The San Francisco capitalist Democratic Party politicians continue to attack the community health centers in San Francisco which they want to privatize as they gentrify San Francisco. The mayor and the Supervisors have continued to push and allow privatization of public housing and also the use of HR director Micki Callahan to harass and terrorize African American and other city workers and whistleblowers.
