Shaping San Francisco | City History Lectures
Shaping San Francisco is a series of free lectures, which aim to excavate the city’s lost history. It’s a place to meet and talk unmediated by corporations, official spokespeople, religion, political parties, or dogma.
Shaping San Francisco
Periodic Wednesdays | 7:30 pm to 9:30 pm
Eric Quezada Center for Culture & Politics | 518 Valencia St, SF
FREE
Join a night of documentary shorts from Iranian filmmaker Kamran Shirdel. His reflections on the policies of the Shah’s regime—oftentimes searingly satirical—provides a broader historical and political context for the Iranian student revolutionary movement of the 60s and 70s that was ultimately global in reach.
This is part of the Incite/Insight Film Series, a collaborative production of Shaping San Francisco, New Nothing Cinema, and the Anthropology and Social Change Department at CIIS. Films are at 8 pm at 16 Sherman St. (off Folsom, between 6th and 7th in SOMA).
Bring a dish for the potluck. Bring beverages to share, as well as your ideas and comments.
