[1]On this edition of Making Contact, we'll explore the aftermath of the Ghost Ship fire and the battle to preserve live/work spaces, and then we look at the San Pablo fire in Oakland California that displaced at least a hundred residents...many of whom are now living on the streets in tent encampments. That's next on Making Contact, a program connecting people, vital ideas and important information.
