Revitalizing & Rebuilding Public Housing
Affordable housing for people who are low-income and on fixed incomes is an ongoing concern. On Wednesday, October 14, 2015, San Francisco Mayor Edwin M. Lee was joined by Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Julian Castro, Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, and San Francisco Board President London Breed to highlight the Phase 1 implementation of the $1.69 billion transformation plan for San Francisco's public housing system for extremely low-income households living in distressed conditions.

Re-Imagining the Black Body: Race, Memory, and the Excavation of Freedom
Author, activist Prof. Frank B. Wilderson, III (U.C. Irvine) and broadcast journalist Justin Desmangles (Chairman, Before Columbus Foundation) discuss in-depth a range of critical issues facing Black America and the African Diaspora. In a rigorous and penetrating conversation employing practical and theoretical tools developed in the Black radical tradition, from Franz Fanon to Hortense Spillers, Wilderson and Desmangles explore topical issues ranging from domestic terror to the ascendency of Donald Trump as a racist demagogue.
Powerfully deciphering analysis is brought to bear on the position of the black body in both the material and psychological development of the West, most especially the New World, the symbolic origins of the anti-blackness practiced in the contemporary mainstream, and the misuse of rationality as a legal means of oppression.
Though not without great humor, a no-holds-barred exchange that takes no quarter ensues. Wilderson and Desmangles reveal a fertile, imaginative, sometimes explosive take on the present and the possibilities of a liberated future.
