DESCRIPTION:Come along on a FREE walking tour trekking through San Francisco's Gold 
 Rush Century--the 19th. The walk walks back in time--1898 to 
 1804--uncovering the sources of THE AMERICAN DREAM as a meme and culture, 
 which, the walk's narrative posits, resides in the mythos of The 
 Frontier.\n\nThe Frontier as a mythos is the notion of a hard-won paradise 
 regained, of an Eden where there is no boss, no landlord, no subjugator. 
 Yet this fantasyland requires constantly excluding others from the 
 reality-land that has been settled by the pioneer. That exclusion of others 
 is often violent and always detrimental to others in an equality of 
 opportunity once the seeming infinitude of the Earth is reduced to "Nowhere 
 else to go except into the landowner's loving embrace."\n\nStill, the walk 
 argues, the Frontier in all its social wholesomeness can be rediscovered if 
 only the economic value of land itself is treated as a commonwealth. 
 \n\nTwo hours, half a mile, US history turned on its head, and Voila'! the 
 Frontier restored.\n
