Dear Marcy,
Yours is a fascinating, first-hand report, all too brief!
I would love to have an event with you speaking about what you experienced then--your memories, your feelings, the Govt, the press, the conditions as they changed around you, the variety of reactions of others.
Perhaps we could do it as an agenda item, over a meal, etc.?
Warm regards, Michael
Dear Marcy;
Yes it would be fascinating. We have all read
second hand accounts of the days of Evita
but you lived Evita.
The talk could be titled:
The Long March Revolutionary Autobiography
of Marcy X - Who Has A Dream That One Day...
Then from the book you write a movie could be
made with Angelina Jolie as yourself and Brad
Pitt as Bart.

Dear Michael,
Thank you for your interest in the "expatriate" experience! Don't get
me started, or I would end up ranting about this subject all the time!
However, I feel that talking about it to my fellow libertarians is
preaching to the converted. So your suggestion gave me another idea:
how about fashioning on our LPSF website a column where folks like me
could tell of their first hand experiences with socialism or fascism
as related to some aspect of San Francisco politics. Just a thought.
Marcy

Dear Ron,
Wow, I can already see my name in lights. But the story has already
been told in "Evita." The musical pretty well captured the
mesmerizing power of Juan and Evita. Well, I will work on my proposal
about a website column, nevertheless. BTW Bart was not there! I was
a young teen when all this happened : - )
