Pro-War S.F. School Board Intends to Destroy Arnautoff mural The pro-war San Francisco Unified School District's Reflection and Action Working Group voted 12 to 1 to destroy Victor Arnautoff's outstanding, realistic historical mural at Washington High School in the name of promoting SFUSD values, which values certainly include their promotion of the military in our public schools known as Junior Reserve Officer Training or J.R.O.T.C., which has been protested over the years to no avail....

Wealthy South Beach Residents Organize to Stop Homeless Shelter San Francisco is now a homeless camp, by definition a public health emergency, since there is now no affordable housing for those of us who make less than $100,000 a year, the entire workingclass, unless we are renting an apartment long enough to benefit from rent control. While the City of San Francisco is trying to build enough homeless shelters so that the homeless at least have a bed at a shelter, as is the case in New York City, the rich parasites in the new condominium area of South Be...

S.F. Women's March, 1/19/19 For the third year in a row, San Francisco had a very large women’s march on 1/19/19, a weekend when we celebrate 46 years since Roe v Wade legalized abortion in the US, with perhaps 100,000 people, wide enough to take up all lanes on Market Street, and long enough to go beyond 1 hour to pass a given point. It was a warm, sunny 65 degree day, a welcome change from the constant rain earlier in the week....

11/6/18 Election: Labor’s Gains & Lessons There were 2 litmus test issues on the ballot, Cal Prop 10 to extend rent control and vacancy control and SF Prop C to house the homeless. The opponents of these 2 crucial measures to put an end to California’s and San Francisco’s housing emergency are the Nazi Trump voters, regardless of which party they claim to belong to, as these are the 2 workingclass propositions. Since Proposition 10 could only get 36% of the vote, it will have to be put on the November 2020 ballot because the housin...

Get Out The Vote 11/3-6/18 for Cal Prop 10 and SF Prop C for Housing for All It is barricades time this Get Out The Vote (GOTV) 4-day voting period, Nov 3-6, 2018, to support Cal Prop 10 to extend rent control and vacancy control and to support SF Prop C to house the homeless.

SF Election Fraud Alert on Prop C Less than 2 weeks before election day, we suddenly received an anti-Prop C multi-colored slick mailer from the Democrats' election fraud team led by one of its beneficiaries, Gavin Newsom, about to be installed as Governor, when most of the vote-by-mail voters have voted as we received our vote-by-mail ballots on October 6, 2018. The vote is likely to be close, a good opportunity to commit election fraud so we the workingclass can continue to experience homelessness and the rich can get riche...
