Thanks, I was not aware of that aspect of San Francisco's history. It does not seem to have much of a connection to the present situation, though - or maybe it does? The Democrats used to be the slavery party, after all.
Is there a good source for the political history of San Francisco that does not automatically take the point of view of the current incumbents?
