DESCRIPTION:May Day! May Day! The Dark Side of SF Tech and Legacies of the Left - Two 
 Authors Read\n\nRichard A. Walker will read from his new book Pictures of a 
 Gone City: Tech and the Dark Side of Prosperity in the San Francisco Bay 
 Area. Walker is professor emeritus of geography at the University of 
 California. He has written on a diverse range of topics in economic, urban, 
 and environmental geography. He is coauthor of The Capitalist Imperative 
 (1989) and The New Social Economy (1992) and has written extensively on 
 California, including The Conquest of Bread (2004), The Country in the City 
 (2007) and The Atlas of California (2013). Walker is currently director of 
 the Living New Deal Project, whose purpose is to inventory all New Deal 
 public works sites in the United States and recover the lost memory of 
 government investment for the good of all.\n\nPhil Cohen reads from his 
 book Archive That Comrade! Left Legacies and the Counter Culture of 
 Remembrance. Cohen played a key role in the London counterculture scene of 
 the 1960s. As “Dr. John” he was the public face of the London street 
 commune movement and the occupation of 144 Piccadilly, an event that 
 briefly hit the world’s headlines in July 1969. He subsequently became an 
 urban ethnographer, and for the past forty years he has been involved with 
 working-class communities in East London documenting the impact of 
 structural and demographic change on their livelihoods, lifestyles, and 
 life stories. Currently he is research director of LivingMaps, a network of 
 activists, artists, and academics developing a creative and critical 
 approach to social mapping. He is also professor emeritus at the University 
 of East London and a research fellow of the Young Foundation.\n
