Campaign poster for drag nun Sister Boom Boom’s 1982 run for the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. Running as Nun of the Above, Boom Boom campaigned on police accountability, housing, and reclaiming the Moral Majority from Jerry Falwell, proposing to homestead vacant properties and turn the Presidio into farms, parks, and housing. The campaign drew more than 23,000 votes but ultimately placed eighth in the race for five positions. The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence are a protest order of drag nuns founded in San Francisco in 1979. Photography by Nina Glaser, design by Emfinger Moske Associates.
