Content AN EMERGENCY CALL TO ACTION TO THE LESBIAN AND GAY COMMUNITY THE GOOD NEWS Our Sisters and Brothers in Orange County are going to hold a major Lesbian/Gay Pride event in Centennial Park (corner of Fairview and Edinger), Santa Ana, California on Saturday and Sunday, September 9th and 10th, 1989. The Community there has organized a not-for-profit group called Orange County Cultural Pride. A volunteer Board of Directors in place, meetings are being held, standing committees are working and they are worthy of our support. THE BAD NEWS They have been the subject of one of the most intensive, mindless, virulent, unthinking homophobic attacks that any group has suffered in the nation, during the twenty years of our prime activism. Rev. Lou Sheldon, head of the Traditional Values Coalition, has been central to these attacks. Californians would surely know Rev. Sheldon for his support in 1978 of the infamous Briggs Initiative, Proposition 6, and most recently his advocacy role in support of Propositions 96 and 102. Our neighbors hold a City of Santa Ana, Department of Parks and Recreation Department lawful permit to hold the event in Centennial Park. Rev. Sheldon and his cohorts have gone before the City Council to seek a revocation. Happily for us all, the Council took no action. But all of this effort has taken valuable time, talent, energy and money to mount a defense. Valuable organizing time was lost in mounting a defense against these attacks. A CALL TO ACTION !! Therefore, it is up to all of us to support this fine effort by: 1. Speaking in supportive ways about the effort. Getting amoment on our community's agenda to urge all of us to support and attend. 2. To bein Centennial Park on September 9th and 10th to buy aticket, visit the booths, to be cheerful, if not downright GAY! and to tell them by our action that we stand with them. _ To create car pools, charter busses, and make a day of fun at the whole thing. Go both days if you can arrange the time and travel. | _ Attend the Parade on Sunday, September 10, 1989, commencing at 12 Noon, be there by 11 AM to be in place. - Take a booth at the Festival. The cost for not-for-profit organizations is low. Contact Orange County Cultural Pride at 714/831/1732 for more information. _ They need money now. So go over to A DIFFERENT LIGHT BOOKSTORE, 4014 Santa Monica Blvd. (at Sunset) or Christopher Street West/Los Angeles, 7925 Santa Monica Blvd., #200 (at Fairfax) and buy a ticket ... Please! 7.
