Ads will be appearing shortly announcing the availability of both
the merchandise and the video. Since June 26, volunteers have staffed
merchandise tables at pride events in San Diego, Northhamptcn, and
Harrisburg. Sales also continue in New York.
The telemarketing is under way and is already showing good
response. "It is clear that people left New York City with a greater
understanding of what Stonewall 25 was about - our global movement and
vur world-wi:ie fight for human rights." explained Fry. "It is notable
that the media coverage of the anniversaries of the first moon walk
and Woodstack focus on the dream deferred and the road not taken,
where the reports on Stonewall 25 all showed just how far the Lesbian,
Gay, Bisexual and Transgender movement has come in a quarter century."
Correspondence, calls and/or meetings have been held with those
who are owed money. "Stonewall 25 has made the pledge to not run
away, but instead face this debt and make sure all are paid in full,"
promised Flora Piterak. "We are extremely gra teful to those who
worked so hard, put their time and resources into this event and who,
even now, are still being so patient as we put together this massive
fundraising effort,"
The goal of the repayment plan is to have all debts paid by the
end of November.
All this does not diminish the impact that was felt from the
weekend of Stonewall 25. Not only were 72 nations represented in the
march, but since then letters and 'ills have been coming in from allF'AGIE 02
