KRON) — It’s Women’s History Month, and we are celebrating at KRON4.
This month, the Bay Area crowned its new Miss San Francisco. She’s also the first transgender woman to earn a title in the organization’s 99-year history.
Monroe Lace joined KRON4 for an interview (watch in the video player above).
San Francisco is definitely a city that should be emulated all over the country. It’s awesome that the city judges on equality and professionalism. Congratulations to San Francisco. Hopefully the rest of the country wakes up.

This is quite a turnaround. I’m shocked to see this as I never thought I would.
Face masks, once an essential Covid-19 protective measure, are now being worn by criminals to conceal their identities, according to New York police who are urging businesses to unmask customers before letting them in stores.
The recommendation is a 180-degree turn from mask-wearing norms at the onset of the pandemic. During peak periods of infection, federal agencies mandated mask-wearing in public places, while many businesses required customers to wear them on the premises.
Now, however, some businesses are banning customers from entering the premises with face masks on, saying the policy change is needed to identify thieves. And after numerous incidents, the New York Police Department is urging business owners to make shoppers remove their face masks and flash their features before being let in.
