Stonewall, and the lesser-known 1966 Compton's Cafeteria riot (3 years *before* Stonewall) in the Tenderloin neighborhood, marked pivotal moments in trans resistance, where transgender women, drag queens, and queer patrons fought back against police harassment. If not for those Queens, where would the community be?

Happy Trans Day of Visibility!
We cannot be Proud if we’re not all treated equally.
XOXO
And I love that you mentioned Compton's.... many have no idea such a thing happened before Stonewall.
Thanks, Rick!
It was. Right up until the SCOTUS ruling.
XOXO
I don't get why Compton isn't as recognized....
I've never agreed with the "there's no LGB without the T" - it's complete bullshit and does not make a lick of sense
Equality means respecting everyone. Love, peace and respect to all.
