This week’s edition of Looking Back at the Week features articles, commentaries, columns, toons, and other work by San Diego Free Press regulars, irregulars, columnists, at-large contributors, and sourced writers on: elections in the South Bay, is a Dem really a Dem?, the TMD/Convadium/Citizens somethingoranother, Hillary vs Bernie, change we can believe in, those that fought for $15, Norma Hernandez, SDPD’s rape kit backlog, more South Bay election stuff and lots of other inspiring (and sometimes depressing), grassroots news & progressive views from San Diego’s friendly, neighborhood, all volunteer, slightly funky, community news site.
