We’re honored to bring you On KQED. We know some of you read it every month, even circling the shows you don't want to miss, but we also know that many of you prefer to use the online version or our website. To be honest, printing and mailing a high volume of the magazine is very expensive. In these challenging times, we need to focus our resources on fact-based, local and inclusive news reporting and thoughtful storytelling. By limiting the number of printed copies, we can ensure that your generous contribution has the greatest impact and goes directly to supporting KQED’s mission, where it matters most. Beginning with the November issue, we’re making some changes. Members will no longer receive the printed magazine automatically. Instead, it will be available to read or download online. However, to be sure that those who rely on the printed magazine receive it, we'll continue to print a limited number of copies. If you'd like to keep receiving a print version please let us know NO LATER THAN SEPTEMBER 15 by filling out a form at kqed.org/onkqed, by emailing us at [email protected] or by calling 415.553.2150. We'll make every effort to honor your request. We regret having to make this change, but it's unavoidable at this time.

The digital version of On KQED, which is available online about a week before the beginning of each month, includes these new features:• A PDF of the entire magazine with clickable links so

you can learn more about what interests you most. • A one-page PDF listing of our radio shows. • An alphabetical listing of all TV shows and their

air date and time, including repeat times (formerly called A–Z; now called TV Shows with Repeat Times).

Also, you can always find back issues of On KQED online at kqed.org/onkqed.

Thank you. We’re extremely grateful for your understanding and support. All the best,

In July, nearly a decade after Proposition 8, which banned same-sex marriage in California, was struck down in San Francisco, a federal judge here ordered that video documentation of the trial be unsealed. The ruling came after KQED and its counsel Thomas R. Burke argued that the tapes should be available to the public.

In 2008, Prop 8 banned same-sex marriage in California. The trial of Perry v. Schwarzenegger was later held to determine its constitutionality. Tapes of that trial, which were made at the behest of Honorable Vaughn Walker, the judge who led those proceedings, were to remain sealed for ten years from the end of the trial.

In recent years, some Prop 8 proponents have argued that the court should extend the seal, and a virtual court hearing was held about it in June.

In his ruling, District Court Judge William H. Orrick argued that the motion contained “no justification, much less a compelling one, to keep the trial recordings under seal any longer.”

“It’s incredibly important to have it be open, not only for the historical record, but so the people can see this particular trial video,” said Burke. “It’s one of the only federal trial videos of its kind ever in the United States.”

KQED Senior Editor Scott Shafer helped advance KQED’s effort, as well as Burke.

Prop 8 proponents appealed Judge Orrick’s decision to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. The court has since issued a temporary stay of the unsealing order and has imposed an expedited briefing process for the appeal.

Airs Wednesday, September 2, at 8pmThe coronavirus pandemic represents the greatest challenge to American higher education in decades. Many colleges and universities are closing or dramatically cutting their offerings. Students’ lives and academic plans are in turmoil. Millions of students are going to class online, many for the first time. It’s a time of intense difficulty, risk and potential promise. This special from APM Reports explores the issues facing institutions, students and families.

Airs Saturday, September 5, at 6pm The killing of George Floyd by police officers in Minneapolis has sparked another wave of national outrage over police brutality and violence. Protesters have taken to the streets demanding an end to police violence, and the movement is asking for police departments to be defunded or completely abolished. In this special, we explore what policing could look like and the role research and science might play in serious reform. We talk with experts about the effects police violence is having on Black Americans’ health — both mental and physical. It’s not only the actual violence, but also the constant fear of violence and fear of being stopped and arrested that’s causing stress and anxiety. We hear ideas for reform, along with how we can improve, or even reinvent, American policing.

STARTER EPISODE

“The Debate over Objectivity in Journalism”1A describes itself as the “home of national conversation,” rightfully so as the podcast truly makes you think and want to continue the discussion with your friends and family. The topic up for debate in this episode: “Is it partisan for the press to say Black Lives Matter?”

STARTER EPISODE

“Reproducing Racism”A fusion of investigative journalism and storytelling, Reveal goes deeply into today’s issues. This episode explores how the legacy of racism affects maternal health in the U.S., starting with the history of the “father of modern gynecology,” who experimented on enslaved women in the 1840s, to what physicians are doing now to fight this injustice.

STARTER EPISODE

“ 'Angel Parents’ Karega and Felicia Bailey on Grief and Love”Rightnowish is KQED's Arts & Culture podcast introducing audiences to culture movers and shakers in the Bay Area. In this episode, Karega and Felicia Bailey share their story of handling grief after losing a baby and discuss the power of affirmations.

Building the American Dream: The Little-Known Story of Immigrant Construction WorkersThere are stories we may not have heard before that are important to know. Learning about them opens our eyes, and in so doing can help move the country forward toward a more just and equitable future. Building the American Dream is one of these little-known stories. In this documentary, the mistreatment of immigrant construction workers steps into the light.

The film, a new VOCES special from Latino Public Broadcasting, takes us to Texas, the site of a massive construction project called the “Texas Miracle.” However, what’s happening there is far from miraculous for some. The film captures the rise of a workers’ movement fighting widespread constructio industry injustices, which include unpaid wages and deadly working conditions. We meet several of the people affected and, through their personal stories of courage, resilience and community, we learn some eye-opening truths about immigrants who are working on this project.

Building the American Dream airs on Tuesday, September 15, at 10pm on KQED 9. The film is part of a series of shows scheduled this month for Latinx Heritage Month. —Ellyn Hament
