A map of Sacramento, printed in the November, 1978 issue of “Mom, Guess What?,” a Sacramento-based LGBTQ+ magazine. The map highlights different queer businesses, including bookstores, cafes, and bars. I used this map, along with print advertisements, to find the current sites of former gay bars in Sacramento.
Leaving Sacramento at the end of this month, so I gave myself the project of documenting the current sites of former Gay bars in the city. Here’s a 🧵 of a few of the places I made it to but as you can see from the map, there are many more. #QueerHistory #LBGTQHistory
