This week's all new episode of Beau my God features two guest from the world's first Transgender Cultural District, which lies in the heart of San Francisco, CA, USA.

Host Beau Bradley (he/they) is joined by Juniper Yun (she/they), Director of Cultural Affairs for The Transgender District; and Jupiter Peraza (she/her), Director of Social Justice and Empowerment for the Transgender District, who walk Beau (and listeners) graciously through the history of the 1966 Compton's Cafeteria Riots and the history of the Tenderloin in San Francisco.

This episode shares not only crucial San Francisco history, but also Trans and Queer history, information about the history of racism and transphobia in our world, a lot of truth, and a some #TransJoy as well.  Listen in to hear how the organization helped to make history yet again, as they await the initiation of August as the official Transgender Pride Month for the City of San Francisco, and how you can commemorate the history of the Compton's Cafeteria Riots with Juniper, Jupiter, and the rest of the Transgender District on Sunday August 29th, 2021 from 12-4pm on the 100 block of Taylor Street in San Francisco.
