June 24, 1979
A viewer submitted copies of three images front and back of a Christopher Street Liberation Day demonstration that took place on June 24th, 1979.
In one photograph demonstrators carry a banner reading “I am gay and I love you – The Advocate Experience”. The back of the photo reads “What it’s all about!”
In the second photograph demonstrators are in front of a cathedral. The back reads: “Dignity” on the steps of the “Grand Closet”.
The final photograph shows the protesters which include a drag queen believed to be Mae West II (signed on the back). She carries a picket sign reading “Not every boy dreams of being a marine”.
