Bayard Rustin’s Birthday: In The News

Gay City News has posted a beautifully comprehensive article about our event, re-dedicating ourselves to Bayard Rustin’s vision for peace and justice in our world through non-violent action. https://gaycitynews.com/nuclear-weapons-bayard-rustins-birthday/

It was our honor to celebrate Rustin’s live with his partner Walter Naegle, and be joined by former NY state senator Tom Duane, as well as activists from many other groups, including the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom, Chelsea United, New York Peace Action and War Resisters League. Also on hand were Pace University social justice students with their professor Dr. Emily Welty.
