A photo by Cathy Cade from the 1977 San Francisco Gay Freedom Day in which a man holds a sign saying “Bigotry isn’t new to me! Support gay rights.” San Francisco gay culture in this era was largely white-dominated, so this photo provides an excellent example of people of color standing out in and standing up for the gay community.
