Via White Crane Institute // QUEER NATION


Queer Nights Out!
1990 -

QUEER NATION, the direct-action group's inaugural action took place at Flutie's Bar, a straight hangout at the South Street Sea Port in New York City on April 13, 1990. The goal: to make clear to patrons that queers will not be restricted to Gay bars for socializing and for public displays of affection. More visibility actions like this one became known as "Queer Nights Out."

Gay Wisdom for Daily Living from White Crane Institute

"With the increasing commodification of gay news, views, and culture by powerful corporate interests, having a strong independent voice in our community is all the more important. White Crane is one of the last brave standouts in this bland new world... a triumph over the looming mediocrity of the mainstream Gay world." - Mark Thompson
