| The Future of Campus Policing | | Wednesday, April 21 | 6:00pm | | |
| | In the wake of national protests against racism and police brutality, colleges and universities are taking a hard look at their own policing practices. University of California student activists are calling for the university to abolish its in-house police department, and the Peralta Community College District recently voted to end its contract with the Alameda County Sheriff’s Department. Some campuses are announcing more gradual changes to the way they ensure safety, such as shifting some responsibilities to unarmed security guards or mental health counselors.
Join KQED and CalMatters for a ranging discussion with students and administrators about how we rethink the role of police on campuses. | | |

| On Common Ground: Hyper-Local Climate Resilience | | Thursday, April 22 | 6:00 pm | | |
| | | Many populations adapt to climate change via migration, but for some adaptation looks like the fight to remain in place. In this evening of conversation we’ll look at how resiliency takes hold on a local level in two very different locations. We’ll hear from Terrie Harris-Green (Shore Up Marin), who is currently working with other local activists to keep Marin City from becoming a recurring flood zone, and Beth Rose Middleton Manning (Department Chair of Native American Studies at UC Davis), about how the Native Land Trust Alliance is collaborating with non-Native land conservationists to re-establish and sustain the tribes’ relationships with their ancestral lands in the Sierra Nevadas. | | |
