Sign of the times: Phelan Avenue renamed Frida Kahlo Way in San Francisco

San Francisco has renamed Phelan Avenue to Frida Kahlo Way, and city officials celebrated the occasion with the unveiling of new street signs.

“This represents the end of a repressive symbol” and shines “the light on a symbol of hope celebrating San Francisco’s rich diversity,” Supervisor Norman Yee said at a news conference. “We will not tolerate exclusion, racism and hatred of our communities.”
