A London cafe has issued a challenge to independent coffee houses all over the continent: make your shops safe for transgendered people on March 31. “Even during the heyday of the gay and lesbian movement in the 1960s, transgendered people were kicked out of the movement,” said Linda Wayne, owner of the East Village Coffee House, on Dundas St. beside the Aeolian Hall.
March 31 was declared International Transgender Day of Visibility in 2009.
