'Everyday Courage' event promotes California arts, humanities

A big event Tuesday night in Los Angeles will lift up arts and culture, history and the humanities. The theme is “ Everyday Courage .” The nonprofit California Humanities will present its Spirit of the Humanities Awards. Ann Burroughs, president and CEO of the Japanese American National Museum, will receive the award for Courageous Leadership. She said California's postwar mistreatment of Japanese Americans remains highly relevant today. "It's critically important that we not only know the history but we understand history, because if we don't know what the lessons of history are, then they can so easily be repeated," Burroughs explained. The evening’s featured speaker will be playwright and filmmaker Luis Valdez, founder of El Teatro Campesino, which helped spread the word about strikes and marches by Chicano farmworkers in the 1960s. PBS currently features a documentary on the subject, called "American Pachuco: The Legend of Luis Valdez." Sen.

California's Young Workers Didn't Sit This One Out—We Made Sure of It

Every cycle like clockwork, young voters are written off as too disillusioned or too distracted to show up in a midterm. On Tuesday, that outdated notion was laid to rest. Nationally and across California, young people showed up. And they showed up in numbers that made the difference in power-shifting races for LA Mayor-elect Nithya Raman, California Democratic Rep.-elects Randy Villegas and Marni von Wilpert, and others.

LA, Orange County Gas Prices Continue Falling

The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in Los Angeles County dropped 1 cent Sunday to $5.827, its lowest amount since Sept. 2. The average price has fallen 36 times in the last 38 days.

It has risen $1.133 since the start of the joint U.S./Israel war on Iran on Feb. 28, which sent oil prices higher and drastically accelerated increases at the gas pump.

By the time I walked up to Integrity Recovery Center’s front door, I’d been trying to get a hold of the owners for months. Integrity’s website described the treatment facility as a “healing sanctuary” and showed photographs of a gleaming white mansion with a pool in the Los Angeles foothills. The place looked a little dingier in person, with trash in the driveway and weeds growing over a retaining wall.
