San Francisco Social Movement History Walking Tour

Nearly all social movements -- from Manifest Destiny westward emigration, the Mormon hegira, Black Power, the United Nations, LGBT liberation, food autonomy, and now on to Occupy Wall Street and Stop Bay Area Displacement -- are at bottom about creating security in geography. Come along on a walking tour of several San Francisco social movements that does more than chronicle the travails of humanity, but uncovers a thrilling social philosophy which originated in 1879 San Francisco, and holds astonishing relevance today for those wishing to live the next economy.
