You are invited to come to the final that our other class is having. It is on Monday Dec 18 at 6:30 pm. The class is in room 510, bottom floor of the 500 building.  You should really try to make it! Please bring 2 copies of your essay Draft at that time. You need to have at least 9 paras at that time.

If you cant make it, then you should plan to send me your draft over email by next Monday.

Meanwhile, below are some of the sources we have been looking at. Some of them are more focused on particular questions from the assignment.


1. this article talks about how community action has made a difference. good for Q3.

article in NYTimes

2. This grad school level video (when it comes to the concepts) offers some surprising perspectives about "helping" others. It is good for all the Q's.

3. this is the vid we watched about communities taking more control over their money. Also, the website this is on is really good for pulling more quotes.

Short Vid on "Participatory Budgeting"


4. these 2 PDF reports go deep into bay area issues...good for Qs 1 and 2.

More Urban issues

5. This links to city of Hayward. You can check it out to get a sense of Q2 and Q3--how cities relate to their citizens
excellent link to "discover Hayward"

6. this is a     link      to the Story of Stuff video we watched a while back. It is of course about consumption, but it is also about making change. It can work with several of the questions, including the conclusion Q, #5.  This page takes you to a number of their movies, including The Story of Change, which of course is what this paper is about.

HW for the 102 class, due on Monday 11th

hey all, its time to write... and to also read..to get more ideas for the questions...


HW for Monday.
1. need to finish up Q's 1 and 2, with full paras....THEN
2. Read these 2 reports below,   to get ideas for Q 3 and 4, THEN,
3. Please  do Q's 3 and 4, you don't need full paras, but you should have 3-4-5s for them..which means you should know what your concepts are...




there are two links below...they are both REALLY good, and will help you with your questions....honestly, all 4 of the main questions get addressed in these reports do
below is what the organization says about their reports....:


Inequality is transforming the Bay Area. Low-income communities and communities of color are increasingly living at the expanding edges of our region. There they often struggle to find quality jobs and schools, affordable housing, accessible public transportation, adequate social services, and environmentally safe and healthy neighborhoods.

In our
2016 report, Race, Inequality, and the Resegregation of the Bay Area, we provided an eleven county overview of these trends between 2000-2014. In our new discussion paper, Regional Resegregation: Reflections on Race, Class, and Power in Bay Area Suburbs, we take a closer look at how these changes are impacting three Bay Area sub-regions: southern Santa Clara County, eastern Contra Costa County, and south central Solano County.


also, don't forget that the NY times article and the video we watched BOTH have cool ideas for Q 3 and 4...
