CALVIN WELCH and JOE O'DONOGHUE:
"HOW DID WE GET HERE? - A HISTORICAL LOOK AT SAN FRANCISCO HOUSING AND LAND USE BATTLES FROM THE 1970'S FORWARD"
Housing and Land Use Seminar Series - Last Thursday of each month
New College of California, 777 Valencia Street, S.F.
Free
Join San Francisco legends Calvin Welch and Joe O'Donoghue for a community workshop in the Housing and Land Use Seminar Series sponsored by the San Francisco Green Party and the Center for Education and Social Action at New College of California.
This monthly series is a great opportunity to educate yourself, share your thoughts, and get involved with local advocacy groups trying to create a better San Francisco. The series takes place on the last Thursday of each month at New College of California, located at 777 Valencia Street.
Our second workshop on March 25 features two long-time participants in San Francisco housing and land use issues, Calvin Welch and Joe O'Donoghue, in a discussion entitled, “San Francisco Housing and Use Battles, a historical review from the 1970's to the present.” The workshop will be moderated by AnMarie Rodgers, a planner in San Francisco's citywide planning department. Audience questions and involvement will be encouraged.
The seminar series is designed to include a diverse range of topics and speakers--SF Supervisors, activists, attorneys, developers, nonprofit builders and city planners--policymakers and advocates from all sides of our housing and development battles. Here’s a chance for you to consider diverse, frequently contradictory opinions, and make up your own mind on important issues facing the city. The seminars should prove informative, lively and entertaining. For more information see: http://www.sfgreenparty.org/workinggroups/indivworkgroup.gem?wgidx=13&action=homepage
Free and open to the public.

SCREENING OF "SAFETY ORANGE"
With filmmaker JIM DAVIS
New College Theater, 777 Valencia Street, S.F.
Free
This film shows how the burgeoning criminal justice system has transformed our society. Join filmmaker Jim Davis for a showing of Safety Orange.
Safety Orange (60 minutes) ~ Jim Davis / Juliana Fredman
Safety Orange examines how the architecture of public schools has come to
mirror that of the prison over the last thirty years. The film outlines how
the expanding criminal justice system has spilled over from the prison into
society generally, for some as irrational fear of crime and persecution and
for others a very real experience of repression at the hands of the state.
The film features interviews with Ruth Wilson Gilmore, Rose Braz, Mike Davis
(City of Quartz), and Peter Linebaugh (The Many-Headed Hydra).
James Davis is a filmmaker who lives in New York. Juliana Fredman lives in New York
and this is her first film.
Sponsored by the Activism and Social Change MA Emphasis and Media Studies MA Program at New College of California. For more information: Jon Garfield, 415-437-3425, jon [at] newcollege.edu .
