Commemorating 250: Innovation, Identity & the Fight for the Soul of SF
About this Event
From Gold Rush boomtown to counterculture capital to the center of the tech revolution, SF has repeatedly reinvented itself over its 250 years. What do those transformations reveal about America itself?
Drawing from his reporting on Silicon Valley, media, politics, and civic life, Jonathan Weber explores the tension between innovation and inequality, who gets to shape the future of cities, and whether San Francisco can remain a place for artists, working people, and creative experimentation in the decades ahead.
Weber is joined by John Temple, a veteran journalist and entrepreneur who has served as a managing editor of The Washington Post; founding editor of Honolulu Civil Beat; editor, president and publisher of the late Rocky Mountain News; and president of First Look Media. Today he is the chairman of Amuse Labs, the leading software company working with media globally to support online puzzles and games.
