Unflappable. Fair. A mentor. The trailblazing journalist Belva Davis carried all of these traits, according to friends and colleagues, as they remembered the first Black woman hired as a television reporter on the west coast in the days following her death. Davis entered television news in the 1960s, when the industry was dominated by white men, making her presence on screens especially pioneering.

One of the most well-attended events in the history of the San Francisco Design Center Galleria took place on June 9, 2025, when KQED held its annual Taste & Sip event.

This summer, KQED's Climate Book Club is focusing on 'Climate Stewardship: Taking Collective Action to Protect California,' highlighting community efforts to address environmental challenges.
