KALW's Hear Here community storytelling project travels to neighborhood libraries to capture these stories and snapshots of life in Oakland and San Francisco. Last year, Hear Here set up shop in the Golden Gate branch of the Oakland Public library to talk to local residents about work. They heard this story from Regina Tolbert.
Listen to the full story above. This story originally aired on July 24, 2012.
