Description

Divas celebrated 31 years of serving the trans community before closing its doors for good on March 30. Some trans people say the club represented a space of inclusion and community in a city that’s becoming more mono-cultural. Today we bring you one person's love letter to the place where she discovered herself.

Guest: Maria Konner, Host of San Francisco's variety show Under the Golden Gate.
