Poder and SF Youth Making it Happen by <a href="La Eneida

It is 7 a.m, 58° and headed to a San Francisco summer 67°. Details for the next ten days are here, but the short answer is it is all about the 67ish weather for the next week.

The Tamale Lady’s  plans to open her brick and mortar restaurant on 16th Street has run into a glitch—Virginia Ramos also owns a four-plex on 24th Street and MEDA says she has become a prime example of the predatory lending that still goes on. 

We’ve reported on Kink.com’s plans to move to Nevada and now the SF Weekly adds to that. It seems that its troubles have followed it across state lines: the AIDS Healthcare Foundation has filed an OSHA complaint in Nevada.

I’ve been a Mission resident since 1998 and a professor emeritus at Berkeley’s J-school since 2019. I got my start in newspapers at the Albuquerque Tribune in the city where I was born and raised. Like many local news outlets, The Tribune no longer exists. I left daily newspapers after working at The New York Times for the business, foreign and city desks. Lucky for all of us, it is still here.

As an old friend once pointed out, local has long been in my bones. My Master’s Project at Columbia, later published in New York Magazine, was on New York City’s experiment in community boards.

As founder/executive editor at ML, I've been trying to figure out how to make my interest in local news sustainable. If Mission Local is a model, the answer might be that you - the readers - reward steady and smart content. As a thank you for that support we work every day to make our content even better.
