The Biden administration says hundreds of migrant children still separated from their parents under Trump will be allowed to reunite with their families in the U.S. — and the families may have the opportunity to stay. Plus, California Gov. Gavin Newsom and state legislative leaders have announced a plan to get students back in classrooms in the nation's most populous state. Also, California is spending more than $200 million to stabilize habitat along the banks of the Salton Sea and to keep an unfolding ecological crisis from getting worse. In addition, climate activists want San Diego to follow the lead of other cities and ban the use of natural gas in new construction. And, pandemic restrictions have cut off prison visits from loved ones so letters from home provide a lifeline to inmates. Finally, “Spittin Truth to Power While Light Leaping for the People” was released during Black History Month but its message is timeless.
