I read Shilts‘s account of the AIDS epidemic during the epidemic, but hadn‘t read this one till now. I was 13 when Milk was murdered, but some details from the 1970s still jolted me, despite my age. 1) Cops were allowed to drink on the job 2) Cleaning up after your dog in most cities was the exception, rather than the rule (Milk pushed hard for dog poo laws too!). Happy Pride, everyone 🏳️🌈❤️🏳️🌈
