Central Americans in San Francisco: History, Legacy, & Art
Immigration and Migration are key themes seen within murals across the state of California. In San Francisco, tropes, histories, and stories of life and war in Central America are visible on the walls of the City, from the historic Balmy Alley and beyond.
Join California Historical Society for an evening that explores the history and impact of Central American immigration to San Francisco and the broader Bay Area and learn how art, historically and contemporarily, has been, and continues to be, a powerful tool to share the truth, history, and stories of Central America(n)s.

The Patricia Hearst Trial: Local Lawyers Remember
A program presented by the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California Historical Society on October 3, 2018.
The 1974 kidnapping of Patricia Hearst from her Berkeley apartment by the Symbionese Liberation Army – along with her subsequent alliance with her captors in bank robberies, car bombings, and shootouts – forms an indelible memory of life in California in the 1970s. The public was captivated by this heiress-turned-terrorist cliffhanger. Hearst's nineteen months on the run with the SLA featured ground-breaking live TV coverage of a SWAT team urban assault and nationwide police and FBI searches.
The saga culminated in an extraordinary trial presided over by Judge Oliver Carter in the ceremonial courtroom of the federal courthouse in San Francisco. The principal lawyers – F. Lee Bailey for the defense and Jim Browning for the United States – confronted one another, psychiatrists, and dozens of eye witnesses … as well as the defendant herself.
Judge Orrick, whose father sentenced Hearst in 1976, moderates this panel in that very courtroom. The lawyers and judicial clerks who worked on the case also share their recollections and discuss the issues of culpability, coercion, and duress that resonate to this day.

City Rising for the 21st Century: San Francisco Public Transit 1915, now, tomorrow
The Panama-Pacific International Exposition celebrated the emergence of San Francisco from the Devastation of the 1906 Earthquake and Fire, launching it as the most modern city in the world, an economic gateway between the emerging United States, the Pacific and Europe, and a cultural center. An artistic and programmatic success, the Exposition's financial success was dependent on its transportation system. The Palace of Fine Arts and the Civic Auditorium are seen as lasting monuments to the PPIE. Learn how PPIE infrastructure improvements have served San Franciscans every day for the past 100 years and how these arteries are being transformed today to serve us during the next century--Central Subway, Van Ness Avenue Bus Rapid Transit, and E-Embarcadero Streetcars to Fort Mason.

Battles over Latino Art and Public Space in San Francisco
From murals to plazas, parks to landmarks, how have Latina and Latino artists fought for public spaces in San Francisco? How have city planners invented Latino public spaces? Competing visions of place illustrate contestations over history, art, and representation. This tour of Latino art and public spaces exposes larger tensions over city politics and community organizing. Just as the exhibition ¡Murales Rebeldes!—L.A. Chicana/o Murals under Siege! (CHS, April-September, 2018) unearths complex struggles over murals in Los Angeles, this talk illuminates ways Chicana/o and Latina/o artists have strived for power and met resistance in San Francisco.

Labor Strikes and the California Railroad
These presentations focus on important labor strikes that occured during the building of the Transcontinental Railroad and those that followed. Examples include the historic eight day strike that stopped construction of the Central Pacific Railroad in 1867 and the 1894 Pullman strike. California was the second most important center of this nationwide strike, which saw armed workers take over sections of the Southern Pacific line in the state. This was part of a giant struggle for an industrial union in the nation’s most important industry.

1906 San Francisco Earthquake
The San Francisco earthquake of 1906 was a major earthquake that struck San Francisco, and the coast of Northern California at 5:12 a.m. on Wednesday, April 18, 1906.The most widely accepted estimate for the magnitude of the earthquake is a moment magnitude of 7.9; however, other values have been proposed, from 7.7 to as high as 8.25.The main shock epicenter occurred offshore about 2 miles (3.2 km) from the city, near Mussel Rock. It ruptured along the San Andreas Fault both northward and southward for a total of 296 miles (476 km).Shaking was felt from Oregon to Los Angeles, and inland as far as central Nevada. The earthquake and resulting fire are remembered as one of the worst natural disasters in the history of the United States alongside the Galveston Hurricane of 1900 and Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The death toll from the earthquake and resulting fire, estimated to be above 3,000, is the greatest loss of life from a natural disaster in California's history. The economic impact has been compared with the more recent Hurricane Katrina.

Millbrae, CA Train Depot
Like my Facebook page:
Here is a collection of shots from the Millbrae train depot. Enjoy!! Shot 10/9/14
(From
The Millbrae Historical Society opened a railroad museum at the former Millbrae Southern Pacific Train Depot in October 2004. The depot building has been continuously in use since it was rebuilt in 1907. The Historical Society has a three-tiered plan for the site. The first step - the repair, clean up and repainting of the structure - was completed by a group of dedicated volunteer railroaders, led by Historical Society Treasurer and Train Museum Curator Vern Bruce. Throughout the process, careful attention has been paid to restoring the depot to as close to its original as-built state as is feasible. The waiting room and ticketmaster's office have been set up as a display area, housing a varied collection of photos, artifacts, documents, and books dedicated to the railroad history of Millbrae, the Peninsula, and the western United States.
In October 2011, we were honored to take possession of a fully restored 1929 Ford Model AA heavy-duty truck outfitted as a Railway Express Agency (REA) delivery vehicle. The truck, pictured below, is now on permanent display as part of our Train Museum exhibition. The vehicle was meticulously restored by MHS Lifetime Member David Hannigan and donated to the Train Museum for the enjoyment of all our visitors. This newest historical gem is just one more reason you'll want to plan a visit real soon to the Millbrae Train Museum
'The second step in the Millbrae Train Museum master plan is to set up the area just south of the building as a display of historic rail cars and locomotives. That plan began to come to fruition in August 2006 with the unveiling of the 1941 Pullman sleeping car Civic Center from the premium Streamliner train known as the City of San Francisco. This rail car has never been modified and is in its original configuration and paint scheme, inside and out. All of the car's hardware, fixtures, etc. remain in place, and all systems are either working or are in the process of being restored. The Civic Center, along with the rest of the Millbrae Train Museum, is open for public touring Saturdays from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm.
The third element of the Millbrae Train Museum master plan is to have our enthusiastic volunteers work cooperatively with the appropriate contractors to build a rail spur line south of the station for a distance of approximately one mile. This would allow for operation of live rail excursions for visitors to enjoy. If you would like to become a volunteer docent at the Millbrae Train Museum or would like to make a monetary contribution to help fulfill the dream of creating a Millbrae rail excursion line, please call the Museum staff at (650) 333-1136.

San Francisco, 1960s & 70s: Cultural Ecology and Experimentation
The tumultuous decade of 1968–1978 in the San Francisco Bay Area—and the experimentation and cultural shifts throughout the 1960s that led up to that time—shook the City and forever shaped who we would understand ourselves and the world around us to be.
On Wednesday, April 20, Shaping San Francisco and the California Historical Society brought together authors from Ten Years That Shook the City: San Francisco 1968–1978, a collection of bottom-up histories chronicling an awakening community, and contributors to Foundsf.org, their digital archive of San Francisco history, to provide contextual history of the time period in which Lawrence Halprin and Anna Halprin were forging their paths and utopian ideas.
Author and media artist Jesse Drew speaks about the diversity of communal options that sprung up in urban and rural settings then.
Nina Serrano, poet and storyteller, recalls participating in happenings with Anna Halprin and the improvisational landscape the Halprins were creating within.
Lincoln Cushing, poster archivist, shows how the intersections of various social movements provided the fabric for cultural emergence.
Chris Carlsson, author and historian, traces the arc of ecological awareness that moved from the early 20th century patrician conservation movement to the more left-leaning ecology movement that emerged in the wake of labor and anti-war upheavals during the early 1970s.
Historian LisaRuth Elliott moderates the discussion.
Short Read of History of South San Francisco 1908-2008; at Museum; California
Well-detailed history of the South San Francisco area. You can walk away from this mural understanding why the city has formed like it did. Actually, I'm kidding. It made no mention of the Chinese influence which appears to be very strong in the area. Don't tell me that the Chinese arrived in droves after 2008, because they appear to be very established in the area. They are enjoying amazing climate in the area. This isn't even China Town either, as far as I understand.
If you study Feng Shui, there is probably some information on how Chinese view natural climate. They always seek balance in their beautiful lives and probably consider a very stable climate to be a great omen for balanced living. But who wouldn't?

Wiki:
The California Gold Rush (1848–1855) began on January 24, 1848, when gold was found by James W. Marshall at Sutter's Mill in Coloma, California.[1] The news of gold brought some 300,000 people to California from the rest of the United States and abroad.[2] The sudden influx of immigration and gold into the money supply reinvigorated the American economy, and California became one of the few American states to go directly to statehood, in the Compromise of 1850. The Gold Rush initiated the California Genocide, with 100,000 Native Californians dying between 1848 and 1868. By the time it ended, California had gone from a thinly populated ex-Mexican territory to the home state of the first nominee for the Republican Party.
The effects of the Gold Rush were substantial. Whole indigenous societies were attacked and pushed off their lands by the gold-seekers, called forty-niners (referring to 1849). The first to hear confirmed information of the gold rush were the people in Oregon, the Sandwich Islands (Hawaii), and Latin America, and they were the first to start flocking to the state in late 1848. Of the 300,000 people who came to America during the Gold Rush, approximately half arrived by sea and half came overland on the California Trail and the Gila River trail; forty-niners often faced substantial hardships on the trip. While most of the newly arrived were Americans, the Gold Rush attracted tens of thousands from Latin America, Europe, Australia, and China. Agriculture and ranching expanded throughout the state to meet the needs of the settlers. San Francisco grew from a small settlement of about 200 residents in 1846 to a boomtown of about 36,000 by 1852. Roads, churches, schools and other towns were built throughout California. In 1849 a state constitution was written. The new constitution was adopted by referendum vote, and the future state's interim first governor and legislature were chosen. In September, 1850, California became a state.
At the beginning of the Gold Rush, there was no law regarding property rights in the goldfields and a system of staking claims was developed. Prospectors retrieved the gold from streams and riverbeds using simple techniques, such as panning. Although the mining caused environmental harm, more sophisticated methods of gold recovery were developed and later adopted around the world. New methods of transportation developed as steamships came into regular service.

Juana Briones Curator's Talk: Al Camarillo at California Historical Society
On Thursday, February 13, 2014, The California Historical Society hosted a program titled, Curator's Talk with Professor Al Camarillo. He is Guest Curator of the exhibition and Stanford Professor of History. He discussed in detail the story of Juana Briones in nineteenth-century California and her legacy. He was introduced by Anthea Hartig, Executive Director, California Historical Society.
The Exhibition, Juana Briones y su California ~ Pionera, Fundadora, Curandera, will be available from January 26, 2014 -- June 8, 2014 at The California Historical Society, 678 Mission Street, San Francisco. Contact them at 415 357-1848 or visit their website,

In this bilingual exhibition about the life and times of Juana Briones (1802--1889)—pioneer, founder, healer—we experience the transformation of California under three flags: Spain, Mexico, and the United States. We navigate alongside Juana—without a formal education yet dynamic, strategic, and resourceful—through the social, economic, political, and legal upheavals of nineteenth-century California. Through paintings, maps, portraits, legal documents, and artifacts, we realize a vision of Juana Briones as a woman adaptable yet undaunted in her pursuits. More broadly, through her accomplishments—as mother, landowner, business woman, and humanitarian—we glimpse how some women, including those of Mexican and Spanish descent, influenced our state's history on a wide-ranging yet distinctively human scale.
In her time, this remarkable Californian of Spanish and African descent managed a farm and a dairy in Yerba Buena (later San Francisco)—one of the town's earliest residents. She purchased and operated a 4,439-acre ranch in present-day Palo Alto. She adopted Native American orphans and used her skills as a curandera (healer) in the community. She filed for an ecclesiastic separation from her abusive husband—a rarity in her time. She successfully defended her land claims in U.S. courts, becoming one of the state's first women to own property.
No photograph exists of Juana Briones.Yet, from the objects in this exhibition an image begins to form in our minds of this potent, resourceful, and creative woman who convincingly represents the spirit and promise of our state.
