UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA MEDICAL WORKERS SAY THEIR PAY HAS NOT KEPT PACE WITH THE HIGH COST OF LIVING.

KPBS REPORTER, TAMMY, SPOKE TO SOME WHO WALKED OFF THE JOB TODAY AS PART OF THE STATEWIDE STRIKE.

>> Reporter: MAKING RENT HAS BEEN A CHALLENGE FOR MICHAEL AMANS.

HE'S A MEDICAL BILLER AT UC SAN DIEGO MEDICAL CENTER.

>> PERSONALLY I'M ONE PAYCHECK AWAY FROM BEING CONVICTED BECAUSE MY LOW WAGES DON'T AFFORD THE COST OF LIVING HERE IN SAN DIEGO.

>> Reporter: HE'S ONE OF TENS OF THOUSANDS OF UC MEDICAL WORKERS ACROSS CALIFORNIA WHO ARE ON STRIKE THROUGH TOMORROW.

AT HILL CREST MEDICAL CENTER, HUNDREDS OF CUSTODIANS, FOOD SERVICE WORKERS, AND PATIENT CARE TECHNICIANS RALLIED MONDAY.

>> WE'RE HERE ON AN ECONOMIC STRIKE BECAUSE OF UC'S FAILURE TO ADDRESS AFFORDABILITY CRISIS THAT OUR WORKERS ARE FACING OR STRUGGLING TO SURVIVE.

>> Reporter: THEIR UNION CONTRACT ENDED MORE THAN A YEAR AGO.

NEGOTIATIONS HAVE BEEN ONGOING SINCE.

UC SAYS IT HAS INCREASED PAY TO AT LEAST $25 AN HOUR AND SOME MONEY TO PAY FOR MEDICAL CARE.

BUT THE UNION SAYS UC CAN DO MORE.

>> WE'VE GOT TO LOOK AT AFFORDABILITY THROUGH THE TOTALITY OF WHAT IT IS.

WHAT ARE MY WAGES WORTH IN TERMS OF PURCHASING POWER?

HOW MUCH IS MY HEALTH INSURANCE GOING UP?

>> Reporter: IT IS UNCLEAR HOW THE TWO-DAY STRIKE WILL AFFECT PATIENTS.

KPBS SPOKE TO SOME PATIENTS WHO DID NOT WANT TO BE IDENTIFIED.

AN APPOINTMENT RESCHEDULED, AND ANOTHER HIS POST-SURGERY CARE HAS GONE WITHOUT DISRUPTION.

THE UNION GAVE UC TEN DAYS NOTICE ABOUT THE STRIKE.

UC SAYS THEY HAVE PLANS IN PLACE TO MINIMIZE THE IMPACT ON PATIENTS.

THEIR FACILITIES ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN OPEN.

KPBS NEWS.

>> AND WE SAW PLENTY OF RAIN ACROSS THE COUNTY THIS WEEKEND, BUT ALL THE RAINFALL DIDN'T PACK AS MUCH OF A PUNCH AS ANTICIPATED WHEN IT COMES TO FLOODING AND OTHER RELATED IMPACTS.

OUR MEDIA PARTNER SPOKE TO A GEOLOGIST TO FIND OUT WHY THAT WAS THE CASE.

HE SAYS THE RATE OF THE RAINFALL HAD A LOT TO DO WITH IT.

HE SAYS COMPARED TO DOWNPOURS IN RECENT YEARS, THIS WEEKEND'S RAIN FELL GENTLY OVER MANY HOURS.

>> THOSE KINDS DON'T USUALLY CAUSE ANY PROBLEMS.

IF THE RAIN WILL COME DOWN IN TORRANCE, IT WOULD HAVE WASHED OFF A LOT OF THE SOILS ON THE BURNT SLOPES LIKE IT THIS AND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN MESSY WITH A LOT COMING OUT ON THE ROAD.

YOU COULD THINK BACK OVER RECENT YEARS, WHERE WE HAD ULTRA RAIN AND HOW MUCH COLLAPSES WE HAVE HAD AND LANDSLIDES WE'VE HAD.

WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE THAT YET.

>> THEY SAY THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE SLOPE AND STABILITIES INCREASE AS WE SEE MORE RAIN ON THE HORIZON.

>>> WEATHER HEADLINES THROUGHOUT THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.

OVERALL, I'M TRACKING MORE RAIN CHANCES IN THE FORECAST.

THAT MEANS WE'LL SEE AN ELEVATED RISK OF FLASH FLOODING CONTINUE AS WELL.

AFTER THAT, OVERALL, WE'LL BE IN A MILD, BUT BREEZY WEATHER PATTERN HERE THROUGHOUT THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.

WITH THE BEST NEWS OF ALL, I'M TRACKING A PRETTY NICE REBOUND HERE FOR THE WEEKEND.

I'LL HAVE AN UPDATED LOOK ON THAT EXTENDED FORECAST COMING UP.

>>> THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS CONSIDERING MAKING THEIR JUNE TRAVEL BAND RETROACTIVE TO IMMIGRANTS ALREADY LEGALLY IN THE UNITED STATES.

KPBS MILITARY AND VETERANS REPORTER, ANDREW DYER, SAYS THIS INCLUDES TENS OF THOUSANDS OF AFGHAN REFUGEES.

>> THE DRAFT POLICY WOULD AFFECT GREEN CARD APPLICANTS AND ASYLUM SPEAKERS FROM COUNTRIES ON THE LIST.

WHAT'S UNUSUAL ABOUT THE POLICY, THEY WOULD APPLY TO PEOPLE ALREADY VETTED TO BE IN THE U.S.

>> THESE ARE FOLKS WHO ARE FLEEING PROSECUTION.

>> Reporter: THE PRESIDENT AND COFOUNDER OF SAN DIEGO BASED AFGHAN EVAC THAT ADVOCATES FOR THE FORMER ALLIES FROM AFGHANISTAN.

>> SOME OF THEM ARE WARTIME ALLIES THAT WERE FLOWN HERE BY THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, AND TOLD TO HANG OUT FOR A SECOND, YOU'LL GET THROUGH, AND YOU'LL HAVE YOUR SHOT AT THE AMERICAN DREAM.

>> Reporter: HE SPOKE TO US FROM WASHINGTON, D.C.

WHERE HE IS MEETING TO RALLY OPPOSITION TO THE POLICY CHANGE.

>> WE'RE RUNNING AROUND TODAY MEETING WITH SENATORS AND THEIR STAFF, AS WELL AS DEMOCRATIC SENATORS IN THE STAFF AND COMMITTEE STAFF ON JUDICIARY, ARMED SERVICES, ON FOREIGN RELATIONS.

>> Reporter: ACCORDING TO A REPORT LAST WEEK, THE NEW YORK TIMES BEING FROM ONE OF THE COUNTRIES IN THE TRAVEL BAN WOULD WEIGH IN ON GREEN CARD AND ASYLUM APPLICATIONS.

THE POLICY WOULD APPLY TO THE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF AFGHANS WHO CAME TO THE U.S.

AFTER THE COUNTRY FELL TO THE TALIBAN IN 2021.

MANY OF THEM ARE HERE ON TEMPORARY STATUS OR HUMANITARIAN PAROLE.

TWO POLICIES TRUMP ENDED IN THE SPRING.

>> WHAT WE'RE WORRIED ABOUT, THEY WILL USE THIS TO FORCE PEOPLE WHO COULD BE OUT OF LIMBO INTO A PERMANENT LIMBO OR EVEN WORSE, DEPORTATION FROM OUR COUNTRY, AFTER HAVING MADE IT HERE.

>> Reporter: THE POLICY IS BEING CONSIDERED AMID OTHER DRASTIC CHANGES TO THE ASYLUM SYSTEM.

LAST MONTH THEY ANNOUNCED THEY WOULD ONLY ACCEPT 7,500 REFUGEES THIS YEAR WITH PRIORITY GIVEN TO WHITE SOUTH AFRICANS.

ANDREW DYER, KPBS NEWS.

>>> AS THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION CONTINUES ITS AGGRESSIVE MASS DEPORTATION CAMPAIGN, IMMIGRATION LAWYERS ARE INCREASINGLY TURNING TO A LAW THAT THEY WOULD PROTECT AGAINST A KING.

GUSTAVO SOLISE EXPLAINS WHY THEY HAVE SKYROCKETED IN RECENT MONTHS.

>> ALL RIGHT, HEAR ME OUT.

THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION IS USING THIS THING CALLED THE BUREAU OF IMMIGRATION APPEALS TO REWRITE THE RULES OF IMMIGRATION DETENTION AND DEPORT AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE.

BUT THERE'S A GROUP OF LAWYERS WHO ARE FILING THESE FEDERAL LAWSUITS, HABEAS CORPUS WHO ARE TRYING TO GIVE THEM THEIR FREEDOM.

NOW, I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING, BUT NO.

I'M NOT CRAZY.

AND NO, THIS IS NOT A CONSPIRACY THEORY.

IT'S ANOTHER EPISODE OF THE BORDER PEOPLE.

>>> WE ARE, RIGHT NOW, IN THE MIDDLE OF A MASSIVE LEGAL FIGHT PLAYING OUT IN COURTROOMS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY.

ON THE ONE SIDE, YOU HAVE THE FULL FORCE OF THE MOST POWERFUL GOVERNMENT ON THE PLANET, SPENDING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS ON MASS ARRESTS.

MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR PEOPLE TO GET OUT ON BOND OR PAROLE.

ON THE OTHER, YOU HAVE INDIVIDUAL LAWYERS FILING THOUSANDS OF FEDERAL LAWSUITS THAT ESSENTIALLY ACCUSE THE GOVERNMENT OF ILLEGAL AND INDEFINITE DETENTIONS.

NOW, TO UNDERSTAND THIS FIGHT, IT'S IMPORTANT TO KNOW HOW THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION HAS REWRITTEN THE RULES OF IMMIGRATION DETENTION.

LET'S START WITH HOW THE IMMIGRATION COURT SYSTEM HAS BEEN SET UP.

NOW, IT'S NOT PART OF THE FEDERAL COURT SYSTEM, WHICH IS UNDER THE JUDICIAL BRANCH AND HAS INDEPENDENT JUDGES.

IMMIGRATION COURTS ARE UNDER THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH, AND SPECIFICALLY, UNDER THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE.

WHICH MEANS THE ATTORNEY GENERAL HAS THE POWER TO HIRE AND FIRE IMMIGRATION JUDGES.

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAN ALSO USE THIS ADMINISTRATIVE PART OF THE COURT SYSTEM.

THE BOARD OF IMMIGRATION APPEALS, TO CHANGE THE WAY JUDGES INTERPRET IMMIGRATION LAW.

FOR EXAMPLE, THIS DECISION CHANGED THE RULES, SO JUDGES CANNOT EVEN HEAR A BOND REQUEST IN CERTAIN CASES.

THIS LEAVES IMMIGRANTS IN DETENTION WITH FEWER OPTIONS.

IF YOU CANNOT GET A HEARING FOR A BOND OR GET OUT ON PAROLE, YOU ARE ESSENTIALLY STUCK IN DETENTION.

NOW, ONE OF THE LAWYERS I TALKED TO HAVE A CLIENT WHO WAS GRANTED BOND, PAID THE BOND, BUT WAS STILL NOT ALLOWED TO LEAVE.

SO NOW LAWYERS ARE TURNING TO THE FEDERAL COURT, AND THEY'RE FILING THESE LAWSUITS KNOWN AS HABEAS CORPUS, THAT SAY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CANNOT KEEP THEM DETAINED INDEFINITELY WITHOUT GIVING THEM A CHANCE TO GET OUT.

NOW, FOR A BIT OF HISTORICAL CONTEXT, THE FOUNDING FATHERS PUT HABEAS CORPUS PROTECTIONS INTO THE CONSTITUTION AS A DIRECT RESPONSE TO BRITISH OPPRESSION.

DURING THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION, BRITISH SOLDIERS USED GENERAL WARRANTS TO RAID PEOPLE'S HOMES WITHOUT PROBABLE CAUSE.

AND THEY ALSO THREW PEOPLE IN JAIL WITHOUT GIVING THEM A HEARING FOR THEIR RELEASE.

NOW, ALMOST 250 YEARS LATER, IMMIGRATION LAWYERS ARE USING THAT SAME LEGAL PROTECTION TO CHALLENGE TRUMP'S MASS DEPORTATION CAMPAIGN.

COLLECTIVELY, LAWYERS HAVE FILED MORE THAN 4,000 HABEAS PETITIONS IN FEDERAL COURTS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY.

MOST OF THAT HAS BEEN IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS.

FOR EXAMPLE, RIGHT HERE IN THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA.

LAWYERS FILED JUST ONE PETITION IN JANUARY, AND MORE THAN 70 IN OCTOBER.

NOW, WE RECENTLY PUBLISHED A TWO-PART SERIES ON THIS.

MAKE SURE YOU CHECK IT OUT ON KPBS.ORG.

AS ALWAYS, THANKS FOR WATCHING THE BORDER BRIEF.

PLEASE SEND US ANY QUESTIONS OR SUGGESTIONS FOR A FUTURE EPISODE.

>>> KPBS REACHED OUT TO THE U.S.

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE WITH QUESTIONS REGARDING LAWYERS CLAIMS AND THE SURGE OF HABEAS PETITIONS.

A DOJ SPOKESPERSON RESPONDED WITH THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT.

PRESIDENT TRUMP AND THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE WILL CONTINUE TO ENFORCE THE LAW AS IT IS WRITTEN TO DEFEND AND PROTECT THE SAFETY AND SECURITY OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

>>> I'M JEFF BENNETT TONIGHT ON THE NEWS HOUR.

PRESIDENT TRUMP DOES A 180 ON THE HOUSE VOTE TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.

THAT'S AT 7:00 AFTER EVENING EDITION ON KPBS.

>>> A LOT WILL BE AT STAKE IN NEXT YEAR'S MIDTERM ELECTIONS, INCLUDING CONTROL OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES AND SENATE.

FOR THIS WEEK'S WHY IT MATTERS SEGMENT, VOICE OF SAN DIEGO, SCOTT LEWIS, EXPLAINS HOW SAN DIEGO RESIDENTS MAY HAVE TO DECIDE ON A FEW MEASURES THAT WILL IMMEDIATELY IMPACT THEIR BANK ACCOUNTS.

>>> ELECTED OFFICIALS ARE DECIDING NOW WHAT COULD BE ON THE BALLOT NEXT YEAR.

AT LEAST THREE DIFFERENT TAX MEASURES ARE MOVING FORWARD.

WE RECENTLY TALKED ABOUT ONE, THE SAN DIEGO CITY COUNCIL IS CONSIDERING PUTTING ON THE BALLOT.

THAT'S THE VACATION RENTALS SECOND HOME TAX.

COUNCIL MEMBER RIVERA IS PROPOSING AN ANNUAL TAX OF UP TO $5,000 PER BEDROOM FOR VACANT SECOND HOMES OR VACATION RENTALS.

HE WANTS IT ON THE JUNE PRIMARY BALLOT, JUST SEVEN MONTHS FROM NOW.

IN PART, SUPPORTERS THINK THAT WILL BE EASIER TO PASS THAN IF IT WERE ON THE GENERAL ELECTION BALLOT IN NOVEMBER, WHERE THERE COULD BE AT LEAST TWO OTHER TAX PROPOSALS, WHICH BRINGS US TO ANOTHER CITY SALES TAX.

IN THE CITY OF SAN DIEGO, THE COALITION OF LABOR UNIONS IS PUSHING TO PLACE A ONE CENT SALES TAX MEASURE ON THE BALLOT.

GENERATING AN ESTIMATED $400 MILLION ANNUALLY TO FUND INFRASTRUCTURE REPAIRS, WILDFIRE PREVENTION, WATER PIPE, AND SEWER UPGRADES.

THE MONEY WOULD ALSO KEEP LIBRARIES, REC CENTERS, AND CITY SERVICES FULLY STAFFED.

THAT'S WHAT THEY SAY.

IF IT SOUNDS FAMILIAR, THAT'S BECAUSE VOTERS NARROWLY REJECTED THE SAME MEASURE IN 2024, AND THE POLLING IS NOT GOING WELL FOR THIS NEW VERSION.

THEY MAY COMPETE WITH THE COUNTY REVENUE MEASURE.

THREE DEMOCRATS ON THE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS HAVE LAUNCHED A STUDY TO DETERMINE WHETHER TO ASK VOTERS FOR A NEW TAX MEASURE IN 2026.

THEY SET UP CLOSED DOOR SUBCOMMITTEES AT THE COUNTY, SO THEY COULD USE COUNTY FUNDS TO DO THEIR RESEARCH.

THEY HAVE NOT YET DECIDED OR AT LEAST ANNOUNCED WHAT KIND OF TAX THEY WANT TO PURSUE.

THEY ARE CALLING IT A PULL, THE SAN DIEGO COUNTY HEALTHCARE EMERGENCY RESPONSE CHILDCARE AND CLEAN WATER FUNDING MEASURE, WHICH WOULD BE A HALF CENT SALES TAX.

THAT, OF COURSE, WAS IN A POLL.

OPPONENTS ARGUE THE COST OF LIVING IS ALREADY TOO HIGH, AND WORRY ABOUT ADDING YET ANOTHER TAX BURDEN ON LOWER AND MIDDLE INCOME RESIDENTS.

YOU'RE LIKELY TO HEAR A LOT MORE ABOUT THESE PROPOSALS IN COMING MONTHS.

FOR VOICE OF SAN DIEGO, I'M SCOTT LEWIS.

THAT'S WHY IT MATTERS.

>> THE VOICE OF SAN DIEGO IS ONE OF OUR PARTNERS FOR THE PUBLIC MATTERS INITIATIVE.

YOU CAN LEARN MORE AT KPBS.ORG/PUBLICMATTERS.

>>> IMAGINE YOUR PARTNER POPPED THE QUESTION, AND YOU'VE SAID YES.

BUT NOW THE QUESTION IS HOW MUCH WILL THE WEDDING COST?

HOW PRESIDENT TRUMP'S TRADE AGENDA MAY FACTOR INTO THE COST OF MANY TRADITIONS.

>> Reporter: THERE'S NO DENYING IT.

GETTING MARRIED COSTS MONEY.

>> ON AVERAGE IN THE U.S., WEDDINGS ARE $33,000.

>> Reporter: THAT'S AN INCREASE OF 18% OVER THE LAST FIVE YEARS, ACCORDING TO THE KNOT.

TODAY, TARIFFS ARE ADDING TO THE PRICE HIKE.

>> A THIRD OF COUPLES WERE WORRIED ABOUT TARIFFS WHEN IT COMES TO THEIR BUDGET AND THEIR PLANS.

>> Reporter: WITH TARIFF RATES AS HIGH AS 50% FOR SOME COUNTRIES, SOME BUSINESSES ARE STRUGGLING.

>> I SPENT A LOT OF MONEY ON LIKE CHOCOLATE, WHICH I BUY FROM BELGIUM.

I BUY CHOCOLATE.

I NOTICED IT WENT FROM $44 FOR FIVE AND A HALF POUNDS TO $78.

>> Reporter: THEY OWN A CAKES BAKERY IN PHOENIX, ARIZONA.

SHE SAYS ONE CAKE COULD HAVE UP TO A DOZEN INGREDIENTS, ALL SOURCED FROM DIFFERENT COUNTRIES WITH VARYING TARIFF RATES.

>> THIS YEAR I'VE BEEN REEVALUATING MY PRICING EVERY THREE TO SIX MONTHS.

WHEN THINGS ARE CHANGING THIS MUCH AND THIS OFTEN, IT IS JUST REALLY HARD TO KEEP TRACK, AND THEN, OF COURSE, I DON'T WANT TO CONTINUE TO LOSE MONEY.

>> Reporter: BEYOND THE CAKE, THEY HIRE 14 VENDORS ON AVERAGE.

FROM THE ENGAGEMENT RING TO THE FOOD, FLORALS, AND THE DRESS, EACH ITEM IS TOUCHED BY TARIFFS.

COUPLES ARE REALLY PRIORITIZING WHAT MATTERS MOST.

THEN VENDORS CAN BE CREATIVE ABOUT HOW TO GET THERE.

>> Reporter: DESPITE THE ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTY, THE WEDDING INDUSTRY IS HOLDING STRONG.

>> PEOPLE ARE SO CRAVING CONNECTION, CELEBRATION THAT THEY CONTINUE TO PRIORITIZE IT ABOVE ALL ELSE.

>> Reporter: I'M MARYBEL GONZALEZ REPORTING.

>>> DESPITE THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN BEING OVERAND AIRLINES BEING BACK TO NORMAL.

INSTEAD OF TRAVELING AWAY, MANY ARE OPTING TO STAY IN SAN DIEGO FOR THE HOLIDAYS.

DATA FROM NERD WALLET SHOWS NEARLY $311 BILLION WILL BE SPENT ON FLIGHTS AND HOTELS THIS HOLIDAY SEASON.

IT'S AN EXPENSE NEARLY 56% OF AMERICANS WILL BE CUTTING BACK ON LIKE LINDA BUCHARD.

>> THERE'S ONE, AND YOU CAN COME TO BALBOA PARK AND NOT SPEND A TIME IF YOU DON'T WANT TO.

YOU CAN WALK AROUND AND LOOK AT NATURE.

THEY'RE HAVING THE BEST TIME.

WE HAD OUR BACKPACK FULL OF THINGS, DRINKS, WATER, AND YEAH, WE'RE GOOD TO GO.

>> IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO TREAT YOUR FAMILY TO A STAYCATION, HERE ARE SOME IDEAS FOR YOU.

YOU CAN CATCH FREE OREGON CONCERTS AT THE OREGON PAVILION IN BALBOA PARK.

YOU CAN ALSO CHECK OUT HISTORIC BUILDINGS IN OLD TOWN, AND THAT'S FREE.

LOCAL HOTELS ARE ALSO OFFERING SPECIAL ACTIVITIES FOR BLACK FRIDAY AND CYBER MONDAY.

>>> THIS SATURDAY, THE COMIC CON MUSEUM NOT ONLY HAVE EXHIBITS ON DR.

WHO AND ALSO A PAIR OF PANELS TO ENLIGHTEN YOU ABOUT MARVEL'S DAREDEVIL IT IN COMICS IN MANY FORMS.

KPBS ARTS REPORTER HAS IT THIS PREVIEW.

>> Reporter: THIS SATURDAY, THE COMIC CON MUSEUM WILL HOST A PAIR OF PANELS.

FIRST UP, COMICS IN MANY FORMS.

ORGANIZED BY SAN DIEGO STATE UNIVERSITY CENTER FOR COMIC STUDIES.

THE PANEL WILL COMPARE ENGLISH LANGUAGE COMICS WITH ONES FROM FRANCE, ITALY, AND JAPAN.

ANTONIA IS ONE OF THE PANELISTS.

>> ITALIAN COMICS ARE THE FORMALITY.

IT COMES FROM FUMO, THE SMOKE OF THE BALLOON, THAT COMES FROM VISUALLY, THAT COMES FROM, YOU KNOW, THE MOUTH OF THE SPEAKER.

>> THEY SEE IT AS THE ONE CLOSEST TO FILM BECAUSE THEY ASK YOU TO MAKE SENSE OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN VISUALS AND WORDS.

IN THIS EXAMPLE, HE'LL BE DISCUSSING FROM THE EXTRAORDINARY ADVENTURES.

>> SO TO USE THE VISUALS AND IN THE SAME PAGE WILL COME FROM OTHER MEDIA LIKE THE RADIO OR IT COMES FROM THE MIND OF THE MAIN CHARACTER.

WHY THEY ARE ALL INTERCONNECTED, SO IT TAKES A LOT OF TIME TO UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING ON.

SO FORGET ABOUT IT, SIMPLICITY.

FORGET ABOUT THIS IS FOR A KID.

YOU REALLY NEED TO SPEND TIME GOING UP AND DOWN, DOWN AND UP, LEFT AND RIGHT, RIGHT AND LEFT, READING MULTIPLE TIMES.

ALL THE TAX YOU SEE AND THEN PUTTING THINGS TOGETHER IS AN EXAMPLE FOR ME OF THE COMPLEXITY OF THE MEDIA.

>> Reporter: ON THE SECOND PANEL, THE AUTHOR WILL DISCUSS HIS NEW BOOK ON THE BELOVED SUPER HERO, DAREDEVIL.

IT'S ONE OF THE INAUGURAL TITLE IN MARVEL'S NEW MARVEL AGE OF COMICS SERIES.

>> I HAVE FOUR OF THE LAUNCH BOOKS AND MY BOOK IS ABOUT FRANK MILLER AND DAREDEVIL BORN AGAIN.

SO I WILL BE DISCUSSING ALL THE REASONS WHY I THINK IT'S NOTABLE AND INFLUENTIAL, AND MEMORABLE, AND LASTING.

IMPORTANT TO ALL OF THOSE THINGS.

>> Reporter: DRAWN TO MILLER'S DARK SERIES ABOUT THE DAREDEVIL, MATT MURDOCH CHARACTER.

>> IT WAS THIS SORT OF METHODICAL AND VICIOUS DESTROYING OF EVERY PART OF MATT MURDOCH'S LIFE.

IT'S THIS GRIPPING TALE OF HIM GETTING TORN DOWN MORE AND MORE AND MORE, TRYING TO HOLD ON TO THAT TINY SCRAP OF WHAT MADE HIM A HERO IN THE FIRST PLACE.

ONCE YOU STRIP AWAY THE COMFORTABLE HOME, THE MONEY, THE JOB, THE SUPPORT GROUP, THE COST OF ALL OF THAT.

IS THERE STILL ENOUGH INSIDE HIM TO SORT OF HELP HIM RISE AGAIN AND TRANSCEND TO ALL OF THAT, AND SORT OF RETURN TO BEING A HERO.

SO I FOUND THAT SUCH A COMPELLING, KIND OF MATURE WAY TO LOOK AT THAT SORT OF FAMILIAR STORY, BUT IN A VERY DIFFERENT AND LIKE I SAID, EMOTIONAL WAY.

>> Reporter: HE'LL BE SIGNING COPIES OF HIS DAREDEVIL, BORN AGAIN, AS WELL AS ADAPTATION OF MEGALOPOUS.

>>> AS WE HEAD INTO TONIGHT, I'M TRACKING ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM WORKING ITS WAY FROM NORTHERN CALIFORNIA OFF TO THE SOUTH.

THAT IS GOING TO BRING, ONCE AGAIN, WIDESPREAD RAINFALL HERE, EXTENDING DOWN TO THE BORDER THROUGHOUT THIS EVENING AND TONIGHT.

SO FOR TONIGHT, LOWS IN THE 50s.

IT WILL BE LOW CLOUDS IN THE COAST, TRACKING WIDESPREAD SHOWERS HERE ACROSS THE REGION.

TEMPERATURE WISE ACROSS THE REST OF THE REGION, ONCE AGAIN, WIDESPREAD RAINFALL WILL CONTINUE IN THE FORECAST.

SO FROM OCEANSIDE DOWN TO CHULA VISTA, TRACKING PRETTY GOOD RAIN CHANCES AS WE HEAD INTO TONIGHT.

THE OVERALL VIEW OF TUESDAY, TOMORROW'S FORECAST.

THAT STORM CENTER WILL WORK ITS WAY OVER THE -- PRETTY MUCH CENTRAL PARTS OF NEVADA.

BUT ONCE AGAIN, TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.

MORE RAINFALL CONTINUING DOWN THROUGH SAN DIEGO.

SO DEFINITELY HOLD ON TO THOSE UMBRELLAS AS WE HEAD THROUGHOUT YOUR FORECAST ON TUESDAY.

ONCE AGAIN, WIDESPREAD RAINFALL HERE CONTINUING IN THE FORECAST.

NOW ON WEDNESDAY, WE WILL START TO DRY OUT.

THAT WILL BE THE GOOD NEWS THAT THE RAINFALL WILL CONTINUE TO WORK ITS WAY OFF TO THE EAST.

FOR TONIGHT AND FOR TOMORROW, DEFINITELY KEEP A CHANCE AND KEEP AN EYE ON THAT RAINFALL.

OVERALL FOR YOUR EXTENDED FORECAST FOR THE COASTAL AREAS, I WILL BE TRACKING TEMPERATURES IN THE 60s.

LOOKS LIKE WE COULD SEE SOME 70s HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND.

THAT'S THE WEEKEND REBOUND I WAS TALKING ABOUT.

BUT FOR TUESDAY, SOMETIMES ON WEDNESDAY, AND ANOTHER BATCH ON THURSDAY, WE WILL BE TRACKING SOME SHOWER CHANCES HERE.

INLAND FORECAST, WE'LL SEE SHOWER CHANCES ON TUESDAY AND THURSDAY.

TEMPERATURE WISE, WE'LL BE IN THE 60s.

ONCE AGAIN, ANOTHER NICE WARMUP HERE.

TEMPERATURES BACK INTO THE 70s, HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND.

AFTER YOUR MOUNTAIN FORECAST, WE WILL BE TRACKING THAT RAIN AND SNOW, PRIMARILY ON TUESDAY.

LOOKS LIKE WE WILL CLEAR OUT AFTER THAT AND START TO SEE MORE SUNSHINE.

BUT NOT REALLY GOING TO FEEL LIKE IT.

TEMPERATURES WILL MAINTAIN IN THE 30s WITH SOME 40s ON SATURDAY.

THEN ACROSS THE DESERT, TEMPERATURES TAKING A DIP AS WE HEAD INTO THE WEEKEND.

BUT LOOK AT THAT REBOUND BETWEEN FRIDAY AND SATURDAY GOING FROM THE 50s ON FRIDAY TO THE 70s ON SATURDAY.

>>> CHECK OUT THE SAN DIEGO NEWS NOW PODCAST.

TOMORROW, KPBS MIDDAY EDITION HOST SPEAKS WITH A UC BERKELEY LAW PROFESSOR ABOUT THE FUTURE OF THE SCHOLARSHIP MEANT FOR BLACK STUDENTS.

THE PODCAST GOES LIVE MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY AT 5:00 A.M.

YOU CAN FIND IT ANYWHERE YOU LISTEN TO PODCASTS.

>>> IT'S BEEN 35 YEARS SINCE NATIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH WAS FEDERALLY RECOGNIZED.

KPBS ARTS REPORTER TAKES US TO A NATIVE AMERICAN OWNED GALLERY IN THE GASLIGHT QUARTER TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THEIR HISTORY AND CULTURE.

>> Reporter: FOR MANY NATIVE PEOPLE, THIS MONTH IS THE TIME TO REFLECT ON PAST TRANSACTIONS, AND CELEBRATE SAN DIEGO COUNTY FOR A MORE INCLUSIVE FUTURE.

>> THE BUFFALO IS MILLION WE FEEL IS SACRED.

>> Reporter: NATIVE STAR BOUTIQUE IN THE QUARTER.

MANY PEOPLE STILL DON'T KNOW THE TRUE HISTORY OF NATIVE AMERICANS.

>> FOR 23,000 YEARS, WE BARTERED AND TRADED WITH PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD.

WE LEARNED FROM THEIR CULTURE, THEY LEARNED FROM OURS.

WE TOOK IDEAS FROM ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS, AND WE BLENDED IT WITHIN OUR CIVILIZATION.

AND SO THE IDEA WE JUST GOT DISCOVERED BY SOMEBODY WHO GOT LOST AT SEA AND THOUGHT THEY LANDED ON INDIA, IT WAS REALLY NOT ACCURATE.

>> Reporter: THORN SAYS ONE OF THE MOST MEANINGFUL WAYS TO RESERVE NATIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH IS TO TAKE TIME TO LEARN ABOUT THE PAST.

>> THE TRUTH IS IF WE ACTUALLY EMBRACE THE PAST, EVEN IF IT IS A REALLY HARD AND PAINFUL THING FOR PEOPLE TO LOOK AT, IT GIVES US THE OPPORTUNITY TO EVOLVE AND NOT CONTINUE IN THAT WAY IN THE FUTURE.

>> Reporter: THE U.S.

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR WORKS TO PRESERVE THE NATION'S NATURAL RESOURCES AND CULTURAL HERITAGE.

THIS YEAR, THE AGENCY IS FOCUSED ON WEAVING TOGETHER NATIVE AMERICANS PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE.

ACKNOWLEDGING HISTORIC FEELINGS AND THE WORK UNDERWAY TO ADDRESS THEM.

THEY SAY RESPONDING WITH ANGER ISN'T ALWAYS THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO CORRECT MISINFORMATION ABOUT NATIVE COMMUNITIES.

>> WE HAVE A SAYING, WE WALK SOFTLY.

WHAT THAT MEANS IS SOMETIMES THERE'S A BETTER WAY OF MAKING CHANGE THAN BEING ANGRY BECAUSE WE CAN'T CHANGE THE PAST.

BUT WHAT WE CAN DO IS BRING MORE AWARENESS THROUGH KINDNESS.

I FIND THAT BUILDING A BRIDGE WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE NON-NATIVE BY JUST SHARING WITH THEM THINGS THEY MIGHT NOT KNOW IS REALLY THE BEST WAY TO BRING CHANGE.

>> Reporter: THORNS' BUSINESS RECENTLY HOSTED A NATIVE AMERICAN ART AND FASHION SHOW.

BUT SHE GIVES SPACE TO NATIVE ARTISTS IN HER GALLERY YEAR ROUND.

>> THIS IS MY CHILDHOOD HORSE.

>> Reporter: ONE OF THE ARTIST CURRENTLY FEATURED IS RUBEN, WHO DRAWS INSPIRATION FROM HIS TRIBE'S TRADITIONS.

>> I'LL PAINT LIKE THE BIRD SINGERS BECAUSE I COME FROM -- MY PEOPLE, THE APACHES, WE'RE A DRUM FAMILY, RIGHT?

WE DANCE TO THE DRUM LIKE THE TRADITIONAL DANCERS.

AND WE ARE HERE, THE BIRD SINGERS.

I PAINTED SOME BIRD SINGERS TO HONOR THE PEOPLE FROM HERE.

I JUST LOVE IT.

>> Reporter: THE PIECES ARE BRIGHT, EXPRESSIVE, AND FULL OF MOVEMENT.

ONE OF HIS FAVORITE WORKS IS A PAINTING OF A FEATHER.

SOMETHING HE HOPES UPLIFT ANYONE WHO SEES IT.

>> I WANT YOU TO FEEL WHEN YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE PAINTING, EITHER YOU NEED STRENGTH THAT DAY, THEN YOU'RE LIKE OH YEAH, I FEEL IT.

IF YOU JUST WANT HAPPINESS, YOU FEEL IT.

I'VE HAD PEOPLE SAY IT IS SO CALMING.

I'M LIKE YES, I PAINTED THAT BECAUSE I NEEDED THAT.

I NEED THAT MYSELF.

>> Reporter: NATIVE AMERICANS HAVE LONG USED ART TO SHARE COMMUNITIES, SPIRITUALTY.

CREATING SPACE FOR NATIVE ARTISTS IS ONE WAY SHE CONTRIBUTES.

OTHER BUSINESS OWNERS CAN TOO.

>> IF YOU OWN A BUSINESS OR YOU ARE IN A POSITION OF LEADERSHIP, SOMETHING THAT IS VERY SIMPLE IS TO CONTACT ONE OF THE TRIBES IF YOU ARE HAVING A MAJOR PUBLIC GATHERING, AND MAKE SURE YOU OPEN UP WITH THE LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT.

YOU'RE ACKNOWLEDGING THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE THERE BEFORE, BUT YOU ARE ALSO ACKNOWLEDGING THE LAND THAT SUPPORTS YOU EVERY SINGLE DAY.

>> Reporter: KPBS NEWS.

>> THAT'S A GREAT STORY.

HERE IS A LOOK AT WHAT WE'RE WORKING ON FOR YOU TOMORROW ON THE KPBS NEWSROOM.
