Trans sex workers attracted police attention to gays back then. A police officer had coffee "thrown" in his face at Compton cafeteria. It was bame trans sex workers stood up to police brutality. Everything we see now, followed that. There's even a statue of Martha in Greenwich.

Aren't we forgetting how we got to Stonewall? "Queens" at Compton cafeteria in '66. Trans sex workers. Infact, Silvia & Martha weren't even welcomed at 1st Gay rights march at Christpher st Greenwich,...ironically. That's why the famous pic of the 2, in defiance at the front.
