Upcoming Events at SF GLBT Historical Society

Reprinted with permission from History Happens, the newsletter of the GLBT Historical Society (San Francisco) www.glbthistory.org April 9, 2023

Drag Up! Fight Back! March & Rally
March & Rally

Saturday, April 8, 2023
11:00 AM–1:00 PM
San Francisco City Hall
Join Sister Roma, Alex U. Inn, D’Arcy Drollinger, Honey Mahogany, and many more for a rally, march, and live show in protest of recent anti-drag and anti-trans legislation. Legislation has been proposed and passed in states nationwide, targeting gender-affirming care, drag performers, and queer culture. As a result, our stories are being banned from public libraries, our trans kids and their parents are being criminalized, and any acknowledgment of our existence is being outlawed in classrooms.  This event is organized by The People’s March, Oasis, The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, and the San Francisco Democratic Party.

Who Does That Bitch Think She Is?: Craig Seligman & Ms. Bob Davis in Conversation on Doris Fish and the Rise of Drag
Book Talk

Friday, April 28, 2023

In-person program
$5.00 | Free for members
In WHO DOES THAT BITCH THINK SHE IS: Doris Fish and the Rise of Drag, author Craig Seligman dives into the short but abundant life of Doris Fish (born Philip Mills in 1952). In this conversation with Ms. Bob Davis, founder and director of the Louise Lawrence Transgender Archive and curator of our new exhibition, Doris Fish: Ego as Artform, Seligman will discuss the life of this outrageous performer and artist and how we can reflect on Doris Fish’s legacy as a guide and inspiration in the fight against current conservative backlash against drag.
