Whenever Harry Hay was referred to as the Godfather of the Modern Civil Rights Movement, he would say he preferred the title Lascivious Uncle of the Gay Civil Rights Movement.  Either way, his contributions began in the 1950's and resulted in some of the prominent gay rights organizations that are still creating change today.

On an April 7th afternoon, in Silverlake, California the  Cove Street Steps were dedicated to Harry Hay and the Mattachine Society for their contribution to journey for equality.  I attended the event and where I was surrounded by Radical Faeries, Billies, distinguished political representatives and members of the Silverlake community.  Come with me on this journey and you will feel like you are there with us experiencing all the love and hope that is Harry Hay.  

Speakers include the following:

Mark Thompson, Malcolm Boyd, David Edward Byrd, Eric Garcetti and more!
