Part 7/10:

This day marked a profound shift in the city's psyche, with Diane Feinstein—the city supervisor who discovered Milk's body—ascending to the mayor's office. This act not only robbed the city of two progressive champions but also dimmed the enlightenment that was beginning to permeate California's political landscape.
