#OnThisDay > 43 years ago on November 27, 1978, a very tragic day unfolded in #SanFrancisco. It was on this day that both Mayor #GeorgeMoscone and Supervisor #HarveyMilk were #assassinated by former supervisor, ex-cop and firefighter Dan White at #CityHall. Moscone died three days after his 49th birthday. Harvey Milk was 48 years old. Senator #DianneFeinstein, who was the President of the Board of Supervisors at the time, announced to the public the shocking news on live TV and radio, "As President of the Board of Supervisors, it is my duty to make this announcement. Both Mayor [George] Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk have been shot and killed. The suspect is Supervisor Dan White." Later that night, a candlelight vigil and march took place that started from Milk's camera shop (now Human Rights Campaign Store) in the city's Castro neighborhood leading up to the front steps of City Hall. After the shootings happened, Dianne Feinstein became acting mayor of San Francisco and appointed Harry Britt to fill in Milk's supervisorial spot. Britt passed away on June 24, 2020. #sanfranciscocityhall #sanfranciscohistory https://www.instagram.com/p/CWycK2DrD3f/?utm_medium=tumblr

In the Senate and as mayor, #GeorgeMoscone led California and San Francisco toward a more tolerant, progressive and inclusive future. Help us share his legacy with a new generation. https://t.co/XC3rUsoCB5 #UOPacific pic.twitter.com/RMAttYKW80

Congratulations to #LondonBreed. When #GeorgeMoscone was murdered, #DianneFeinstein, as #PresidentOfTheBoardOfSanFranciscoSupervisors was sworn in as #MayorOfSanFrancisco & no one attempted to take that from her. When #EdwinLee died, down became up & up became down. London Breed had what legally should have been hers (till #ElectionTime) taken away. #FearBased thinking failed to work. Now, we can move beyond that. I hope she enjoys success & is guided by Wisdom. (at San Francisco City Hall)

City Hall, San Francisco, California, November 27, 1978. Photo c/o AP. On the evening of November 27, 1978, thirty-eight years ago today, just after Dan White turned himself in for assassinating Harvey Milk and George Moscone earlier in the day, Bay Area residents came together in an impromptu candlelight march from Castro Street to City Hall. The nearly 40,000 people, most holding candles, made up what activist Sally Gearhart described as “one of the most eloquent expressions of a community’s response to violence that I’ve ever seen, and I think that we as Lesbians and Gay men, and all the straight people who were marching with us that night—and there were thousands—I think we said it. I think we sent a message to the nation that night about what our immediate response was—not violence, but a certain respect for Harvey and a deep, deep regret and feeling of tragedy about it, because Moscone had been our friend as well.” Tom Ammiano recalled seeing one man standing in the Castro shouting, “Where is your anger?” as the crowd passed; that night, however, there was a calm, a numbness as the city attempted to process its grief. Months later, on the other hand, when Dan White received the lightest sentence possible for his crimes, the Castro went up in flames as the gay community’s anger reached its boiling point. #lgbthistory #HavePrideInHistory #HarveyMilk #GeorgeMoscone (at San Francisco City Hall)
