no U-Turn signs

A Los Angeles neighborhood, Silver Lake, is removing its "no U-Turn" signs following complaints from the LGBTQ+ community. The signs, installed years ago, have become a point of contention among local activists who view them as a lingering symbol of discriminatory practices.

In a recent decision, the Silver Lake Neighborhood Council, with prominent advocacy from councilmember Maebe A. Girl, approved the removal of the "no U-Turn" signs. Activists argue that these signs are reminiscent of a time when the area faced heavy-handed measures against perceived gay men. . .
