lgbt-history-archive: Gay Asian Information Network (GAIN) members (including Randy Kikukawa, foreground) picket Castro Station Bar for denying Asian men entrance because they were “small,” San Francisco, c. 1980. Photo by Rink Foto. At the time, many gay bars across the country denied entrance to people of color either by enforcing ambiguous physical requirements or requiring multiple forms of identification for non-white patrons; GAIN led an early fight against such practices in San Francisco. #lgbthistory #lgbtherstory #gay #bi #lesbian #trans #asian #pacificislander #ofcolor #nonwhite #pride #castrostation #rinkfoto #randykikukawa (at Castro Street) -- source link
