Gay Inmates, L.A. Kitchen, Light Pollution, LAX Art

Gay Inmates

Reporter Val Zavala tours the K6G unit at the Los Angeles County Men's Central Jail and interviews gay, bisexual, and transgender inmates charged with nonviolent felonies to get a closer look at what happens behind bars.

L.A. Kitchen

The L.A. Kitchen is a new kind of charity; a social enterprise that creates jobs for previous foster care youth, trains former prison inmates, feeds the hungry and reduces food waste. It's an ambitious project headed by Robert Egger, the organization's eccentric president and a former night club owner. Reporter Derrick Shore spent a day at the L.A. Kitchen to discover just how Egger tackles some of the city's most challenging problems.

Light Pollution

The millions of city lights that blot out L.A.'s night sky don't just deprive us of star-gazing. A recent study found that all that light affects the chemistry of the night air. Judy Muller reports that it actually makes the region's air pollution worse.

LAX Art
