Description
Description
A meeting of the Gay and Lesbian Historical Society focusing on the importance of civil disobedience and featuring a panel discussion between four notable activists and organizers in the gay and lesbian liberation movement: Konstantin Berlandt, Arthur Evans, Eileen Hansen, and Ed Wire. Berlandt discusses his experience participating in the protest "Friday of the Purple Hand," and he speaks on when a demonstration becomes civil disobedience. Evans discusses his experience participating in the White Night Riots, and he distinguishes between a riot and an act of civil disobedience. Evans also speaks to his experience protesting at a local news affiliate. This material was digitized through the generous support of Larry Brenner and Angelo Figone.
