carmichael. as a teacher at betsy carmichael, what i am seeing in inverse relationship to the amount of progress and growth. we need to move forward on this plan, especially with the original intent to address the people as mother jones was saying, putting the premium on people who live here and call this home right now. as many people say it takes a village to raise a child and it really does and i think the plan as it's set up, focusing on services of cultural heritages and low-income housing is really essential and we need to maintain those components so that the people who live here can continue to call it home as it thrives around us. so i encourage you to move forward. >> thank you, mr. bolton. any other members of the public who would like to speak, please line up after these remaining speakers. >> hello supervisors. my name is ani bartanian. i am here speaking on behalf as myself of an owner on 9th street, as well as orthoowners along the 9-10th street corridor. i bought this building for

there's a beautiful picture of stokely carmichael and rosa parks, and i think we're not used to seeing that. >> reporter: we might have gotten used to seeing such unexpected aspects of rosa parks except for one curious fact -- parks' own records of her life are simply not accessible to public view. that's because of a dispute between family members and executors she appointed in her later years, and a probate court ordered that all her possessions should be sold, with the money that's raised being split between the contending parties. so the entire rosa parks collection has passed into the care of a new york auction house, one that's well-known for celebrity auctions. >> the rosa parks archive contains her library, unpublished photographs, correspondence with everyone from family to great leaders. >> reporter: it's all that correspondence, of course, plus her private writing over time in journals and notes that scholars would dearly love to examine closely. >> i just noticed something written when she was referring to her being age 10 where she is crying out about the injustices that s

number 6 is a hearing to consider the issue ans of a type 42 on sale beer and wine license to lyne carmichael for eno saint francis for 310320 geary street. >> i am with the law firm and we have been working with saint francis to get a type 42 license of wine and beer, although it is mostly wine. and on the south side of geary in the building that houses the saint francis hotel. there is one other eno wine bar and two other bars in california, one of them is in half moon bay and the other down in san diego and they are kind of a nationwide effort to have a quiet place to have a glass of wine before your dinner or after your evening's activities we will not be opened late and we are right there near the theater and near union square where there are a lot of tourists and a lot of people from the region, as opposed to the neighborhood. so we intend to serve that group of people with our very quiet and nice up scale wine bar it will have wines from all over the world, snacks, but not meals. and chocolates. the mix of alcoholic beverages to food items is about 7030, which is pretty good for a wine

freelance journalist carmichael and his friend live there. >> it was newly opened.land who wanted to leave and go home. there were people on the mainland who wanted to get on the island to come and have a good time. >> it had gotten tighter and tighter an tighter. >> people started leaving the island and got caught in the middle. >> a massive crush of people forms on the bridge. each person desperately reaching for pockets of air and water. >> it's like a boa constrictor to reach out. only takes 60 seconds to lose consciousness. >> as people in the middle faint from lack of oxygen, the whole crowd went down like that. >> cambodian native and photographer gets word of the situation and heads to the bridge to take pictures, but he's not prepared for what they're about to see. they are stuck. they are calling, please get me water. i'm thirsty. i really thought they must be dying. >> rescue workers desperately try to dislodge people one by one from the crush. and is pinning them down with incredible combined forces. >> think of it like dominos. it's the momentum of the

so it makes sense when carmichael comes to detroit a couple months later in michigan carnival which is the black newspaper, she is sitting in the front row, he calls out to her so it helps me peace these little strands together so this tries to show these little threads into a bigger tapestry. i hope i started it and i hope other people will go even farther than i could. [inaudible] >> i think we think we know her. and we think and because we think we know her, sort of new incredibly kind of vibrant scholarship over the last ten or 15 years, young scholar is doing great work. you just assume it has been done and i think i assumed it too. somebody else had done it or that we sort of knew what she was so we needed to look at other stories and unearthed other activists. i think it a little bit speaks to what i tried to talk a little bit at the beginning which is this kind of paradox of the way she is honored, but kind of that she is honored but just in a very small way. kind of she is relegated to being a symbol and symbols don't have to have a whole history. that is related to her being

i went to a number of meetings at betsy carmichael school and as a nightlife supporter, i think i'm in favor of the plan with some amendments. but i think san francisco needs vibrant nightlife. tourism for better or worse is our no. 1 industry and tourists need something to do after dark. we need the tax revenue and we need places for our youth to go and what is more logical than downtown and west soma, next to regional transit, next to the san francisco tourist hubs and tourist hotels? i understand some of these are going into trailing legislation, but i would like to speak for a second on uses of the second floor for restaurant and lounge uses in west soma and if if this is approved, if you look at chinatown and other neighborhoods, castro district, this has worked well. and it hasn't caused a problem from the neighborhoods. the people will have to go to conditional use on this and be part of extensive neighborhood outreach and discussion. but i would ask this board to approve that second floor usage as this would expand the opportunities to enliven west soma and bring it back to the

my partner and i did attend the first community meeting at betsy carmichael and really appreciated the chance to have some input at that stage. thank you. >> thank you, mr. whitaker. >> my name is themus mickus and i have sent supervisor chiu and you an email detailing my position. i want to apologize in advance to speaking to a very small point that perhaps through inadvertent, i think allowing a garage to operate in an alley way would create traffic and other hazards should not be permitted. so i ask you to please, go ahead and adopt your plan as you have planned and without changing it. thank you very much. >> thank you. >> >> supervisors i am with the company called archstone and we have a very large development project at corner of 8th and harrison on a 3-acre plus parcel. people have talk today about san francisco being weird and funky and there is nothing weird or funkier than a developer supporting a jim niko project. it's a compromise between members of community, people in the planning department, developers, on and on and no one really walked out of this process feeling as t

bessy carmichael and the tenderloin is another. i know they were able to slow it in the alleys but because we're on arteal yar corridors and i am wondering what we can do to improve it in those areas. >> we are using physical measures addition to the 15 miles per hour a sign. it's a policy and opportunity for enforcement but these are physical measures for a motorists to think i would be more comfortable driving more slowly, and within the school funding we can look at those locations and see if there are things that we can do to make physical changes for the areas that are more challenging. >> [inaudible] i'm not item. >> speed humps and medians are thing we are looking for and changes to the lane configuration to narrow the lanes or to have road [inaudible] and bike lanes and change the configuration a little bit and encourage slower driving so those are the kinds of things. >> okay. i'm very interested in all of these things and i am sure we're not -- bessy and tenderloin are not the only schools with these challenges. i am sure

that is betsy carmichael and we are taking care of the students but not only that, she is also across the san francisco city in the south east of san francisco, she was with the king for like 14 years as a professional and her first year as a probationary teacher there at the king. and i also would like to with her permission, pass to you the evaluation stellar evaluation of her teaching performance from that school. she is really an amazing teacher. with her permission, i want to share an excerpt from the summer evaluation, she has acquired great many strategies for engaging students in a quality that enfuses her classroom, is ten asty and a palpable belief that all students can achieve to high levels, okay? that is an amazing evaluation from her first year as a probationary teacher from her principal. strategis for engagement have included concrete incentive systems, a morning greeting that acknowledges students from multiple language backgrounds and regular connections to her students's parents, usually face-to-face, how many teachers do that >> she welcomes that and so that the ho

so then it makes sense when carmichael comes to detroit a number of months later, right there in the michigan -- one of the first things he does, she's sitting in the front row. he calls out to her. so it helped me keep these little strands together. so a lot of what i did was just try to so these little threats into a kind of bigger tapestry. but again, i think, i hope i started it and then of other people are going to go even farther than i could. >> [inaudible] >> i mean, i think we think we know her. and we think, and because we think we know where. so i think there's this new incredibly kind of vibrant scholarship over the past 10 to 15 years. and all of these young scholars doing all this great work. but i think, at first i think sometimes with parks you just assume it's been done and you assume that, you know, i think i assume this, too. that somebody else had done it, or that it was sort of new what she was and we need to look at other stories come we need to unearth other activists. i need, i think it all of it speaks to what i try to talk about all of it at the beginning, w

determining that the issuance of a type 42 on-sale beer and wine public premises license to lynne carmichael for eno st. francis, llc, d/b/a eno, located at 310-320 geary street (district 3), will serve the public convenience and necessity of the city and county of san francisco, in accordance with business and professions code, section 23958.4, with conditions. >> same house same call? this resolution is adopted. item 24. >> item 24 was referred from the land use economic development committee without recommendation. resolution granting revocable permission to aquilina family 2001 revocable trust to occupy a portion of the public right-of-way to remove and reconstruct a portion of a city-owned and maintained retaining wall to construct a concrete driveway ramp, with accessible transition slopes to conform to the existing sidewalk grade, that will provide vehicular access to a proposed new residence with a garage at 54 peralta avenue. >> colleagues, this is from public works. i'd like to acknowledge the district supervisor, supervisor campos. >> thank you, mr. president. colleagues, i want t

ricky carmichael's road to supercross revives a simulated environment that will help riders get betterhey bridge the gap between the arena cross and monster energy supercross. a rider must earn three roads of supercross points and write a minimum of three cross events in a season in order to receive a supercross endorsement from the ama. this new system provides the best training and opportunity for riders who are working hard to make the starting gate of monster energy supercross. >> it gets them in that environment before they get to monster energy supercross series because no matter how much time you spend on the test track in the off-season, no matter how many laps you put in, nothing prepares you for being in an environment like that, it closed in stadium, racing is really tight, everything is coming up so quick, doing tv interviews, being on the podium, autograph sessions, lots of other little things. that is really what it is all about. >> is an excellent job helping to prepare for the supercross career. that is always a huge goal. >> the track is tight, have to be little bit mo

said that i got in trouble because i was critical of her and i said she couldn't pull this sophie carmichael thing and hope to be a good first lady and she's pulled back. the point is as we deal with this sequestration issue, sean, we have to say how do we get a deal. >> sean: isn't it embarrassing-- >> saying that you're ashamed of america. >> sean: and mr., i want to travel $180,000 an hour, that he can't cut -- that we're going to spend more money this year, as rush just said, than we spent last year and yet, they're demagoguing this issue, putting fear into the hearts of the american people and frankly outright lying while he's still stealing from our children 46 cents of over dollar. >> what's the lie about losing 1.4 million jobs, that's no lie, that's a reality. >> sean: juan. >> juan, for a moment just listen, okay? i know it's difficult my brother, but just listen. i'm embarrassed that we have an administration that ignores the debt, ignores an economy that is struggling, remember, it contracted in the last quarter, and it's projected to contract some more in the first and second qu

that makes sense when carmichael comes to detroit months later right there in the michigan chronicle, the black newspaper, she said in a front row and calls out to her. so it helped me tease these strands together. so a lot of what i did was to so these little threads into a kind of bigger tapestry. but again, i hope i started it and i hope people are going to go even further than i could. [inaudible] >> i think we think we know her. and yet now, because we think we know her, so for instance, there's this new incredibly kind of vibrant scholarship on the black freedom struggle and all of these new scholars doing great work. but first i think sometimes you just assume it and then and i think i is sadness, too, that somebody else had done not a renewable issue as and we need unearth other activities. i mean, it speaks to what i try to talk about a little bit at the beginning, this paradox of the way she is honored, but in some sense strapped in this very small way. so she's kind of relegated to being assembled. the symbols don't have to have a whole history and i think that is related t

. >> and she had relationships with people like stoakley carmichael and thought of malcolm x and hisntral strategy for her, and that mrs. parks remained armed even throughout the montgomery bus boycott, because of the violence she faced. so we think of her and king as the non-violent leaders, but she was a leader concerned with self-defense. >> yes, a lifelong leader in self-defense and she gets it from her grandfather when the klan rages through alabama and shoots her husband. and the nine scotsboro boys who are rapidly convicted in 1951 of rape charges, they keep a gun this the house many in many ways, because the organizing is so dangerous. so, yes, she is a lifelong believer in self-defense, but believes in the power of organized nonviolence leading up to the montgomery bus boycott. >> i have been seeing you speak on this in academic circles for a long time and here it is african-american history month and two days before what would have been her 100th birthday and thank you for bringing rosa parks back to us in this country. >> thank you. >>> and up next, what is going on with m
