About a dozen members of the New Orleans Gay Liberation picketed City Hall Saturday to protest alleged harassment of homosexuals by the New Orleans Police Department. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“We will march daily until we get redress and satisfaction,” said Rev. David Solomon, a member of the Gay Liberation Front, a national homosexual organization. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The liberation front members estimated there are 75,000 homosexual men and women in New Orleans and that many are bullied by police. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“The people in the core group are not ashamed to show their faces or use names,” said Lynn Miller, another member of GLF. &lt;br /&gt;Solomon said the group intends to file every suit possible to gain right for homosexuals in New Orleans.</text>

              <text>&lt;h4&gt;Gay Front Fails to Meet Mayor.&lt;/h4&gt;
Members of the Gay Liberation Front in New Orleans Monday attempted to meet with Mayor Moon Landrieu at City Hall, but the mayor had other things to do. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some 20 members of the group which Saturday had picketed City Hall seeking what they called “liberation” for homosexuals, turned up at City Hall again at noon Monday seeking an audience with Mayor Landrieu. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They carried signs bearing such slogans as, “Live the Life You Love,” “No More Police Prosecution of Gays,” and “We are Homosexuals and Proud.” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the group were several woman and some of the men wore flashy attire and drank carrot juice., while others wore more conventional clothing. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The march to City Hall was led by the Rev. David Solomon, who identified himself as a Pentecostal clergyman. The Rev. Philip Schmidt, who identified himself as a Bodhi Slaa clergyman and chair of the New Orleans GLF, complained that since the late 1950’s legal restrictions against homosexuals have tightened up in New Orleans, creating what he called a “period of intense suppression.”</text>

Council on Religion and the Homosexual (Founder's Award)&#13;
&#13;
Established as a result of a conference in Mill Valley in 1964, the Council on Religion and the Homosexual (CRH) brought together concerned clergy and activists from the local homophile movement and helped launch a wide-ranging reassessment of traditional religious concepts about human sexuality. The Council pioneered a model of radical change based on coalition politics across lines of difference: class, gender, race, sexuality, and religion. The Council sponsored talks at various seminaries; brought priests, ministers and bishops to the Tenderloin for their first direct contact with homosexuals and the prejudices faced by them; and exercised a quiet and profound effect on hundreds of key clergy throughout the nation. The Council's work led directly to the first celebrated same-gender unions, the first openly gay ordained ministers, the first queer-friendly Christian church (the Metropolitan Community Church), one of the first college-level human sexuality academic studies in the United States (at San Francisco State University), and one of the first and most influential human sexuality education programs, originally part of the original National Drug and Sex Forum, the Institute for the Advance Study of Human Sexuality. The work of the CRH involved mainly the Methodist, Lutheran, United Church of Christ, and Episcopalian churches. The Council helped to establish the Night Ministry, the Suicide Prevention Hotline, Larkin Street Youth Center, Huckleberry House, Central City Poverty Program, and the first citizen-based police watc organization, Citizen's Alert.&#13;
&#13;
The original group of active CRH ministers are Rev. Ted Mcllvenna, Rev. Cecil Williams, Rev. Lewis Durham, Rev. Fred Bird (all Methodists), Rev. Robert Cromey (Episcopal), Rev. Charles Lewis (Lutheran), and Rev. Clay Colwell (United Church of Christ). Other key CRH ministers include Rev. Don Kuhn (national outreach), Rev. John Moore (whose two-part sermon on the relationship between Christianity and homosexuality was reprinted on the front page of The Chronicle), Rev. Ed Hansen (co-founder of the Central City Poverty Program and other agencies), and Rev. Bill Johnson (the first openly gay, ordained minister in the U.S.). Activists who helped establish the CRH include Phyllis Lyon, Del Martin, Hal Call, Don Lucas, Rick Stokes, and the infamous three who were arrested at the CRH 1964/65 New Year's Eve Ball at California Hall: Herb Donaldson, Evander Smith, and Nancy May. The police crackdown at the Ball marked a turning point in the press coverage of homosexuals and a change of public opinion. Within two years, San Francisco had its first gay community center, had Candidates' Nights for gay and lesbian voters attended by the likes of Willie Brown, Jr., and Philip and John Burton, saw the first national protest of gay organizations on Armed Forces Day in May 1966, and hosted an international CRH conference and a national convention of gay organizations in August 1966. The work of the CRH continues through other organizations to this day.</text>

                <text>Members of Glide's staff succeeded in identifying themselves with all sorts of minority groups and grass-roots urban populations - and from time to time succeeded in helping overlooked people - especially those in the Tenderloin - to participate in determining the directions the city will move. &#13;
&#13;
As a result, many people - including church-goers and non-church-goers identify with Glide, ask for help, offer to help, and become an integral part of the mysterious entity everyone finds easy to call simply, "Glide." &#13;
&#13;
Everywhere a person turns in San Francisco, there is someone present from Glide. The small army sometimes openly says it belongs to Glide. But often, without mentioning Glide, it quietly works to attain justice, freedom, and reconciliation in one of the most bureaucratically entangled cities in the Western World.</text>

                <text>Glide clergy like Rev. Cecil Williams and Rev. Ted McIlvenna combined with a few homosexual leaders to organize the Council on Religion and the Homosexual in 1964. This organization legitimized the effort to build gay community life under the protection of clergy. The following year (1965), the police raided a homosexual dance organized by the CRH that morally and legally was able to challenge the unjust police actions taken against the gay community. This 'Stonewall' event was the lynch-pin that started churches like Glide in San Francisco to become safe spaces for LGBTQs.</text>

ABOUT THE COVER:&#13;
With the exception of the cross, the fish is credited with being the oldest symbol in Christendom. The Greek word for fish is IXOUS (pronounced ikthus). The early Christians turned it into an acrostic that worked out as follows:&#13;
I - IHSUS (Pronounced Yasoos) Jesus&#13;
X - XPISTOS ( Kristos) Christ&#13;
0 - OEOS ( Thee-os) God('s)&#13;
U - UIOS ( Wee-os) Son&#13;
S - SOTR ( So-tare) Savior&#13;
This was used as a code to identify Christians during the time of the Roman persecutions. However, instead of saying the Greek word, they usually drew a simple fish. Today it reminds us always of the words of Christ, "Blessed are they who are persecuted for&#13;
righteousness' sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven."&#13;

&lt;p&gt;God brought me out.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A dear little old lady in church talked to my mom about college prospects.  At college, my mom looked at the Student Activities brochure and joked, "Here's one for you -- the Gay and Lesbian Association."  I thought to myself, "Bingo!"  One of the men I lived with in the dorms was the president of the G.A.L.A.  I would never have known of that college but for that little old lady -- in church.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;God brought me out.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

              <text>&lt;p&gt;Glyndon Morris sent us this stole just as he was entering the Master of Divinity program at Vanderbilt Divinity School in Nashville, TN; he graduated in 2000.  While at Vanderbilt, Glyndon participated in the Carpenter Program in Religion, Gender and Sexuality, completing a Community Project as a Sexual Educator with Planned Parenthood, and Project Paper: &lt;em&gt;Should a Gay Man Join the Presbyterian Church?&lt;/em&gt;, including topics on Gay Theology, Gay Ecclesiology, Gay Psychology and Gay Sociology. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Glyndon currently resides in Arizona and remains active in the work of Grand Canyon Presbytery and More Light Presbyterians, an organization working for the full inclusion of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people into the life and leadership of the Presbyterian Church (USA).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH&lt;br /&gt;RICHMOND, VIRGINIA&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Glynn Moreland was Richmond, Virginia's first PLGC Chapter President in the early 1990s.  He was a member of First Presbyterian Church and loved singing in the church choir.  He worked at the Richmond Chamber of Commerce and the last few years of his life at the Fan Free Clinic.  Glynn was an out gay man.  He never quit believing that his church was inclusive and would eventually stop its practice of discriminating against gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgendered.  And he worked for inclusivity with PLGC, in his own church community and at the Presbytery level.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Glynn had a lot of style.  The stole's appliques reflect some aspects of his life and personality.  He organized a benefit to raise money for HIV/AIDS that event was called Heartstings and that is the prominent theme of the stole.  A Virginia Tech alumnus, he was an avid Virginia Tech football fan.  He grew up on a farm, and was equally comfortable talking with farmers and retail people.  He collected teapots and decorated his house with large flowers, which he called a house broach.  He loved Christmas.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Glynn died in the mid 1990s from complications from AIDS.  His funeral was held at First Presbyterian Church.  His beloved choir sang.  Many friends were there.  He is truly missed.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

              <text>&lt;p&gt;Glynn, Dorothy and Lisa were faithful Presbyterians who, although living and attending church in a decidedly conservative area, believed in the best that the Presbyterian Church could be and held out hope that the church would come to love them as much as they loved the church.  All three were active in the Richmond Chapter of Presbyterians for Lesbian and Gay Concerns (later called More Light Presbyterians), and Dorothy served on the national board of PLGC.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Glynn died with his vision for a welcoming church unfulfilled.  Dorothy and Lisa were later driven out of their own congregation by a cadre of homophobic members who took offense to Lisa's having been invited to read the scripture in church one Sunday, and they left the denomination for good. &lt;/p&gt;

              <text>15th February 1963&#13;
&#13;
Derek Crosfield,&#13;
Frating Hall,&#13;
Colchester, Essex.&#13;
&#13;
Dear Derek,&#13;
&#13;
With this letter I am enclosing a copy of the pamphlet we have published, which is likely to cause quite a stir in certain quarters. I thought you would like to see it before it is officially published on Monday. The Sunday papers are going to town on it.&#13;
&#13;
One reason for sending it to you in advance is to report the fact that Ted Milligan has already gone up the wall about it. He has told me that he thinks we are quite irresponsible in putting this out, when we must have known it would be taken as an official Quaker document. As a matter of fact, the first notice that has appeared in the press, thanks to the advance publicity we have sent out, hasa emphasised the fact that it is an unofficial document. The paper in question is the DAILY EXPRESS. Of course, they should not have made any notice of it at all, because we told them quite clearly that publication date is Monday. However, I understand the DAILY EXPRESS are quite unscrupulous and will do anything for a scoop. Nevertheless the review they have done is not at all bad.&#13;
&#13;
I think it is quite likely that if members of the Berks &amp; Oxon Ministry and Extension Committee don't raise this matter Ted well may, so you had better know the history.  Several years ago I was invited to meet with Duncan Fairn's group as a private Friend, and one of the things I urged them to do was to publish something on the whole subject for the general enlightenment of Friends and the public. As a matter of fact, I think they would have done so in any case. Their feelings at that time was that it would be so popular, they would have no difficulty in finding an outside publisher. However, last October, after General Committee, Anna Bidder came to see me and said that the group had not found an outside publisher and would like the Home Service Committee to put it out for them.  She also told me that owing to Kenneth Barnes' good relations with the B.B.C. they had become interested  in the group's work and had offered to do a Meeting Point programme on television in February.  Anna asked me how soon I should need the document in order to publish it for this discussion; the date I gave her was the middle of November--in fact I got the text in the middle of January.&#13;
&#13;
After mt meeting with the group, to which I referred earlier, I raised this matter with the Literature Committee, and have agreed that subject to the approval of our readers, we should publish this if we were invited to do so by the group. At the December meeting of the Literature Committee we had reports from our readers, based on their reading of one of the final drafts. These were favourable, although they recognised that the subject was controversial, but they encouraged the Literature Committee to publish: (a) because this was the work of a Friends' group who wanted to have our help; (b) because it was a serious treatment of an important subject; and (c) because it has been the policy of the Home Service Committee for many years to publish Quaker material for groups who otherwise would be unable to find a publisher.&#13;
&#13;
As you will remember, the matter was raised with the General Committee to clear the issue of the use of the Home Service Committee's imprint. Since about 1944, the Home Service Committee's imprint has appeared  on all pamphlets published by the Literature Committee. You will see, however, that there is a preliminary note in the present pamphlet, making it clear that this is not an official statement, and the same point is emphasised in the introduction to the document itself.&#13;
&#13;
Having to to this point, I discussed with the Assistant Editor of THE FRIEND the best way of ensuring that the pamphlet when published would be treated sensibly by the press. Clifford Haigh's advice was that as the group had already arranged a television programme on it, it would get a lot of publicity, and the best thing to do was to come out into the open and give it to the press with suitable covering notes; these are enclosed.&#13;
&#13;
Ted's reaction is that, despite our notices, the very fact that it is published by the Home Service Committee will mean that people will assume that it is an official document and that we should have anticipated this and consulted Meeting for Sufferings on it. I don't know how many Friends will share this view; the Recording Clerk certainly will, although I consulted him about the disclaimer note to be printed in the FRIEND. He has, in fact, told Duncan Fairn that he would have preferred this document to have been printed privately.&#13;
&#13;
i must say, I find these views rather strange, as it seems to me that the Home Service Committee has a publishing committee ought to be willing to help Friend to publish their views. Of course, there is a risk that some people will take this as an official statement, but any who did could always be referred to the document itself, which makes it quite clear that it is not. As a matter of fact, there is every indication that the publicity we are giving and getting from this will do nothing but good for the Society. The Sunday Times are full of praises for the document and propose to do a write-up on how the Society is moving away from its puritanical outlook.&#13;
&#13;
In our discussion with the Part III Revision Committee we have agreed that we should go to Meeting for Sufferings when we make a new policy departure, but I cannot for the life of me see that this is a new policy departure, as we have been publishing pamphlets for the last twenty years and longer! It is true that the comments made move in a new and a more radical direction, but surely it is our function to help to stimulate new and courageous thinking?&#13;
&#13;
Sorry to unload all of this on you, but I thought you had better have the facts. There is another point over which Ted is very cross, and that is that we have advertised this pamphlet in THE LISTENER and, although he hasn't seen it yet, in the NEW SOCIETY. The wording of the advertisements in both papers is a follows: "Towards a Quaker View of Sex--an essay by a group of Friends to be discussed in MEETING POINT on B.B.C. Television 6:15 p.m. Sunday 17th February, published 18th February by the Friends Home Service Committee, Friends House, Euston Road, London, N.W. 1. Price three shillings and sixpence. By post 4d. extra."&#13;
&#13;
The other thing which raised Ted's ire was the billing in the RADIO TIMES. I cannot remember the exact phrase, but it is perhaps a bit loose, in that it says something about a Quaker report, without indicating that it is by a group of Friends. As a matter of fact, this wording was never referred to me and has obviously been fixed up between probably Kenneth Barnes and the B.B.C. The handout which the B.B.C. publicity man has sent round to the press, on which I was consulted, seems to be quite in order.&#13;
&#13;
I will now stop. Over the weekend I will make some notes about our meeting with Berks and Oxon and then send them to you after I have heard from you in reply to the first batch I sent you.&#13;
&#13;
I hope all this won't make you regret your decision to become Chairman of such a dangerous committee--in such a dangerously cautious Society!&#13;
&#13;
Yours ever,&#13;
George H. Gorman&#13;
