we moved to oakland, california knowing almost nothing about it. we showed up there because we had relatives, and we wanted to be close to our family members. yet, instead of finding an america where the streets were paveeded with gold, we found crumbling schools, unpaved streets, and racist people. that was because we had arrived in inner city america, the heart of the welfare state. one by one, the horrors of the ghetto showed themselves to us. poverty and urban decay plagued our new city. store fronts had shattered windows. streets were marked with potholes. bridges and tunnels were splashed with grafetti. the streets downtown, even near city hall, were often streets that smelled of urine. homeless men and women aggressively pan handed, and that's when they were nice to you, and they costed tourists and residents alike. crime plagued our new city as well. drug dealing seemed much more prevalent at times than employment. muggings took place in plain sight. gunshots rang at night regularly interrupting my tv watching. racism also ruled my town. as

louis to california. it turn turned out that could ba very profitable venture because even back then, things are more expensive in california than they were in st. louis. you to buy a cow or an ox for five or $10 in st. louis, the same animal would cost $50 or more in california. so it was a profitable trip for them. they arrived in dayton nevada in 1853 and they immediately went to work planning for gold in the carson river the next day. they did this for about three years, working code, operating a spot with mixed results. some days very profitable. many days not so much. he did that for three winters, and dealt 1856. one of the letters that we recovered that he had written to his parents, he said he gave the gold mining because there was no water in the river in may of 1856, and they couldn't wash the dirt. so we took up his supplies. he had his wagon and he would go to sacramento and he would buy supplies, liquor, food, clothing, things like that and bring them back over the hill here to the carson va

but increasingly that is what california was trying to do although they didn't want to be open about it because there are cities oliver california parchin bankruptcy that are not in the streets that detroit is in but not that far from it and the way they are looking to get money is by grabbing it from the suburbs and that's what they try to sneak in and that is in the right way to do things openly talking about supporting this issue and having a public debate and then the vote is fine with me. >> i'm from the university of missouri columbia and right now i am working to advocate against and hoping to stop common core. what is the detriment facing the common core? >> first i think it involves a dumbing down. common core advocates say we are actually raising the standards for a certain number of states. that is true that the idea is to find a kind of middle ground that you can pull the lowest performers up to but also effectively lowers the standards for the rest of the country. it sounds crazy when you tell people this. why would anyone want to lower standards and the reason, again i

and he invested in everything california, starting with the california wineries in the first to invest in now. he built the grand hotel. he built new montgomery street and he did all of this. but at the same time nobody knew where one stops and the other started. so in 1875 there is a depression across america. were actually it started a couple of years ago to virginia city ralston had been spending money that really they didn't have and they are supposed to have $2 million in their vault in august of 1870. there is $500,000 and then a bunch of ious from all sin. when that happened, this is where his poker playing comes in. in late august sharon goes into the mining stock market and throws all of the stocks out there for sale. and they say it was the largest sale in the history of the stock market. there have been rumors about what was going on. about ralston overplaying his hand when the pattern. in an sharon was trying to get money to save the bank of california and and he had that money in wells fargo bank, part of his own money. but the rumor had spread and by 230 in the afternoon,

the dropout rate for whites in california, 14%. take a look at african-americans and latinos, my gosh, the rates are 33% and 31%. so no education means few jobs. and that takes us to another issue, incarceration. where we find african-americans comprise tlathd%, that's today, 38% of california's prison population even though they're 6% of the state. critics would point to racial profiling for much of the incarceration. take a step backwards, look at the whole thing, it's fair to say california has become more sensitive to racial equality issues, no question about that, but the fact of the matter is the state has a long ways to go. >> now, you know, you are a professor at san jose state university. you see the young people. i think it's fair to say their experience is very different from the experience of the young people who were following dr. king. >> no question about that. don't forget, we live in kind of a bubble here in northern california where there are all these kinds of groups who have come together in ways that we don't s

the major argument was that california believes, hoping to get as much water as possible, california believed that they were entitled to more than their 4.4 million acre share. that's how we measure the water out here in terms of knowing how much water covers an acre of land a foot deep. it's the largest share of the river. they believed they were entitled to more, and that, certainly, arizona was not entitled 202 -- 2.8 million acres. there was not as much agriculture going on in arizona at the time of the compact in 1922 which remains law, governing who gets how much water, and california said, well, they need to give us some of that water. they shouldn't have all of it because the river, one of the largest tributaries of the colorado runs all the way through the state. the water pulled from that, the salt river, a major source of water for mesa, right here, is part of the colorado. we have to subtract that amount of water, and what's left is their share of the main stem of the river. arizona, of course, said, are you kidding? no. refused to sign the compacts for a lot of years, no

anyone from california? the have these positions that, all the time that the last election the number was proposition 21 the way they do things now california is the right proposition that everyone votes yes or no and it's so long and mind-boggling it's kind of like obamacare for the immigration bill and one of the things they hid inside if it was a kind of not exactly what's going on in minnesota that the equivalent the tax base sharing program. people didn't know that and i ended at explaining to people in california was going on and between the conservatives there was a coalition we finally defeated. the tea party broke with more of the establishment programs because they recognized the language in the crazy proposition that reminded them of the 21. there was very clever. the agenda 21 is good when you think of it as mentioning a set of very dangerous policies. sometimes when people use it to the using it as a shorthand for the set of policy and that is helpful to help the tea party recognize something in

the major argument with california believed, hoping to get as much water as possible, california believed they were entitled to more than their 4.4 million-acre share. that's how we measure the water in terms of how much water can cover an acre of land a foot deep. it is the largest share of the river. they believed they were entitled to more and certainly arizona was not entitled to a full 2.8 million-acre feet. there was not as much agricultural usage of the river going on in arizona at the time of the compact back to 1922, which remains the governing who gets how much water. californians said they need to give us some of that water. they shouldn't have all of that because the gila river, one of the largest tributaries runs all the way through the state. so the water they pull up as well as salt river, a major source for mesa right here is part of the colorado. we have to subtract that amount of water. what is left is their share of the main stem of the river. arizona of course that or you can name? no. refuse to sign the compact for a lot of years until the treaty with mexico. the disa

so far thisd summer we've seen 190,000 acres fwhurnd the state of california. this is the current setup for the rim fire near yosemite. want to she you on the map. the elevation is about 3,000 feet. whenever you go high up into the atmosphere, you lose that friction. so the winds are able to pick up and move around quite a bit easier. this is what we're working with for today. for the next 24 hours, conditions are going to improve. we'll see more of a west early flow, an onshore flow, us stained winds gusting 10 to 20 miles per hour. we could see locally heavier gusts as we get the sundowner winds in the evening. humidity has increased 20% to 40%. temperatures will drop to the mid 80s for today as the area of high pressure retreats to the east little bit. that's the good news, it will take the dry lightning strikes with it. meanwhile in the bay area, we have a welcome change headed our way. area of low pressure will fizzle out. the thunderstorm activity will move well to the north. it won't be as humid today. we have a return on the onshore flow. waking up with

now, fundamentally here, at sue is whether california law can regulate animal protection. now, proponents of the law, conservationists and animal rights folks say cutting fins from live sharks destroys the shark population and puts the public at risk from excessive mercury in the fins. opponents, the restaurants and consumers, largely chinese-americans who view this as a delicacy, they say the shark population is largely unaffected by this practice and the law really discriminates against these people. so the conflict was first tried in u.s. district court a while back where the judge upheld the state law. now it's at to u.s. court of appeals and could go all the way up to the u.s. supreme court. >> there are so many different things that the obama administration can get involved in. why soup? why shark fin soup? >> the obama administration claims it's more than shark fin soup, right? they claim that the federal government has the right to regulate rules for commercial fishing offshore and that a prohibition of the shark fins could harm the shark fishing industry. so sudde

eventually, ronald reagan ran for governor in california and served eight years. he and his wife, nancy reagan, served eight years as the governor of california x he worked really hard to help lower taxes so people's quality of life would be really good. but right when he was done with that, he decided this is the time to buy a ranch. so near santa barbara, high up in the hills, he bought a ranch where he had a horse that he could ride every day if he wanted. he would go out and chop trees and take care of the field and the fences, too, and that was really important to ronald reagan. he liked having that time to think about what he needed to do. people asked him to run for president, and so he did. he ran twice. he ran first in 1976 and lost. and you know it's sometimes hard when you lose to decide you want to run again and try something else again. but he did, and he won in 1980 and went on to be president of the united states. the 40th president. he became friends with mikhail gorbachev. do you know who that was? he was the leader of russia at the time. and rona

the first was in 1996 when california legalizes medical marijuana. until this point the argument for this kind of force is bad drug dealers were dangerous people that were heavily armed, they have no moral qualms about killing police officers and their rebuttals to those arguments, but those were the arguments being made. that we need this kind of force to respond to a proportional threat. california legalizes medical marijuana and follow suit and the government responds by sending s.w.a.t. teams to these medical marijuana clinics. so these clinics are openly operating and they are operating under state law. they are not going to take a gun out from out of the counter and told them to federal agents. so i waited a minute that this is kind of the terrorizing development. this is not normally what happens with a free society. so this major milestone, this is probably in the last decade or so. where stories were being used for increasingly heavy crimes. we see responses from local communities where the s.w.a.t. teams are now reading these neighborhoods.
