People We Meet: Socrates Marinho, the mayor of 19th Street
Briefly

I had a pretty primitive lifestyle. The thing that made sense to me was to have a spear gun and go catch my fish, my lobsters and my octopus... It was a beautiful life.
The comradery Marinho grew up with is what he found when he arrived in the neighborhood. He recounted the energy and diversity he sees in every aspect of this community.
We met and started dating. Eventually, I ended up here in the Mission... The relationship is over but Marinho called it 'a beautiful story.'
