View source for Virtually all of the pioneers who now serve as icons of the lesbian and gay rights movement spoke at NAMLBA-sponsored forums

Mel Boozer, a Democratic Party star, and Frank Kameny, organizer of the world's first gay rights pickets in Washington, D.C., spoke at a NAMBLA membership conference in Baltimore. In 1982, Frank Kilhefner, co-founder and director of the Gay Community Center in Los Angeles, spoke at a NAMBLA meeting there. In time, virtually all of the pioneers who now serve as icons of the lesbian and gay rights movement spoke at NAMLBA-sponsored forums. Often, these men and women shared the stage with boys speaking about ageism and in defense of youth rights as well as eros - and from their point of view was simple common sense.<br>
