“Fuck Lennar!”I’ve witnessed my share of political rallies, but Prop. F’s “We Shall Not be Moved” event at 3rd Street and Palou in the Bayview takes the bumpin’-block-party prize.
Wedged between three cash checking stores, a beauty parlor, and a T-Third station, the rally was awash with multilingual “Yes on F” signs, edgy urban chic and fighting words.
But beyond the many powerful speakers who showed up to stir up the crowd, the afternoon's three most memorable moments involved song, dance and the spoken word.
Turfaholics’ Johnal performed to a funky remix of “San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Some Flowers in Your Hair).
Prop. F supporters put a smile on the crowd's face with their soulful attempts at the Cha Cha Slide.
And last but not least was hiphop emcee Cobe Obeah
Stay with the following video for a minute and you'll get to the part where Cobe announces that he doesn’t usually cuss, then gets the crowd joining in a “Fuck Lennar!" chant, before delivering a final FU to San Francisco’s Mayor Gavin Newsom.
