District 5 is one of the most diverse districts in San Francisco - spanning the Haight to the Fillmore to Hayes Valley to the Tenderloin.

Join as we sit down with Bilal and chat about the drug and housing crisis, the need to rebrand “progressives”, the recent anti-incumbency wave in local SF politics and more.
