At their first meeting, Pak told him, “If you’re about the community, then I’m there for you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s a lesson that’s obvious to her friends, many of whom were in attendance for \u003cem>Rally\u003c/em>’s premiere at the CGV San Francisco 14 cinema on 1000 Van Ness Avenue on Friday night. Yet somehow it was a message lost on many San Franciscans over the years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the film, news clips spanning decades repeatedly describe Pak as a “powerful influencer” behind the scenes, a “shadowy figure” pulling the puppet strings of San Francisco’s power structure. She would often describe the term “power broker” as racist, musing, If she were white, wouldn’t they say “civic leader”?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, those news clips never talked about \u003cem>why \u003c/em>she pulled those strings.

Pak defended access to Chinatown businesses by fighting the Embarcadero Freeway closure, and after she lost that fight, she advocated for the Central Subway to ensure people had access to Chinatown. She helped elect Mayor Art Agnos, who, at Pak’s urging, went on to appoint Chinese people into the upper echelons of City Hall for the first time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in 2011, she applied pressure to the Board of Supervisors to appoint Ed Lee interim mayor, later propelling him to victory in his \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbdd_Fasz0k\">campaign to become San Francisco’s first Chinese mayor\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pak wasn’t a saintly figure, and it’s a strength of the film that it doesn’t shy away from showing her as crass, rude and loud, in all the ways that made her charming. The movie also showcases her losses, like the teardown of the Embarcadero Freeway, and Ed Lee’s eventual shifting allegiance toward San Francisco’s tech elite, like “Godfather of Silicon Valley” \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfexaminer.com/news/ron-conway-big-tech-drop-thousands-into-sleepy-sf-election/article_00342725-0356-5f79-a4c4-9e4a025a5d35.html\">Ron Conway\u003c/a>.[pullquote align=\"right\" size=\"medium\" citation=\"Cmdr.

Even in a city that’s dominated by Democrats, change takes a fight and “it’s not going to be simple or clean,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But showing Pak’s imperfections had another importance, Tang said, because the Asian American community, in his experience, struggles with the concept of, “How much should you do to fit in?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s another thing I really admired about Rose,” he said. “She didn’t worry about fitting in, ever.
