His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

One day, a policeman came in and started harassing some of the women. They had had enough and decided to throw their coffee in the policeman’s face.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The reaction started a riot that lasted several days, preceding the more well-known Stonewall Riots in New York City by three years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-WASW9dRBU\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As far as we know, the Compton’s Cafeteria riot was one of the first recorded LGBTQ uprisings,” Mahogany said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, the building serves as a halfway house for the formerly incarcerated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Honoring the past is an important aspect of the district’s work. But Mahogany is also focused on the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district’s most immediate plans include hosting community meetings to figure out how to allocate the new funding coming from the city’s hotel tax this year. Mahogany said the money will likely go to covering operational costs, such as the salaries of an executive director and development manager to run, and find further funding for, the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11717675\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11717675 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/IMG-1939-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Outside the future site of the Compton's Transgender Cultural Center on Ellis Street\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Outside the future site of the Compton’s Transgender Cultural Center on Ellis Street. \u003ccite>(Chloe Veltman/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003cbr>\nMahogany said the district also plans to open a cultural center with a small business incubator.

Among other things, it granted same-sex marriage licenses ahead of other U.S. cities in 2004, and, in 1982, hosted the inaugural gay games.

One day, a policeman came in and started harassing some of the women. They had had enough and decided to throw their coffee in the policeman’s face.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The reaction started a riot that lasted several days, preceding the more well-known Stonewall Riots in New York City by three years.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/G-WASW9dRBU'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/G-WASW9dRBU'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>“As far as we know, the Compton’s Cafeteria riot was one of the first recorded LGBTQ uprisings,” Mahogany said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, the building serves as a halfway house for the formerly incarcerated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Honoring the past is an important aspect of the district’s work. But Mahogany is also focused on the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The district’s most immediate plans include hosting community meetings to figure out how to allocate the new funding coming from the city’s hotel tax this year.

If she’s trying to show empathy, the condescending, intolerant tone tells a different story. A reminder that you’re participating in a competition in a country/continent where English is NOT the primary language.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Summers later \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/BrVhYAEhq_8/\">posted a picture\u003c/a> to Instagram in which she is hugging Miss Cambodia, Rern Sinat, and said she had learned from the experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In a moment where I intended to admire the courage of a few of my sisters, I said something that I now realize can be perceived as not respectful, and I apologize,” Summers wrote. “My life, friendships, and career revolve around me being a compassionate and empathetic woman. I would never intend to hurt another. I am grateful for opportunities to speak with Nat, Miss Cambodia, and H’Hen, Miss Vietnam, directly about this experience. These are the moments that matter most to me.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Late for the ball, but right on time for the grand tour\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The best story from this year’s pageant — and honestly, we have no idea how there is this much Miss Universe news — is the tale of a contestant who never stepped onto the stage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Miss Sierra Leone, Marie Esther Bangura, had to travel to Ghana and then Nigeria to apply for a Thai visa. That took two weeks, and she arrived in Bangkok a few days too late to compete, \u003ca href=\"https://www.bangkokpost.com/lifestyle/social-and-lifestyle/1595246/thai-fans-fall-for-miss-sierra-leone\">according\u003c/a> to the \u003cem>Bangkok Post\u003c/em>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But local Thais were sympathetic to her plight. One them gave Bangura a tour of Bangkok’s temples and \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/BrZvmn6H9hd/\">took photos\u003c/a> of her posing in traditional Thai clothing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I always wanted to represent my country and that’s why I tried so hard to be here,” Bangura said, according to the \u003cem>Post\u003c/em>. “Since I’m not competing, I still feel good because I got to meet people and learn new things. I know everything you go through you learn a lesson, and I’ve learned a lesson. I’ve met different people.

At last, Ponce walked onto the stage and held her Spain sash aloft while she clutched her heart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Miss USA says she is sorry\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Miss USA, Sarah Rose Summers, was criticized for remarks about two of her fellow contestants that struck some as condescending and xenophobic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an online video \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/13/asia/miss-usa-comments-summers-intl/index.html\">posted Wednesday\u003c/a>, Summers and the contestants from Colombia and Australia \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/13/asia/miss-usa-comments-summers-intl/index.html\">talk about Miss Vietnam\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She’s so cute,” Summers says. “And she pretends to know so much English, and then you ask her a question after having a whole conversation with her, and she goes [smiles blankly and nods]. She’s adorable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Miss Cambodia is here and doesn’t speak any English and not a single other person speaks her language. Can you imagine?” Summers says in another clip. “Francesca [Miss Australia] said that would be so isolating, and I said yes, and just confusing all the time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Poor Cambodia,” she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A prominent fashion Instagram account, Diet Prada, shared the video and \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/BrUHzaZlD9O/\">compared\u003c/a> Summers to \u003cem>Mean Girls\u003c/em> mean girl Regina George, writing: “This is basically what normalized xenophobia looks like. If she’s trying to show empathy, the condescending, intolerant tone tells a different story. A reminder that you’re participating in a competition in a country/continent where English is NOT the primary language.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Summers later \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/BrVhYAEhq_8/\">posted a picture\u003c/a> to Instagram in which she is hugging Miss Cambodia, Rern Sinat, and said she had learned from the experience.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In a moment where I intended to admire the courage of a few of my sisters, I said something that I now realize can be perceived as not respectful, and I apologize,” Summers wrote. “My life, friendships, and career revolve around me being a compassionate and empathetic woman. I would never intend to hurt another. I am grateful for opportunities to speak with Nat, Miss Cambodia, and H’Hen, Miss Vietnam, directly about this experience. These are the moments that matter most to me.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Late for the ball, but right on time for the grand tour\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The best story from this year’s pageant — and honestly, we have no idea how there is this much Miss Universe news — is the tale of a contestant who never stepped onto the stage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Miss Sierra Leone, Marie Esther Bangura, had to travel to Ghana and then Nigeria to apply for a Thai visa. That took two weeks, and she arrived in Bangkok a few days too late to compete, \u003ca href=\"https://www.bangkokpost.com/lifestyle/social-and-lifestyle/1595246/thai-fans-fall-for-miss-sierra-leone\">according\u003c/a> to the \u003cem>Bangkok Post\u003c/em>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But local Thais were sympathetic to her plight. One them gave Bangura a tour of Bangkok’s temples and \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/p/BrZvmn6H9hd/\">took photos\u003c/a> of her posing in traditional Thai clothing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I always wanted to represent my country and that’s why I tried so hard to be here,” Bangura said, according to the \u003cem>Post\u003c/em>. “Since I’m not competing, I still feel good because I got to meet people and learn new things. I know everything you go through you learn a lesson, and I’ve learned a lesson. I’ve met different people. I feel so much loved and excited.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

They bathed by the light of a small lantern, dressed themselves and applied makeup as dozens of men milled about outside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Each night they sift through piles of donated clothing to try to look as sharp as possible. And they face a dilemma: Where to dress and relieve themselves?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have problems when it comes time to go to the bathroom,\" said Nakai Flotte, a transgender woman and activist. \"We bathe in the men's, sometimes in the women's, but it's difficult. There isn't one for us.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Flotte was accompanying the migrants to provide support and information about making asylum claims.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. \"should take into account their condition of vulnerability and violence,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, a decision by then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions this year to deny asylum to victims of domestic and gang violence could also have a negative impact on transgender women and men because many are victims of gang violence who are targeted for being transgender.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I know it will be difficult to win asylum,\" said Alexa Amaya, a 24-year-old from Honduras, \"but we have to make the attempt.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11706015\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/GettyImages-1060766332-e1542141908594.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11706015\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/GettyImages-1060766332-e1542141908594.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/GettyImages-1060766332-e1542141908594.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/GettyImages-1060766332-e1542141908594-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/GettyImages-1060766332-e1542141908594-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/GettyImages-1060766332-e1542141908594-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/11/GettyImages-1060766332-e1542141908594-1200x800.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Members of the LGBTQ community arrive at the Diversidad Migrante NGO headquarters, which they will use as shelter, on Nov. 11, 2018, in Tijuana, Mexico. \u003ccite>(Guillermo Arias/AFP/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The caravan has traveled more than 1,000 miles in the month since its initial participants set out from San Pedro Sula, Honduras. As it traverses Mexico's central highlands, it's still about the same distance from its goal of Tijuana, across the border from San Diego. It's unclear how many will make it.

For the LGBTQ group, it's been tougher to find those rides.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A taxi driver kicked us out of his car,\" said Lady Perez, a 23-year-old from Honduras, adding that sometimes truck drivers who often transport migrants for a small fee have doubled or tripled the price for her group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lady began identifying as transgender at age 5, and her father ultimately disowned her.
