                  <text>The 1987 March on Washington brought Latino lesbians and gays together from around the country and inspired new local, regional, and national organizations.   ENLACE: Washington, DC Metropolitan Area Latino Gay &amp;amp; Lesbian Coalition, DC's first political support organization for Latino gay men and Latina lesbians, had just been formed and the March gave it the impetus to grow as a force in the local community.  Some of those who had come to Washington for the March stayed on in the city and helped organize ENLACE: Washington D.C. Metropolitan Area Latino Gay &amp;amp; Lesbian Coalition.&#13;
&#13;
Until 1987, Latinos had no special voice to speak for them as Latinos in the LGBT community and as gays and lesbians in the Latino community.  Over the next eight years ENLACE spoke, acted, and created new standards in political and social representation of its members and in educating its community about HIV/AIDS.  ENLACE members were the first gay men and lesbians to march in the city's annual Hispanic parade.  They created HOLA GAY, the first Spanish language hotline.&#13;
&#13;
"Un grupo de apoyo para latinos gay ofrece la oportunidad para los que buscan discutir las preocupaciones que tenemos en comun incluyendo el SIDA, la familia, el auto-estima, las relaciones personales y la identidad gay.  Juntos podemos trabajar para encontar soluciones saludables con la asistencia de un moderador entrenado."&#13;
&#13;
A peer support group allows gay Latinos to come together to discuss common issues of AIDS/HIV, family relationships, identity and self-esteem.  Together, with the help of trained facilitators, we can find healthy solutions. &#13;
 &#13;
ENLACE defined itself as a political organization but it used social events to identify Latino gays and lesbians and to deliver its message of support.&#13;
&#13;
In April 1988, ENLACE introduced itself to the community with a reception at the Office of Latino Affairs.  From the outset, ENLACE (the word means "link") built coalitions and links to other organizations in both the gay and lesbian community and the Latino community.  In the wake of disturbances in the Mount Pleasant area, ENLACE presented its own analysis and recommendations to the commission investigating the events.  One of ENLACE's major contributions, of course, was its ground-breaking work in AIDS awareness and HIV education.&#13;
&#13;
With the DC Coalition of Black Lesbians, Gays, and Bisexuals, ENLACE sponsored social events.  It worked with the Latin American Task Force, the Whitman-Walker Clinic, and other social, political, and health organizations to ensure recognition and satisfaction of Latino gays and lesbians' needs.&#13;
&#13;
ENLACE held its first social event, La Fiesta Tropical, at the popular straight disco Cities.  Despite a slow start, the evening ended with a room packed with Latino men and women who learned for the first time of ENLACE's work.  La Fiesta Tropical became an annual event.  The group sponsored dances at Hill Haven, a lesbian club on Capitol Hill, at hotels in the Dupont area, and supported early Latino clubs such as El Faro.&#13;
&#13;
Noticias de Enlace, a monthly newsletter, chronicled much of ENLACE's organizational, political, and social development and is a primary source for ENLACE's activities and for insights into the concerns of Washington, D.C.'s Latino gay and lesbian population.&#13;
&#13;
The Rainbow History Project, through the kindness of former members of ENLACE presents many issues of the Noticias and event flyers (in .pdf format).  Unfortunately, the file size of Noticias issues has meant that we have had to offer some of them page by page, rather than in their entirety.  Also below are event flyers for ENLACE's social activities, as well as the group's report on the Mount Pleasant incidents.&#13;
&#13;
We are grateful to Ms. Letitia Gomez for the loan of Enlace documents and for permission to post them on the Rainbow History Project's website.</text>

&#13;
Bruce C Pennington was born in Rugby, ND on September 17, 1947 and died in Washington, DC on August 26, 2003.  He arrived in Washington, DC in the autumn of 1968 to work initially for Liberation News Service.  In Washington, DC he was an early member of the Gay Liberation Front (1970-1974), founding member of the Stonewall Nation Media Collective, producers of the Friends radio program on WGTB-FM and WPFW-FM (1973-1982), of Black and White Men Together-DC, and of the Rainbow History Project (2000-2003).  He served on the Washington, DC Human Rights Commission from 1988 to 1991. Pennington worked professionally as a chef and restaurant manager and a teacher of English.  As one of the first gay men to serve as a foster parent to a gay youth, he gave credibility to the gay foster parenting campaign.</text>

              <text>GAY PEOPLE: HAVE-WE COME THIS FAR ONLY TO LEAVE BEHIND SOME OF US?&#13;
&#13;
As you know by now, Washington's gay organizations have begun a series •-- *#&#13;
of legal actions, including a weekend picket, against the new:Lost and Found on&#13;
L Street, Southeast. Why? Because of flagrant discrimination against gay&#13;
blacks and women.&#13;
L &amp; F's racist policies were explicitly acknowledged by Bill Parry,&#13;
representing the Lost and Found management, in an October 15 meeting with Paul&#13;
Kuntzler of GAA, a 10-year veteran of the Washington gay movement. Parry&#13;
declared: "This is a Southern city." (A reference to when Washington had&#13;
legalized segregation twenty years ago.) He said that if possible, the Lost&#13;
and Found would bar all-black people, and clearly indicated that the principal -~&#13;
reason for L_&amp;_F's I.D- was to exclude as many gay blacks as- possible.&#13;
This is how the Lost and Found game is played: Two pieces of I.D. are&#13;
required, Parry says. A driver's license and a "passport or a birth certificate."&#13;
Such conventional identification as a"draft card or a government&#13;
employee I.D. card are not acceptable." However, generally only black gays are&#13;
asked for identification—whites are not, except those who actually appear&#13;
under age.&#13;
What are the objectives of the L &amp; F game? Parry intimated that the&#13;
Lost and Found is only interested in serving the most affluent gay crowd,&#13;
primarily white suburbia, (in a black ghetto!) Parry rationalizes that "black&#13;
people are generally poor and, besides, most of our patrons are bigots." In&#13;
any case, the Lost and Found does not want to cater to those gays, black or&#13;
white,"who spend only $2.25 a night in our bar."&#13;
Now, to answer two questions: It's true that some token blacks are seen&#13;
in the Lost and Found. The. bar has no choice but to admit those few blacks who&#13;
are willing to meet L &amp; F's I.D. requirements. It is also true that the I.D.s&#13;
of many whites are now being checked—as a temporary response to the picket&#13;
line outside.&#13;
However, Washington gay organizations are not interested in momentary&#13;
pretenses at non-discrimination. We will accept only their uncompromising&#13;
agreement to end all discrimination against all gay people--a resolution that&#13;
provides the necessary guarantees.&#13;
In regard to women, the Lost, and Found's double-standard dress requirement&#13;
for women will not be tolerated. If men can wear blue jeans, so too can&#13;
women.&#13;
Many of you have said that you think it distressing that homosexuals are&#13;
fighting one another. We agree. Let's resolve this conflict. We ask the Lost&#13;
and Found management to begin discussions with us.&#13;
We, too, think the Lost and Found is beautiful. We congratulate them.&#13;
And when they change their oppressive policies, the club will be even more&#13;
beautiful.&#13;
In addition, we are fully cognizant of their substantial investments&#13;
and the need to make a return and a good one. However, we will not allow them&#13;
to realize extravagant profits at the expense of the human dignity and freedom&#13;
of certain gay people.&#13;
£5&gt;&amp;T5S,&#13;
- 2&#13;
We who represent you in our struggle to improve the quality of gay life&#13;
have come belately:to the recognition that we are not just the defender of&#13;
white, male homosexuals, but the representative of all gay people. The Lost&#13;
and Found management will have to recognize, too, that the year is 1971; those&#13;
days when Washington was a "Southern city" are gone.&#13;
All of us, finally, should understand that either we are all together&#13;
or none of us is together. As gay people we have advanced too far to now&#13;
leave behind some of us who are black or female.&#13;
*•*##-*-*•#•#•*&#13;
The following Washington gay organizations request that the Lost and&#13;
Found end their racist, sexist, immoral, and illegal policies and implement&#13;
the list of our 10 demands necessary to resolve this conflict:&#13;

                  <text>In May 1972, Washington, DC's GLBT community celebrated its first Pride.  The previous two years, gays and lesbians had gone to New York City to celebrate the Stonewall anniversary.  In the winter of 1972, the Gay Liberation Front-DC proposed a local celebration, though they scheduled it a month and half before New York's  celebration so that people would not have to choose between the events.  DC's initial Pride celebration was as much a protest as a celebration, following almost exactly one year after Gay Mayday and the anti-war Mayday demonstrations had closed the streets of the city.&#13;

This marked the first public celebration of gay and lesbian pride in Washington DC.  Organized by the Gay Liberation Front, the festival drew support from All Souls Church, the Community Bookshop, the Gay Activists Alliance, the Gay People's Alliance of George Washington University, Henry Street (one of the houses of the Awards Club, a local drag organization) and the Metropole Cinema.  The principal organizers were Chuck Hall, Bruce Pennington, and Cade Ware.&#13;

                  <text>In May 1972, Washington, DC's GLBT community celebrated its first Pride.  The previous two years, gays and lesbians had gone to New York City to celebrate the Stonewall anniversary.  In the winter of 1972, the Gay Liberation Front-DC proposed a local celebration, though they scheduled it a month and half before New York's  celebration so that people would not have to choose between the events.  DC's initial Pride celebration was as much a protest as a celebration, following almost exactly one year after Gay Mayday and the anti-war Mayday demonstrations had closed the streets of the city.&#13;
&#13;
This marked the first public celebration of gay and lesbian pride in Washington DC.  Organized by the Gay Liberation Front, the festival drew support from All Souls Church, the Community Bookshop, the Gay Activists Alliance, the Gay People's Alliance of George Washington University, Henry Street (one of the houses of the Awards Club, a local drag organization) and the Metropole Cinema.  The principal organizers were Chuck Hall, Bruce Pennington, and Cade Ware.&#13;
&#13;
This collection includes materials from Gay Pride, Capital Pride, DC Black Pride, and other Pride-related festivals and events.</text>

The Friends collection includes poetry, music, interviews, candidate interviews, social and political commentary and analysis and accounts of the creation of community services and organizations. Rainbow History received a collection of more than 300 1/4inch acetate tape reels of varying diameters from Bruce Pennington, a founder of the Stonewall Nation Media Collective, which produced and broadcast the show at WGTB and WPFW.</text>

                  <text>The Friends Radio tape collection at Rainbow History covers nine years (1973 to 1982) of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer activism and community building in Washington, DC and around the nation. The Friends collection includes poetry, music, interviews, candidate interviews, social and political commentary and analysis and accounts of the creation of community services and organizations. Rainbow History received a collection of more than 300 1/4inch acetate tape reels of varying diameters from Bruce Pennington, a founder of the Stonewall Nation Media Collective, which produced and broadcast the show at WGTB and WPFW.</text>

                  <text>The Friends Radio tape collection at Rainbow History covers nine years (1973 to 1982) of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer activism and community building in Washington, DC and around the nation. The Friends collection includes poetry, music, interviews, candidate interviews, social and political commentary and analysis and accounts of the creation of community services and organizations. Rainbow History received a collection of more than 300 1/4inch acetate tape reels of varying diameters from Bruce Pennington, a founder of the Stonewall Nation Media Collective, which produced and broadcast the show at WGTB and WPFW.</text>

The Friends collection includes poetry, music, interviews, candidate interviews, social and political commentary and analysis and accounts of the creation of community services and organizations. Rainbow History received a collection of more than 300 1/4inch acetate tape reels of varying diameters from Bruce Pennington, a founder of the Stonewall Nation Media Collective, which produced and broadcast the show at WGTB and WPFW.</text>

                  <text>The 1987 March on Washington brought Latino lesbians and gays together from around the country and inspired new local, regional, and national organizations.   ENLACE: Washington, DC Metropolitan Area Latino Gay &amp;amp; Lesbian Coalition, DC's first political support organization for Latino gay men and Latina lesbians, had just been formed and the March gave it the impetus to grow as a force in the local community.  Some of those who had come to Washington for the March stayed on in the city and helped organize ENLACE: Washington D.C. Metropolitan Area Latino Gay &amp;amp; Lesbian Coalition.&#13;
&#13;
Until 1987, Latinos had no special voice to speak for them as Latinos in the LGBT community and as gays and lesbians in the Latino community.  Over the next eight years ENLACE spoke, acted, and created new standards in political and social representation of its members and in educating its community about HIV/AIDS.  ENLACE members were the first gay men and lesbians to march in the city's annual Hispanic parade.  They created HOLA GAY, the first Spanish language hotline.&#13;
&#13;
"Un grupo de apoyo para latinos gay ofrece la oportunidad para los que buscan discutir las preocupaciones que tenemos en comun incluyendo el SIDA, la familia, el auto-estima, las relaciones personales y la identidad gay.  Juntos podemos trabajar para encontar soluciones saludables con la asistencia de un moderador entrenado."&#13;
&#13;
A peer support group allows gay Latinos to come together to discuss common issues of AIDS/HIV, family relationships, identity and self-esteem.  Together, with the help of trained facilitators, we can find healthy solutions. &#13;
 &#13;
ENLACE defined itself as a political organization but it used social events to identify Latino gays and lesbians and to deliver its message of support.&#13;
&#13;
In April 1988, ENLACE introduced itself to the community with a reception at the Office of Latino Affairs.  From the outset, ENLACE (the word means "link") built coalitions and links to other organizations in both the gay and lesbian community and the Latino community.  In the wake of disturbances in the Mount Pleasant area, ENLACE presented its own analysis and recommendations to the commission investigating the events.  One of ENLACE's major contributions, of course, was its ground-breaking work in AIDS awareness and HIV education.&#13;
&#13;
With the DC Coalition of Black Lesbians, Gays, and Bisexuals, ENLACE sponsored social events.  It worked with the Latin American Task Force, the Whitman-Walker Clinic, and other social, political, and health organizations to ensure recognition and satisfaction of Latino gays and lesbians' needs.&#13;
&#13;
ENLACE held its first social event, La Fiesta Tropical, at the popular straight disco Cities.  Despite a slow start, the evening ended with a room packed with Latino men and women who learned for the first time of ENLACE's work.  La Fiesta Tropical became an annual event.  The group sponsored dances at Hill Haven, a lesbian club on Capitol Hill, at hotels in the Dupont area, and supported early Latino clubs such as El Faro.&#13;
&#13;
Noticias de Enlace, a monthly newsletter, chronicled much of ENLACE's organizational, political, and social development and is a primary source for ENLACE's activities and for insights into the concerns of Washington, D.C.'s Latino gay and lesbian population.&#13;
&#13;
The Rainbow History Project, through the kindness of former members of ENLACE presents many issues of the Noticias and event flyers (in .pdf format).  Unfortunately, the file size of Noticias issues has meant that we have had to offer some of them page by page, rather than in their entirety.  Also below are event flyers for ENLACE's social activities, as well as the group's report on the Mount Pleasant incidents.&#13;
&#13;

                  <text>In May 1972, Washington, DC's GLBT community celebrated its first Pride.  The previous two years, gays and lesbians had gone to New York City to celebrate the Stonewall anniversary.  In the winter of 1972, the Gay Liberation Front-DC proposed a local celebration, though they scheduled it a month and half before New York's  celebration so that people would not have to choose between the events.  DC's initial Pride celebration was as much a protest as a celebration, following almost exactly one year after Gay Mayday and the anti-war Mayday demonstrations had closed the streets of the city.&#13;
&#13;
This marked the first public celebration of gay and lesbian pride in Washington DC.  Organized by the Gay Liberation Front, the festival drew support from All Souls Church, the Community Bookshop, the Gay Activists Alliance, the Gay People's Alliance of George Washington University, Henry Street (one of the houses of the Awards Club, a local drag organization) and the Metropole Cinema.  The principal organizers were Chuck Hall, Bruce Pennington, and Cade Ware.&#13;
&#13;
This collection includes materials from Gay Pride, Capital Pride, DC Black Pride, and other Pride-related festivals and events.</text>

              <text>GAY PRIDE WEEK&#13;
We, the gay people of Washington, believe the time has&#13;
come to declare ourselves openly, clearly and uncompromisingly&#13;
as the proud and decent people we are. In America we are 20 million&#13;
strong. In Washington we are a spirited and talented community of&#13;
more than 80 thousand human beings. We are here to stay. We will&#13;
be heard.&#13;
Everywhere in Washington, we are subjected to varying&#13;
forms and degrees of dislikes and discrimination. In employment,&#13;
in schools, in the military, in government, in family and in social&#13;
life, the gay people of Washington are given a short measure of&#13;
human respect and understanding. This is wrong. We speak out now&#13;
to combat the ignorance and prejudice which surrounds us. We are here&#13;
to demand fair play.&#13;
Gay Pride is a celebration of our own community. We are a&#13;
wide variety of human profiles and backgrounds — women, men, blacks,&#13;
whites, leather people, drag people, conservatives, revolutionaries,&#13;
Aquarius children, devotees of establishment lifestyle — the gay&#13;
life contains worlds within worlds. We ourselves need to know one&#13;
another better, just as much as straight people need to come to know&#13;
us, for in unity and mutual understanding lie the future of&#13;
gay people.&#13;
Welcome to Gay Pride. Welcome to the gay community.&#13;
Welcome to the wonderful Rhinestone Review. Welcome to Now.&#13;

                  <text>The first Gay Liberation Front was founded in New York City shortly after the June 1969 Stonewall riots, as an offshoot of the homophile group the Mattachine Society of New York.  The Gay Liberation Front was a revolutionary organization dedicated to overthrowing a sexist, racist, capitalistic society by joining in coalition with other oppressed social groups, such as women, African Americans, the working classes, Chicanos and Latinos, and American Indians.  It also asked participants to engage in self-examination, often facilitated in the form of consciousness-raising groups, to rid themselves of their own internalized self-hatred, sexism, racism, and classism.  &#13;
&#13;
The Washington DC version of the Gay Liberation Front (DC GLF) was founded following a letter to the editor of the underground newspaper The Quicksilver Times.  This letter appeared in the June 9th-June 19th, 1970 edition and was written by Michael Yarr, an Air Force veteran and participant in local anti-Vietnam War groups.  It protested the paper’s derogatory use of the word “sucks” in a headline and called for the foundation of a DC Gay Liberation Front.  David Aiken, a local gay man who would go on to serve as Washington correspondent for The Advocate, work on the local LGBT Friends radio show from 1973-1982, chair the Washington Area Gay Community Council in the mid-1970s, and found the DC chapter of Black and White Men Together (BWMT), followed up with an editorial in the Quicksilver Times of June 23-July 3, 1970 discussing the proposed group.  DC GLF’s first meeting was held at Grace Episcopal Church in Georgetown on June 30, 1970.  Meetings between March and July 1971 were held at St. James Episcopal Church, after which formal public meetings are no longer held.  Meeting activity shifts to the GLF House at 1620 S St.&#13;
&#13;
DC GLF participated in a variety of political and social activities in Washington DC before fading after 1972.  Political activities included handing out thousands of “Are You a Homosexual?” awareness leaflets to passersby; protesting carding policies at DC gay bars that were biased against African Americans, women, or men in drag; disrupting an anti-gay Catholic psychiatrist’s speech during a conference on religion and the homosexual at Catholic University; protesting against the listing of homosexuality as a mental disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) during the American Psychiatric Association’s (APA) annual conference in 1971; participating in the Gay Mayday protests against the Vietnam War as part of the larger Mayday protests in May 1971; participating in both the Philadelphia plenary session (September 1971) and the Black Panthers’ Revolutionary People’s Constitutional Convention in DC (November 1971); protesting the expulsion of GLF members from the Zephyr Cocktail Lounge on the weekend of the RPCC; marching in Christopher Street Liberation Day parades in New York City; protesting police arrests of cruising gay men at Arlington’s Iwo Jima Memorial; and the formation of the first DC Gay Pride Week from May 2-7, 1972, organized by DC GLF members Chuck Hall, Bruce Pennington, and Cade Ware.&#13;
&#13;
Socially, many DC GLF activities centered around a house rented by members at 1620 S St. NW beginning in September 1970.  This house became the site not only of a GLF commune, but also helped to shelter gay people and activists in town from other cities and gay youth who had either run away or been turned out of their homes.  It was the site of the foundation of the Church of the Community of the Love of Christ, an orthodox Catholic congregation, and was eventually formally named the Gay Liberation Services House in April 1972, providing counseling, a referral service, a library, and a speakers bureau.  A combination of internal house tensions and the desire of certain members to engage in more explicitly political consciousness raising led to the formation of an offshoot commune, the Skyline Faggots Collective, in July 1971.  The Skyline Faggots Collective was first housed down the street at 1614 S St. NW and, from 1974-1976, at 1733 Q St. NW.  More public social activities included cosponsoring the first public gay dance in DC, held November 14, 1970 at St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, a boat cruise on the Potomac, and picnics in local parks.  Members of the Skyline Faggots also took trips to Shenandoah and Harpers Ferry, WV, the latter of which is documented in photos in the collection taken by Steve Behrens.&#13;
&#13;
A DC GLF reunion was held in April 1993 on the same weekend as the gay and lesbian March on Washington.  It was organized by Theodore Kirkland, a DC GLF member who would go on to found DC Gay Black Pride, and Bruce Pennington, who helped found the LGBT Friends radio program in 1973, the Gay People’s Alliance at George Washington University, the DC chapter of Black and White Men Together (BWMT), and was one of the first officially-sanctioned gay foster parents in DC.&#13;
