The BLACK TRANS LIVES MATTER mural on Cafeteria Way in the Compton’s Transgender Cultural District is a powerful public artwork that honors the lives and struggles of Black transgender individuals. Located in the heart of San Francisco's Tenderloin neighborhood, the mural is a bold, visual statement highlighting the intersection of race and gender identity within the broader movement for Black Lives Matter. This mural sits on the historic street where Compton’s Cafeteria Riots occurred in 1966, one of the first LGBTQ+ uprisings in U.S. history, predating the Stonewall riots.

The mural serves as a tribute to both the past and present, drawing attention to the disproportionate violence faced by Black trans people and reinforcing the need for inclusivity within the fight for racial justice. With vibrant colors and meaningful symbolism, it invites viewers to engage with the ongoing conversation about equality, human rights, and the unique challenges that Black trans people continue to face today. The artwork is both a commemoration of historical resistance and a call to action, underscoring the resilience and strength of the Black transgender community.
