This documentary chronicles the life of George Moscone, California legislator and mayor of San Francisco, whose life was cut tragically short by an assassin's bullet 40 years ago this November. We'll look at how Moscone changed the face of progressive politics both locally and nationally with his campaigns on behalf of racial equality, fair labor practices, and civil rights, especially for the LGBTQ community. Besides family members and lifelong friends, interviews include U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein, House Minority Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and former S.F. Mayor and California State Senate President Pro Tem Willie Brown.
