Proud to Shout: US OUT!

When the Gay Liberation Front was founded in 1969 in the aftermath of the Stonewall Riots, it was just as important to fight against the war in Vietnam, as it was to fight for the gay rights. In what The Advocate called "one of the largest concentrations of gay power ever assembled," thousands of queers took part in antiwar protests in Washington, D.C. and San Francisco in April 1971.

Dear Supporters,


March 19th marks the 6th anniversary of the war against Iraq, and the Obama administration is still committed to keeping most of the troops and private contractors in Iraq this year, and 50,000 troops and tens of thousands of private contractors there for years to come after the final "combat troop" pull-out in December 2010.

7 Anti-War Protesters Acquitted of Charges from Demonstration at National Guard Recruiting Office

On January 14, a jury found 7 anti-war protesters not guilty of trespassing at a Minneapolis National Guard recruiting office last March. They were arrested with 9 others after trying to access the office to protest both the lies told by recruiters and the illegality and immorality of the war wage in Iraq by the US army. After two and a half days, the 6-member jury supported the defense argument that international law and the Constitution protect their rights to dissent.
