In 1984 the Klu Klux Klan staged a march in Montrose, the heart of Houston's gay community.

Although terror might have been expected to grip the residents of Montrose, once again they stood strong. With the help of the police department the 15 minute march ended with no casualties.

Neither Anita Bryant nor the Klu Klux Klan could stop us!

Fueled by the power of Stonewall, Houston's GLBT community could no longer be silent! Even the local media captured the feeling. The cartoon below was printed in the Houston Post on Friday, January 18, 1985.
