Description

January Toronto The Gay Alliance toward Equality (GATE) (Toronto) endorsed the "Open Letter to David Goodstein and The Advocate" then being circulated by the Gay Activists' Alliance (GAA) New York. Goodstein, the publisher and majority owner of The Advocate, the major gay publication in North America, had attacked gay activists in his opinion column "Opening Space," published January 14, 1976, as being unrepresentative of the "silent majority" of the gay community, and dismissed them with terms such as "neurotics" and "egomaniacs."
