A historical stroll down dyke and riot grrrl memory lane, by someone who lived it! Where comfortable shoes, we will cover a few miles. Meet in front of the Women's Buliding on 18th street. From the first all-female bicycle messaging company, Lickety Split, to the Red Dora's Bearded Lady and Osento's bath house, the Mission District, San Francisco was where the lesbians, dykes and riot grrrls gathered in the '80s & '90's. From Muff Dive to Club Red, the party was always going in the affordable San Francisco latino district. Back then, you could not walk home alone, crack dealers were violent and everywhere. Led by Event Producer, former riot grrrl, drag king and award-winning documentary filmmaker Shani Heckman. She's got the historical knowledge, the longetivity in the area, and comedic props to ensure everyone is having fun learning history.
