The public now has access to a database of police-misconduct records from nearly 700 California law enforcement agencies. It’s the first resource of its kind in the nation and will allow people access to information that’s critical for stakeholders in the criminal legal system. The database - The Police Records Access Project - is a years-long collaboration between CalMatters, The Los Angeles Times, the San Francisco Chronicle and KQED. Sukey Lewis is a criminal justice reporter for KQED and she joins us to explain how the public can use this resource.

Best Of: Teaching Cursive

Cursive writing began to fade away in K-12 education in 2010, back when Common Core began to focus more on keyboard skills for students. California recently passed a law requiring cursive instruction during first through sixth grade. But historians are worried that an entire generation cannot read or interpret historical documents, which are often written in cursive script. As schools start around the region, we’re going to listen back to this February interview with Sacramento State Archivist and instructor Julie Thomas about the threat to learning factual information about the past, and the value of reintroducing cursive in the classroom.

‘The Zanzibar’ Legacy Concert

Almost 80 years ago, the Zanzibar Cafe in Sacramento’s West End neighborhood drew in crowds to dance while enjoying Southern food and jazz. But the business shut down after less than a decade, never to open again. Now, a new concert called “The Zanzibar” is welcoming people to rebuild that atmosphere and sense of community. Tauz Hall-Shandil is the co-founder of Cherub and the concert’s organizer, and joins Insight to talk about the show taking place at 8 p.m. at the Rink Studios in Old North Sacramento.
