Polk Street Stories

Sun. 12/12: This hour contains stories from the alleys and bars, churches, shelters and clubs of San Francisco's Polk Street district. It is an oral history of a place invented by those who had no other home.

Public Historian Joey Plaster spent over a year gathering more than 70 interviews from people experiencing Polk Street's transition from a working class queer neighborhood to an upscale entertainment district.
