I'm Greg, also host of the top-rated Hidden Stairways of San Francisco experience. I'm a world traveler and former music radio host who grew up in Ireland. I fell in love with this city and its music scene the moment I arrived more than 30 years ago. My work in radio brought me in contact with San Francisco rock legends like Grace Slick of Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead's Phil Lesh and Bob Weir.
The Haight-Ashbury neighborhood was the center of the counter-culture movement and the Summer of Love. I'll bring its bohemian history to life and even share some dark secrets from its distant past. I'll bring you to the homes of the musicians that lived here and you'll marvel at the colorful murals and beautiful Victorian houses along the way. Oh, I'll also introduce you to the world's greatest record store!
If you're up for a thought-provoking two and three-quarters hours that's about ideas as much as fascinating historical figures, you'll be thrilled by the intellectual panorama presented!
In 1879 a San Francisco newspaperman and social philosopher proposed a revolutionary piece of public policy to fix the glaring wealth divide in the United States. Treat land values as community property. Within 10 years he had sold 3 million copies of his book, upset the British Empire, run for mayor of New York City as organized labor's champion, and engaged the Pope in public discourse on the rights of humanity. I refer to Henry George, today buried in the index of economic texts, but nevertheless deserving a hearing.
Come along on a walking tour surveying San Francisco social movement history on the way to introducing you to America's most important social thinker, Henry George . . . with the twist that he disputed Karl Marx's binary thinking, maintaining that the Earth constituted a distinct third leg in diagnosing the problem of the wealth divide.
On this fast-paced walk, you'll meet the Black Panthers, the American Indian Movement, the LGBTQ quest for full citizenship, the money reform dilemma, Sun Yat-sen and China's democracy movement, and many more stories of those seeking liberation in the distinctive San Francisco spirit that outrages complacency.
Along the way we'll discover a way to honor labor, humanity, and the quest for civic life.
