SB School District vir tual board meetings to feature live public comment

Once registered, Zoom meeting details will be emailed to the speaker, including further instructions for calling in. Speakers can join the meeting at any time, but are asked to join the meeting at least one agenda item prior to the item on which they wish to speak or prior to the Public Comment item, whichever comes first.

This new system allows stakeholders to address the Board live during the public comment portion of the meeting. The previous method of submitting written comments by email before the meeting has been discontinued. In addition, the District has selected Zoom video conferencing as the new platform for Board of Education meetings.

“Public stakeholder participation is important to our Board of Education and our entire school district,” Vollkommer said. “Although we look forward to eventually returning to our in-person meetings, for now, we are providing a safe alternative by encouraging live, virtual participation and engagement.”

The seven-member governing body has been meeting remotely since March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and Gov. Gavin Newsom’s stay-at-home order. While the public could watch the meetings live and submit written comments online, they

glassblowing is,” she said. “We develop relationships with glass through so much practice and fails, and when I finally get to create something beautiful, the reward is worth devoting my life for.”

“It was so much fun getting to know other talented artists, including the production team for the show,” she said.

The second season of Blown Away is once again hosted by YouTube science influencer “Nickpedia” and former NBC’s America’s Got Talent contestant, Nick Uhas.

Calvin made a motion to table voting on changing the zoning district classification from commercial general (CG-1) to industrial light (IL), in which Councilman Ben Reynoso made a second.

“I think for viewers who are newly fascinated by glassblowing that they are going to see some incredible things this season,” Gray said. “Even I saw some things that I hadn’t seen before!”

“I will veto this under my privileges, this is unacceptable. This is a big economic impact to our city. The motion remains and under my authority, I will veto that,” said Valdivia.

The Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York, an esteemed partner of the series, is offering the Blown Away winner a grand prize of an artist’s residency at their museum following the competition. The museum is also hosting an exhibit featuring 10 works created on the show, one by each contestant. “People really worked hard, got out of their comfort zones, and were surprising and ambitious in different ways,” Gray said. “And there were different personalities to respond and react to, even for me.”

As a student, Yamamoto worked in CSUSB’s glass-making facility where she “spent a lot of time playing with glass and making goblets.” “I appreciated that CSUSB gave me so much freedom during the MFA program,” Yamamoto said. “I feel so much connection to glass and I love how challenging

Center would like to engage the voter as Councilmember Calvin and not councilmember-elect. I have not had the opportunity to look at any of this information…while many of you have been studying this project for months. I haven’t been able to speak to developers, planners or address constituents; I’m asking that we table this matter until I’m able to look deeper into this center,” said Calvin.

Ultimately, the motion passed, but was quickly vetoed by Mayor John Valdivia.

Valdivia proceeded to introduce Greens Development Managing Principal Atman Kadakia, who shared specifics on the forthcoming project. “Currently, the location is a vacant site with dozens of diesels parked illegally. We expect to bring in over $1 million a year directly to the city’s general fund and generate over $40 million to the city’s general fund over 30 years,” said Kadakia. The travel center is said to feature over 8 acres and 14,000-square-feet of space, which will include five restaurants, restrooms, private showers, a laundry facility and a lounge. “In addition to providing a significant amount of gas and tax revenue (which can be used for the city’s improvements), we’re going to provide 160 jobs in a time when there’s so much uncertainty; we will do everything we can to support the residents of Verdemont,” concluded Kadakia. About half of the council expressed various concerns about the project including Councilman Reynoso who had questions regarding potential environmental impacts and Councilmember Sandra Ibarra expressed concern over how the two-lane freeway could result in an increase of heavy traffic in the area. “We need to be responsible with this development and ensure some type of protection for the people in the Verdemont area. I have also expressed my concerns about the environmental impacts and I’ll follow up with Mr. Kadakia on that,” said Reynoso. The item passed with oppositions from Calvin, Reynoso and Ibarra. “This item passes and will be a huge revenue generator in our city. Thank you Mr. Kadakia and welcome to San Bernardino,” concluded Valdivia. The project does not bring any economic impacts to the city of San Bernardino as the developer is the sole proprietor.

Newsom rolls out Califor nia state budget, prioritizing education, vaccinations

C

alifornia Governor Gavin Newsom rolled out the 2021-22 state budget Jan. 8, a $227 billion proposal which prioritizes vaccinations, re-opening schools safely, support for small businesses, and direct cash payments for low-income people. “Our budget reflects the realities of a pandemic-induced recession which has exacerbated decadeslong inequalities,” said Newsom. “Income disparities have come to the fore, and our budget addresses those disparities.” He noted that — even amid the pandemic — the state’s wealthy residents and blue-chip companies have thrived, bringing in unexpected revenue to the state’s coffers. “Folks at the top are doing pretty damn well. But I don’t begrudge that success, I admire and respect it,” he said, adding that the budget reflects the need to re-calibrate the additional revenue into support for residents of the state hardest hit by the pandemic. Addressing the COVID-19 pandemic, the governor has proposed $372 million for vaccine distribution. Newsom noted that California currently has 2.5 million doses of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, and will have delivered more than 1 million shots by Jan. 15. The state will roll out in-language PSAs Jan. 10 to inform diverse audiences about the benefits of getting vaccinated and how to do so. Another $473 million has been set aside for contact tracing and testing.

$575 million has been proposed to help small businesses recover via grants of $5,000 to $25,000: small business owners can learn more about the program and apply online at covid19.ca.gov. Applications are due by Jan. 13. Earlier in the week, the Governor rolled out the “Golden State Stimulus” proposal, a $5 billion plan to distribute $600 cash payments to 4 million low-income residents of the state using the architecture of the California Earned Income Tax Credit program. State lawmakers have already called for direct payments to be expanded, stating that $600 is too small a sum to support those who have lost their incomes amid the pandemic. The state also plans to distribute $2.6 billion to renters to help with past-due rent, but Newsom said the state had not yet established a framework for how the funds would be distributed. Newsom said one of his top priorities was safely opening schools as soon as possible, and has earmarked $90 billion for K-14 education, the highest amount in state history. $2 billion of that amount is for immediate action in returning students to in-person education. An additional $4.6 billion is budgeted to expand summer school, and before and afterschool programs, reflecting the reality of the state’s parents who are now working longer hours to sustain their households. Newsom said a greater level of funding has been set aside for low-income students, English learners, and foster youth.

“We have our eye on equality. Kids are falling through the cracks,” he said. $400 million has been earmarked for Early Childhood Education, and $1.5 billion has been set aside for special education. Newsom noted that he was a special education student. Another $786 million has been budgeted for UCs and CSUs: the former will receive $425 million, while the latter will receive $361 million. Of that amount, $100 million has been set aside to meet students’ basic needs such as food and housing, and another $30 million is dedicated to on-campus mental health programs. $250 million will support an expansion of the state’s college financial aid programs. The governor fervently stated his opposition to tuition increases.

undreds of Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. last Wednesday, Jan. 6 following a speech the President delivered that can be construed as inciting the violence, telling supporters at a rally prior to the breach to “fight like hell” and to “take back our country.” The violence was a failed effort to disrupt the Electoral College vote count during a joint session of Congress and prevent the formalization of President-elect Joe Biden's election victory. It was hours later when the National Guard was allowed entry to the Capitol building to disperse the crowd. Rep. Pete Aguilar, Assembly Majority Leader Eloise Gomez Reyes and Assemblymember James D. Ramos issued statements condemning last week’s attack. Rep. Aguilar: My staff and I are safe after a violent mob stormed the Capitol building (Wednesday). These violent extremists—encouraged by President Trump’s lies about the election—attempted to undermine American Democracy by terrorizing lawmakers, law enforcement and employees working in the Capitol. I swore an oath to protect the Constitution

from enemies both foreign and domestic and I will not be deterred. I will continue to carry out my Constitutional obligation to certify the results of a free and fair election. Majority Leader Reyes: Empty apologies after inciting a mob to breach the walls of our nation’s Capitol, are too little, too late. Five people are dead. Countless are injured. And the sacred center of our nation’s democracy has been left scarred. The events that unfolded in our nation’s Capitol when a proTrump mob stormed through the doors and scaled the walls, was a sad day for our democracy and a direct result of years of misinformation, poisonous ideology and a constant drumbeat of lies regarding our electoral system. The direct assault on our democracy was witnessed by Americans and the whole world in disbelief. But what has defined us and what will continue to define us is our resolve to move forward and work towards a more perfect union. The hallmarks of our democratic system are free and fair elections and the peaceful transition of power regardless of the election outcome. The forces of division and

COMMUNITY COMMENTARY You can email letters to editor@iecn.com. Please include your name and city of residence. Anonymous letters will not be printed. Consequences to attack We c a l l e d f o r B i a n c o ’ s on Capitol must be severe What happened at the U.S. Capitol last Wednesday was an utter desecration of this country’s democratic processes and democracy by thousands of Trump supporters who breached the hallowed building that had only been attacked once in history, in 1814. Acts such as this cannot be allowed to stand. The attempted coup was to prevent elected officials from performing their constitutional duty of counting electoral votes and confirming Joe Biden our next president. Rioters chanted “Stop the Steal” and “Hang Mike Pence,” as they overpowered their way into the National Statuary Hall while elected officials hurried to safety. The violence was a result of months of lies purported by the president and his press secretary that insisted the election was somehow stolen from him as a result of widespread fraud in the election process. He incited the mob with seditious rhetoric mere hours before the riot, calling his supporters to march to the Capitol, “fight like hell,” and to “take back our country.” Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani even went so far as to animatedly propose “Let’s have a trial by combat!” A robust call for violence. Several ring leaders from last week’s act of domestic terrorism have been arrested, and should face the full extent of the law. If not, it will only serve to embolden the already combustible nature of these extremists who are planning multiple attacks at state capitols around

the country prior to Biden’s inauguration. For them, the fact that they were able to breach the Capitol is deemed a success. If consequences are not swift and severe, it will act as a precedent, signalling events such as this assault on democracy is permissible. President Trump must be held accountable for inciting insurrection with his monthslong litany of lies that the election was corrupted. Many Republican elected officials who participated in the rigorous repeating of those lies questioning the legitimacy of the election, and those who continued to support overturning the electoral votes in the hours following the horrific breach should also be held accountable. They all participated in a conspiracy to undermine public confidence in the democratic process, to question Joe Biden’s victory in an effort to keep a despot in office. Is this the new Republican Party? A party that will endeavor to suppress voting and question the legitimacy of votes should it not be in their favor? This goes against all that is democratic. All that is American. Is this the beginning or the end of a divided America? Consequences must be swift and severe that sends a message that insurrection, misinformation and an unchecked president will not be tolerated in this country. By IECN Editorial Board

resignation, here’s why:

On December 19, 2020, at 12:27 PM, we called for Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco's resignation following the murder of Ernie "Teddy" Serrano at the hands of his deputies at a Stater Brothers in Jurupa Valley, CA. After trotting around the national circuit, visiting right-wing news networks, and using his influence to advocate for the continued neglect of Riverside County public health orders, Bianco responded to us with, "I waited to respond until I knew all the facts. Acute Methamphetamine intoxication resulting in a heart attack is not even close to murder. You should be ashamed of yourselves for a community action organization to misrepresent such a tragedy. I'll wait for the retraction". However, the elected Sheriff's actions to insulate their department from being held accountable to the community in the aftermath of the outrage following the murder of Ernie Serrano makes our demand more urgent than ever. We reaffirm our request for Sheriff Bianco's resignation. His dereliction of duty and ongoing gross negligence of leadership has led to ongoing deaths and use of force lawsuits costing Riverside County taxpayers $9.7 million in 2018. In fact, the city of Jurupa Valley would be better served by ending its contract with the Riverside County Sheriff's department and developing a locally controlled agency. An agency that protects residents while reflecting the community's diversity. The city of Jurupa Valley, which already struggles to breathe clean air, should invest their tax dollars for adequate public safety, not choked and asphyxiated by Bianco's deputies. For months, community activists have repeatedly told the County of Riverside Board of Supervisors to consider how systemic racism leads to disproportionate impacts on Black Indigenous People of Color (BIPOC) communities.

Still, it fell on deaf ears at board meetings and the community listening sessions, where these concerns were swept under the rug to be forgotten. We remember vividly, Chairman V. Manuel Perez, District 5, made a motion on May 25 for the county sheriff's department to review its policies and report back to the board. It failed to get a second, and today, another family is in mourning due to this negligence. The same Sheriff refusing to hold a review of his department's policy for accountability is claiming no wrong-doing before the end of an investigation on a death at the hands of his deputies. Plainly, the systems that roll back water quality regulations for corporate interests, place warehouses in our communities, and dirty trucks next to our schools to pollute our children's lungs - are the same systems that have allowed COVID-19 to kill BIPOC communities at a higher rate. As it stands, the Inland Empire is one of the hottest zones of the pandemic in California. From the top 50 districts with the highest rates of COVID-19 cases, "about half of them were in the Inland Empire, including Riverside," showing the lethal consequences of Sheriff Bianco's failure to enforce any guidelines. It is this very system that takes the lives of Black and Brown people in broad daylight —whether it's a carotid choke that killed George Floyd or a blue glove pressing against Serrano's neck— it is this same system that tells our communities it has no regard for our lungs or our lives. In the Inland Empire, breathing is a luxury considering the impacts of COVID-19 are exacerbated when combined with exposure to particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5). Sheriff Bianco ignores the science and tells us not to listen to the advice of experts. He is now telling us that Ernie died due to his lungs' size leading to a heart attack, but

he did not mention the moments of the body-worn camera that shows Ernie's chest being pressed aggressively against the cashier stand. Bianco purposely omits the deputies' inaction as Ernie begs, through pain and fear, to be let go as they continue to smash his lungs onto the counter with little regard for his comfort. Racism is not only centered on acts of aggression or direct violence, but it is codified in policy and the systems that manifest slow and silent harm to marginalized communities. The same communities grieving Ernie Serrano do not get breaks; instead, their suffrage is commodified and underlined with industry's egregiousness. As deputies' batons are beating them, they're also being robbed by greedy corporations. When someone shows you who they are, believe them. Sheriff Bianco has shown himself to care more for political theatrics than the lives of the same communities he is elected to serve. Like anyone else, a sheriff has to be held accountable for the criminal neglect of black and brown lives that constitutes the dismal state of affairs here in the Inland Region. The systemic racism that insulates the few's actions from the demands of the many must end. As residents of the Inland Empire, we demand the resignation of Sheriff Bianco. Kneeling with protestors during Black Lives Matter protests in downtown Riverside was a good photo opportunity, but justifying the brutal beating of Ernie Serrano is, in Sheriff Bianco's own words, typical "do as I say, not as I do" behavior. We need to eradicate racism in the environment and the justice system.

Inlandia and Riverside Art Museum present Around the World First Sundays

nlandia Institute and the Riverside Art Museum are pleased to announce a delightful new First Sundays storytelling and puppetry series from Around the World with Karen & Nicole. Our “Wintering into Spring” schedule began January 3 and continues through May 2. Master puppeteer Nicole Cloeren joins beloved storyteller Karen Rae Kraut for a powerful mix of interactive storytelling and puppetry. Karen’s stories and Nicole’s puppets will open your eyes to new ways of interpreting the world – and open your hearts to a powerful form of play. Our Sunday, January 3, event, “Look Back and See,” is now available for viewing on the Inlandia Institute YouTube channel: https://tinyurl.com/InlandiaYouTube. In this folktale from Tanzania, Karen and Nicole invite the audience into a village that has always been in darkness – and really needs some light! Messengers are sent to buy some dawn, but the results are disappointing until help arrives in an unexpected way. Our upcoming Sunday, February 2, offering is a tale from Japan called “Hats for the Jizos.” In this heartwarming traditional kamishibai (paper theatre) story, an old man has an act of generosity mysteriously and richly rewarded. Kamishibai is a form of

street theater that was beloved in Japan during the Great Depression of the 1930s and after World War II. Its popularity faded as television took its place. RSVP: tinyurl.com/aroundtheworldstory5 Sunday, March 7, brings “Heart Full of Turquoise” from the Pueblo People of the American Southwest. In this story, a medicine woman must protect her people from starvation when a giant tries to rob them of all the food they have carefully harvested for the winter. RSVP: tinyurl.com/aroundtheworldstory6 Join us on Sunday, April 4, for another tale from Japan, “Tasty Baby Belly Buttons.” Discover how the Watermelon Princess, a little girl born from a watermelon, along with her animal companions, helps babies keep their belly buttons when the dreaded Oni try to steal them. RSVP: tinyurl.com/aroundtheworldstory7

And finally, on Sunday, May 2, our Wintering into Spring lineup concludes with “The Fifth Sun” an Aztec creation story from Mexico. For four consecutive tries, the Aztec gods have failed to put the sun and moon up in the sky. Will they succeed with the fifth sun? RSVP: tinyurl.com/aroundtheworldstory8 Karen Rae Kraut has been blending story, song and creative movement in schools, libraries, museums, and theaters from California to East Tennessee since 1990. She has toured for the Smithsonian, and was commissioned by the McCallum Theatre to create a storyteller’s version of Mozart’s The Magic Flute. Karen’s CD, Cooler Water Cora and Other Stories, is the winner of an iParenting Media Award for Audio Excellence and a National Parenting Publications Honors

Award. She has performed for Riverside’s First Sundays program since its inception in 1997. Nicole Cloeren is the founder of Puppets a la Carte, where she uses puppets and techniques of improvisation to create a space of surprise

and wonder in which we can all learn from one another. She is a resident artist at Riverside Studios, has performed with puppets at numerous indoor, outdoor, and online events around Southern California, and loves partnering with other artists.
