Learnin' & Teachin': The Future of Education Originally broadcast March 7, 2007 In decaying and resource-starved public schools, teachers and staffers with incredible vision and energy are trying to make education work. But what do we want from education now? Should it be organized around children spending mandatory time in classrooms or should we take a hint from the burgeoning homeschooling movement and look toward other models? LetÕs challenge our assumptions in this open-ended discussion. With Lisa Schiff (Parents for Public Schools), Will Grant (BLAST), Karen Allen (home schooling advocate), Ken Tray (Lowell High School teacher and Teacher's Union shop steward). The Green City Originally recorded February 28, 2007 Integrating urban life with local nature, biodiversity, and resources is the challenge of our time. New and veteran activists share visions, strategies, and how they are laying the foundation for a truly Green City. With Peter Berg (Green City Project/Planet Drum Foundation), Peter Brastow (Nature in the City), Bonnie Sherk (A Living Library), and Brian Holland (Bay Localize). San Francisco Land Grabs Originally recorded February 14, 2007 San FranciscoÕs entire history is based on land grabs, within its own borders and far beyond. Sketching this history to the present, we will also look at counter-efforts to grab land and to create open and cooperative spaces in an ever more commercially tyrannized society. With Chris Carlsson, Erick Lyle (squatter theorist and practitioner), James Tracy (Community Land Trusts). The Health Epidemic: Therapy Society & Eroding Public Health Originally recorded January 17, 2007 In the relatively wealthy Bay Area, state-of-the-art hi-tech medicine is inacessible to a growing proportion of the population. What should be the response of medical professionals, alternative practitioners and community organizers? What role, if any, do we want the state and business to have in health care provision? With Adrienne Pine (California Nurses Association), Bill Mosca (California Oriental Medical Association), Jason Blantz (public health worker). Can San Francisco Feed Itself? Originally recorded January, 2007 Can urban food production be compatible with urban native habitat conservation and restoration? What are the limits and advantages of systematic effort to grow food within the city? What should our relationship be to local gardening, regional Community-Supported Agriculture, and Slow Food? With Chris Carlsson, Raquel Rivera-Pinderhughes (SFSU), Lane Cunningham (foraging expert), Margit Roos-Collins (author), Antonio Alcala (Alemany Urban Farm), Brahm Ahmadi (People's Grocery). Reclaiming Bay Area Military Bases Originally recorded April 26, 2006 On cleaning up after the military, restoring the former military bases around the San Francisco Bay.

What's Natural About Natural Disasters? Originally recorded March 29, 2006. Earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, epidemic flu, chronic disease, etc. What are the elements of a community response based on mutual aid, cooperation, and a renewed commitment to a public health infrastructure? With Shaping SF host Chris Carlsson, Tom Athanasiou of Eco-Equity, Sherlina Nager of Literacy for Environmental Justice, Peter Davidson, plus audience Q&A.
America in the Philippines February 8, 2006 From the barely remembered American-Philippine War of 1899-1904 that killed a half million Filipinos, to the Central Valley-driven immigration of Filipino men in the 1910s and 1920s, and from the rise to the ultimate demise of Manilatown, San Francisco has been a vital crossroads for Filipinos, and Filipinos in turn have left important marks in the city. Join the authors of The Forbidden Book and other Filipino-American scholars and activists. Speakers: Chris Carlsson, Abraham Ignacio, Oscar Peneranda, MC Canlas, Terecita Bautista
