See link in bio to help owner #helenbuford. I will be selling signed @hedwigonbway photos to help. More on that soon. Repost from @antonycherrienyc • On April 21, 1966, members of the Mattachine Society, an early gay rights group, organized what became known as the “Sip-In.” Their intent was to challenge New York State Liquor Authority (SLA) regulations that were promulgated so that bars could not serve drinks to known or suspected gay men or lesbians, since their presence was considered de facto disorderly. The SLA regulations were one of the primary governmental mechanisms of oppression against the gay community because they precluded the right to free assembly. This was particularly important because bars were one of the few places where gay people could meet each other. The Sip-In was part of a larger campaign by more radical members of the Mattachine Society to clarify laws and rules that inhibited the running of gay bars as legitimate, non-mob establishments and to stop the harassment of gay bar patrons. I had the pleasure of meeting Dick Leitsch one of the members of the historical sip in he did his part and now we should do ours. Keep this bar open. https://www.gofundme.com/f/220yp29d1c?sharetype=teams&member=4920724&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=customer&utm_campaign=p_na+share-sheet&rcid=ba8e359490484304af049fb5293a1621」7月4日 5時46分
