Description

June London, Ont. The Gay Activist League of London (GALL) was formed after some community members became dissatisfied with the operation of HALO. They saw HALO as drifting away from building a gay community and a gay political movement in London and were particularly upset with HALO's recent restriction of community dances to members only. The first issue of Now We've Got GALL was published in June 1977. Members of GALL were also active in monitoring and leafleting in Victoria Park, a major male gay cruising area in London. GALL soon fell victim to apathy, and disbanded by the end of 1977.
