NGTF: National Gay Task Force Wants You to Join America's Largest Gay Civil Rights Organization.

New York: [National Gay Task Force], [early 1980s?]. 8½” x 3¾”. Single leaf, tri-fold brochure, unfolding to 11” x 8½”. Near fine.

The National Gay Task Force (“NGTF”) was formed in 1973 by several gay rights activists including Barbara Gittings and Bruce Voeller. The NGTF sought to enact change at the national level and had several early successes including: removal of homosexuality from the Index of Mental Disorders, introduction of a gay civil rights bill banning discrimination based on sexual preference, pushing to end employment discrimination by the United States Job Corps, and creating the Gay Media Task Force to improve the image of gays and lesbians depicted in the media. This brochure promoted their work with lesbians and feminists, with the text complemented by several compelling images. The organization exists today as the National LGBTQ+ Task Force.

This fundraising brochure has several images of marches on its front fold and opens to a visually pleasing collage of headlines of accomplishments.

None located on OCLC but possibly held as part of the NGTF Records at Cornell and we have handled one other. Near fine. Item #3206
