I re-contextualize the city’s Black freedom, feminist, and gay and transgender liberation movements as struggles over the changing nature of urban working-class life and labor in the postwar period. I argue that as San Francisco was increasingly emptied of its white ethnic industrial work force, working-class life became more economically and socially precarious. People of color and poor women, queer, and transgender people continued to live and work in the city throughout the 1960s and 70s, but their relationship to the formal economy was rendered unstable by lack of steady access to waged labor. Unemployment, non-unionized informal and illegal employment, and unwaged work increasingly came to define the experience of being working class in San Francisco. An analysis that centers precarious forms of labor must not expect labor struggles to look like those of the unionized industrial sector. In post-industrial San Francisco, labor struggles often took the form of conflicts not with employers but with state agencies and institutions that regulated the uses of urban space and access to resources such as social services and public housing. I explore these themes in a number of case studies, each of which examines points of contention between iv precarious working-class groups and state institutions. I discuss the struggle of working-class women to secure access to welfare funds and public housing as compensation for their reproductive labor; the efforts of civil rights groups to win job training and employment for African Americans through city War on Poverty agencies; the organization of gay and transgender sex workers to fight heightened police harassment tied to the growth of the tourism sector; the effects of redevelopment on retired industrial workers; and the escalation of conflict between police officers and unemployed African American youth during the second half of the 1960s. Finally, I locate the increasing precariousness of urban working-class life during this period within the framework of a new post-industrial spatial regime. The uses of urban space that were necessary for working-class survival came into conflict with the needs of government officials and a rising group of business elites, who sought to redevelop the urban environment in ways compatible with new economic growth sectors. Poorer sectors of the working class increasingly came into conflict with a whole web of state institutions and agencies being mobilized to transform urban land use patterns. v Acknowledgments It is difficult to know where to begin when thanking all of the people who helped me finish this project. I am full of gratitude for the friends, family, acquaintances, and sometimes even strangers who provided me with material, emotional, and intellectual support. I would like to acknowledge, in no particular order: the office administrators in the History Department, especially Stephanie Hinkle and Cindy Morris, for their patience with my frequent last-minute scrambling to meet deadlines; Katy, Oki, Wendy, Francesca, Will, Chris, Jack, Marlo, Gemma, Brigitte, and so many others for study dates and for helping me unwind; David Brundage, Eileen Boris, and Alice Yang for taking the time to read multiple drafts and always making me feel supported and encouraged; and my advisor Dana Frank, who pushed me to improve my writing and research skills over the years, was incredibly generous with her time, and most of all made me feel like I had something valuable to say. Finally I would like to thank my brother Paul, my mother Brenda, and my stepfather Gislin for always believing in me. Brenda and Gislin in particular have always been there ready to troubleshoot any problems that have come up over the years, full of advice and eager to see me succeed. I could never have finished this project without their love and support. vi Introduction On July 3, 1967, one hundred and fifty African American young people from the Hunters Point neighborhood of San Francisco congregated at Fremont Elementary School, where staff from the Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO) Summer Youth Work program were gathered at the end of the day.1 Declaring themselves to be “sick and tired of being sick and tired,” the teenagers demanded to be hired by the work program when school let out for the summer. Less than a year after Hunters Point had gone up in flames in response to the police killing of a Black youth, they defiantly drew upon the specter of urban unrest to press for work, threatening “jobs or gasoline,” and promising to burn every factory in the area if they did not receive employment. Refusing to leave until a city official responded to their demand, the group met with a judge and eventually with Mayor Jack Shelley, who promised to produce sixty jobs for Hunters Point youth.2 Nearly two years later, on May 10, 1969, three hundred people gathered in San Francisco’s Union Square to protest proposed cuts to Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC), the federal program that supplied welfare payments to working-class single mothers. Española Jackson, one of the leaders of the recently formed San Francisco Welfare Rights Council, spoke to the crowd, reminding them of the hard work that single mothers performed every day to care for their children. 1 “Hunters Point” is not spelled with an apostrophe. 2 George Murray, “Hunters Point Brothers Sock it to the Mayor of S.F.,” The Black Panther, July 20, 1967, 14. 1 She also pointed out that a lack of access to formal employment was a large part of the reason why poor women were forced onto the welfare rolls in the first place: “We’re not on welfare because we want to be, but because there are no jobs for us.”3 Almost exactly eight years later, on May 9, 1977, sex workers and their supporters gathered on the steps of City Hall as part of an international day of action to protest police harassment of prostitutes. They enacted a mock trial of the political establishment, calling their case “Women v. Board of Supervisors, Police Chief Gain, Governor Brown, President Carter, General Motors and John Does 1-50.”4 The activists read a statement that accused city leaders of profiting off of women’s sexual labor and of using criminalization to prevent prostitutes from organizing for better wages and working conditions: The Supervisors have no intention of abolishing an important source of income for the city….Forced to lead an underground life, prostitutes are also prevented from demanding money and services from the government–social security, disability, unemployment insurance, childcare.5 The sex worker activists also linked the criminalization of prostitution to the increasing prominence of the tourism and white-collar services sectors in San Francisco’s post-industrial economy, pointing out that “the work of prostitutes is a crucial service for the visiting businessmen and tourists who bring money into San 3“Union Square Rally Protests Welfare Fund Squeeze,” San Francisco Sunday Examiner and Chronicle, May 11, 1969. 4“Mock Trial of Business and Government: Sentence: Lifetime of Housework,” Oakland Tribune, May 10, 1977. 5 San Francisco Wages for Housework and the Los Angeles Wages for Housework Committee, “Statement to the Board of Supervisors,” February 15, 1977, folder 541, COYOTE Papers, Schlesinger Library, Harvard University

The City’s park system also includes 15 recreation centers, nine swimming pools, five golf courses as well as tennis courts, ball diamonds, athletic fields and basketball courts. The Recreation and Park Department manages the Marina Yacht Harbor, Candlestick (Monster) Park, the San Francisco Zoo, and the Lake Merced Complex. In total, the Department currently owns and manages roughly 3,380 acres of parkland and open space. Together with other city agencies and state and federal open space properties within the city, about 6,360 acres of recreational resources (a variety of parks, walkways, landscaped areas, recreational facilities, playing fields and unmaintained open areas) serve San Francisco.172 San Franciscans also benefit from the Bay Area regional open spaces system. Regional resources include public open spaces managed by the East Bay Regional Park District in Alameda and Contra Costa counties; the National Park Service in Marin, San Francisco and San Mateo counties as well as state park and recreation areas throughout. In addition, thousands of acres of watershed and agricultural lands are preserved as open spaces by water and utility districts or in private ownership. The Bay Trail is a planned recreational corridor that, when complete, will encircle San Francisco and San Pablo Bays with a continuous 400-mile network of bicycling and hiking trails. It will connect the shoreline of all nine Bay Area counties, link 47 cities, and cross the major toll bridges in the region.

  • Chief Thomas J.Cahill: a Life in Review
    SFGov Accessibility Police Department Chief Thomas J.Cahill: A Life In Review In the San Francisco Police Academy yearbook for August, 1942, on a page entitled ​ Honors, ​ J.Von Nostitz was chosen ​ Most likely to become Chief of Traffic, ​ G.K. Hoover was ​ Most likely to become Chief of Detectives, ​ and J.C. Cook was given the somewhat dubious honor of being ​ Most likely to serve 40 years, ​ presumably in the Department. In retrospect, the person who compiled these predictions weren't much on target, with one exception. Smack in the middle of the page filled with rather clever drawings of each of the officers, his name and prediction typed below, is a sketch of a curly­haired, oval­ faced youth: ​ T.J. Cahill, Most likely to become Chief of Police.​ Thomas Joseph Cahill has the distinction of having the longest tenure as Chief of Police in San Francisco's history, serving under three mayors – George Christopher, John Shelley, and Joseph Alioto ­ through decades that saw tremendous social changes and upheavals. In the Richmond district flat that the shares with Felipa, his second wife of 28 years, there's a large 1967 portrait of him hanging on the wall. You can still see the firmness, directness, and sense of humor evident in the portrait in his face. Now 88, he's alert and strong, his hair white but still wavy. With a touch of the brogue that's never left him, he reminisced over a career that spanned 30 years. Tom was born on June 8, 1910 on Montana Street on the North Side of Chicago.

Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and William Newsom, dated August 7, 2009, and Barbara Newsom, dated September 22, 2009 (by her executor), and Brennan Newsom, dated November 12, 2009.
