The Headliners this week: Aston's New Coat: Aston Martin is ditching the green for Monaco. They're running a trippy, color-shifting "From Rock to Racetrack" livery. Leclerc Bags the Secured Bag: Charles locked in a massive Ferrari extension—rumored at €50M a year. He's officially chasing down Schumi's record for most Ferrari starts. The 2027 Engine Mess: The F1 Commission is stuck. The new engine ideas need bigger fuel tanks, but the current chassis can't fit them. The backup plan? Literally making some races shorter so cars need less fuel. Wild. Quick Hits & Garage Gossip Rule Tweaks: Teams get an extra winter testing day next year. Also, the FIA is clamping down on teams using old car tests to sneakily prep for upcoming tracks. Lowriders & Luxury EVs: Lewis Hamilton has been cruising SoCal in a custom '84 Buick Regal lowrider. Meanwhile, Ferrari dropped "Luce"—a 1,000+ hp electric hyper-GT designed by Jony Ive that costs a casual $640k. Tech & Rumors: Banning the rumored Mercedes engine trick, Honda's unexpected power gains, and what the heck is going on with ADUO? Plus, Williams targeting 2030 for a title comeback, and BYD trying to break into the paddock. Monaco Preview Let's honest—last year gave us exactly one overtake.

Welcome to Art is Awesome, the show where we talk with an artist or art worker with a connection to the San Francisco Bay Area.  This week, Emily welcomes Abram Jackson, the Director of Interpretation at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, to talk about his work making museum exhibitions more inclusive and equitable. Abram came to the role through an unexpected path — he was a teacher and dean specializing in ethnic studies at the Bay School when a student's mother asked him to review an audio tour for inclusive language. He fell in love with the work and joined the de Young full-time in 2022. In his role, he reads exhibition labels through an equity lens, a practice he traces back to his very first edit on the Soul of a Nation show, where he revised the description of Fred Hampton's death to accurately name the role of COINTELPRO. The conversation also covers an upcoming Lowrider Culture Celebration at the de Young on June 6th, honoring artist Rose B. Simpson's Lexicon — rebuilt classic cars painted like pottery — planned in partnership with three women lowrider community leaders: Angel Romero, Ruby Ramirez, and Vera Majano. The free public event includes a lowrider exhibit, a screening of the documentary Los Dueños, a DJ, and family art-making activities. About Abram Jackson: Abram Jackson is the inaugural Director of Interpretation at the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco. Jackson utilizes ethnic studies theories and DEIA practices in partnership with staff to incorporate more inclusive narratives into didactics. Jackson holds a Master of Arts in Ethnic Studies from San Francisco State University and a Master of Teaching in Social Studies from the University of Southern California. Jackson has fifteen years of administrative and teaching experience at the high school level, including seven at The Bay School of San Francisco as a humanities teacher and junior class dean, adjunct lecturer at San Francisco State University and at education programs for incarcerated people in California.  Connect with Abram:  LinkedIn Profile Follow Abram on Instagram:  @Interpreting_Abram For Details About The Lowrider Culture Celebration on June 6 at the de Young - CLICK HERE Learn More About Rose B.

Lowriders have long turned city streets into moving works of art. Now, a new exhibit at the Smithsonian Institution is tracing the history of lowriding from its roots in Chicano communities to its influence on art and activism. Anthea Hartig, director of the National Museum of American History, talks about perhaps the most famous lowrider of all time, "Gypsy Rose." Then, in 1939, a Black aviator named Chauncey Spencer flew in a fragile biplane from Chicago to Washington, D.C., to advocate for Black representation among military pilots. Smithsonian curator Joseph Abel tells the story of that journey and the impact it made.See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
