>> today is the first day that we can actually walk into a retail establishment and actually shop. >> i'm very happy to see our customers. >> i'm so happy for the retailers, and i hope this increases business for them. >> open for business. the doors are back open at stores in san francisco. god afternoon. thank you for joining us. >> indoor shopping is back. and that means malls and neighborhood shops can welcome customers again. chris has nor. >> reporter: good afternoon. it feels pretty good to be inside a store. and mayor breed was here, just for fun. she went shopping, bought some dominos. it's her way of encouraging shoppers to come back and help these businesses back on their feet. now, malls reopened as well. i visited one this morning. and whether boutique or big box, what i was sensing from people, a cautious optimism.

>> i want to see what i'm buying. >> reporter: the mayor hoping san francisco shoppers are feeling the same way, as stores reopen. breed went for a lunchtime stroll with her supervisor. >> we need to support the ones that are here. we need to, you know, folks have gotten into the habit of ordering online, ordering from amazon. you really need to go out and patronize your local business. >> reporter: that's what nancy is hoping for, after struggling through months of shelter in place. >> i'm really excited that the kids know now, like there's, you know, different types of shopping techniques when they come in. so they're not touching everything like they used to. >> reporter: it's not just boutique shops, malls are now open, too. i went to stonestown galleria to see what that was like. the first thing you will notice is there are two guards here. i walk over here, obviously hand sanitizer right away. even for me, this is the first time i'm going to be in a store, in a mall in a long time. this is foot locker.

hand sanitizers are everywhere. but you can actually browse inside. the mall was fa from crowded when doors opened. almost empty, in fact. but you did see a lot of this. cleaning and sanitizing. seating was also rearranged for social distancing. and the shoppers i talked to wanted to go in and without without lingering. >> i was going to exchange some shoes i bought online. >> reporter: the mayor wants to remind everyone covid-19 is still here, and there is no back to normal. >> it's important we try to let people open up, move around, do the things we do. but get people comfortable doing it with a mask and the hand washing and everything else. >> reporter: all right. so just in the store, you can sense that it's new normal. there's hand sanitizers everywhere. there's a barrier to cash. if you pick up everything from the shelf, you have to get it

sanitized. if you're a shopper, pack your patience. chris reyes for "abc7 news." >> chris, i know you went to stonestown. the mall is open, but how about the stores, were they all open? >> reporter: i was there, a lot of the stores were still shut. so if you are going to go to the malls, make sure that you check if there are reduced hours. make sure that store in that particular mall is opened. the doors are open at the mall, but all the different stores have different policies. so that's something to remember if you are shopping. again, support your loek at businesses. chris reyes for "abc7 news." >> super important advice. thanks, chris. northern california's largest mall right here in the bay area is back open for business, as well. westfield valley fair in santa clara opened this morning. 72 of the mall's nearly 200 stores are open. some are allowing shopping by appointment. the food court is open but no seating. employees are required to

complete a wellness check. hand sanitizing stations have been placed with reminders about social distancing. the governor is are not out of the woods. he mentioned 13 count yils ies concern, but only nine are of importance, which have increased hospitalizations or lack of hospital space. they've been targeted by the state for additional assistance. the governor was asked if the government is allowing counties to reopen too quickly. >> as we reopen, we're going to see an increase in the total number of cases. it's our capacity to address that, that is so foundational. >> the governor pointed out that even though a lot of people were out over the memorial day weekend, the rate of new cases has remained stable. hospitalizations are increasing at about 4.3% on average, and there was no increase in the

number of intensive care admissions over the past two weeks. the food and drug administration has ordered hospitals to stop using hydroxychloroquine to treat covid-19. the fda pulled its emergency authorization. recent studies show that not only is it ineffective, but it has potentially serious side effects, including heart problems. let's go to the south bay now and the calls for reform in bay area police departments. three major police yuns have recommended a set of changes. chris nguyen has that story. >> reporter: three of california's biggest police unions have introduced reform agenda with the goal of developing greater trust between officers and the community. >> i had calls from all over the nation, a lot here in california in support of us taking a stance and moving forward in talking about concrete steps, not only on a state level and here in san jose, but also on a national level. >> reporter: san jose and san

francisco joined los angeles in calling for a national use of force standard, in addition to creating a national database of former police officers fired for gross misconduct. the goal, to also root out any racist individual from their ranks. >> we need to admit that, identify them, and make sure they don't join. or if they're here, make sure that we show them the way out. >> reporter: today, state attorney general javier basare called for legislation to desert fie police officers for serious misconduct. >> we have moved farther and in some cases faster than many other jurisdictions in trying to change the way we do public safety. >> reporter: some of these proposals aren't new, but have gained traction in recent weeks following the defendant of george floyd in minneapolis. >> it is impossible to watch that. it's impossible to think about that. and not say, we have to do something dramatic. >> reporter: community leaders

say the real work comes when people that know the system sit down and try to change it. >> there are a lot of bureaucracies that won't go away and barriers that are built into the process. so be patient with the process. government is imperfect, but keep the pressure on the politicians to get it done. >> reporter many are waiting to see what happens next. >> people realize that we're sincere for change here. and we're ready to roll up our sleeves and get to work. >> reporter: chris nguyen, "abc7 news." and the university of california voted to endorse a state amendment to repeal prop 209, which banned affirmative action. the amendment approved 24 years ago banned preferential treatment based on sexual orientation. if passes, it will go on to the november ballot. today, the supreme court handed down a landmark ruling to protect lbgtq people at work. the court ruled a key provision of the civil rights act of 1964

protects gay, lesbian and transgender people from workplace discrimination. it passed with a 6-3 majority. there are an estimated 8.1 million lbgt workers. >> the supreme court rejected the trump administration's -- the justices left in place that limits police cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. now to that wild case of cyber stalking. six former ebay employees, five from here in the bay area, are facing federal charges in connection with leading a campaign targeting a massachusetts couple critical of ebay. melanie woodrow has the story. >> reporter: the cyber stalking campaign began in august of 2019. federal prosecutors say six now former ebay employees,

emotionally and psychologically terrorized a massachusetts couple. san jose resident james baugh directed others to harass the couple, as well as sending disturbing deliveries. >> fly larvae and live spiders, a box of live cockroaches, a sympathy wreath on the occasion of the death of a loved one, a book of advice on how to survive the death of a spouse. pornography nailed to their next door neighbors but in the couple's name. a halloween mask featuring the face of a bloody pig. and a pig fetus ordered but after inquiry by the supplier was never sent. >> reporter: one of the co-conspirators is a former police captain. the complaint baugh and others flew from california to

massachusetts to conduct surveillance on the couple. >> at one point, when several of the defendants feared that the police might trace the harassment case back to california, they compiled a list of people living in the santa clara area who they might be able to frame for the activity if needed. >> reporter: in a statement, ebay says as a result of an investigation with the systems from outside legal counsel, it terminated all involved employees in september of 2019. in part, writing, ebay apologizes to the affected individuals and sorry they were subjected to this. the former employees are facing conspiracy to commit cyber stalking and conspiracy to tamper with an investigation. melanie woodrow, "abc7 news." new developments with the golden state killer trial. the sacramento bee reports lawyers for joseph de'angelo think they'll have an agreement done to avoid the death penalty. he would plea guilty to 88

♪[ siren ] & doug give me your hand! i can save you... lots of money with liberty mutual! we customize your car insurance so you only pay for what you need! only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ best seller lists are certainly a reflection of the times right now. on amazon, four of the top five books deal with racism. at the top is "white fragility." the others are "how to be an anti-racist" and "me and white

supremacy" is fourth. and "the new jim crow" by michelle alexander is fifth. and the color of law forgotten history of how our government segregated america is also in the top ten. it's by bay area writer richard rothstein, who is joining us live right now. thank you, richard, for joining us today. >> thank you. >> so first off, tell us about your book. i know it explores the history of red lining. >> well, the book argues that the myth that we all share, but residential segregation, not only here in the bay area, but in every metropolitan area, is something we call de facto. it just happened by accident, it happened because people liked to live with each other or because of private bigotry or banks and real estate agents discriminating. what the book shows is that is largely untrue. of course, all those things happened, but the main reason that we're segregated here and everywhere else is because of very explicit government policy

at the federal, state, and local levels, that was designed to ensure that african-americans and whites could not live near one another in any metropolitan area in the country. the book describes many federal, state, and local policies that had the same in segregating. and if it were not for these policies, the bay area and other metropolitan areas in the country would not have the kind of segregation that we know today. we would be a much more integrated society. >> when you look at amazon and the best seller list, it's clear that this is a moment where people are trying to better understand these issues and issues around racism. why is your book resonating with so many. were you surprised to see it up there in the top ten? >> i was certainly surprised but i can understand why. the reason we're having these problems and have had them for many, many years of police abuse and discrimination against african-americans is precisely because of this segregation that we have created. if we weren't segregating the

most disadvantaged people, african-americans in particular, in single neighborhoods, the police would not behave like an occupying colonial force. and so the segregation creates the environment where the police develop this abusive policy, very much like colonial occupying forces elsewhere in the world. and unless we do something about residential segregation, we're not going to ever be able to reform the police adequately. of course we can enact reforms of police conduct and certainly they would continue to be discrimination or continue to be discrimination if we're not so segregated. but the fact that we've concentrated african-americans in one place by explicit federal policy, state and local policy, as well, creates the underlying conditions for this kind of abusive behavior on the part of

policing. that's why people are interested in learning how we came to be so segregated. >> right. and that gets to my next question. how can looking at these laws, like red lining and these laws help us understand systemic raci racism, and the issues we are facing today around race? >> yes. the policies, the explicit poll sils of red lining and other policies that enacted segregation no longer are in effect. but the consequences endure to this day. so for example, in the bay area, the federal housing administration created suburbs, subdivisions, places like west lake and daley city, san leandro on the east bay, created subdivisions for whites only and prohibited african-americans from moving into them. the developers of these subdivisions of west lake and daley city for example, the

developers of these subdivisions couldn't do them without federal support. no bank would lend them the money to create these subdivisions. they had to go to the federal government -- excuse me. >> bless you. >> sorry. allergy season. >> i just want to ask you, we have a couple more seconds here, what your thoughts are on this campaign, this blackout to buy books by black authors right now. i know that's a big campaign. your thoughts on that? >> well, i'm in favor of it. people should buy books from black authors. i'm delighted that people are learning about segregation from me, as well. but i'm certainly not opposed to buying books by black authors and people need to understand all kinds of aspects of racial segregation and oppression not just of the aspects that i talk about. >> absolutely. all right. richard rothstein, author of "the color of law," thank you for joining us. appreciate it. >> thank you. there are calls on social

media this week to support black rioters. the post calls for book -- black writers. the goal is to blackout best seller lists with black voices. all right. we're kicking off another workweek. so let's talk about the weather. drew tuma has the latest. drew? >> yeah, hi, ama. today, breezy but temperatures are on the comfy side. we have one more day of those temperatures staying in check and off to the races by wednesday. we get much warmer weather moving in. live doppler 7 with satellite showing you we have a blend of some high clouds and some fog right now. in fact, the tam cam will stake you outside. you can see a little fog moving in over twin peaks in the city. otherwise, dealing with serus clouds overhead. winds, 35 miles per hour right now in oakland. 33 in the city, 32 in nevado. the key is wind direction.

it's been consistent, coming off the ocean water, that onshore breeze, keeping temperatures on the cool side for mid june. so only 64 in the city right now. 75 in the south bay. it's windy in oakland, with a temperature of 72. 77 in santa rosa. and the warmest spot we have on the map right now is 83 degrees right now in brentwood. that's not all that hot this time of year. so overnight tonight, we'll keep that blend of stars and clouds out there. numbers in the upper 40s to mid 50s over the next 12 hours. tomorrow, we'll begin the morning with cloud cover, especially closer to the coastline. throughout the day, we lose the marine layer and the clouds, so it is a brighter day. total sunshine in the afternoon. but we will keep that breeze again. that's going to keep temperatures in check for one more day. so highs tomorrow, very similar to where we are right now. about 66 in the city. 76 the high in san jose. 74 in oakland.

81 in santa rosa. the same in concord. and 84 the high in antioch. then much warmer on wednesday. future tracker temperatures showing you we're back into the 90s, and our hottest spots by wednesday afternoon. thursday, it's even warmer. thursday is the hottest day we have all week. looks like we'll get close to 100 degrees in our hottest spots. 70s to widespread low 90s around the bayshoreline. as we warm up, we have a fire weather watch that will go in effect late tomorrow night. the combination of the warmer weather and those dry winds out of the north will create fire danger. so we will be on watch the next several days. we've already seen brush fires over the past couple of weeks. that is something that is of concern when we have warmer weather headed our way. so the accuweather seven-day forecast. breezy tomorrow. there's the warmer weather moving in midweek on wednesday. it is just hot thursday and into

friday. summer officially begins on saturday at 2:43 in the afternoon. it stays warm. sunny for water's day. and you can see liz and ama, monday, the fog returns. but temperatures still slightly above average. 60s on the coast. low 80s around the bay. and low 90s inland. so we'll see a pretty good stretch of warm weather coming our way starting on wednesday. >> love your dad graphic there, drew. all right. thanks, drew. caught on camera. more fallout after a i'm kent coloma, it's my job to make sure all the packages that go out today get delivered. there are people who can only get food from amazon. when you come into work, that's what drives you. my little one, i would say he's definitely proud of me. every time he sees the blue prime trucks, he says, "daddy, there's your people!" i know every single one of us is here busting as hard as we can go every day to make sure these packages get delivered.

i'm asking you if this is your property. >> why are you asking? >> because it's private property, sir. >> are you defacing private property? >> you may have seen this video from over the weekend of a white woman confronting a black man writing black lives matter in chalk outside of this home. the couple has since apologized but there are new details on the incident today. our reporter spoke to james again today. he says he's willing to fordwgi the couple and speak to them in person. but that hasn't happened yet. >> beautiful day. >> reporter: we met davis at his office. this local park is his safe haven where he works as a dog walker and reflects. >> are you defacing private property? >> well, apparently i have a platform now. >> reporter: a lot has changed since last tuesday, when he was

confronted by residents lisa alexander and robert larkins for stencilling "black lives matter" with chalk on what turned out to be his property. since the video went viral, alexander, the ceo of la face skin products, lost her account with birch box, and issued this apology. >> what's your name, sir? >> reporter: the man in the video, robert larkins, was terminated by raymond james. a day before that, he issued an apology, and this is the first time he sees it. >> i called the neighborhood police watch. it was wrong and i'm sorry for treating him with disrespect. >> reporter: what do you think about that? >> wow, that's, umm, about as much of a mea kulpa as you can expect. i would be willing to talk to him. if he expresses that to me in person, i will forgive both of them. >> reporter: we're seeing change in this neighborhood. two days ago, the retaining wall

looked like this. now fast forward to today. james's house has become a canvas for the black lives matter movement. the owner of the downstairs of this house says he appreciates the community's support, and doesn't know alexander, who alleges in this video that she knew the owner of this house, and questioned him living there. >> where is it? there it is. we're also activists. >> reporter: he says there are many lessons to be learned, including -- >> love thy neighbor as you would love thine self. i believe that's the truth. >> great to see the community coming together like that. open for business. inside a gym that's ready to reopen. the precautions they're taking and what you need to know before you work out. plus -- >> i'm wayne freedman in marin county. a nonprofit that takes food, which might otherwise have been

build a better bay area, for a safe and secure future. this is "abc7 news." >> as the bay area opens for business, we're here to help you navigate the new rules and new realities. today, we got a private tour of america barbell club gym. dustin dorsey spoke with the oner, as the gym waits for county clearance to restart operations. ♪ >> overnight, we've gone from, you know, a place to get a

workout to we're automatically dirty and it's we're infested with this virus or something. and, you know, some of the guidelines that have been thrown around, both from our industry and outside of the industry are interesting and even ridiculous in some cases. so we're getting close to reopening. santa clara county is tough. i'm probably more anxious than excited. it's going to be different, and it's a walk into the unknown. >> my name is jerry mccaul, i'm the owner and operator of american barbell clubs here in silicon valley. and i've been at this for 38 years. and it's been both rewarding and it's been very difficult. i've received emails and they wanted me to open six months ago and defy all the rules. i would hate to tangle with this

virus, but i will be in my club. i'm going to come forward and show that i'm out here doing this. i think with some of the preventative measures we're asked to do that we can probably manage this. one of the safety precautions we took around the club, dustin, was to put signage on every other cardio piece here in our cardio areas. we're going to want to see a mask. when you walk in and out of the club, and a lot of points in between, this idea that you're going to be asphyxiated from wearing masks is nonsensical. right here in front of you, we have these little stands that we put together, and we'll have a roll towel and our spray disinfectant on them. this is in addition to every roll towel dispenser we have around the club. we're adding more. the recommendations, which i'm thankful for, you know, we'll abide which a lot of them. some of them are just unmanageable. a reservation system.

i mean, you can't do that. some of the club chains, yeah, we're going to be open for an hour, and close every hour for cleaning. this sort of thing. you have fights at your front door. well, let people manage it. you come into any of my clubs, they're big, full of equipment. that's now an advantage. we don't want to micromanage people too heavily. we want to let people's adult instincts take over, but we will keep an eye on things. a lot of this is up to you. bring a mask. make sure you have a mask and perhaps begin to think that a fitness regimen is a serious thing to undertake. as we can see what this virus has done. so come on back. >> all right. joining us now is dr. patel to talk with us about this. hi, dr. pa tell, how are you? >> i'm great, how are you? >> great. thanks for joining us. what would someone do to make sure that they're safe at the

gym? >> well, the first thing anybody has to do is understand how many risk factors there are in a gym. so a gym is a breeding ground, even without a pandemic for germs. you're indoors, there's a lot of people, they're sweating and there's touching of so many different surfaces, equipment, it's really hard to keep track of all this. so it's prudent that people are paying attention to the gym themselves. and making sure that they're following all the guidelines, you know, encouraging mask wearing, touchless entry, everything you can think of. but people really have to take it upon themselves to keep themselves safe. bring their own towels, their own sanitizing wipes for the surfaces and hands and do everything they can. you can't assume the gym will do everything. >> what about wearing a mask? do you think it's appropriate and should someone wear a mask while working out? could it be harmful at all? >> i think it's absolutely important for people to wear a mask when they're going in and

out of the gym, when they're stretching and doing some light exercise. i think it's unreasonable to expect people to wear a mask during vigorous exercise. i saw this in a couple of press releases from gyms saying they're going to encourage people to wear a mask, but maybe not when it comes to vigorous exercise. here's the thing, we know that when people are exercising, they're panting, breathing hard. and all you do is expel more drop lets in the air. so that's something to think about. gyms should pay attention to their ventilation. maybe open a window or do something to get the air moving. >> how much riskier is it to work out inside versus joining a workout class outside? >> outside is always going to be safer. when you're indoors, you have everything i mentioned earlier. you not only have a people together but in that enclosed space for a longer amount of time. that's a risk factor with any

activity. so that's something -- i would say try to avoid it right now if you can. there's a study coming out in korea that showed a huge outbreak of cases where they went into a dance studio and people being in a fitness class for 50 minutes. >> interesting. i want to switch gears really fast, because you're encouraging people to donate blood. tell us how donating can help the covid response. >> oh, this is front and center going to be my public service announcement. yesterday was world blood donor day. we transfuse life-saving red blood cells into people every day. we had a huge shortage during the pandemic. then hospitals began their elective procedures again. the red cross and everyone is encouraging people to get out there and donate. and the red cross is now going to be testing people for covid-19 antibodies. so it's an additional reason to

go out there, donate and you can get a free screening. >> really good advice. thanks for joining us, as always. >> thank you. confrontations caught on camera. this one involves a woman we are the thrivers. women with metastatic breast cancer standing in the struggle. hustling through the hurt. asking for science not sorrys. our time for more time - has come. living longer is possible and proven in women taking kisqali plus fulvestrant or a nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor. kisqali is the only treatment in its class with proven overall survival results in 2 clinical trials. helping women live longer with hr+, her2- metastatic breast cancer. kisqali was also significantly more effective at delaying disease progression versus a nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor or fulvestrant alone. kisqali can cause lung problems or an abnormal heartbeat,

for the future. and there has never been a summer when it's mattered more. wherever you go, summer safely. get zero percent apr financing for up to five years on select models and exclusive lease offers. welcome back. time for the four at 4:00. more fallout over that video of a couple confronting the man who wrote black lives matter outside of their home. raymond james fired robert larkin, partner of lisa alexander, saying it has zero tolerance for discrimination of any kind. larkin seen there in the background. and lisa alexander confronts james, as he stencils the words outside a home. boast la both larkin and alexander have apologized. this is not the first video we're seeing. we're seeing several videos like

this happen where people get called out for confrontations. drew, what's your take? >> i mean, i know they have apologized, both him and his wife or partner. but if you do something racist, you're going to have consequences. when you film something, you have proof of what went down. could you imagine had this not been filmed and it was a he said/she said moment, how this may have played out differently. but if you're going to do something like this, there's going to be consequences. so it's not surprising this man has lost his job. >> chris, your take? >> yeah, i mean, drew said everything right there. any time you make these kind of comments, you have to be ready for the consequences of them. and this is what happened this time around. >> all right. let's move on to the next one. an argument over facemasks escalated when a woman coughed on another customer at a new york bagel shop.

>> alison goodbaum is the one being coughed on. she told an employee about her concern. the woman claimed that she had good antibodies and didn't need to wear a mask. so what if you do? that doesn't mean cough on somebody else. people just stop throwing your common sense out the window, stop -- people are not just -- they're just not being civil at this point. it's like, what have we done to get to this horrible point? just be good humans. drew, i feel a strong reaction from you. >> yeah, good antibodies? what is that? i'm not trusting anybody, what they say. just wear your mask. wear your mask! this is the number one thing we all have to do. it's the only way we can protect

ourselves right now and the people around us. so why are people still three months into this fighting this idea that they can go into an enclosed space without a mask, cough nonetheless, and then act like nobody is going to have a problem with that. >> it's not such a big deal to wear a mask. it doesn't really -- >> right. >> it's for the greater good. and if you look back at past pandemics, people wore masks. this is just what it is. so wear a mask. all right. six former ebay executives and employees face federal charges. this is crazy. authorities claim that the six harassed a massachusetts couple who published a news later that ebay executives viewed as critical of the company. the group conducted covert surveillance and sent them threatening messages and disturbing deliveries like a bloody pig mask, a funeral reith and all six were fired following
