On Wednesday, March 18, 2020, I got together with my neighbor across the street for Social Distance Hours. We brought some drinks and Bluetooth speaker; she sat at the top of her stairs and me at the bottom and just caught up for some desperately needed human interaction. Photos by Brian D. Jones in Bernal.
A house on 23rd and Bryant streets. Just a simple reminder that there are still folks working out here and we should appreciate them. Photo by Lisa Raskin.

This is a terrible time for everyone, and the Nieman Lab wrote today how the coronavirus could mean “total annihilation” for the alt-weeklies. Keep local journalism around. Support us or another outlet today.
I grew up in the Mission, went to School of the Arts high school for creative writing. Bounced around colleges from SFState, to CCSF, to CCA where I graduated with a degree in photography.
