OCCUR. There she learned about the rich history of African American success and activism in West Oakland and its connection to The Black Panther
Party. And because of that history, Vest began her search for a home in West Oakland. After two years of searching and with the help of her friends and community, Vest bought Continued on Page 10

She learned that self-reliance isn’t always the answer. In 2019, she was diagnosed with cancer. After a few months of treatment, which affected her ability to think clearly, she realized that she needed to be around other people who had cancer, and she was referred to WCRC.

Sen .Tim Scott Solves Asian Americans’ Model Minority Problem By Emil Guillermo
Asian Americans have long been hampered at times by the “Model Minority” stereotype. What’s that about? You know, how Asian Americans’ success has been used against them in that “look how good they are” way. It’s an excuse to ignore them. Here’s the thinking: as model minorities, we can all ignore them. They don’t need any action or any such handouts. They are model minorities, ergo, the subtext – Why can’t you all be like them! But not this year! Sen. Tim Scott (R-South Carolina) has made a gift to all Asian Americans. We aren’t the model minor-

And tying it on with his own bootstraps. likes to brag: “I get called Uncle Tom and the N-word by progressives, liberals.” But honestly, to say America is not a racist country is possibly a bigger lie than “Trump won last November.” A Biden margin of victory of nearly 7 million voters debunks that lie. It would take just one chapter of Asian American history—just the Filipino part-- to refute Scott. In an historical context, taking away Asian Americans’ “model minority” burden is

State’s Restaurants and Bars Can Apply Learning Black History Year-Round for Aid From $28.6 Billion Relief Fund Odetta Gordon, ‘Queen of American Folk Music’ By Antonio Ray Harvey California Black Media
The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is currently accepting applications to provide emergency assistance to restaurants and bars. Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-CA-13) was an original co-sponsor of the proposal to create the lifeline for restaurants, and she advocated for its inclusion in the American Rescue Plan (ARP). “Black- and minorityowned restaurants and businesses, as well as women and veteran-owned restaurants and businesses, have been hit hardest by this pandemic,” Lee said in a written statement.
“I’m pleased that the SBA will prioritize applications for restaurants in economically or socially disadvantaged commuthe grant program.” The $28.6 billion restaurant relief legislation was signed into law as part of President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion ARP.

Just 7% of U.S. businesses before the coronavirus pandemic were Black-owned, according to data from compiled by a University of California Santa Cruz study last year. In contrast, about 13% of the United States population is Black, and about 13% of restaurant employees are Black, according to federal data. The SBA relief fund portal began accepting applications on April 30. In preparation for the grant program’s opening, the SBA released detailed guidance for those seeking relief money through the restaurant revitalization fund. The SBA has tapped Lendistry, a Southern Californiaadminister restaurant relief funds. The Black-led and operated company is the largest disbursing both federal and state COVID relief money in California. The program will provide restaurants with funding equal to their pandemic-related revenue loss -- up to $10 million per business and no more than $5 million per physical location. Recipients are not required to repay the funding as long as the funds are used for eligible purposes no later than March 11, 2023.

Odetta Gordon (1930–2008) was born in Birmingham, Ala. After her father’s death, she moved to Los Angeles with her mother. What she didn’t leave behind was the soul of Birmingham. The city’s deep Southern music had become a part of young Odetta’s being. At age 13, Odetta studied piano, had voice training and taught herself to play the guitar. Later, she earned a degree in classical music from Los Angeles City College and performed in a 1949 production of “Finian’s Rainbow” in San Francisco. Soon (1950s), she would emerge as an important music scene. supported by performers such as Harry Belafonte and Pete Seeger. With their encouragement, she performed and recorded more widely. Her repertoire included a distinctive blend of spirituals, slave songs, ballads, Caribbean songs and leased her solo recording, “Odetta Sings Ballads and Blues” (1956), followed by “At the Gate of Horn” (1957).

Democrats in Sacramento Take Steps to Make Voting Easier State’s Restaurants and Bars Can Apply for Aid From $28.6 Billion Relief Fund By Aldon Thomas Stiles California Black Media
The electoral process is foundational to the durability of America’s democratic structure. And as the battle for fairer voting laws rages on, politicians and activists on the political Right claim they are responding to allegations of widespread voter and election fraud. Those on the Left say ordinated political offensive to restrict access to the polls and increasing reports of voter suppression. Recently, in some states, most notoriously Georgia and Florida, lawmakers have taken steps to restrict voting access and rights for many Americans. But in California, policymakers and legislators are doing the opposite, making proposals to simplify the voting process and expand access to the polls. Invoking the violent history of voter suppression in the South that her parents endured, which sometimes involved murders, California Secretary of State Shirley Weber says it is a priority of hers to “ensure the right to vote.” “I tell people all the time that no number is good unless it’s 100% in terms of voter participation,” Weber told the Public Policy Institute of California. “Why didn’t 5 million go to out where they are and what stopped them from going.” In the California Legislature, an amendment to Senate Bill (SB) 29, which passed earlier this year, was one bill in a broader legislative effort to secure the right to vote in vulner-
able communities. Before that amendment passed, California law dictated that a ballot would be mailed to all eligible voters for the November 3 statewide general election in 2020, and a Secretary of State vote-by-mail tracking system would ensure votes are counted. SB 29, which the governor signed into law in February, extended those requirements to any election “proclaimed or conducted” prior to Jan. 1, 2022. A record number of voters participated in California elections in 2020. Some political observers attribute that spike to the vote-by-mail system instituted last year. “To maintain a healthy democracy in California, it is important to encourage eligible voters to vote and to ensure that residents of the state have the tools needed to participate in every election,” the bill reads. Senate Bill (SB) 583, introduced by California State Sen. Josh Newman (D-Fullerton), would require the Secretary of State to register or preregister eligible citizens to vote upon retrieving the necessary paperwork from the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).
Citizens who do not wish to be registered can opt-out of the process altogether. Newman stressed the importance of access and simplifying the voter registration process. “In our state there are an estimated 4.6 million U.S. citizens who are eligible to vote who have not yet registered,” Newman said. “Our obligation as the people’s elected representatives is to make the process simpler and more accessible for them.” On April 27, the Senate Transportation Committee passed SB 583 with a 13 to 3 vote. The Appropriations Committee has set a hearing for May 10. Senate Bill (SB) 503, introduced by Sen. Josh Becker (D-Menlo Park), proposes that if a signature shares enough characteristics with a previous signature from the same voter, then it would be recognized as Current law dictates that a signature has to match exactly for it to be considered valid. Disability Rights California organization that advances and protects the rights of Californians living with disabilities, has come out in support of SB 503. “Studies have shown that signature matches disproportionately impact voters with disabilities,” Eric Harris, director of public policy for the DRC wrote in a letter. “Voters with disabilities, including seniors, are more likely to vote by mail and would have to sign their name on their ballots,” Harris argued. “A voter’s signature changes over time and for people with disabilities, a signature can change
nearly every other time one is written. Some people with disabilities might have condi-
sign your name the same way multiple times.” For now, the Senate Appropriations Committee has tabled SB 503, placing the bill in what the Legislature calls awaits further action by lawmakers. At the federal level, lawmakers have introduced two bills in the U.S. Congress to expand voting rights, the For The People Act of 2021 and the John L. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. The For The People Act, or H.R.1, proposes a threepronged approach to expanding election access: Voting, To read the full story, go to postnewsgroup.com

workers in restaurants. “We’ve designed the Restaurant Revitalization Fund program to ensure this relief is delivered with a focus on equity. America’s small businesses are the engine of our economy,” Guzman said. “If we’re going to build back better, we must ensure all of our nation’s entrepreneurs have the tools they need to bring businesses back (and) create jobs. Lee encouraged restaurant owners to submit applications. “I encourage all business owners that need funding to cover food costs, payroll, or any other business expenses to apply for this grant,” Lee statyou through this process.”

Time-of-Use is an energy plan that charges different prices depending on the time of day. Time-of-Use plans offer lower rates — before 4pm and after 9pm — when demand for energy is lower.
d Why should I switch to Time-of-Use? Time-of-Use rate plans give more control over your energy bill if you make small changes — such as turning off lights when the sun is shining, or running appliances like dishwashers and washing machines overnight.
To learn more about Time-of-Use and other rate plans, visit pge.com/touinfo.

Many Black Renters, Hit Most By COVID-19, Remain in Dark About Billions in Relief Funds
Mask Wearing Tips
By Aldon Thomas Stiles California Black Media
California is in the process of rolling out a massive one billion-dollar rental relief program. It is designed to help people who fell behind on their rent due the global coronavirus pandemic recover. But many renters, including Black Californians who lease residential property, may not know about the state’s new CA COVID-19 Rent Relief program, or they may not have details on how to apply for the available assistance. Other advocates say some renters could simply be confused because there are multiple rental relief programs at the county or city level to help renters. One of the many factors that may cause confusion and low awareness in communities about the state’s rental relief program is the state’s under-investment in the public awareness campaign, say some critics who have been following the state’s rollout of rental assistance. Typically, they say, staterun awareness campaigns are executed by public relations and advertising agencies. They then create and deploy campaigns to let state residents know about taxpayerfunded, government-administered programs created to A number of people watching the state process that awarded Prosio Communi$3.2 million contract to get the word out to Californians about rental relief, say the winning by more than half to submit the lowest bid to win the contract. A total of eight companies

applied for the contract that is scheduled to begin in June and end in December. All of them proposed budgets of about $4 million, unlike the winning contractor. “The bidding process was troubling on several fronts, but here are some examples,” said one source who spoke to California Black Media but asked to remain anonymous. “First, the company that won the bid did not cut their own fees. Instead, they slashed the money that the federal government provided – that’s taxpayer money -- to inform people of this critical help.” The source said even though the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) allotted $6 million for public awareness, Prosio’s budget for outreach to Californians has been cut to a mere $2 million. “There is no way on earth (that) $2 million could successfully inform Californians about this program. There’s just no way in a state of 40 million residents,” the source said. The federal government has so far authorized $25 billion to support rental assistance programs in states across the country. Of that money, Cali-
fornia is expected to receive $2.6 billion. A total of $1.5 billion will go directly to the state and another $1.1 billion will be allocated to counties and cities with populations of 200,000 people or more. Black renters accounted for the highest number of Californians -- about 23% of Golden State residents last July -- who could not pay their rent on time, according to a UCLA report. Black renters also had the highest rates (29%) of being behind on housing payments in general due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Among homeowners with a mortgage, Black households also had the highest rates of missed or partial payments at 22%, according to Harvard University’s Joint Center for Housing Studies (JCHS). “An estimated 1.5 million California families, front-line workers and low-wage earners are behind on their rent due to the economic fallout of this pandemic,” said California Business, Consumer Services and Housing Agency (BCSH) Secretary Lourdes Castro Ramirez.

Hundreds of workers and a coalition of over 25 Bay Area groups celebrated May Day in van, block party, and an art installation that explored ways of opening and occupying vacant housing units.

Workers in an Amazon warehouse in Bessemer, Ala., recently lost their vote to unionize, but those who led the unionization effort say Amazon illegally interfered with the process. In her speech, Myhand also said that all workers, including those who do unpaid care work, deserve a living wage, safe work environment, and dignity.

Some 20 years later, Vest found a way to say thank you to Oakland, her friends, community and The Black Panther Party - all the reasons she is here. She has done it by assembling a team to install a 2,000-square-foot mural on the wall of her house to honor the unknown and unseen heroes of The Black Panther Party.
Located at the corner of Center Street and Dr. Huey P. Newton Way, work on the mural been in January of 2021. Vest says this project is also created in conjunction with the #SayHerName movement, and in response to the continued violence and systematic oppression of BIWOC, and as a result of the chronic blindness towards and seeming invisibility of Black women.
