Making high school proms more accessible and inclusive for students. Also, the Missing and Murdered Indigenous People crisis along the North Coast. Finally, exploring Asian American identity and culture through California food.

Inclusive Proms

We’re nearing the end of the school year in Northern California and with it comes a highly anticipated cultural experience for high school students. Prom season is in full swing and many of these students are busy preparing for what many consider to be a rite of passage in America. But not all students are attending the event. This special evening may be out of reach for them financially, or they may not feel the event is in an inclusive space. But efforts are currently underway in Sacramento to change that. CapRadio’s Sacramento Education Reporter Srishti Prabha and Sacramento communities reporter Janelle Salanga teamed up to learn how students, community organizations, and schools are taking steps to help make Prom accessible, inclusive, and enjoyable for all students.

Missing and murdered Indigenous people in North Coast

Allie Hostler, Managing Editor of Two Rivers Tribune in eastern Humboldt County, the only Native owned newspaper in California, as well as Yurok Tribal Police Chief Greg O’Rourke, discuss the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People in their tribal communities along the North Coast, which was also part of an inaugural listening event this month hosted by the California Attorney General’s Office

Asian American Identity in food

“Hyphen American” cuisine isn’t as simple as making food from the country or region of origin. Cooking often involves incorporating your own experiences. And for those with an immigrant background, that becomes part of their cuisine. In today’s episode drop of  “Mid-Pacific,” CapRadio’s newest podcast hosted by Sarah Mizes-Tan, we dive into understanding this balance when exploring Asian American cuisine. Sarah joins Insight to share what she learned along her journey.
