The latest in the GLBT Historical Society's monthly "Fighting Back" series exploring contemporary queer issues in a historical context, this community forum will offer a multigenerational conversation about the emergence and evolution of transgender rights activism in San Francisco and beyond.
A panel of historians, veteran organizers and younger activists will highlight the struggle and self-determination found in transgender lives, politics and cultures and will discuss how this history can help inform today's resistance movements.
The event will mark the 52nd anniversary of the Compton's Cafeteria Riot of August 1966 in San Francisco's Tenderloin, one of the earliest instances of militant transgender protest against police oppression.
