  • Directory of California Ethnic Media, Which Lists Almost 300 News Outlets — Print, Broadcast, Digital — Across the State
    NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER Ethnic Media Services, founded in 2018 to sustain and build on the work of New America Media, is pleased to publish our Directory of California Ethnic Media, which lists almost 300 news outlets — print, broadcast, digital — across the state. We are grateful for the support of key partners including California Black Media, ImpreMedia, Hoopa Radio, and the Center for Community & Ethnic Media, in compiling this list. The Directory aims to expand access to the sector at a time when communicating with California’s diverse communities has become more urgent than ever amidst the rollout of the 2020 census, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the economic turmoil it has generated. This Directory is a work-in-progress — in today’s highly fluid media landscape, we will update the online information monthly. Thanks to support from the Complete Count Committee Office 2020 Census and several national funders, we were able to expand our research and discover ethnic media platforms we never knew existed: podcasts, radio stations, weeklies, online news sites serving newly settled immigrants and long-siloed ethnic groups. The takeaway from our daily interactions with the sector is that despite the collapse of the business model that has decimated all media, the ethnic news outlets are determined to survive to inform and advocate for their audiences. Some of those outlets have been in opera- tion for decades while others are much newer. Their resilience is inspiring. Their role in creating an inclusive communications infrastruc- ture for this state is indispensable. We look forward to replicating the California Directory with a national listing of our ethnic media partners later this year.

This report describes municipal regional stormwater permit (MRP) compliance activities conducted at the regional and countywide levels. This report incorporates by reference the Bay Area Stormwater Management Agencies Association’s (BASMAA) Regional Supplements1 to the annual report for monitoring/POCs and training and outreach. The Countywide Program Portion of the Annual Report FY 2010/11 describes MRP implementation tasks undertaken at the countywide level for the benefit of the Countywide Program’s member agencies. In response to Notices of Violation (NOV) issued to various San Mateo jurisdictions for their 2009/10 annual reports, the Countywide Program has taken several proactive steps to improve reporting for the 2010/11 fiscal year. On July 6, C/CAG sent a memo to all City/County/Town Managers alerting them to the recent NOVs and emphasizing the importance of meeting MRP requirements; this issue was discussed in person with City Managers at their July 15 and August 19 association meetings. The Countywide Program hosted a municipal training session specific to annual reporting on July 20 that was very well attended. Countywide Program staff met individually with several jurisdictions’ staffs to assist with NOV responses and review of annual reports.

  • Analýza Motivace Sociálně Vyloučených K Zapojení Se Do Projektu Street-Paper
    Analýza motivace sociálně vyloučených k zapojení se do Projektu street-paper Ivana Pejřová Bakalářská práce 2013 ABSTRAKT Bakalářská práce je zaměřena na motivaci sociálně vyloučených lidí k zapojení se do spo- lečenského života. Problematika sociálně vyloučených lidí je hojně diskutovaným, ale málo řešeným tématem na poli aktuálních otázek soužití lidské společnosti. Práce se opírá o dosavadní poznatky z oblasti projektů street-paper, o problematiku sociálně vyloučeného člověka, motivaci a motivační teorie. Existuje již jisté procento těchto sociálně vylouče- ných, kteří se tyto bariéry rozhodli překonat vstupem do projektu street-paper., konkrétně v České republice prodejem časopisu Nový prostor. Práce vychází z teoretických prací a průzkumů, které se zabývají street-paperovými projekty a sociálně vyloučenými lidmi, a následně jsem se prostřednictvím empirického šetření v praktické části práce pokusila po- tvrdit či vyvrátit mnou stanovené předpoklady. Klíčová slova: Street-paper projekt, časopis, sociálně vyloučený člověk, bezdomovectví, motivace. ABSTRACT The bachelor thesis is focused on the reasons why the socially excluded people want to participate in social life. The issue of socially excluded people is widely discussed, but it is rarely being solved at the field of human society co-existence. The work is based on the existing findings concerning the street-paper projects, on the issue of socially excluded people, and on motivation and motivational theories. There is already a certain percentage of these socially excluded people, who decided to overcome the barriers and decided to enter the street-paper project, for example the people selling the magazine Nový proctor in the Czech Republic. The work is based on theoretical background and on a research deal- ing with street paper projects and socially excluded people.

Through the application of social theory, the inclusion of representative objects from the National Hobo Museum, narratives of hobos, government-sponsored investigations, and the consideration of prior scholarly works, hoboing nonwork is best understood as an anti-modern, reactionary counterculture to the working-class that managed to deflect the drastic changes in class and economy at the turn of the twentieth century until its gradual demise leading up to the present day.
