ABSTRACT
This is the text of the address given by activist Jack Nichols in the spring of 1967 at a joint appearance with Barbara Gittings at Bucknell University in Pennsylvania, under the invitation of a student group. The event is mentioned on page 183 of Kay Tobin (now Lahusen) and Randy Wicker's Gay Crusaders (1972). The noting of marchers at Independence Hall on July 4 refers to the Annual Reminder, held every year between 1965 and 1969 by homophile organizations to remind the American people that homosexuals did not enjoy the full benefits of liberty and were still being treated as second-class citizens.
