ADJOURNMENT The meeting adjourned at 8:20 p.m. 1     Packet Pg. 5     Human Relations Commission August 2023 Lorem ipsum ets dolor sitette sit Pellentesque porta ornare Palo Alto Asian American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Lived Experiences Survey 1 2     Packet Pg. 6     Introduction Survey Goals This survey was conducted by the Human Relations Commission after a request from the Palo Alto City Council members (May 2022) to more fully understand the lived experiences of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander residents. Timing This survey was conducted between May and July 2023. Method The survey was shared using word-of-mouth, social media posts, flyers, City enews and community cultural groups/events. There were 100 responses to the survey. Next Step The HRC recommends using the recent city survey, which collected data by race from a larger population of residents, to better understand how the needs of AANHPI Palo Alto residents differ from other residents. Context 2 2     Packet Pg. 7     In 2021, 35.1% of Palo Alto was Asian; the large majority of Asian residents are Chinese (20.7% of all residents). 2021 American Communities Survey Data Context 3 2     Packet Pg. 8     The Asian population has been steadily growing in Palo Alto, from 19,541 (29.6%) in 2014 to 24,117 (35.1%) in 2021. 2014-2021 American Communities Survey Data 29.6% 35.1% Context 4 2     Packet Pg. 9     What should we know about your experience as an AANHPI individual in Palo Alto? Appreciation and gratitude for living in Palo Alto. Need for greater visibility and civic representation of AANHPI cultures. Experiences of racism and discrimination, recent and past. Need for a greater recognition of diversity within AANHPI cultures. Cultural tensions within PAUSD. There were five recurring themes within responses: Findings 5 2     Packet Pg. 10     I feel comfortable in the community. I feel safe and comfortable living and walking in Palo Alto, I didn't realize the proportion of Asians was so high. Its gone up since we moved here in 1986. It’s great Love the diversity Overall it is great Enjoy being part of the community Great place to live and see family thrive!! I have enjoyed living in Palo Alto and have been treated well. I feel satisfied so far. Palo Alto is a great place to live and raise children. We plan to continue to live here after our retirement.” The most common theme expressed by AANHPI residents was a general sense of gratitude for living in Palo Alto. 27 out of 81 comments 1.Appreciation and gratitude for living in Palo Alto. “ Findings 6 2     Packet Pg. 11     We need more local leaders to represent our community! Equality! It would be nice to see representation in different places of city government and school admissions. We do not have enough representation in the government. Sometimes feel like we don’t see enough cultural events or representation in media at Paly. Would like to hear more about supportive resources for Asian Americans/Pacific Islanders. 35% of our city events are not Asian themed/focused. We would love to help our kids experience our parents culture but that is hard when most events are Turkey Trots and Chili Cookoffs. Provide more Chinese newspaper/magazines/videos at Rinconada library or online. Palo Alto is not very diverse. Suggest adding more cultural programs, more communication to decrease AAPHI hate problem. I think the community can provide more Chinese signs for Senior Chinese person, such as bus station, public parks, etc.”17 out of 81 comments 2.Need for greater visibility and civic representation of AANHPI cultures. The second most common theme was a need for greater visibility and appreciation for AANHPI residents and their culture, including: ●Greater representation in government (4 comments) ●More community resources, especially in the libraries (e.g. books in Chinese) (4 comments) ●More cultural representation in community events (2 comments) ●Greater representation within school staff/ teachers/libraries. (2 comments) “ Findings 7 2     Packet Pg. 12     “ ”14 out of 81 comments 3.Experiences of racism and discrimination, recent and past. Respondents mentioned the general existence of racist attitudes (10 comments), specific recent incidents (5 comments) and some past incidents (3). There is still some racial discrimination against (immigrant) Chinese people. Racism against Asians is still a reality in Palo Alto. Enjoy the cultural diversity and open-mindedness of most people but there are always some who don’t appreciate it and those who aren’t open to sharing. There is a columnist for the Palo Alto Online News that has written things that are very hurtful to African Americans, Asians, and other people of color. It feels like the Southeast Asian community and Islander community are largely viewed as "the help". I don't think there is any inherent racial bias, but the economic entry point to the city pretty much guarantee that Palo Altans are only learning about their wealthy neighbors instead of other Asian cultures. My experience has not resulted in any ethnic prejudices, but I was upset when I heard about the Asian mailman that was verbally accosted a few years ago on Ross Road. I have seen a lot of changes in my 68 years. When I was going to Walter Hays, my brother and I were the only Asians at the school. I remember while climbing on a jungle gym at Eleanore Park a boy pulled the corners of his eyes and made noises mimicking the Chinese language. I was probably 10 or so. But that's the only negative experience that I remember while growing up in PA. Findings 8 2     Packet Pg. 13     “ ”8 out of 81 comments 4.Need for a greater recognition of diversity within AANHPI cultures. Some residents mentioned the need for a greater appreciation of the diversity within AANHPI cultures. Firstly, the term AANHPI is offensive. It attempts to reduce the rich diversity of all the communities defined by the term as if they were a homogenous group. Any attempt to understand this as a group will fail as they comprise very different cultures, world-views, and political leanings. Asian is not a monolithic homogeneous group. There are wild differences in culture, values, beliefs and norms. It’s frustrating to be lumped into one category. AANHPI community is very diverse, however it is stereotyped to be a homogenous group. Within AANHPI not only there are cultural differences, but there are inequities experienced between the populations based on the group they represent, class, education, immigration status, generation (how many years lived in US), and darkness of skin. There should be more voices in the world for mixed people. Findings 9 2     Packet Pg. 14     “ ”6 out of 81 comments 5.Cultural tensions within PAUSD. Respondents noted that there are cultural tensions with in PAUSD and different cultural standards for public education, particularly around parenting styles (2 comments) and STEM education (2 comments). As a white passing person, I often hear people speaking negatively about Asian parents and kids as if they don’t ‘belong’ or somehow ruin their children’s educational experience. The concept of ‘forever foreigner’ is alive and well in Palo Alto. Schools in PA feel less welcoming to Asians with the current district leadership. They want to take away opportunities for students to excel in STEM subjects and it feels like Asian students are targeted by their new policies. I feel that the PAUSD school district demonizes Asian Americans as two-dimensional and as creating academic pressure not only on their own children, but the children of the entire community. There is an assumption by the school district leadership that if an Asian student is feeling any stress or depression (not necessarily associated with academics), it must be caused by academic pressure from their Asian Tiger parents. We have experienced a very hostile school board that did not take us as parents' feedback when making decisions. There is an anti-STEM vibe flowing through the PAUSD administration that disproportionately affects Asian kids. The current kerfuffle over multi variable calculus and linear algebra is an example. These are courses primarily taken by Asian kids and the administration decided to initially drop them, and after a big fight has allowed them back in a less than ideal manner. Findings 10 2     Packet Pg. 15     Five key ways to build a more inclusive community for Asian residents Greater representation in city government boards, commissions, and staff Additional Asian-centered cultural events More non-multilingual or multi-cultural library and other resources; or greater awareness of existing resources Multilingual wayfaring signage Use of PA Community survey to understand the priorities of Asian residents compared to other demographics (Commission recommendation, not based on survey results) Recommendations 11 2     Packet Pg. 16     Additional findings 12 2     Packet Pg. 17     Family, neighbors, and school-groups were the most common places to find community. Where do you find community? You may choose more than one . 13 2     Packet Pg. 18     Respondent characteristics 14 2     Packet Pg. 19     There were a wide -range of ways that respondents identified.

Andrew Binder has no intention of creating a culture shift in the leadership of the PAPD or in the rank and file of the PAPD . Andrew Binder thumbed his nose at the recent RIPA data thatshows the PAPD continues to engage in racially discriminatory policing. Andrew Binder’s leadership or lack there of creates a clear and present danger to all people of color and other marginalized members of our community. As I said at Saturday’s retreat both Andrew Binder and his boss Ed Shikada should be fired. Mark my word these two individuals will cost our city millions in law suits given their support of an old school racist model of policing. If yourefuse to look at the truth, look the other way, avert your eyes, you will be held complicit for their criminal acts carried out in our names.

The punishment was severe — and eventually fatal. By Robin Stein, Alexander Cardia and Natalie ReneauJan. 29, 2023 Updated 6:44 p.m. ET 5 MIN READ Police officers unleashed a barrage of commands that were confusing, conflicting and sometimes even impossible to obey, a Times analysis of footage from Tyre Nichols’s fatal traffic stop found. When Mr. Nichols could not comply — and evenwhen he managed to — the officers responded with escalating force. The review of the available footage found that officers shouted at least 71 commands during the approximately 13-minute period before they reported over the radio thatMr. Nichols was officially in custody. The orders were issued at two locations, one near Mr. Nichols’s vehicle and the other in the area he had fled to and where he would be severely beaten. The orders were often simultaneous and contradictory. Officers commanded Mr. Nichols to show his hands even as they were holding his hands. They told him to get on the ground even when he was on the ground. Andthey ordered him to reposition himself even when they had control of his body. Experts say the actions of the Memphis police officers were an egregious example of a longstanding problem in policing in which officers physically punish civilians forperceived disrespect or disobedience — sometimes called “contempt of cop.” The practice was notoriously prevalent decades ago. “It was far more rampant in the ’80s, when I started doing police work, than it was inthe ’90s or 2000s,” said Geoffrey Alpert, a professor of criminology and criminal justice at the University of South Carolina. “Even before body cams, cops were getting more professional and wouldn’t make it personal, like it seemed to be in thiscase. This is just — it’s so far out of the norm.” To mitigate the potential for escalation and confusion during police encounters, today’s police training typically calls for a single officer at the scene to issue clear and specific commands. It also requires police officers to respond professionally and proportionately to any perceived act of defiance.But The Times’s review shows that the officers did the exact opposite, over and over. The available footage does not show any sign that the officers present intervened to stop the aggressive use of force. If anything, it shows the contrary.At one point, footage captured an officer saying “I hope they stomp his ass” after Mr. Nichols’s attempt to flee the scene. A street camera captured Memphis police officersfatally beating Tyre Nichols.Desiree Rios/The New York Times More on the Death of Tyre Nichols A Complex Conversation: The five Memphis officers charged with themurder of Tyre Nichols, a young Black man, are also Black, complicating theanguish and the efforts at police reform. Reactions: The release of video footage of the fatal encounter drew horror and disgust from law enforcement officials, lawmakers and Black Lives Matteractivists. A National Shift: The response from Memphis officials to Mr. Nichols’sdeath reflected how cities across the country are moving faster and speakingcritically when officers are accused of beatings. The Responsibility of Watching: The video of Memphis police beating Mr. Nichols challenges public complacency — and complicity, A.O. Scott writes.What are our duties as citizens and as human beings? When asked for comment on the officers’ conduct at the traffic stop, a spokesperson from the Memphis Police Department said: “All information that is available at thispoint has been released. However, know that this investigation remains ongoing.” The Memphis Police Association also said it could not comment because of the ongoing investigation.The Times’s analysis is based on footage from police body cams and street cameras released by the City of Memphis and synchronized by The Times. Here are four key moments in which officers punished Mr. Nichols for not complying with flawed commands. These videos contain scenes of graphic violence. Confusing Orders The footage begins with a police officer driving up to the intersection where Mr. Nichols’s car had been boxed in by two unmarked police vehicles. The officer jumps out with his firearm drawn and joins a pair of officers rushingtoward the front seat. One officer pulls Mr. Nichols out of his car, and all three officers immediately start screaming “On the ground!” These are the first orders in the bombardment of confusing commands that confound Mr. Nichols and prompt a cascade of retribution. How The Times uses visuals to investigate the news. Our Visual Investigations team is made up of more than a dozen journalists who combine digital sleuthing and forensic analysis with traditional reporting to deconstruct news events. They have uncovered important details about drone strikes, police shootings and the Capitol riot. Learn more about how the team works. Mr. Nichols points out that he is sitting on the ground, as the officers instructed him to do. But multiple officers shout the same command over and over with intensifyingfrustration and physical threats. “Get on the ground!” one orders. “I’m gonna tase your ass.” It eventually becomes evident that the officers would like Mr. Nichols not only on theground but also lying down. When Mr. Nichols repositions himself, it appears to further antagonize the officers. He tries to convey that he poses no threat. “You guys are really doing a lot right now,” he says. “I’m just trying to go home.” With officers pinning down his arms, pressing a taser against his leg and barkingintensifying verbal threats, Mr. Nichols explodes: “I am on the ground!” Finally, one of the officers yells more specific instructions: “On your stomach.” Three seconds later, one of the officers shoots pepper spray into Mr. Nichols’s face. This video includes scenes of graphic violence. Jan. 29, 2023 Contradictory Commands After fleeing on foot, Mr. Nichols is seen lying on the ground a few hundred yards away from his car, flanked by officers demanding that he give them his hands. But one of them is gripping his left arm, and the other is holding his right. It’s not clearhow the officers expect Mr. Nichols to move. Then a third officer runs up with a can of pepper spray. “You’re about to get sprayed good,” he says. The others start punching Mr. Nichols’sface. Mr. Nichols responds by pulling his hands back to protect himself. The punching intensifies, and the pepper spray is fired.Wiping the pepper spray from his eyes, Mr. Nichols tries assuring them that he is going to comply. “OK,” he says. “All right. All right.”But just as one of the officers gets hold of him, a new officer arrives and also demands that Mr. Nichols give him his hands. Again, Mr. Nichols is unable to follow the conflicting directions. He flails about, which only multiplies the police officers’ commands and the physical punishment they inflict. He is doused with pepper spray for a third time. This video includes scenes of graphic violence. Jan. 29, 2023 Orders Not Resisted Two officers stand above Mr. Nichols, who is lying on his side and rubbing his eyesafter being pepper-sprayed three times. An officer kicks Mr. Nichols in the face. Mr. Nichols appears to be barely conscious or coherent, but officers treat him as if he is resisting orders.“Lay flat, goddamn it,” one officer commands. Mr. Nichols moans and writhes on the ground. By this point, he has been tased, kicked in the head twice and punched and pepper-sprayed repeatedly. “Lay flat,” another officer shouts. Mr. Nichols is lying limp as an officer, without any apparent difficulty, snaps a pairof handcuffs to one of his wrists. This video includes scenes of graphic violence. Jan. 29, 2023 Impossible Orders Officers continue to issue commands while simultaneously constraining, controlling and beating Mr. Nichols in ways that render it physically impossible for him to follow those commands. One officer uses Mr. Nichols’s handcuffed arm to pull his body from the ground and into a kneeling position. Then another officer strikes him with a baton three times,yelling “Give us your hands!” Surrounded by four officers, he tries to move away from the baton. “Give me your fucking hands!” one officer shouts.But Mr. Nichols — with one officer pinning his arms behind his back, another gripping his handcuffed wrist and a third punching his face — cannot comply. This video includes scenes of graphic violence. Jan. 29, 2023 Mr. Nichols doubles over and calls out for his mother. The blows continue.Five officers have been fired and charged with second-degree murder. Lawyers for two of them said in a news conference last week that their clients intended to plead not guilty.

All three deaths involved unarmed people. I know, shame on you, that the PAPD just bought new Tasers back in December 2022. You and I have discussed on numerous occasions that Tasers are not non-lethal -more than 1000 deaths by Tasers in this country well establish this point. Please warn your officers about the high risk of killing an unarmed person when a Taser is deployed. And please send around the below death by torture incident(see link below) by the LAPD that occurred on Jan 3, 2023. The body worn camera footage was released a day or so after this hideous killing of an unarmed man tortured to death by multiple taser blasts while numerous members of the LAPD stood around and watched Keenan Anderson being tortured.

CONTRASTING SENIOR CENTERS-: AVENIDAS, Palo Alto & LITTLE HOUSE, Menlo Park Over the 2022 December holidays Little House had two lovcly free meals for seniors, a 3- course lunch with wine, and a New Years Brunch with champagne, and over 80 attended. Both events featured festive decorations, an engaging program, and an upbeat environment to meet and talk with seniors. What did Avenidas offer seniors? Avenidas had only a 2- hour event for grandkids to decorate cookies. If you drop by Avenidas you will see it is grossly underutilized, even thought tere are four or five empty rooms that could be used for serving La Comida lunches, where seniors could meet, eat and socialize.

Before becoming our amazing Secretary Of State Dr. Weber was responsible for California being the first state in the nation to have a reparations commission. Palo Alto must have their own reparations commission to determine Palo Alto’s responsibility for racist exclusionary housing practices, racially discriminatory policing practices now and historically, racially discriminatory hiring practices by the city of Palo Alto….to mention just a few of the institutional racially discriminatory practices that must be discussed and where appropriate reparations paid to those impacted by Palo Alto’s long standing pattern of government sponsored racially discriminatory practices.

The past two midterm elections have featured the two highest turnout rates in state history. California voter registration is up nearly 25% since {{item.number}}     Packet Pg. 71     2014, and in 2022 we saw 47% of eligible voters cast a ballot compared to 31% in 2014. We expanded the franchise to formerly incarcerated individuals on parole, and we passed legislation to protect poll workers from harassment in response to growing threats of violence. With your help, we’ve won four more years to fight for every Californian's right to vote. I promise to do everything in my power to make it easy and safe to cast a ballot, to run elections fairly and efficiently, and to protect our democratic processes. Thank you for your trust, and the honor of representing you for four more years. Onward, Dr. Weber Paid for by Shirley Weber for Secretary of State 2026.

Before California had a helmet law, I would ride my motorcycle without a helmet or gloves. The fresh air hitting my face on an open road increased the enjoyment of the ride. Unfortunately, I got pulled over regularly. The only ticket I received was for driving after dark and on the freeway, which my permit did not allow. That citation was dismissed because I was pulled over for “looking nervous”. I have not been pulled over since the helmet law was implemented. I didn't expect wearing a helmet and gloves would increase the enjoyment of a bike ride!!!
