Summary: ‘Gays’ Call Meeting (Press, 12 September 1985)
On 12 September 1985, a meeting was organised in Christchurch by the Gay Rights Action Group to establish a coalition aimed at countering what they perceive as the increasing influence of fundamentalist Right-wing ideologies in New Zealand. Mr Graham Harvey, a representative of the Gay Rights Action Group, expressed the group's intention to unite various organisations that oppose these Right-wing forces. The coalition would primarily focus on an educational campaign to confront and challenge the bigotry and hysteria propagated by the fundamentalist lobby. The meeting is set to provide a platform for different groups to articulate their objectives and discuss collective strategies.
