As we approach the USA's 4th of July celebration, we reflect upon the substance of citizenship. Join an interactive walking tour that raises the consideration that citizenship without economic entitlement to land is dubious affiliation with the nation.

"Six Stellar San Franciscans" treks along the city's American advent original shoreline to reveal Fog City's 1879 "Big Idea" that the economic value of the USA should be utterly socialized in order to make landlords of us all. From the idea's main proponent, Henry George, to Jose Rizal inspiring "the land for the people" movement in the Philippines, to Kate Kennedy advocating for women sharing in the commonwealth of the nation, to Sun Yat-sen naming land values as the peoples', to William Leidesdorff extending land enfranchisement to Blacks, to the benevolent problematic would-be tyrannny of Joshua Norton, this FREE walking tour presents the case for ending private title to "location, location, location" values.
