  1. Lifelong activist, organizer and educator Denise Oliver-Vélez has died at the age of 78.

    She was a central figure in the civil rights movements of the 1960s and 1970s and was the first woman elected to the Young Lords Central Committee, a radical Puerto Rican human rights group modeled on the Black Panther Party, which Oliver-Vélez was also a member of. She later became the first Black female program director in public radio and taught at SUNY New Paltz.

  2. RIP to former 49ers *and* former Oakland Raider, Aldon Smith. He played a key role on the one special Raiders team I got to see make a miracle playoff run back in 2016. He had a short tenure with us, but I remembered him being a total beast off the edge for a brief moment there. Rest up, Aldon. Thanks for the memories. #nfl2026 #restinpower #football
