First Hour - Incarceration, Transgender, and Gender Variants

In our first hour... Imagine being one of several dozen women incarcerated with thousands of men.

Harassment, humiliation, and in many cases, rape, are all a part of the daily routine. So is being called "sir." Outside of prison, transgender folks often face a hurtful lack of understanding; inside prison, that lack of understanding can be life-threatening...

Attorney Alex Lee of the Transgender, Gender Variant & Intersex Justice Project joins us, and others, to be confirmed.

 

 

Second Hour - Earthquake Preparedness

In our second hour... Its been 100 years since the 1906 Earthquake. And 1989 -- when the last big one hit the Bay Area -- isn't recent history, either. Time to dust off your earthquake-preparedness savvy...

Our guests Ana-Marie Jones of Collaborating Agencies Responding to Disasters, Kiska Icard of the San Francisco SPCA, and others will remind you how to get yourself, your home, and your family -- including its non-human members -- ready for a rumbler.
