520    San Francisco is changing at warp speed. Famously home to 
       artists and activists, and known as the birthplace of the 
       Beats, the Black Panthers, and the LGBTQ movement, in 
       recent decades the Bay Area has been reshaped by Silicon 
       Valley, the engine of the new American economy. The richer
       the region gets, the more unequal and less diverse it 
       becomes, and cracks in the city's facade--rapid 
       gentrification, an epidemic of evictions, rising crime, 
       atrophied public institutions--have started to show. 
       Inspired by Studs Terkel's classic works of oral history, 
       writer and filmmaker Cary McClelland spent several years 
       interviewing people at the epicenter of the recent change,
       from venture capitalists and coders to politicians and 
       protesters, from native sons and daughters to the city's 
       newest arrivals. The crisp and vivid stories of Silicon 
       City's diverse cast capture San Francisco as never before.
