Talk about preaching to the choir

Taking place tonight (listing from SFist):

The Mission Anti-Displacement Coalition is sponsoring a panel discussion about how "greedy developers and sell-out politicians have been scheming throughout urban history to put down and force out working-class African-American, Immigrant, and Indigenous communities from San Francisco." 7:30 p.m. at Modern Times (888 Valencia, x 20th).

I don't really doubt that greedy politicians and schmucky developers (or vice versa) have something to do with displacing the working class. But seriously, I can just imagine who's going to be there, nodding their heads throughout the presentation in that we're smarter than everyone else Bay Area way. I don't need it. I'm going to have Chinese food instead.
