WHY: “The Mueller Report is one of the most important political documents of our time yet so few Americans have actually read it,” said Manny Yekutiel, founder and owner of Manny’s “Over 30% of members of the congress have declined to say if they’ve read it. It isn’t right. I’m proud to be working with Cary McClelland to organize this reading of the report to call attention to the important findings within.”
The entire 442-Page Mueller Report will be read in 30 minute segments by a broad cross section of Northern California politicians, community members and activists.
Manny’s is a people powered and community focused meeting and learning place in the heart of San Francisco that combines a restaurant, political bookshop, and civic events space. The goal of Manny’s is to create a central and affordable place to become a better informed and more involved citizen. We do this by offering our events space to nonprofits, activists, and civic organizations to spread their message and do their work as well as hosting our own civic and arts related programming. Our kitchen is run by the non-profit, Farming Hope, which hires formerly homeless and formerly incarcerated individuals and trains them in the food skills needed to work in the restaurant industry.
Manny’s opened on Election Night, 2018 where over 500 people came together to watch the results of that moment in our civic life together and since then the venue has hosted hundreds of gatherings. Manny’s is a community space and is proudly located in the Mission District – a historic hub of activism and progressive action.
