erin Garris on 19 Nov 13This site focuses on the first gay parade in 1970 in New York City. A group called the Gay Liberation Front created flyers for this historic event. This special day was called Liberation Day. The flyer's logo was an illustration of intertwined male on male and female on female symbols. The planning of this event took place shortly after the Stonewall Riots. The riots that took place at the Stonewall Inn in 1969 caused a split between gay activists. Some supported the violence and others were against the radical protests.
