Community Means Something
VERY Different in San Francisco
Strong relationships make for strong communities. Here California State Senator Mark Leno (than
Assemblyman) meets with San Francisco District Six leaders and receives a proclamation of their appreciation. Creating these
events where people rub elbows with our legislators enhances trust and builds better communities.
San Francisco
made world history when it opened its doors for a gay marriage revolution. Cameron Eng and Terrance Alan were number
67 in the line, gladly gave number 69 to a cool Dyke couple, who remain friends today. While the act of receiving a
true marriage certificate has been fodder for of a court battle (sucessful) and a ballot proposition (Prop8),
unsucessful, their commitment to each other has grown stronger with each challange.
This website, the views expressed here are the sole property and responsibility of Terrance Alan. The opinions expressed
here may or may not represent the views held by the organizations to which Terrance belongs, including the Entertainment Commission.
The purpose of this site is to provide a clearing house of information on what one citizen is doing to make San Francisco
a truly sociable city.
A sociable city has at its foundation the values of tolerance, diversity, acceptance and respect.
While often times these values are positioned as mutually exclusive, it is my purpose here to chronicle the elements that
lead to successes in diverse lively cities.
And this introduction would not be complete without the remembrance
of those who have gone before me in the struggle for equality and the ones that stand steadfastly by my side every day.
