When Amy Anderson and her son walked into George Washington High School years ago they felt a gut-wrenching reaction, coming face to face with a larger than life mural depicting images of slavery and dead Native Americans.Tuesday evening, after decades of debate and outcry, the San Francisco Unified School District unanimously voted to cover up this 1936-era fresco, "Life of Washington."A fight started in the 1960sThe mural was commissioned by the US Government in 1936 under a New Deal art program and painted by well-known muralist Victor Arnautoff.During the Civil Rights Movement in the late 1960's, members of school's Black Student Union called for the removal of the mural.Instead of removing the mural then, the District hired black artist Dewey Crumpler to paint a "response mural," showing Native Americans and African Americans in a more positive light.Three years ago, the call for removal was reignited when Anderson's son Kai decided to enroll at Washington High.A Native American student at Washington HighAnderson and her son are Native American. Kai told his mom he would walk into school with his head down everyday so he would not have to see the murals on the wall."They (Native students) actually see themselves and their ancestors up there on those walls and they feel pain," said Anderson.In late fall of 2018, Anderson and fellow indigenous activist Mariposa Villaluna drafted a resolution to send to Mark Sanchez, a school board commissioner. The move resulted in the creation of the district's Reflection and Action Committee to decide what to do about the "Life of Washington" mural.In February, the committee recommended to the school board that the mural should be covered in white paint before the start of the 2019 school year.At odds with school valuesThe committee argued that the mural did not live up to the district's student-centered focus and did not represent its values of social justice, diversity, and unity. It added that the mural glorified slavery, genocide, and oppression.At Tuesday evening's school board meeting, those in favor of keeping the mural argued the that artist intended to provoke thoughtful discussions about oppression and that the mural could be used as a teaching tool for future generations.Villaluna said the school can find ways to teach these issues without students having to pass by the mural each morning."The students thought this would be good as a lesson but not something we walk by every day," said Villaluna.According to the 2517

When stage 4 cancer stood in the way of farmer Larry Yockey reaping his wheat harvest for the first time in 50 years, dozens of his fellow farmers stepped up to save his crop.Yockey is a 64-year-old fourth-generation farmer, working the same land in Ritzville, Washington, as his father and grandfather. He said his wheat crop accounts for nearly 100% of his income, and harvesting is usually a job that he does by himself.In February, doctors diagnosed Yockey with melanoma, which has spread to his bones. That contributed to a broken hip and broken ribs, reducing the amount of time he can spend working in his fields and how much he can lift. For the first time in decades, Yockey feared that he would not be able to handle the harvest.After he shared his concern with neighbors, they told him not to worry about it, and he assumed they were organizing some help. But last weekend, dozens of vehicles pulled up to his farm, along with farmers ready run the machines and work the fields.Working together, they completed three weeks' worth of harvesting in about eight hours.Without the help, Yockey says, "it would have been a mess," leaving his crop vulnerable to wind and rain damage.Miles Pfaff, one of the farmers who pitched in, said that "harvest bees" like this are rare and that it is not the sort of help a farmer would ask for or hope to need.Pfaff also said the help went beyond fellow farmers. The local fire department and mechanics volunteered their time, while folks who weren't working the fields brought food and drinks.The scale of the operation reminded Yockey of the way he sees other communities come together after natural disasters. The people who helped with his harvest say they do not want to be thanked, but " 'thank you' really doesn't even do justice here," he said. 1809

Vacations, savings, retirement funds — they all take a back seat for those who have to pay high prices for prescription drugs.“When I was diagnosed in 1972, insulin cost about a dollar a bottle,” Gail DeVore said. She was diagnosed as a Type 1 diabetic in her childhood and has lived with diabetes for almost 48 years.The price tag for a bottle of insulin now can reach up to 0 in the United States.Insulin helps diabetics manage their blood sugar. DeVore’s childhood doctor told her she wouldn’t live past 40. She recently turned 59 years old.Diabetics often have to buy multiple bottles of insulin at a time. For someone with a high deductible prescription plan, that money comes right out of their pocket.“To afford that, which happens to be more than my own mortgage, it’s unreachable for some families,” DeVore explained.The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates around 30 million people in America have diabetes, which is almost 10 percent of the population. The national price of insulin increased from 4 in 2012 to 6 in 2016, according to the Health Cost Institute.“It’s the most expensive part of our lives,” Michelle Fenner said. Her 17-year-old son was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes nine years ago.“It impacts us on vacations we can take, our ability to save for retirement,” she said. “We’ve had to pull from savings.”Insulin isn’t the only medication with a rising price tag. Fenner was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease just a year ago. Her medication can cost her more than ,000 a month. Prices can fluctuate based on the insurance’s drug coverage.“As I’m trying to keep my son alive and pay for all of his costs, am I going to be able to afford my medication?” she said.“Overall, drug prices have continued to increase,” said Gina Moore, the president of the Colorado Pharmacists Society. “We’re all touched personally by the cost of medications. My husband, as an example, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease a couple months ago.”Individual spending on prescription medication increased from 0.7 billion in 2012 to 1 billion in 2016, according to Pew Charitable Trusts.“It’s not necessarily a new problem but it’s one that’s been magnified over the last decade,” Moore explained.Income for pharmacies from retail prescription drugs went up from nearly .8 billion in 2012 to .9 billion in 2016, according to Pew Trusts.“Don’t hesitate to ask your pharmacist if they know of less expensive alternatives,” Moore said.But for diabetics, there are no alternative drugs for insulin.“It’s this simple, tiny little hormone that every body should make,” DeVore said. “And without it, we die.”“How can you plan your life when you literally have no idea how much something is going to cost?” Fenner said. 2772

WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House is readying an urgent budget request to address the deadly coronavirus outbreak, whose rapid spread is spooking financial markets and restricting international travel. That's according to a senior administration official who confirmed Monday that the emergency request is still being developed and is likely to come this week. The Department of Health and Human Services has already tapped into an emergency infectious disease rapid response fund and is transferring more than 0 million from other HHS accounts to combat the virus. 581
