AEROBICS CLASS I/i0 An aerobics class is being offered again--and it begins this month. If you have gobbled up too many calories during this holiday season, make a resolution in 1984 to enroll in the OHR aerobics class. Last October, approximately 20 fellows enrolled in t~e OHR aerobics class and they "worked hard for the moneJro" (Actually it only costs $20 bucks.) But now it’s your chance to join them as a new session is about to begin. The class will meet at Thoreau. Junior High School, 71st and Memorial, The sessions will last six weeks and be on Tuesday and Thursday eveninqs from 8:30 to 9:30 startinq on January lOth. �The class is open to both men and women. You can sign up at the January lOth meeting or call Brian at 744-0174. Hurry as space is limited’. WATERCOLOR CLASS In 1983, OHR offered a chance for you to develop a new hobby-watercolor painting. Several people enjoyed the class taught by OHR member Ken Johnston. Ken, who has written three books on the subject and teaches the course all over the country, will be offering the class to anyone who wants to learn. If you have been intrigued by watercoloring, now is the time to pursue this interest and acquire a new skill. Ken emphasizes that no previous watercolor or free-hand drawing experience is required! Find out more about this beginner’s course at the January lOth meeting. Space is limited so be there to sign up! NEWSPAPER REPORTERS At the December meeting, some discussion was held dealing with inviting some World/Tribunewritersto an OHR meeting so that they may be "sensitized"about gay issues. It comes as no surprise that stereotypes and negative perspectives continue to be presented in Tulsa newspapers. The Executive Board has decided not to have any reporters attend the OHR meeting until February. Guidelines that will be followed--if they do attend-- include no full names, places of employment, or other personal data; no photographs; and no information will be given concerning OHR financial data. If you have other suggestions, please let an officer know. CHRISTMAS COMMUNITY SERVICE PROJECT The OHR service project was a great success! Donations of food and toys totalling nearly $I000 were delivered to needy families. Turkeys, hams, canned food, and toys made Christmas brighter for many. Rev. Alice Jones of MCC, the OHR Info Line, the YWCA Displaced Homemakers Program, and Neighbor for Neighbor helped with need family referrals. These included many single-parent families from our own community. The committee prepared and mailed media information sheets to newspapers, radio, and television stations, and to gay-related publications describing the project. Thanks go to the committee members, to MCC, and to Zippers and the Bamboo, and to OHR members for their generous contributions.

A great deal has happened for American gays since that fateful June evening in 1969. The waves of gayawareness and pride have washed across the United States. Gay people in such diverse places as Los Angeles, Alb~querque, Montgomery, Little Rock and Cincinnati haveorganized to help themselves and each other. This mOnth, gay people in every major city will commemorate Stonewall with Gay Pride Week activities and celebrations. Tulsa has a lot to celebrate--and to be proud of--this June. We now have an active gay organization, gay publications, a gay helpline, meetings, sports, clinics, and many other functions that are a direct result of the spirit of Stonewall. Many of the activities now available in Tulsa are attributable to OHR and its dedicated members who faithfully carry on, often in the face of apathy and occasional criticism. The.general public is becoming increasingly aware that gays are their own friends, neighbors, and children. More and. more society is realizing that gay civil rights is an issue that must be faced.

The Vietnam War was ending, the Watergate Scandal broke, the American Indian Movement seized a trading post and a church at historic Wounded Knee in South Dakota and minorities throughout the United States were encouraged by the progress of American Blacks. Here in Tulsa, a small but determined group of gay people organized to secure our right to be equal to our heterosexual counterparts. But in 1973 the tide had not yet turned for gay people. The medical profession had still to declare us fit. Hoover’s FBI routinely kept files on all “known” homosexuals. It was Boys in the Band times and while the coasts were closeted the atmosphere in Tulsa was doubly onerous. For most gay people there was the palpable fear of being beaten, fired from our jobs and driven out of our neighborhoods. Sometimes petty enemies, jealous neighbors or toxic co-workers who learned of our circumstance would blackmail us. Even discussion of homosexuality was considered inappropriate. The Tulsa Police Department would regularly bust gay bars simply because they catered to gay people. The TPD would back a paddy wagon up to the front of a bar, take the patrons down to the station, book and release them and the next day the Tulsa World and the Tulsa Tribune would print their names and more often than not they would be fired from their jobs. If we were dancing to Motown downtown at the Taj Mahal Bar and the lights flickered the men on the dance floor would separate because that was a signal that the police had arrived. It was illegal for men to dance together. It was illegal for men to dress in women’s clothing. It was illegal for two people of the same sex that loved each other, that wanted to have consensual sexual relations, to do so. Meanwhile homosexuality was as common then as it is today. Roughly ten percent of every demographic in Tulsa was homosexual -- living in denial or living in secret. It was in this oppressive Soviet-like atmosphere that I became a founding member of Tulsa Gay Alliance. I was 19 years old. Formation of Tulsa Gay Alliance That summer, I had read about and written to a new gay group at Oklahoma University in Norman and a man there named Denis put me in touch with a religious man, as I recall a seminarian, here in Tulsa who was forming a gay liberation group. So there we were in the late summer of 1973: A group of gay men and my feminist friend Jan, spread around the living room of this seminarian’s apartment at London Square, inventing our first gay political group. To my surprise my eighth grade English teacher, Gary Durst, was there with his friend. The energy was incredible as we addressed issues like -- what to call ourselves. Were we homosexuals, gays or the more radical moniker -- queers? We would avoid a rigid hierarchy and take turns leading meetings, we could reserve a room at the Tulsa Library, we would post notice and let everyone know that gay people would be gathering openly. We would tell the world who we were. Tulsa Gay Alliance was taking shape as we brainstormed. We accepted ourselves and that was the seminal spark. Tulsa Central Library Meetings There weren’t a large number of us at those first public meetings. As I recall there were only a handful, maybe seven or eight folks. I recall a Germanic dark-haired lesbian named Tay, the seminarian, a former Tulsa policeman, an older man who managed a gay bar and his friend, me and my straight friend Susan with her baby Jasmine in tow. There were just two or three more young men involved. I suppose we were trying to present ourselves as a public service when we scheduled our first guest speaker: A man from the Tulsa Health Department who lectured us on Sexually Transmitted Disease. I recall a drag show fundraiser at a gay bar named The Eighth Day at the intersection of 11th Street and Lewis. Barbara Streisand, Diana Ross and Judy Garland showed up. And I remember going to Southroads Mall with my friend Jan to canvas political candidates appearing there and asking them about their stance on gay rights. Tulsa Junior College �Tulsa Junior College Meanwhile, I was planning to attend Oklahoma University and wanted to complete some credits here at the new downtown Tulsa Junior College. Registration day arrived and I remember being pulled out of line by a security guard at TJC who told me I would be allowed to attend only if I promised not to organize a gay group at Tulsa Junior College. Apparently news of the free speech movement had not yet reached Tulsa. And just as now, many folks in power in Tulsa were gay and their hypocrisy was staggering. Generation Rap I’m not sure how many meetings occurred or how large Tulsa Gay Alliance became or what finally happened. I transferred to Oklahoma University early in that group’s life. At OU I joined the gay group and participated in consciousness raising presentations for heterosexual students. Not long after I arrived in Norman, Tulsa Gay Alliance arranged a show on a Tulsa TV show named Generation Rap. I volunteered for the show and traveled back to Tulsa with another gay man named Richard. A lesbian from the OU group also joined us. The show went very well. The psychologist twins who hosted Generation Rap asked me when I became gay and I immediately responded that I had been gay from the beginning. I never experienced a so-called conversion and that seemed to confuse the twins who asked me to repeat myself. Now I would respond that nature made me. I am a part of nature’s grand plan. Tulsa buffs will want to note that following the show the lone cameraman, Mazeppa Pompazoidi, stepped out from behind the camera and told me, “Man, that was good.” My dear mother had her sympathetic friends the Van Dusen’s over to our house to watch Generation Rap with her. I know that my public coming out was not easy for her. But as always my mother held her head high and supported me. Finally Today, gay politics is not central to my life. Our progress has allowed me to take that stance. But as hokey and flawed as our little gay group was, it was an important step for Tulsa. It was a genuine highpoint in the history of Gay People in Tulsa. We were the group that was not afraid to say our name. Way back in 1973 we did not hesitate to say we are Gay and we are proud. I would very much appreciate hearing from anyone who has memory of Tulsa Gay Alliance.

She always cared about others and was a good friend. I think of her from time to time and and have fond memories of her. I just discovered her passing and am very sorry to hear about it. I will always remember her. Robert Brown - September 28, 2019 at 12:44 PM “ I just discovered that Tina had died. We were out of town when it happened and missed hearing the news. We both enjoyed working with her when Floral Haven did their salute to Women in Military Service. She was an amazing lady!
