                <text>Nancy Tucker moved with her family to the DC metro area in the late 1950s when her father was hired at the Pentagon. In 1966, while a student at Mary Washington University, Tucker learned of The Mattachine Society of Washington from gay newspapers coming out from San Francisco. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Upon turning twenty-one, Tucker applied for membership. At the time, the Mattachine Society preached concepts of civil libertarianism, in which homosexuals would receive their civil rights upon proving they were assimilated, upstanding citizens. However, the 1969 Stonewall riots (and the birth of the gay liberation movement) quickly began changing the face of gay&lt;br /&gt;activism in DC. During this time, The Mattachine Society of Washington asked Tucker if she would be the co-editor of a community newspaper for the DC gay community. Tucker agreed,&lt;br /&gt;and thus the famous Washington Blade was born. Tucker ran the Blade for several years–often as an entirely self-funded endeavor–and provided an invaluable resource to the DC gay&lt;br /&gt;community in the early 1970s. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Although Tucker was involved in various activist groups during this time (often through her role as editor of the Blade), she found it difficult to find her place in these burgeoning movements, as she was uncomfortable with both the radical separatism of the women’s liberation movement as well as the misogyny of majority-male groups such as the Gay Liberation Front. By the mid-70s, Tucker handed off the Blade to others in the community, and left the world of gay activism. Tucker became re-involved in the DC gay community in the late 1980s via the Gay Women’s Alternative (where she eventually became president), and helped organize their programming around the wildly popular topics of “sex and shrinks.” In her later years, Tucker moved to San Francisco with her partner, and ultimately retired in Albuquerque.</text>

                <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;In 1967, Nancy Tucker was a young college student in DC interested in meeting other openly gay people. Having heard about the Mattachine Society of Washington through gay newspapers coming out of San Francisco, she contacted the group and interviewed for membership. At the time, the Mattachine Society–led by pioneering LGBT activists such as Frank Kameny, Eva Freund, and Lilli Vincenz–preached concepts of civil libertarianism, in which homosexuals would receive their civil rights upon proving they were assimilated, upstanding citizens. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;However, Tucker describes how the mood began to change in 1969, when the Stonewall Riots kickstarted the Gay Liberation movement. This tension between liberationist and assimilationist politics led to The Mattachine Society of Washington starting a publication, initially with the intention of communicating civil libertarianism to the gay community in Washington. Tucker was chosen as one of the editors, and thus the famous &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Washington Blade &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;was born&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Tucker describes how the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Blade &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;soon became an important newspaper for the gay community. Distributed at various gay spots throughout DC, it communicated not only general news about the community, but also roommate referral services, warnings of police entrapment, and eventually news about even the more previously underground LGBT communities, such as the drag and leather communities. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;As the liberation movements of the late 60s and 70s grew in popularity, Tucker describes how it became increasingly difficult to find her own place in them. She was uncomfortable with both the misogyny of the overwhelmingly gay male Gay Liberation Front, as well as the radical feminism of lesbian separatist groups such as The Furies Collective. Tucker left the gay activist community in the mid-1970s, passed on the publishing of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;The Washington Blade&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt; to others, and subsequently became more involved with AA and gay AA groups. In the late 80s, however, Tucker re-entered the community via the Gay Women’s Alternative and OWLS (Older Wiser Lesbians), and enjoyed creating lesbian spaces with lectures, potlucks, dances, and other community programming. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                <text>In this interview, Louis Hughes, a native Baltimorean, recounts his experiences within DC’s African-American LGBTQ community during the 1970s and 1980s. Hughes, who came out in&lt;br /&gt;the mid-1970s, soon discovered Washington to be an exciting center of African-American gay life. Hughes joined many other Black Baltimoreans who were involved in gay activism and&lt;br /&gt;community life in DC. He routinely commuted to DC to dance at the famed ClubHouse, and discover innovative Black artists at the ENIKAlley Coffeehouse (such as Thurlow Tibbs and Essex Hemphill). He also served as co-chair of the National Black Coalition of Black Lesbians and Gays, organized the 1979 Third World Lesbian and Gay Conference, and advised Howard&lt;br /&gt;University’s pioneering gay-rights student organization Lambda Alliance. Later, he refocused his activism within Baltimore, working on a gay rights bill at the Baltimore City Council, and serving as a peer advisor at Morgan State University. By the end of the interview, Hughes laments the loss of historic LGBTQ spots in DC, and wonders if DC culture is inherently more superficial and fleeting than the more deep-rooted community organizations that grow within Baltimore.</text>

Each interview in this collection has a narrator telling the story and a documenter guiding the process. &#13;
&#13;
Collected since the founding of the RHP, this collection is growing and is open to researchers. &#13;

                <text>&lt;strong&gt;Audio 1&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;br /&gt;In this transcript, Peter Edwards shares his experiences of living as a member of the LGBTQ+ community in Washington DC. He discusses his journey of coming out as a gay man and finding a sense of community and acceptance in DC, while conversely sharing his experiences as an insecure gay teenager struggling with his sexuality in the 1980s. Despite the challenges, Edwards found community in the now-defunct gay rodeo, country western dancing, and the Lesbian and Gay chorus of Washington. The conversation also touches upon dating in DC. Overall, the transcript highlights the challenges and joys of living as a member of the LGBTQ+ community in Washington DC and the importance of finding a sense of community and acceptance. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Audio 2&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;br /&gt;In this transcript, Peter Edwards discusses his involvement with Dignity DC, an organization for Catholic LGBTQ+ individuals. Edwards talks about the history of Dignity, including its origins and its move from Georgetown University to St. Margaret Episcopal Church. He shares his personal experiences attending Dignity, emphasizing the sense of belonging he felt and the importance of the organization for LGBTQ+ individuals who may feel alone or isolated. Edwards also discusses the activities and outreach efforts of Dignity, such as participating in local Pride events, organizing community dinners, and providing support during times of tragedy. Additionally, Edwards expresses commitment to the organization through his role as a leader within the community. Finally, Edwards mentions the challenges faced by Dignity in attracting younger members and diversifying the congregation, and emphasizes the ongoing need for a safe and welcoming space for LGBTQ+ individuals within the Catholic faith. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Audio 3&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;br /&gt;In this transcript, Peter Edwards discusses his involvement with the gay switchboard in the 1980s. The gay switchboard provided information and support to the LGBTQ+ community at a time when resources like the internet and smartphones did not exist. They operated a phone line, offering information on bars, social opportunities, and roommate connections. The switchboard also focused on peer counseling, providing a safe space for people to talk about their feelings and struggles. Peter reflects on the importance of the switchboard in helping individuals who felt lost or isolated, as well as the impact it had on his own life as a gay man in Washington, D.C. Overall, the conversation highlights the vital role the gay switchboard played in the LGBTQ+ community during a time of limited resources and social acceptance. It provided a supportive and anonymous outlet for people to seek information, connection, and guidance. The transcript also underscores the shift in communication and support with the advent of the internet, while acknowledging the continued need for human connection and understanding in today's digital age.</text>

                <text>Lampos grew up in Northern Virginia and went to college at the University of Virginia before moving to the district. He talked about how, when he was in college, gay groups had started popping up and he joined the one at UVA. They had regular meetings and scheduled big dances to create and celebrate community, even though many of these people were not out to family or even friends at the time. &#13;
&#13;
After moving to DC, Lee looked for ways to get connected with and involved in the gay community and found out about the gay and lesbian switchboard, a phone hotline staffed by volunteers to share information about gay-friendly places, activities, businesses, and services. The switchboard was founded in the 7ps but Lampos joined in the late 80s when a lot of people were getting involved. Both men and women worked at the switchboard, with volunteer numbers getting up to 40+ at the peak of operations in the mid 1980s. &#13;
&#13;
Lee listed a few of the locations the switchboard worked out of before shutting down in the late 90s. These included a community center at 17th &amp; R streets, another community center int eh early 90s at Massachusetts and N street, they also had trainings at the director’s house on Logan Circle and Rhode Island Avenue and moved to yet another community center on M &amp; 18th street before getting their own office in an old high rise building at 16th and P streets. &#13;
&#13;
Lampos discussed how the switchboard became a conduit for all kinds of resources and information about and for the gay and lesbian community in DC and shared a list of restaurants, bars, and businesses that were gay friendly from the 80s to the early 2000s. These included Lambda Rising, Freddy’s, The Eagle, The Green Lantern, Rummington’s, The Phase, Llamas Bookstore, and Banana Cafe. Volunteers utilized publications like The Blade and the gay yellow pages, as well as tips from community members to put together their notebook of resources. They also created an official guidebook for the community as well, and attended conferences with other gay and lesbian hotline workers in New York City. &#13;
&#13;
Not only did the switchboard provide information and point people in the direction of the resources they needed, the volunteers were also available to talk people through other general problems of being a gay person at the time - coming out, relationship problems, talking with community members, dealing with AIDS in the community, and much more. &#13;
&#13;
When asked why a lot of the gay bars, restaurants, and other businesses have since closed, Lee talk through how the community has come a long way and we no longer need as many specific places that are gay-friendly, because most places are gay-friendly. Although he lamented the loss of these secret, under-the-radar type spaces, Lee talked about how just in his lifetime he went from being nervous when seeing two men holding hands in public to that being accepted and normal in most of our everyday lives. </text>

                <text>In her interview, Tania Abdulahad discusses her life in DC and the DC Gay and Lesbian community, particularly her work with the Sapphire Sapphos and later her more recent work with the DC school system. Arriving in Washington DC in 1978, Abdulahad recounts her contributions to various social activist groups and especially highlights her relations to artist and social developments in the city. Prodimently through the Sapphire Sapphos, Abdulahad made strides across multiple different organizations in the 80’s and 90’s. She also reflects on her life and the world today, and the loss of tolerance and acceptance that has grown in the past five years, setting back many social justice movements.</text>

                <text>Ebone provides us a brief story of finally coming into form with her true self-identification, as well as the mental trials and tribulation that came with letting those she cares about most about her true identity. She also tells us about the fund-raising sentiments she has either occupied herself with or even started on her own. With the advice of many others in her circle, Ebone started TAGG Magazine, which has helped her voice her perspective on proper out-reach sentiments that will help extend LGBT representation beyond its interpretations provided by solely white men. Ebone’s magazine attempts also serve as a testament to “moving forward within your community,” by practicing intentionality and proper representation.</text>

              <text>Born in New Jersey in 1987 &#13;
Moved to Manchester, NH at 10&#13;
Moved to Washington DC in 2006 for college at Georgetown.&#13;
Family&#13;
More interested in politics than her family.  Family is very supportive of her agitating.&#13;
1 older sister.&#13;
Mother did a lot of odd jobs.&#13;
Dad in sales for MCI/Verizon&#13;
Georgetown&#13;
Wrote for the Georgetown Independent&#13;
While she was a student there was a hate crime against a LGBT student and there was 1 university sponsored person to support the students afterwards.&#13;
At Georgetown, she was involved in the LGBT activism as an ally until her senior year.&#13;
As an ally, it felt like gay and queer students were at the margins.  &#13;
There was one group called GU Pride that organized events but it was mostly white gay men.&#13;
Queer women organized a lot around the Women’s Collective because GU Pride didn’t feel like it represented their needs.&#13;
GU can appear very homogeneous from the outside and not gay positive.&#13;
The administration would accept and tolerate but not necessarily support.  After this incident the university president, who was the first layperson of a Catholic University in the U.S.  He stood up and said that we can and should support the LGBT community.&#13;
A LGBTQ resource center was created.  As the director of the resource center, "Shiva" Subbaraman made a point to enlist the support for the Center from all of the Jesuit priests.&#13;
She realized how much the culture had shifted at her Lavender Graduation, when Kara Swisher, a tech reporter in the San Francisco Bay Area, came back to speak and talked about not being back since the 80’s because of how toxic the environment had been.  Also at that time, GU Pride was suing the administration for acknowledgement of their organization.&#13;
Now there are 2 full time employees, large alumni community, bring speakers to campus, hold parties.&#13;
Journalism&#13;
After working at Georgetown for a few years and getting her graduate degree, she interned at NPR on the Arts desk.&#13;
Moved to Washington City Paper as the Arts Editor.  Found that the pieces that spoke to her the most were those that had to do with gender, identity and justice issues.&#13;
Amanda Hess left her beat at Slate and Christina saw it as an opportunity to write about a broad range of topics (science, arts, etc) through a lens of gender.&#13;
Writes 2-3 pieces a day, generally more opinion pieces that flesh out the story after the major story breaks on national day.&#13;
Loss of Queer Spaces&#13;
Where the Girls Go - Defunct blog that was an events calendar that aggregated all the events for queer women in DC.&#13;
Another gay blog, The New Gay&#13;
Created a number of one off gay parties&#13;
Hosted a number of the parties at The Islander, a DC restaurant&#13;
‘Blast-off’&#13;
‘Honey I Shrunk the Kids’&#13;
Would charge a cover to keep random people out for safety.&#13;
Still host one during the Summer called ‘Overeasy’ &#13;
Phase I&#13;
Long narrow bar with stage opposite, dark, poor sound system&#13;
Did Jell-o wrestling in a big inflatable pool with jello (industrial gel)&#13;
MC - Stacy Lockerman (sp?)&#13;
Pride&#13;
Wrote an article about the commercialism of Pride.&#13;
Fear for a community that loses its capacity for protest.  Getting married was the one issue a lot of gay people and there are still a lot of the other issues with which queer people struggle.&#13;
Coming Out &amp; Early Years&#13;
Dated a Transgender person as her first relationship - Presented as femme with a transgender man.  The relationship was very queer but looked like a straight couple in public.  Her partner had mostly straight friends and she wanted a queer community.&#13;
Large family - some were supportive some weren’t&#13;
Parents took it hard at first but are very accepting especially since meeting her current partner.&#13;
Activism&#13;
Black Lives Matter vigils&#13;
Vigil after the Orlando shooting&#13;
Message for youth today&#13;
There’s no right path.  Things will make sense when you look back on them but things never make sense when you are trying to look forward and plot out your life.</text>

Anne Q. Scott was born outside of Boston, MA, on January 29, 1982.  In this Rainbow History Project (RHP) oral history Scott briefly discusses her background and life at Mount Holyoke College before graduation and relocation to the Washington, DC area (Alexandria, VA) in 2004.  Scott discusses her interests in moving to the District and her introduction to the city and its gay community.  The largest part of the interview involves Scott’s involvement (2005-2012) in Capital Pride and the different entities that managed the annual LGBT pride festival. She documents the transition period (2007-2009) of Capital Pride management from the Whitman-Walker Clinic (clinic) to the Capital Pride Alliance (Alliance).  As a founding member of the Alliance, Anne discusses the clinic’s Capital Pride Request for Proposal (RFP) process and her expertise in non-profit finance.  Scott explains the Alliance’s transition from RFP candidate to Capital Pride steward and subsequent years of the festival.  Scott closes the oral history reflecting on changes in the city and the gay community during her years in the District.  &#13;

&#13;
Brown focuses on her business career at the Washington Blade newspaper, and begins with a description of her ancestral ties to North America's early European settlers. She came out as a lesbian in 1974 at Syracuse University, where she found strong acceptance partly rooted in the period's feminist politics. Brown moved to DC in 1977 in search of a local lesbian community she had started to discover through a college girlfriend and the publication "off our backs." She joined a car dealership and met the local activist Mary-Helen Mautner as a customer; Mautner introduced the young saleswoman to lesbian gathering places including the Owl and Tortoise, the Bachelor's Mill and Phase 1, and to several feminist theorists behind the journal,"Quest: A Feminist Quarterly." Brown became involved with groups that included the Lesbian and Gay Chorus of Washington, the DC Area Feminist Chorus (later renamed Bread and Roses), and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, where she served as treasurer on the board of directors. The Blade hired Brown for an advertising sales role in 1984, after she had returned to DC from a costly one-year stay in San Diego with another girlfriend. Shannon Rodes, the sales manager who recruited Brown, soon resigned from her position so the women could begin a relationship that remains ongoing. &#13;
&#13;
Brown discusses the Blade office's culture; the classified section's critical role in connecting readers over the 1980s and 1990s; and the struggle to sustain revenue as Craigslist and social media applications gained prominence. She touches intermittently on subjects that include local Pride celebrations in the 1980s; the prominent gay nightclub Tracks; ambivalence over her business career as an avowed critic of capitalist institutions; and business disruptions linked to the 2001 anthrax mailings. The firm Window Media purchased the Blade from the newspaper's employees in May 2001, and Brown details an intensive staff and community campaign to save the newspaper after the company moved to halt its publication in November 2009. They published as the "D.C. Agenda" until April 2010, when staff members retook ownership of the "Blade" brand. She concludes by considering the future of newspapers and of "the gay community," and by describing efforts to digitize the Blade's sizable archive.</text>

                <text>Long time journalist with Washington’s premiere LGBTQ news source, The Washington Blade, Lou Chibbaro discusses his time in D.C. and experience writing for and within the community. Coming to the District for school in the early 70’s, Chibbaro’s passion for public policy empowered him to stay. Coming out of graduate school he worked for the American Public Power Association, writing about environmental and energy issues. Shifting from this to LGBTQ issues in the 70’s and early 80’s, Chibbaro began as a freelance writer for the Blade while concurrently working with the popular Gay and Lesbian stations Friends Radio and service as an officer for the Gay and Lesbian Activists Alliance, often taking on the pseudonym Lou Romano, in order to protect his identity. Throughout his time in Washington, Chibbaro has been and continues to be an activist and an involved journalist, still working for the Blade today.</text>

                <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Earl Fowles moved to Washington DC from New York in 1996 for a position in Damien Ministries and at the encouragement of his friends in DC. His friend, Christopher Bates, connected him to several people and organizations that he became involved in, such as the DC Care Coalition where he served as a board member. He succeeded Carlene Cheatam as president of DC Capital Pride in 1997. He remained in that role for three years. He then became president of the National Federation of Black Prides (the predecessor of today’s International Federation of Black Prides). Upon leaving that role, he served as co-chair of the Community Prevention Group, an advisory body for DC’s Agency for HIV/AIDS (AHA). In that role, he advised AHA on how to spend monies provided by the CDC for the prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:400;"&gt;Fowlkes preferred “behind the scenes” activism; continuing dialogue and managing follow-up activities long past marches, demonstrations, and events. Key events that he did attend include the AIDS Memorial Quilt display on the National Mall in 1992 and 1996, the latter in which he participated by reading a selection of names of those represented in the quilt. Other topics covered include: His work of getting DC’s Pride organizations with similar missions to talk to each other and learn from each other; The importance of patience in nonprofit work and how progress is propelled by a small committed group of activists; DC institutional culture and how to make career civil servants in hospitals, prisons, police, and other community services care about LGBT issues; His personal life, including where he goes to socialize in DC and Atlanta; and the inception of a DC-area archive for saving items from the prides and other LGBTQ+ activism, and archivists interested in volunteering.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                <text>Donald Burch III is an African American from Detroit. Donald tested positive for HIV in 1985. His disease seems to have very little to no effect on the influentiality he wishes his life to have, as he continues to strive for prosperous opportunities beyond his home in Detroit. Upon his relief of his military duties due to the awareness of his disease, he unsurprisingly makes way to Washington DC. Faith Temple becomes a common place of reference for Donald, for it had been the place he claims to be his place of worship and shelter when he was most unfortunate. Donald also discusses things such as where he went for fun, how he made friends and the places they went, his love life, and what he did to give back to the community.</text>

Collected since the founding of the RHP, this collection is growing and is open to researchers. &#13;
&#13;
All interviews have been digitized and are described in the catalog; only some of them have transcripts available. &#13;
&#13;
None of the interviews stream online.  To obtain access to an interview, you must request by contacting us directly, providing a brief description of your project and your research interests.  Our email address is:  info AT rainbowhistory DOT org&#13;
&#13;
One of our team will share the file from our Google Drive, and you can listen from home.  Please be sure to have "Music Player for Google Drive" enabled on your machine to play the recording.  www.driveplayer.com&#13;

                <text>Carlene Cheatam moved from New York to Washington, D.C. with a friend in the 1970s to try and find a job. Through that process, she began digging out a community through softball, which led to her beginning to be political active. Cheatam was first involved with organizing through the Black community. She was involved with the creation of the National Black&#13;
Independence Party and involved with Operation PUSH. The D.C. Coalition of Black Gays was her entrance into queer issues in an organizing lens. She would go to the coffeehouse to hang out with other queer people and be social, talk about political issues and rights. She was a member of Saphire Sapphos, a queer women’s group. This was the first time being political in her life, and Cheatam was one of the few women politically active in queer issues at the time. This meant she easily slipped into leadership roles in these organizations. She was co-chair of both the D.C. Coalition and the Eleanor Roosevelt small Democratic Club. Despite all of these roles, Cheatam views herself as an organizer not a political person. She prefers to make things work, to do work, than to play the political game.&#13;
&#13;
In 1983, she coordinated the annual DC Capital Pride, working on outreach to people of color in the community. Previously, the event had been mostly white people, and she was looking to change that. After her experience there, she contributed and worked on outreach for the Black Pride Experience. Cheatam describes this job as her favorite, stating she is proud of her work and success with this job. The initial objective of the organization was to raise money to HIV/AIDS organizations that were helping the black community. She was the coordinator in 1991, and raised $11k to give to HIV/AIDS organizations. Cheatam also mentioned that she thinks the current administration of this organization does not see the value of giving back, focusing instead on throwing a party and using the money raised for that.&#13;
&#13;
After organizing, she worked for D.C. Mayor Williams. She worked on his campaign and worked in his administration as gay and lesbian outreach director and then in the Department of Human Services. Cheatam mentioned that she believes they were not utilizing the office in the best way, instead prioritizing politics over real outreach efforts. When asked about men and women working together, she talks about it being more difficult for women to fit into organizing and queer spaces. She talks about women having children or other responsibilities. Men, even gay men, have privilege. They take over social situations, etc. She also talked about intersectionalist and hierarchy in media. She stated that we needed an Ellen before we could have a black gay person on tv.</text>

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>Page 4 June 23-July 3, 1970 Quicksilver Times Gay Liberation&#13;
CslA£ I tt?&amp; to&#13;
by d. ail^en&#13;
, The "gay l i b e r a t i o n movement has&#13;
f i n a l l y reached Washington.&#13;
People who identify themselves&#13;
\as homosexuals and who want t o openly&#13;
confront the repression they feel&#13;
came "out of the closets and into the&#13;
s t r e e t s " long ago in other major&#13;
c i t i e s such as New York, Los Angeles,&#13;
§an Francisco, and Chicago.&#13;
• ' T h i s week (June 22-28) is Gay&#13;
Pride Week, ft marks the f i r s t anniversary&#13;
of the. "Christopher Street&#13;
R i o t s , " when the gay brothers and&#13;
s i s t e r s of New York City fought off&#13;
a gang of cops who were trying to&#13;
bust a Greenwich Village gay bar.&#13;
This was the event in which gay people&#13;
f i r s t "came out" and t o l d Puritan&#13;
Amerika t o shove off. The anniversary&#13;
is being celebrated in&#13;
c i t i e s across the country.&#13;
I t takes a while for such consciousness&#13;
to reach our n a t i o n 's&#13;
k a p i t a l , i t seems, but things are&#13;
now moving. The last issue of Quicks&#13;
i l v e r carried a l e t t e r from Mike&#13;
Yarr, an ex-Air Force member who&#13;
works for the Washington Peace Cent&#13;
e r , inviting homosexuals interested&#13;
in forming a Gay Lib group to get&#13;
in touch with him. Many did. A&#13;
meeting for everybody who is interested&#13;
in helping get such a group&#13;
together has been scheduled for&#13;
Tuesday, June 30, at 8pm in Georgetown&#13;
University annex.&#13;
Some of the aspects of the repression&#13;
felt by gay people are obvious.&#13;
They are faced in a l l states&#13;
except I l l i n o i s with archaic "sodomy&#13;
laws" which, although seldom&#13;
enforced, contribute to a furtiveness&#13;
and paranoia about human relationships&#13;
which should be open and&#13;
free. (Even in I l l i n o i s , which repealed&#13;
i t s "sodomy law" more or&#13;
less by accident, pips use any number&#13;
of pretexts to bust gay bars&#13;
which don't pay enough protection&#13;
money.&#13;
Gay people usually try to conceal&#13;
t h e i r o r i e n t a t i o n from t h e ir&#13;
employers rather than take the&#13;
r i sk of being fired. Not all employers&#13;
would do so, of course, but&#13;
even a person who i s generally liberal&#13;
can have a blind dread of homosexuals.&#13;
Finally, gay people usually&#13;
have a h e l l of a time finding other&#13;
gay people. Relatively few gay&#13;
| people walk around with l i t t le&#13;
pink booties, lavender lace blouses,&#13;
and limp w r i s t s , so i t ' s hard to'&#13;
identify who's gay. Most guys don't&#13;
have the chutzpah to walk up to&#13;
another guy and say, "Hey buddy, ya&#13;
wanna fuck?"&#13;
So most gays are forced to&#13;
seek t r i c k s e i t h e r in dangerously&#13;
public places (parks, t o i l e t s , etc.)&#13;
or in one of the ghettoized bars,&#13;
a l l of which must pay off the pigs&#13;
and many (though somehow not a l l ) of&#13;
which charge outrageous prices for&#13;
watered drinks and have a typical at-&#13;
'"V '*A&gt;~&#13;
mosphere of forced f r i v o l i t y.&#13;
In a word, the gay piers on lives&#13;
in a ghetto without boundaries. He&#13;
lives among the s t r a i g h t s , but in his&#13;
head h e ' s an outsider.&#13;
Naturally, these forms of repression&#13;
must be fought. Laws must be&#13;
changed, firings of gay people must&#13;
be protested, overpriced gay bars must&#13;
be boycotted and social events must&#13;
be arranged where gay people as well&#13;
as s t r a i g h t people can meet each other&#13;
in a relaxed atmosphere. These are&#13;
some of the things Gay Lib groups&#13;
in other c i t i e s have done.&#13;
But an even more basic need&#13;
would remain even i f all these things&#13;
somehow were accomplished. That is&#13;
the need for s e l f - r e s p e c t.&#13;
I t ' s no surprise that the&#13;
" s t r a i g h t world" expresses i t s dread&#13;
of homosexual feelings with repressive&#13;
t a c t i c s . What is really t r a g i c,&#13;
however, is that those who experience&#13;
these feelings accept the prevalent&#13;
notion that they are unspeakable dirt&#13;
y , e v i l , and s i n f u l , and repress&#13;
themselves.&#13;
A s o c i a l psychologist named&#13;
Martin Hoffman has written a righton&#13;
book t i t l e d "Hie Gay World," in&#13;
which he looks at, among other&#13;
things, the problem most male homosexuals&#13;
feel in developing a lasting,&#13;
deep relationship with another guy&#13;
t h a t ' s not b u i l t exclusively on sex.&#13;
He says:&#13;
"To put the matter in its most&#13;
si rrrp le. te ZWB t , We t re as ons the males&#13;
who are homostfculaly inclined' cannot•••'&#13;

social constraint that is not really&#13;
to be expected, except in a.few. , ••'&#13;
[cases. " ' ''• • •': • "' ' \- "'••'''&#13;
Well, t h a t ' s where Gay Lib .-.'.&#13;
comes in, folks. ^ Gay is Good.&#13;
There's no reason why men shouldn't&#13;
be close to men, and women to women,&#13;
in a l a s t i n g , loving way. But there's&#13;
a hell of a lot of internal hang&#13;
ups to overcome before this can&#13;
happen.&#13;
That's why we need a group:&#13;
Everybody who needs to come to&#13;
grips with t h e i r feelings, and with&#13;
the repression they feel in a&#13;
society which demands conformity, can&#13;
use a l i t t l e help from t h e i r friends.&#13;
We want to reach all the people&#13;
in the area who have homosexual feelings,&#13;
whether or not they're ready to&#13;
come out and identify themselves as&#13;
"gay." I t ' s hard to recognize and&#13;
deal with desires and feelings that&#13;
you've been taught are dreadful and&#13;
unnatural. But i t ' s important to&#13;
r e a l i z e that they're not "unnatural,"&#13;
that you're not "sick" because you&#13;
feel them, and that psychiatrists who&#13;
say something like "all the homosexuals&#13;
I see are sick" are leaving out&#13;
the other side: all of the heterosexuals&#13;
they see are probably sick,&#13;
too.&#13;
I t ' s especially important that&#13;
gay women get together as well as&#13;
j gay men. There's already enough male&#13;
chauvinism among heterosexuals; a gay&#13;
movement shouldn't contribute to it&#13;
by concerning i t s e l f only with male&#13;
homosexuality. Women will almost&#13;
c e r t a i n l y want to have t h e i r own&#13;
separate rap sessions, but there's&#13;
a lot that gay men and gay women can&#13;
do together.&#13;
Gay people are perhaps the last&#13;
oppressed group to get themselves&#13;
together. Blacks, Indians, Puerto&#13;
Ricans, women - everybody's getting&#13;
organized. I t ' s time for gays t o surface,&#13;
join with t h e i r comrades (both&#13;
gays and right-on s t r a i g h t s ) and&#13;
fight repression in a l l forms.&#13;
If you want to rap with somebody&#13;
about the idea of gay l i b , call&#13;
Mike Yarr during the day at 234-&#13;
2000, or at night phone Dave Aiken&#13;
at 234-4287 or Miles Gritz at 965-&#13;
2734.&#13;
