DESCRIPTION:Fault Lines and Indybay present an evening of anti-gentrification 
 entertainment & education featuring a free screening of the documentary

 of the Defend Bayview Hunter’s Point coalition.\n\nWhen: 8pm (sharp), 
 Wednesday August 16th \nWhere: Station 40, 3030 B 16th St (at Mission St, 
 across from BART)\nPrice: Free!\n\nDetails:\nBoom: The Sound of 
 Eviction—(Directed by Francine Cavanaugh, A. Mark Liiv, and Adams Wood) 
 By turns humorous and scathing, this potent social critique explores the 
 effects of the recent Dot-com boom and bust on community displacement and 
 gentrification in the San Francisco Bay Area, with a focus on the Latino 
 Mission District. Features interviews with dot-com workers, developers, the 
 Mayor, and the community that challenged their new economic order. Here’s 
 what the LA Times said about Boom: “Witty, poignant and impassioned . . . 
 implications for every big city in America.” Co-director A. Mark Liiv 
 will be present for Q & A (www.boomthemovie.org).  \n\nLupe Arreola from 
 St. Peters Housing Committe will be talking about the roots of 
 gentrification in San Francisco, and about the current causes of 
 gentrification in the Mission District (and other neighborhoods). Lupe will 
 also talk about how through Mission Anti-Displacement Coalition—which is 
 featured in the movie—anti-gentrification advocates were able to get a 
 moratorium on market rate housing that will be in effect until 
 2007.\n\nDefend Bayview-Hunters Point is a broad grassroots coalition of 
 long-time BVHP community, environmental, civil rights leaders and 
 organizations, tenants, small neighborhood businesses, and homeowners 
 working for the betterment of the community. Members of this coalition will 
 be discussing their plan to stop the Redevelopment Scam in BVHP.
