Sacramento City Council approves a bilateral ceasefire resolution. Also, how California is harnessing artificial intelligence. Finally, El Dorado County author and illustrator of “A River Called Home: A River Fable.”

Sacramento Votes on Bilateral Ceasefire
The Sacramento City Council passed a Gaza ceasefire resolution just before midnight on Tuesday, after hearing from dozens of public comment testimonies. Officials approved the resolution in a 6 to 1 vote, with only Councilmember Lisa Kaplan opposing it. Councilmember Mai Vang was absent, due to a previously scheduled commitment. The resolution was crafted by Jewish and Muslim leaders in the community, and formally calls for Israel to stop bombing Gaza and the West Bank, as well as for Hamas to end attacks against Israel. The proposal also urges the release of Israeli hostages and Palestinians who are held without charge - as well as denouncing antisemitism and Islamophobia. Joining us is Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg and Basim Elkarra, Executive Director of the Sacramento Valley chapter of the Council of American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), to discuss last night’s city council vote.

Artist Robin Center and author Moira Magneson have boated 27 rivers across four continents, which inspired their novella A River Called Home: A River Fable, a love letter to the American River as well as a testament to the power of friendship.
