DESCRIPTION:Compton’s Cafeteria Riots Commemoration Kick-Off  A Commemoration of the 
 40th Year Anniversary of the Compton Cafeteria Riots will be celebrated 
 throughout the Bay Area in 2006. Three years before the famous rioting at 
 New York’s Stonewall Inn, a group of transgender women and gay 
 street-hustlers fought back for the first time in history against everyday 
 police harassment. This was known as the Riot at Gene Compton’s Cafeteria 
 in the Tenderloin in San Francisco.  A chronicle of this historic time in 
 1966 marks one beginning of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender (GLBT) 
 movement resistance. It has been captured in a documentary made by Susan 
 Stryker and Victor Silverman, entitled ‘Screaming Queens’.  Please come 
 support this kick-off event of Compton’s Cafeteria 40th Anniversary 
 activities. It will include a showing of ‘Screaming Queens’. Come learn 
 about this important time in LGBT history, and meet community leaders who 
 are working to showcase this series of events and activities.  Date: March 
 23, 2006  Time: 7:00 PM  This event is free, but seating is limited to the 
 first 250 attendees.  Compton’s Cafeteria Riots Anniversary Activities 
 are sponsored in part by Good Vibrations. For more information, please
