    Encore: Oakland Comedian Jackie Keliiaa on Pain, Punchlines, and Her ‘Good Medicine’
    Apr 10 2026
    This week, we're revisiting a conversation from September 2025 about resilience with Oakland comedian Jackie Keliiaa. She’s a stand-up, writer, actor, and producer whose work not only reflects on her everyday life, but also her Native heritage. She’s been featured on Comedy Central, Team Coco, Netflix and IllumiNative's list of 25 Native American Comedians to Follow, and she organizes the all-Native comedy show, Good Medicine. Host Sasha Khokha sat down with Keliiaa for a conversation about comedy, identity, and how laughter can help keep us going during hard times. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Indigenous Communities Reclaim Ancestral Lands and Waters

    Indigenous Communities Reclaim Ancestral Lands and Waters
    Apr 3 2026
    This Northern California Tribe is Reclaiming Mendocino Forest For Future Generations The Potter Valley band of the Pomo people is the first tribe in California to use a Forest Service grant to create a community forest near Fort Bragg, in Mendocino County. It will soon be a place where the tribe can offer youth camps and community events all year round. KQED’s Outdoors reporter Sarah Wright attended a mushroom foraging event on this ancestral land, which will now remain a forest for generations to come. New Film Follows Indigenous Teens Kayaking the Klamath River After Dam Removal A new documentary from Oregon Public Broadcasting follows a group of Indigenous teenagers as they kayak more than 300 miles down the Klamath River. They’re the first to paddle the entire length of the Klamath after four dams were taken down in 2024 — the largest dam removal in US history. First Descent: Kayaking the Klamath was filmed over the course of the monthlong paddle last summer, following the teens as they traversed waters that were allowed to flow freely again for the first time in 100 years. Host Vanessa Rancano speaks with the film’s producer, Jessie Sears, and one of the paddlers featured in the film, 16-year-old Tasia Linwood. In the 1970s, Bay Area Lesbians Created Their Own Economy San Francisco’s Castro neighborhood is known all around the world as a gay mecca. But the city was also once home to a thriving, self-sustaining lesbian community in the city’s Mission District. KQED Arts editor Nastia Voynovskaya takes us to a new historical exhibit. It tells the story of the lesbian-owned restaurants, printing presses and bookstores that offered a safe haven in the face of discrimination. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Finding Ways to Manage Affordability; Indie Wrestlers Dream Big in Lodi
    Mar 27 2026
    From Financial Freefall to Stability. How One Man Found a Way to Stay in the Bay The cost of living in California has only increased in the last year. And between housing, food, utilities and gas, many of us have been forced to get creative with our budgets in order to continue living here. Vanessa Rancaño has this profile of a man in the Bay Area whose decision to stay in California –despite his financial hardships– is also a matter of safety. Small Ring, Big Dreams: The Central Valley’s Backyard Wrestling Underdogs If you turn off Highway 99 just north of Stockton, you’ll find the 209 Dragon’s Den. The venue is wedged between a private home, a plant nursery and a barn, offering one of the humbler places to tangle in the independent wrestling scene. Since it launched about a year ago, it’s been drawing wrestlers from around the state. But the 209 Dragon’s Den isn’t just a place to bring the community together– it also helps wrestlers better understand themselves and their sport. Reporter Hannah Weaver takes us ringside. A Black-Owned Ranch in Southern San Diego Fosters Community and Ancestral Connection On a dusty road north of the Tijuana border is S&S Friendly Ranch. Founded in 1980 by siblings Sim Wallace and Sarah Buncom, the ranch started as a place to board their horses. But as KPBS’ Audy McAfee reports, the 10-acre ranch is now a community gathering place and a hub for education and innovation, thanks to their descendants. Learn more about your ad choices.
