DESCRIPTION:Come hear notorious walking tour guide David Giesen bring the heat to 
 Valencia. Building on his "15 column inches of fame" in the November issue 
 of San Francisco magazine (see the link below), Giesen goes guided missile 
 on landlordism in this edition of his "conversation with the street" (what 
 others call his "calle and response" style of political action).\n\nIn this 
 episode, Giesen challenges American do-gooders to stand in alliance with 
 those people of Palestine and Israel whose humanity has been oppressed by 
 those social mores and laws which require them to pay land rent to private 
 landlords. Americans who pay land rent to private interests are similarly 
 oppressed. Where the people as a whole are portrayed as sovereign, land 
 rent belongs to the people as a whole, not to interloping sovereign 
 would-bes. \n\nIndeed, it is land rent, paid by all occupants of the land, 
 that properly funds the social programs of a nation or people. And, 
 needless to say, this revenue ought to be allocated fairly, meaning in a 
 fashion tantamount to democratic republicanism.\n\nCome discuss how San 
 Francisco's rent-racked, displaced, evicted, time-strapped citizenry find 
 common cause with the oppressed in Palestine and Israel precisely over the 
 question of, "To whom does the land rent we pay ultimately go?"\n
