Answer
Harvey Milk was a gay American politician who served on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors from 1977 to 1978. He was the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in California. In 1978, Milk sponsored an anti-discrimination bill that would have protected gay people from discrimination in employment, housing, and public accommodations. The bill was defeated by a narrow margin, and Milk was assassinated shortly thereafter.
