Come along on this FREE walking tour of San Francisco social movement history, which concludes with two swift and devastating to the Republican/Romney agenda arguments for your use in private and public discourse.
One of the stories we present is the history of the Mormon diaspora to San Francisco before the Gold Rush. Did you know that Mormons believe that when righteous men die they CREATE their own planet? Mormons believe that Jesus Christ created this planet and begot Adam and Eve. Wow!
Now, for the sake of engaging Romney in a conversation let's agree to accept at face value that belief. What kind of a planet would Mitt Romney create, and with what social expectations? What would be his Sermon on the Mount?
And, by the by, what kind of a planet would you make, and with what social expectations?
Come along on a walk which makes the case, using San Francisco history, for treating land as THE COMMONS.
