DESCRIPTION:The 150th Anniversary Of The San Francisco Chronicle, Class Struggle And 
 Labor \nThis year is the 150th anniversary of the San Francisco Chronicle. 
 It has played an important role in the political and economic history of 
 San Francisco in the development of San Francisco from the early "big four" 
 multi-millionaires Stanford, Crocker, Hopkins and Huntington to the media 
 tech moguls who now manipulate politics and development in San Francisco 
 including the ethnic cleansing "redevelopment" of African Americans and 
 Latinos and the removal of the working class and poor from San Francisco. 
 The paper's owners in the past and present have also had a war against the 
 workers at the San Francisco Chronicle. The printers union has been busted 
 by outsourcing and the attacks continue on union workers at the paper. We 
 will look at the lessons of the 1994 San Francisco Chronicle 11 day 
 newspaper strike.\nInitial Speakers:\nDr. Gray Brechin is a historical 
 geographer, author of "Imperial San Francisco." He is currently a visiting 
 scholar in the U.C. Berkeley Department of Geography and founder and 
 project scholar of the Living New Deal Project. He is one of the leading 
 experts in the history and role of the San Francisco Chronicle in San 
 Francisco and California.\nJohn Holmes is a retired member of the CWA Media 
 Workers and a member of the Typographers Union unit who was active during 
 the 1994 strike.\n Sponsored by FUUS and Labor Video Project \n For more
