San Francisco Creates World’s First Ever Transgender Cultural District
"The area Mahogany was walking through makes up part of the first legally recognized transgender district in the world, Compton's Transgender Cultural District."
'In November, San Francisco passed a proposition for a percentage of an existing hotel tax to go to arts, with $3 million specifically for cultural districts. ', "Mahogany, a performer and contestant on Season 5 of RuPaul’s Drag Race, is Compton's district manager."
'Honey Mahogany walked down 6th Street in San Francisco, pointing to single room occupancy hotels, the dance and performance space Counterpulse, and gay bars, OMG and Aunt Charlie’s Lounge. '
'Unlike Mahogany, Sa’id didn’t grow up in San Francisco. '

I hope some members of the religion of peace start visiting this area and enriching it

The documentary cited title gives it away Screaming Queens: The Riot at Compton’s Cafeteria. This person in 1966 wasn't a 'trans woman', trying to pass as a female, but a homosexual 'queen'.

San Franscisco has problems with poop and needles but has time and money to save a Trans Riot diner?! Sounds about right.

Well, it only took about a year and a half:

Seems politicians can get stuff done when they want to.

Oh, I see. A riot occurs on behalf of a mentally ill man who threw coffee at a cop (with zero provided context), but they're the ones being harassed. Got it.
