Screaming Queens: The Riot at Compton's Cafeteria (2005)

Plot

The significant rebellion against police violence, discrimination, and social injustice didn't begin at Stonewall in 1969, but rather at Compton's Cafeteria in San Francisco three years prior. It was trans women and gay men who dared to resist. Nearly four decades later, Susan Stryker and Victor Silverman shed light on this frequently forgotten chapter in the narrative of American civil rights.
