textCastro Community Braces for Halloween by Paul Hogarth via Beyond Chron
Monday, September 24, 2007 : There will be no sanctioned “Halloween” party this year, but the City has no public plans besides urging people to stay out of the Castro – and telling businesses to close early. A Task Force that Mayor Newsom and Supervisor Bevan Dufty launched last November never met, and efforts to move the party fell through when the City left other neighborhoods out of the process....

text"Cruising" Comes to the Castro by Tommi Avicolli-Mecca via Beyond Chron
Monday, September 17, 2007 : When I first heard that William Friedkin’s 1980 anti-gay classic “Cruising” was coming to the Castro Theater, I felt a rumble in the pit of my stomach. How could a film that was not only protested vehemently by the queer community, but also trashed by every reputable critic, be playing at the Castro Theater in the heart of San Francisco’s queer neighborhood? Just as raids on gay bars are things of the (not-so-distant) past that no one thinks about when they enter...
