Is San Francisco the first completely gentrified city in the United States? Award winning playwright, novelist, and... memoirist, Sarah Schulman visits from New York City to read and share thoughts from her latest memoir, The Gentrification of The Mind: Witness To a Lost Imagination, in which she considers the toll of gentrification on the political and cultural imagination of cities like NYC and SF.
