♪ [thinking] mexican spices? ♪ [thinking] nacho cheese sauce? they don't want these coming out. who's they? the burger people. they! they! nacho fries, now serving at a taco bell near you. [bong!] ( robin ) there are a lot of abandoned boats off the coast of marin county and tax payers are the ones paying to remove them. kron 4's stanley roberts explains in this edition of people behaving badly. sheriff's department, if you're on here lets us know this is an abandoned tug boat anchored in richardson bay just of the coast of sausalito in marin county,the boat has been stripped of anything of

value so it's basically a giant floating pile of junk that as you can see with the water inside the engine room it's slowly taking on water so why are marin county residents not crying foul it's a situation of out of sight out of mind shoreline or the homes in belvedere where the docks get crashed into you see a green tug you can't see what's on the back deck you can't see the loose debris and when you work out here we see these vessels sink on a frequent basis this is deputy kate dahlberg and this is her partner deputy white ...they are assigned to the marin county sheriff's office marine patrol..they patrol richardson bay looking for unsafe and abandoned boats, a boat gets tagged by the sheriffs office and after 10 day if no one claims the boats it's removed at taxpayers expensethe cost to remove the tugboat will be at a minimum of 20 thousand dollars and guess what we were advised that of at least two tugs that are actually bigger than the one we are standing are incoming from outside counties since there are absolutely no regulations in richardson bay it's basically the wild wild west on the water ...and all the sheriff can do is take a boat out of play if it's deemed

unsafe but the problem is deeper than just a bunch of abandoned boats, listen to jimi mcintosh one of the anchor-out boat owners who is playing by the rules a lot of them don't have power a lot of them don't have sewage a lot of them don't have your necessary utilities to survive on the water so they are throwing stuff overboard so there are approximately, 200 boats in richardson bay, the sheriff's office estimate more than half of the boats are not seaworthy for reasons such as holes in the boat .. some are slowly taking on water or have loose debris littering the deck this is the love shack and kim lives aboard... listen to our conversation (so this doesn't actually work) it does work it has a minor problem right now but i'm working on it getting it going (what's the minor problem) right now the fuel pump) fuel pump ( how long as the fuel pump been out) three years to get back and forth they use dinghies how long you been out here (10 years) and you don't have a paddle no and i don't want one either there is more to this, a whole lot

more which we will explore in an upcoming edition of people behaving badly in marin county stanley roberts kron 4 news (robin)coming up on the kron four morning news... meet a bay area activist who co- founded 'black lives matter' .. a social justice movement that has spread across the nation... that's next in today's hidden history.

feeling like what was happening not only shouldn't be happening, but we also wanted to make sure people were doing something about it" "in this new political age, what i'm really heartened by, is that is not just black lives matter in the street. that it's alot of other people who realize how intertwined our futures are. when this current administration tries to ban muslims." "when we see that this current administration is really condoning violence against women we saw a million women take to the streets of washington d.c. and millions more all around the world to say, we're not taking that anymore.. and so i love seeing all these tthings converge because that is really how change happens."and she answers critics of the 'black lives matter' movement this way:"its not to say black lives are more important. it's to say we want to get to a

place where all lives do matter ... if we want to get to a place where we are realizing what we know is the american dream and we have a lot of work to do to get there." ( robin ) alicia garza says, while some on the 'right" have called them 'terrorists - 'black lives matter" has never advocated violence. this movement is now a part of america's civil rights history - joining dr. king, the black panther party and more .. a fact which she calls "humbling".. garza is now writing a book on how to build social movements... please join us this saturday at 9-pm, when we talk more about our 'hidden history' ... in a half hour special, right here on kron four.

( darya ) the bay area has long been a center for activism ... whether on local matters or social justice issues around the nation.( james ) the historic five- month long student strike at s-f state for ethnic studies .. the black panther party's birth in oakland ... and now our pam moore introduces us to another movement leader in this morning's hidden history.

"i'm teaching women race and class and race resistance studies. it is angela davis' old class. what is that like? it's intimidating." alicia garza teaches resistance at s- f state .. where she received her masters degree... it is probably fitting, since she, opal tometi and patrisse cullors are the three women who co-founded 'black lives matter' .. a social justice movement that has spread across the nation. they say they wanted to do something constructive, after the 2013 acquittal of neighborhood watchman george zimmerman.. in the killing of young trayvon martin .. upset by the acquittal.. alicia wrote a letter about her love for her people.. posted it on social media .. they added the three word hashtag - black lives matter..

the phrase captured the moment and took off "i did not think that for one second george zimmerman would walk free""the next day when i saw that post had gone viral and patrisse putting a hashtag in front of it, had allowed people to be able to follow a conversation .. she and i realized there was a lot of need and energy that we weren't the only people feeling like what was happening not only shouldn't be happening, but we also wanted to make sure people were doing something about it" "in this new political age, what i'm really heartened by, is that is not just black lives matter in the street. that it's alot of other people who realize how intertwined our futures are. when this current administration tries to ban muslims." "when we see that this current administration is violence against women we saw a million women take to the streets of washington d.c. and millions more all around the world to say, we're not

taking that anymore.. and so i love seeing all these tthings converge because that is really how change happens."and she answers critics of the 'black lives matter' movement this way:"its not to say black lives are more important. it's to say we want to get to a place where all lives do matter ... if we want to get to a place where we are realizing what we know is the american dream and we have a lot of work to do to get there." ( darya ) alicia garza says that while some on the "right" have called them "terrorists"...
