CARA and AFT 2121 Meet Hillary Ronen Supporting Union Workers at VCA

Yesterday, July 12, several of us CARA members went from our meeting at the ILWU to the VCA, a specialty vet place on Alabama and 18th Street,  to support the employees, whose recently-formed union wasn't being honored by the corporation that bought VCA for $8 billion.

CCCSF's Culinary Arts Graduates Enhance Frida Kahlo Way

Ah, City College! On my way to pick up a cake for our celebration of Frida Kahlo's 111th birthday (a celebration begun at 11 Frida Kahlo Way and at 1:00 PM), I was at a crosswalk when a young woman told me she liked my red, and I told her what it was for. She replied, "Oh, I just graduated from City College!" I invited her to join us, but she said she was putting her degree in cinema to work and had an audition that afternoon! Then in the Wholesome Bakery (so sorry about that name) I met three graduates of CCSF's Culinary Arts program! The event itself --beautifully composed, orchestrated, and conducted by Leslie Simon, who got the praise she deserved from Noemi Sohn's heart-felt tribute--was a very meaningful and upbeat way of celebrating Frida Kahlo Way.
