Over the past few years, our community has evolved a lot and so do the people who make it up. A play focused on two key moments in San Francisco’s lesbian lives.

A champion of the LGBTQ rights movement has passed away. Phyllis Lyon died of natural causes at 95.

I wanted to pay tribute to this amazing lady today. It’s sad to see this LGBTQ icon go. We are losing a role model in the battle for equal rights and a witness to the evolution of our movement.

Phyllis Lyon will have seen and experienced everything with her wife. She spent 50 years fighting for our rights.
