In both files I identified Mayor London Breed and her appointed Hunters Point Shipyard Citizens Advisory Committee as having engaged in basic freedom of speech in public comment testimony and basic requirements for meeting quorum requirements in government sponsored hearings. I was not able to convince the SOTF that, like others who attended the 07/17/19 HPSCAC Environmental & Reuse sub-commitee hearing announcing the UCSF/UCB "Independent" Review Radiological Testing Hunters Point Shipyard, I felt was selectively noticed. I do want to revisit your opinion in deciding whether SOTF had jurisdiction to cite the absence of a quorum at the announced 6pm starting time of the meeting as a public meeting violation. I am providing supporting audiovisual documentation that at the time the meeting began the three member required quorum was not present and District 10 Supervisor Shamann Walton is seated in a place holder position for the absent member. This audiovisual stream is available on the HPSCAC live stream at https://sfocii.org/hunters-point-shipyard meetings.

  • Two Housing Campaigns by the Chinese Progressive Association
    THE INTERACTION BETWEEN SERVICE AND ORGANIZING: TWO HOUSING CAMPAIGNS BY THE CHINESE PROGRESSIVE ASSOCIATION Kaori Tsukada Stanford University Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity Undergraduate Honors Thesis May 26th, 2009 i Abstract The Chinese Progressive Association is a 501(c)(3) grassroots organization in San Francisco Chinatown with thirty-seven years of organizing history. This paper focuses on two housing campaigns; the International Hotel Struggle was a ten-year collaborative effort between Bay Area grassroots organizations to prevent the demolition of a residential hotel in the 1970s, and the Housing Justice Campaign of 1997 sought to force the Department of Building Inspections to enforce housing codes. The paper will examine the differences between the organizational structures, organizing methods, and how service came to conflict with, rather than support, organizing. ii Acknowledgements There are so many people I need to thank for being part of this process, which I’ve heard others call a journey, a mountain to climb, or simply “really, you’re doing that?” It has been all these things. First of all, thanks to Professor Michael Rosenfeld for agreeing to be my advisor even when I didn’t know what I was doing, and continuing to do so when neither of us could really tell what I was trying to write. On the same note, thanks to Professor Rebecca Sandefur for taking me in when I so desperately wanted to be part of her research, and then agreeing again when I asked her to be my second reader. I also need to thank Rand Quinn, who offered continuous advice and direction throughout this process.

Degree awarded September 2020 ii © 2020 Thomas Evan Fischer iii THESIS ABSTRACT Thomas Evan Fischer Master of Arts Asian Studies Program September 2020 Title: Sun Yat-sens: Contested Images of a Political Icon This thesis explores the afterlives of the Chinese revolutionary icon Sun Yat- sen and their relevant contexts, arguing that these contexts have given rise to different images of the same figure. It serves as a gallery in which these different images are put into conversation with one another, revealing new insights into each. Key to the discussion, Sun is first introduced in a short biography. Then, the thesis moves to his different afterlives: Sun and the fight for his posthumous approval in the Republic of China before 1949; Sun and his usage in Chinese Communist political rhetoric from 1956 through 2016; Sun and his changing image in the ROC-Taiwan, a change that reflects the contentious political environment of an increasingly bentu Taiwan; Sun and two of his images among the overseas Chinese of Hawaii and Penang.
