DESCRIPTION:It's kinda weird when you think of it in a straight up commonsense way that 
 some people pay other people for mere "right" to use the Earth. At least 
 non-human animals make no lie of it, for they compete hour by hour, year by 
 year with other species for a place in the sun...or in the ocean depths. 
 But humanity, presumably in hope of preserving the peace (and poverty), 
 agrees to allow some folks to buy the right from some people to exclude all 
 the people from a particular part of the planet . . . as though planet 
 Earth isn't everyone's birthright.\n\nWhat's your justification for such 
 nonsense? \n\nLet's break that nonsense down. There are white folks 
 charging black and brown and what-have-you folk to use the Earth. And 
 visa-versa. And straights charging queer folk to use the Earth. And 
 visa-versa. And gosh darn it, Democrats and other communists charging the 
 righteous to use the Earth. And visa-versa. But most egregious of all in 
 this 
 vacuous-when-it-comes-to-the-economics-of-MotherEarth-meets-Womens-History-Month 
 is that 86% of women pay a male for right of use of, uh huh, Mother Earth. 
 Now ain't that a ridiculous sight!\n\nCome along on a walking tour--25 
 years and running--that blasts that nonsense to smithereens. It's the story 
 of 11 social movements' intersections with San Francisco, and how each and 
 every one of them was at base the story of alienation from land/location by 
 a dominating demographic.\n\nHey, it's the end of fractious identity 
 politics when everybody has to pay everybody else for the bit of Earth they 
 want to call theirs. Laugh in Trump's face when he says he gets even a dime 
 for the land under his gilded willy tower. But watch out, it's visa-versa 
 when it comes to you and your little piece of paradise.\n\nIn three hours 
 of non-stop thinking you'll walk away with San Francisco's Big Idea in your 
 head. And a challenge to do something about it.\n
