Bay Area Reporter :: Remembering Michael Callen in a new biography

Michael Callen (1955-1993) is not as well remembered today as he deserves to be. But during the peak years of the AIDS crisis, Callen was known the world over not only for his AIDS activism, but for his music. Callen was a gifted singer-songwriter who made a name for himself both as a solo artist and as a member of the gay a cappella singing group The Flirtations. But it was his AIDS advocacy for which Callen made his greatest impact.
Callen loved being gay, and he loved sex, celebrating both unashamedly. In 1983, soon after his own AIDS diagnosis, Callen published

Bay Area Reporter :: Howie Klein: modern music man

Depending on how long you've lived in San Francisco, and by extension, how long you've been reading the Bay Area Reporter, the name Howie Klein may be familiar to you. Klein, who wrote about music for the BAR 40 or so years ago, was a radio DJ who co-founded the legendary 415 Records label. 415 was home to important San Francisco bands including Romeo Void, Wire Train, Translator, The Nuns, Pop-O-Pies, and Pearl Harbor and the Explosions, to name a few.
In Los Angeles, Klein went on to work for major label conglomerate Warner Brothers/Reprise/Sire where he supervised artists including Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Depeche Mode, The Pretenders, The Smiths, Talking Heads, Green Day and others.

Bay Area Reporter :: Political Notebook: SF supe Mandelman moves forward with partial Lyon-Martin House landmark

In light of opposition from the new property owners, San Francisco officials appear set to landmark only a portion of the Noe Valley property where the late lesbian pioneering couple Phyllis Lyon and Del Martin lived for much of their 56-year relationship. Meanwhile, a city open space nearby the property could be renamed in honor of the women.
Preservation groups and LGBTQ historians had sought to see the entire Duncan Street property become a city landmark. They had argued that the adjoining garden plot to the cottage where the women lived should also be included in the landmark because the couple's cremains were interred and scattered on the undeveloped portion. The city's planning department had also recommended the entire property be landmarked.

Bay Area Reporter :: Fears over women's safety made wedge issue in Equality Act hearing

A Senate hearing on the Equality Act, which would expand the prohibition on discrimination under federal law, put on full display March 17 the use of fear-mongering about women's safety and the integrity of women's sports as a tool to thwart attempted progress on LGBTQ rights, although more traditional objections based on religious liberty also played a role.
Senator John Kennedy (R-Louisiana) pulled no punches during the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing — the first-ever hearing for the Equality Act in the U.S. Senate — in heightening fears about threats to women in sex-segregated spaces.
When Abigail Shirer, a journalist who has built a career campaigning against gender transitioning for youth, was presenting testimony as an expert witness, Kennedy went straight to the locker rooms.

Bay Area Reporter :: LGBTQ Agenda: Biden administration extends anti-discrimination rules in to queer borrowers

The Biden administration has issued guidance explicitly extending to LGBTQ people the protections of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act.
"In issuing this interpretive rule, we're making it clear that lenders cannot discriminate based on sexual orientation or gender identity," Consumer Financial Protection Bureau acting director David Uejio stated March 9. "The CFPB will ensure that consumers are protected against such discrimination and provided equal opportunities in credit."
The guidance comes as the bureau's answer to President Joe Biden's Day One executive order telling agencies to comply with the United States Supreme Court's 2020 decision in Bostock v. Clayton County, which itself held that a federal law — Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 — that bars discrimination on the basis of "sex," also prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

Bay Area Reporter :: 'Good old boys' at SFFD targeted lesbian assistant chief, claim states

A San Francisco Fire Department assistant chief became the third — and highest ranking — member of the LGBTQ community to publicly accuse the department of discrimination this year.
Assistant Chief Nicol Juratovac, a lesbian, filed a claim of whistleblower retaliation and discrimination against the San Francisco Fire Department and the city's Department of Human Resources March 5.
"AC Juratovac has become the target of a relentless campaign of harassment and discrimination by department leadership for taking on the good old boys mentality at the SFFD," the claim states. A claim is a precursor to a lawsuit.
Juratovac is asserting that she was retaliated against after exposing cheating on promotion exams, safety violations, and racism in the department — as well as for blowing the whistle on what her attorney, Mark P. Fickes, of Cannata O'Toole Fickes and Olson, described as a "drunken" party at a fire station in Noe Valley in 2017.
