ONE ■■■■ ■ LESBIANS & GAY MEN JOIN HANDS ACROSS NATION IN GREATEST SHOW OF UNITY IN HISTORY OF U S. By BEVERLY SLAPIN SAN FRANCISCO, June 28— It was festive as ever, with balloons and rainbow flags lining the length of Market Street, the outrageous Sisters o f Perpetual Indulgence mocking the church, and with Gays for Brunch, Gays Against Brunch, Les­ bians Against Brunch and Lesbians Against Pot- lucks marching and dancing to the beat of rock, jazz, salsa, and country music in the sunny San Francisco afternoon. But the theme of this year’s march, the tenth in San Francisco, since the Stonewall Rebellion in New York City, was “Front Line of Freedom,’ a recognition, as organizers said, “of our integrity and peril.” It was the largest and most political Lesbian/Gay Freedom Day Parade ever, accord­ ing to organizers and participants alike, a some 300,000, with 50 floats, and 160 contingents, marched from the Embarcadero to the Civic Cen­ ter, angrily denouncing the New Right’s threat to their existence. The chants and placards tliis year both de­ monstrated the Fighting spirit of a community under attack, as well as their willingness to “ex­ tend hands around the world to those struggling SAN FRANCISCO, June 28— Some 300,000 lesbians, gay mpn, and their supporters marched here today. The theme of this tenth commemoration of the Stonewall Rebellion was “ Front Line of freedom. for their rights.” Marches and rallies fo r gay and lesbian rights were held in cities coast to coast.t. “Tlie unions are behind you,” said one of the placards. Another; “Freedom’s road is paved with our resistance.” Another; “Guatemala pre­ sente en la lucha.” Another; Support the Irish hunger strikers— boycott BritLsh goods.” Visibly militant in the three-hour march was the Stonewall Contingent, whose band. Carry It On, played the “Internationale.” As the contin­ gent turned the corner of Spear and Market, to the applause and whoops of spectators, a loud chant went up of “We gotta beat/back/the Right's attack, we gotta beat/back/ the Right's attack, we gotta beat/back/the Right's attack!" Stonewall included the Committee in Soli­ darity with the People of El Salvador, Gay and Women’s Committee o f Casa Nicaragua, One Stru­ ggle Many Fronts, Lesbian and Gay Focus of ^ People’s Anti-War Mobilization, and Worker’s World Party.

  • Gay and Lesbian Pride Month June 5: World Environment Day June 19, 1865: Juneteenth
    JUNE Gay and Lesbian Pride Month Cities all over the world hold Gay Pride festivities on different dates in the month of June. Many cities choose the weekend closest to June 27-29 so that the celebration will coincide with the anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising. The Stonewall Rebellion of June 28, 1969 in New York City is widely recognized as the birthplace of the gay rights movement and is commemorated annually in gay communities around the world with pride parades and festivals. June 5: World Environment Day By resolution 2994 (XXVII) of December 15, 1972, the General Assembly designated June 5 as World Environment Day, to deepen public awareness of the need to preserve and enhance the environment. That date was chosen because it was the opening day of the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment (Stockholm1972), which led to the establishment of the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP). Twenty years later, the Assembly convened UNCED in Rio de Janeiro, where nations came together to take the decisions needed to rekindle the hopes of the 1972 Conference and to take up the challenges of a viable and equitable balance between environment and development and a sustainable future for the earth and its people. June 19, 1865: Juneteenth In 1863, the Emancipation Proclamation declared freedom for all slaves, but the end of slavery was a slow and localized process because communications weren't what they are today, and in many areas, there weren't enough Union troops present to enforce it. Such was the case in Galveston, Texas. Not until June 19, 1865, did Union soldiers land with news that the war had ended and that all slaves were now free.

    OCTOBER 1, 1980 S 'ali 5 fraiiri‘H*n Issue 107 (Eruaaììpr 'A iLiiilit nt' llm'ìrrtìlauììimji tor All 5frr r Police!”.....■»« ^1 ir> ^ ikirx r* n I /%iiu^ \y^i "POLICE? IN THE TENDERLOIN? YOU'VE GOTTA BE KID D IN G!" Where are the cops when being are being robbed, beaten, stabbed, and murdered in the Tenderloin? Where??? Residents, merchants, and those who work in the Central City area of the Tenderloin are at the “mercy” of the hundreds of thugs, drug addicts, thieves, and murderers who have descended upon the area from the East Bay which is conducting a hard crack down on the criminal element in those towns and cities. And they come to the Central City, because it is the poorest area of the city and it is the only area where you can get a cheap room, cruddy as it may be. The San Erancisco Police Department’s only response to the drastic rise in violent crime in the Central City, is to say “We don t have enough men and women.” Really? is the response to that typical SFPD excuse for their incompetence. Eor the residents and mer­ chants of the Central City know that the SEPD has a Vice/Morals Squad that has nothing better to do than to harass gays in the Cen­ tral City and in the Polk area. Violent crime is up over two hundred percent over last year and most of these go unreported, for waiting for a police car is like wait­ ing for a turtle caravan to pass.

  • The Marijuana Holiday 4/20 Has Become Big Business, but Is That
    B U S I NC EA SN SN A B I S The Marijuana Holiday 4/20 Has Become Big Business, But Is That Good For The Cannabis Movement? B J Y O E L @ O N W A RJN E OR E L M W A R N E R 0 4 / 2 0 / 1 6 A T 4 : 2 0 A M Heavy snow in Colorado this past weekend put a damper on the celebrations leading up to 4/20, the annual April 20 celebration of all things marijuana-related that occurs on Wednesday this year. On Saturday, organizers scrapped a major cannabis rally in downtown Denver at the last minute, and hundreds of flight cancellations at Denver International Airport frustrated the plans of travelers aiming to spend the week sampling the state’s legal cannabis market in honor of the cannabis high holiday. But that didn’t mean folks weren’t still ready to pre-party. On Saturday afternoon, customers lined up in the lobby of Simply Pure, a Denver recreational marijuana shop, since the shop’s “4/20 Block Party” product specials (one-gram joints for $4.20 and other deals) had filled the retail space to capacity. As customers from as far away as Washington, D.C., sniffed at sample jars filled with cannabis strains, a sales representative from Incredibles, a marijuana edibles company, manned a nearby display table, handing out branded pens and lighters and promoting the virtues of the company’s spiked chocolate bars. “It’s great if you drop it into your coffee,” he told a prospective customer.
