Description:
The first significant protest against police brutality, harassment, and societal oppression occurred not at Stonewall in 1969, but at Compton's Cafeteria in San Francisco three years prior. The protesters were transgender women and gay men. Nearly 40 years later, Susan Stryker and Victor Silverman recount this often-overlooked event in American civil rights history.
