I, Jeff Blake, being duly sworn, depose and say:
1. The following is a full and complete statement to the
best of my knowledge, based upon my experiences and
observations during my employment with the Grand
Central Bar and Restaurant as bartender.

superior who supervised my bartending duties was
Joe Fiume.
3. Others in managerial positions during my employment
were George Dotson, who oversaw the detail work of
many of the employees, and Glen Thompson, George
Dotson's superior, who had responsibility for the
general operations of the entire restaurant and bar.
Although generally Mr. Thompson did not supervise
details, frequently I observed him overseeing the
functions of the doormen. Most of the employees,
including myself, had heard that Mr. Thompson was
owner of the establishment; in fact, he was often
referred to as "Mr. Grand Central".
4. As bartender I was never directed to check identification
of any patrons requesting alcoholic beverages. Rather,
I was directed to serve all patrons requesting such
beverages regardless of how old they appeared. I
assumed from these directions that all patrons permitted
to enter the Grand Central were 21 or older or allowed in
by the management.
5. On several occassions I heard the following remarks
made by some of the waiters: "There sure were a lot of
niggers here tonight!"; "The crowd is getting too
black here!"
6. Members of the management frequently agreed with the
perceptions of the waiters. Specifically, I recall
George Dotson using the term "nigger" when describing
some of the black patrons at the Grand Central.
7. One evening of the second week of November 1974, I heard
Glen Thompson use the term "Black Drag Queens" in a
contemptuous way. I was later informed by other employees
that the police had been called in earlier when 5 black
patrons had become unruly because they had been denied
admission. While tending bar later in the evening, a
black patron approached the bar and requested a glass of
page two
water. Although bartenders should charge for water, it
was the common practice of all the bartenders not to do
so. The management was aware of this practice and rarely
- showed any concern. I therefore gave the black patron
the glass of water that he had requested free of charge.
8. Glen Thompson, who had observed this transaction, came
over to me at the bar and said, "When a customer like that
comes to the bar and asks for water, charge him $1.00."
I responded, "A customer like what?" He answered pointing
to some black patrons, "Any of those niggers!" I told
him that it wasn't my job to discriminate and that I would
not be an agent of his discrimination.
9. Later that night, around closing time, a meeting was called
by Glen Thompson; all employees, without exception, were
required to attend. Approximately 40 people gathered for
the meeting, 20 of whom I recognized as employees I was
surprised at the large number of unfamiliar faces present.
Glen Thompson informed the gathered group that the bar
was having trouble with the "niggers" and that it would be
necessary to toughen up the policy at the door. He claimed
that the "niggers" made the bar unsafe. He told everyone
to come the following night "prepared to fight if necessary."
We were all encouraged to bring frineds who could assist
Mr. Thompson by acting as informal bouncers. Each friend'
of an employee who would come to help, Glen Thompson
continued, would receive free drinks from the bar.
10. I had never witnessed any violent or disorderly blacks
during the course of my employment. I saw no reason to
exclude blacks from the bar, particularly on the grounds
that they made the bar unsafe. The black patrons who
frequented the Grand Central were certainly no more
unruly than'the white patrons.
11. The following night there was great tension among the
employees. George Dotson called an informal meeting of
of all the bartenders. He informed us that if a person
came to the bar and said that they were here to help out
Glen, we were to give them free drinks.
12. During the evening Glen Thompson spent most of his time
supervising the doormen. There were certainly fewer
blacks in the bar that night and I noticed that from
that night on until around the third week in January 1975,
when I quit, fewer and fewer blacks were ever seen inside
the bar.
I, Jeff Blake, being duly sworn, depose and say: that
I have read the foregoing statement (numbered 1 through 12)
and know the contents thereof; that the same is true of my
page three
own knowledge, except as to matters therein stated on

One night In November 1974, Jeff Blake was tending bar at the Grand Central, then one of the biggest gay disco bars in Washington, DC. A black customer came up to the bar and asked for a glass or water.
Evan though bar tenders had been told to charge for water, none ever did, and the management "rarely showed any concern," according to Blake.
Blake said, "but on this occasion, the manager of the bar "came over to me at the bar and said, 'When a customer like that comes to the bar and asks for water, charge him a dollar.'" I responded, 'A customer like what?' He answered, pointing to some black patrons, 'Any of those niggers.'"
That same month, Patricia Price, a 26 white woman who was then 28 years old, entered the Grand Central with a friend, a black woman aged 36.
According to Patrice, the doorman waved through batches of white men without asking for any type of identification card. But when Patrice and her friend reached the doorman, he demanded to see ID, then refused to accept drivers licenses and employment ID cards, with photos, from either woman. The women were turned away.
A few months earlier, Charles Hall had gone to the same bar in the company of black friends. They were required to pay $3 each as a minimum to gain entrance, -"While standing near the entrance, however, they saw white men enter without being asked either for ID or for $3. Only
blacks, or wihite persons accompanied by black persons, had to do so.

Such barriers do not exist everywhere, of course, ^hit/where they

In the case of the disco in 'Washington, gay people used the same

as they £ have used to coribat discrimination by atraight establishments
against gays. xhirty-one gay people filed conpliaints against the

^he bar s management refused to manjiraata come to any agreement

Commission. On January 31 °£ this ysanpcfckxxBsaodbaiM — about tufco and
a half years after the f i r s t complaints were filed — the connisaicn
ordered the bar's owners to pay a t o t a l of C6,li5o to the eight people
who testified at the commission hearing. Varying amounts wore awarded
in three categories: compensation for denial of access to a p-ubiic
accommodationj compensation for "embarrassment and humiliation," and
attorney1 a fees for those who had hired a lawyer torepresont them before
the commission.

ifore legal proceedings are in prospect. But many of the persons who
filed aonplaints think the effort wis worth i t.
Patricia Price, for example, h points out that the evidence XSB£
collected by the Human lights Office was used by the J3«C. Alcoholic
leverage Conjftrol (ABC) C aeries ion in suspending tie ^rand Central's
liquor license for 50 days last year. That action, followed by reported,
problems with tax a u t h o r i t i e s , apparently led to the bar's demise.
Gay attorney Joseph V. Stewart added: "This puts other bars on
notice about what could happen to then. :'osides costing money out of their
have investigators from
pockets, they c0uld/kgxjgwgrfciftim<a3m-.the Human lights Office and the

In fact, other gay bars in Washington that in the past wore
alloged
targets of complaints abouVdlscrijMination are no longer complained about.
^he Lost & Found, now the c i t y ' s largest disco bar, was net by pixakrti
froB the old Gay Liberation *ront when i f f i r s t opened in 1971 because
of complaints that i t used the same kinds of discriminatory ID cheks
that thd-^rand Central xsxsx l a t e r used. Frank Xanony, a x. -ay isember
official
of the D.C. Hcman "ights Gonru.ssin, said he had heard of no/complaints
against the Lost & Found for sona tine. Earlier complaints were reportcdly
resolved through 1he conciliatinn process.
While complaints are being resolved in Washington, new ones are
arising in other c i t i e s.
e
In Fhiladxlphla, for example, t :e c i t y ' s Human x£ights Commission
has been investigating complain 9 that the Club Barracks, a gay male
bath, has started to require blacks to f i l l out applications,
thdn telling then i t would take a m nth to process the application. Coamissicn

Looks can make a difference, however. "PrcKbably exceptionally
good lookking black men are s t i l l given mmbcr3hip," Groth told the
PhilaAddelphia Gay Hews. The club'a Manager denied any discrimination,
but said membership policies have been tightened after several p-tty thefts.
Last December, .embers of the Tale University student organisation,
BaYj staged a picket at a New Haven gay bar, Lew Oubliettes. They charged
that i t s nanagenent had been discriminating against blacks and women.
The bar's Manager denied ttie caharges.

Other c i t i e s haje had their siiare of problems in the pajt.
Tbt I l l i n o i s Liqitor Control ^omission handled a conpLaint two years ago
about a Chicago women's bar named CK»s. A patron charged that the
nanagenent was requiring extra ID cards from black and Latin wooen.
The complaint was reaolvied when the bar agreed to post i t s ID
requirements at the entrance and enforce them uniformly.
Similarly, state liquor authorities in 1975 investigated Le Bistro,
one of Chicago's more popular gay nen's danco bars, on charges of racial
discrimination. That was resolved by Jgc an agreement that toe barw>uld
not discriminate in the ftoc future, though i t did not admit that i t had
in the past. A subsequent attempt by the city government to revoke

A relatively short-lxived bar in Atlanta WmxjSiaanttaadb&mAmBm

Some bars in Boston have at times used high, c over charges,

Even where discriminatory policies do exist, they're not alwjjra"
in evidence. Former Grand Gentral bartender Jeff Blake told the B.C.
Hustan Sights Connission that the bar s managers made l i t t l e attempt to
screen out blacks en weetoiighta when business -.-as relatively slo:*, but
Btapped up the carding on busy -ireekends. Often, he eaid, tho ddoorman
would l e t a certain number of blacks in without iiafcident, then begin to
discourage more blacks fxrom entering to keep the clientele from getting
"too black."

Of course, bar managers do not alwscrn hiv.. to engage in -any
cnrert forms of discrimination to attract certain types of customers
and discourage others. Soaeti ee i t ' s enough to put cnwirlMta country
music on the jukebox to drive away black cuatoners.
Nor does the presence or absence of blacks or women in a gay bar
necessarily have anythiig to do with whether or not the bar's owners
or managers personally hold r a c i s t or assist views. To some extent,
customers can be counted upon to do t h e i r ovn self-selecting.
Philadelphia
Barbara Gittinga., a/woman who has been active in the gay r i g h ts
movement for many years, observwl, "When gay people congregate socially,
they do want to be among t h i r own kind." iefcee liany others agree that
gay ran are lively to want to be among other men, and gay women among
other wemsn*
Often, bar managers feel they are simply trying to mold an 'image"
that will attract people with the -oat money to spend, "hits middle-clasa
men generally tend to bo those people, ^hus, a bar that attracts
such people will sell a lot of liquor, while a bar that attracts large
numbers of blacks, for example, may have idle bartenders whila the customers
are busy dancing. That, at least, i s the image sone bar manager have in
mind.
So if the bar managers are only trying to make their customers
feel £ comforxtable with people of their own kind, and i f M M peyolple
have more money than others and are therfore better customers, what's
wrong with that picture?

"oreover, "whenever one discriminates against someone also,
that person lias le3c morgtl justification for" complaining about
discrimination against oneself," as chicago gay activist Bill Kelley
put i t . "There night be arguments about the r i g h t to coalesce in
groups of similar people, but they have t o bo balanced against
these other cosiderations," Kclley commented.
Renee ^Wiovar, a Chicago gay woman lawyer, said t hat abaaemn

men only had four or five. Of H course, i t ' s hard for white, privileged
males to put themselves in the position mentally of being exploited or
oppressed, becausod they're not."
Of course, in some places the possibility of ringling pri-narily
with one's own kind doesn't exist. liany smaller c i t i e s have oniy ono
or two gay awcfcbig bars, if ani^r. If you don't go there, you have to
make do with whatever private dinner parties you can-wangle invitations t o ,
or stay hone.
For example, Bill Smith noted:kfaadt "In I-jacony (Georgia), there are

In any case, the problem of discrimination a t gay bars would
perhaps not be so serious i f there were full participation by a ll
»|iiM«tii»f colors and sexes of gay people in other aspects of tlie
r.ay c ommuniV• ^hat, however, i s not t c case.
Inclty after city, blacks and wonen participate in ,-ay
organisations and services in far smaller proportions than their
shares of the total gay populations. In Atlanta, -where blacks
up jft percent of the ciy's population and about 30 percent of the
raetropoliz±ijrtan area as a -whole, Bill Ssvith estimated that most
gay organizations are perhaps 10 or 1$ percent black. Vj'onen, however,
participato in greater numbers In several organizations, such as
the local ••ictropolitan Community 4iurch« In Boston, Sen Axlley reports
only small numbers of blacks in gay a c t i v i i s t organizations. "i-iore often
than not wefre in the minority." Even in Washington, where the
c i t y ' s population i s about 70 percent black, only a handful of blacks
are active in gay groups*
Baltiraore Is one eaMption, here, both blacks and women have

The reasons for the general lack of black participation
have been debated endlessly without resoluteionx. Boston a &en ,uudley
thinks that at least part of the explanation l i e s in "tactics whites

in society in general. likewise, the question of vronen's [Participation

Naturally, both racism and sexism o^ist in the society at large,
and gays to a great extent reflect thmla. Some gays, especially those
connected with 32c activist groups, believe gay people are affliacted

Description
An account of the resource
The collection includes many drafts of articles he had written on the issues confronting the LGBT community of the time. They are rough drafts, with typographical errors, handwritten notes and corrections, and numerous rewrites. They are also an important source for the events and issues of the period. His files also contain primary documents, leaflets, and notes of interviews connected with the articles he wrote. <br /><br />Aiken, a local gay activist, member at one time of the Gay Liberation Front and a resident of GLF House (1620 St St. NW), Washington correspondent for The Advocate, was also a member of the Stonewall Nation Media Collective which broadcast the Friends radio show on WGBT and WPFW radio for nine years. His broadcasts on Friends seem to have complemented many of the stories on which he worked. In the mid-Seventies, he chaired the Washington Area Gay Community Council. He also served as a founder of Black and White Men Together's DC chapter and edited its newsletter. <br /><br />The Aiken Articles <br />David Aiken's drafts of articles he submitted to the Advocate and other publications in the 1970s document many of the local and national issues confronting the LGBTQ community of the period. As such, they are an important resource of people, events, and issues for students and researchers. The collection contains Aiken's handwritten interview notes as well.
