In 2001, I was living in San Francisco, working in the homeless rights and economic justice movement, and fighting welfare reform and gentrification policies that were ravaging the city.

Cuba/US relations have been restored and President Obama recently visited Cuba. What does all this mean? You are invited to our upcoming event to find out.
