REPRESENT YOURSELF!
. ~"1
Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights, along with Soulforce in Oklahoma and PFLAG Tulsa marched in the Martin
Luther King Jr. Parade last month.
Nearly a 4 hour wait to cross the starting line (lined up
directly behind a Boy Scouts float-see page 5 for related
story) the TOHR float "Visualize Equality" was hard to miss
as it reached 12' in the air, took up the width of the street
and fluttered in the wind-thanks to the use of the largest
• ·;s. pride flag in the state.
Thanks to the all who marched in the MLK Parade and
helped with construction the day before the Parade.
And-make plans to take the day
ff and represent yourself at next
ear's MLK Parade.
ABOVE:
The TOHR float "Visualizing Equality"
flows down the street, making a
colorful statement of equality.
RIGHT:
Just crossing the starting line,
marchers carry the banner
and prepare to unfurl the flag.
ADVOCACY IN ACTION
TULSA OKLAHOMANS FOR HUMAN RIGHTS
HAS A PLACE AT THE TABLE
An increased presence brings increased representation throughout the city of
Tulsa. Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights (TOHR) takes a stand for the GLBT
allied community and is represented on the following:
• Say No to Hate Coalition (a coalition of several groups)
• Tulsa Race Relations Committee (Tulsa Police Department)
• Diversity Leadership Council (American Red Cross)
• Public Health & Safety Task Force (Mental Health Association in Tulsa)
• Legal Service Referrals Providers Forum (University of Tulsa)
• Speakers Bureau (University of Tulsa)

GLBT AGING GENERATIONS
•
At least one to three million Americans over 65 years of age are gay, lesbian, or bisexual
The number and proportion of GLBT elders will increase significantly over the next few decades, along with the overall elder population. By 2030, one in five Americans will be 65 or older.
Roughly four million will be GLB. About five percent of elder women, and f o u r . - - - - - - - - - - - - - -..
percent of elder men, have never married in their lifetime. It is likely that many
of them are gay or lesbian and that many GLBT people are not counted I this
statistic because they had been legally married to an opposite-sex partner at
some point in their life. National voter exit polls in 1998 report that 8.3 percent
I
of the GLB electorate is 65 years and older. The population estimates above

GENERATfONS
• , Racial and ethnic diversity among GLB people mirrors
that of the general population.
POPULATION. EVERYONE IS
INVITED TO PARTICIPATE
AND GET INVOLVED.
There is little researeh on people of color, seniors, sexual orientation and
gender identity. However, we can point out some available data. Voter exit
MEETING AT THE TULSA
polls show that GLBT people are distributed proportionately among racial
categories. In medium and large sized cities voter exit polls report that: 17% GLBT COMMUNITY CENTER of GLB voters are African American, while the overall African American elecA HOME FOR EVERYONE!
torate is 16%, five percent of the urban GLB vote is Latino (5.6% overall).
U.S. Census Bureau data from 1990 show that: 16 percent of all Americans
FEB. 14@ 7PM
over 65 years of age are ethnic minorities, while 84% are white, non-Hispanic.
FEB. 28@ 7PM
Of this group eight percent are African American, five percent Latino, two percent Asian and Pacific Islander and less than one percent Native American. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _..
By 2050, it is expected that 66% of seniors will be white, non-Hispanic; 16%
will be Latino, ten percent Black, seven percent Asian Pacific Islander and one percent Native American.
•
GLBT Elders may be more likely to face poverty and economic insecurity.
Gay men and lesbians face income discrimination. Gay men earn as much as 27% less than heterosexual men.
Lesbians and heterosexual women have little income difference, but women as a category persistently make significantly
less than their male counterparts. Income discrimination coupled with the lack of legal recognition of same-sex partners
has serious economic consequences for GLBT elderly. Social Security pays survivor benefits to widows and widowers,
but not to the surviving same-sex partner of someone who dies. This may cost GLBT elders $124 million a year in unaccessible benefits.
The above is a portion of: Outing Age: Public Policy Issues Affecting Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Elders, a
report by the Policy Institute of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force Foundations Aging Initiative.

"GET AWAY FR
Surprises are called surprises for a rea
son - they catch you off guard.
The recent Martin Luther King Jr. Parade
held surprises for two very different groups.
't
The TOHR contingent arrived at the pa
rade staging area only to realize we were line 1
up directly behind a Boy Scout of America en-:
try.
TOHR members viewed this as an op
portunlty for education. After all, we all
were participating in the Martin Luther King
parade together.
However, to the leaders of the Bo
Scout troop - it was an opportunity
teach hate. Upon realizing who was behi
them in the line-up, scout leaders worked fo
nearly 30 minutes to move their truck to the
empty adjacent lane (space was very limited with approximately 3 feet between entries), but they didn't stop there.
"GET AWAY FROM THAT NASTY TRUCK" the leaders told their troops after a few of the scouts wandered around
the huge flag admiring the flowing colors.
Now, we all know the Boy Scouts of America hate the GLBT community. Yes, hate is the appropriate word - you
hate what you fear and obviously these leaders fear our community. (to be fair, it could be a phobia of trucks or large
pieces of cloth, but somehow that seems doubtful).
But c'mon - teaching hate at the Martin Luther King Parade?
Sad, isn't it.

Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights, along with Soulforce in Oklahoma and PFLAG Tulsa marched in the Martin
Luther King Jr. Parade last month.
Nearly a 4 hour wait to cross the starting line (lined up
directly behind a Boy Scouts float-see page 5 for related
story) the TOHR float "Visualize Equality" was hard to miss

Thanks to the all who marched in the MLK Parade and

ADVOCACY IN ACTION

• Say No to Hate Coalition (a coalition of several groups)
• Tulsa Race Relations Committee (Tulsa Police Department)

• Public Health & Safety Task Force (Mental Health Association in Tulsa)
• Legal Service Referrals Providers Forum (University of Tulsa)
• Speakers Bureau (University of Tulsa)

GLBT AGING GENERATIONS
•
At least one to three million Americans over 65 years of age are gay, lesbian, or bisexual
The number and proportion of GLBT elders will increase significantly over the next few decades, along with the overall elder population. By 2030, one in five Americans will be 65 or older.
Roughly four million will be GLB. About five percent of elder women, and f o u r . - - - - - - - - - - - - - -..
percent of elder men, have never married in their lifetime. It is likely that many
of them are gay or lesbian and that many GLBT people are not counted I this
statistic because they had been legally married to an opposite-sex partner at
some point in their life. National voter exit polls in 1998 report that 8.3 percent
I
of the GLB electorate is 65 years and older. The population estimates above

that of the general population.
POPULATION. EVERYONE IS
INVITED TO PARTICIPATE
AND GET INVOLVED.
There is little researeh on people of color, seniors, sexual orientation and
gender identity. However, we can point out some available data. Voter exit
MEETING AT THE TULSA
polls show that GLBT people are distributed proportionately among racial
categories. In medium and large sized cities voter exit polls report that: 17% GLBT COMMUNITY CENTER of GLB voters are African American, while the overall African American elecA HOME FOR EVERYONE!
torate is 16%, five percent of the urban GLB vote is Latino (5.6% overall).
U.S. Census Bureau data from 1990 show that: 16 percent of all Americans
FEB. 14@ 7PM
over 65 years of age are ethnic minorities, while 84% are white, non-Hispanic.
FEB. 28@ 7PM
Of this group eight percent are African American, five percent Latino, two percent Asian and Pacific Islander and less than one percent Native American. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _..
By 2050, it is expected that 66% of seniors will be white, non-Hispanic; 16%
will be Latino, ten percent Black, seven percent Asian Pacific Islander and one percent Native American.
•
GLBT Elders may be more likely to face poverty and economic insecurity.
Gay men and lesbians face income discrimination. Gay men earn as much as 27% less than heterosexual men.
Lesbians and heterosexual women have little income difference, but women as a category persistently make significantly
less than their male counterparts. Income discrimination coupled with the lack of legal recognition of same-sex partners
has serious economic consequences for GLBT elderly. Social Security pays survivor benefits to widows and widowers,
but not to the surviving same-sex partner of someone who dies. This may cost GLBT elders $124 million a year in unaccessible benefits.
The above is a portion of: Outing Age: Public Policy Issues Affecting Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Elders, a
report by the Policy Institute of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force Foundations Aging Initiative.

"GET AWAY FR
Surprises are called surprises for a rea
son - they catch you off guard.
The recent Martin Luther King Jr. Parade
held surprises for two very different groups.
't
The TOHR contingent arrived at the pa
rade staging area only to realize we were line 1
up directly behind a Boy Scout of America en-:
try.
TOHR members viewed this as an op
portunlty for education. After all, we all
were participating in the Martin Luther King
parade together.
However, to the leaders of the Bo
Scout troop - it was an opportunity
teach hate. Upon realizing who was behi
them in the line-up, scout leaders worked fo
nearly 30 minutes to move their truck to the
empty adjacent lane (space was very limited with approximately 3 feet between entries), but they didn't stop there.
"GET AWAY FROM THAT NASTY TRUCK" the leaders told their troops after a few of the scouts wandered around
the huge flag admiring the flowing colors.
Now, we all know the Boy Scouts of America hate the GLBT community. Yes, hate is the appropriate word - you
hate what you fear and obviously these leaders fear our community. (to be fair, it could be a phobia of trucks or large
pieces of cloth, but somehow that seems doubtful).
But c'mon - teaching hate at the Martin Luther King Parade?
Sad, isn't it.

REPRESENT YOURSELF!
. ~"1
Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights, along with Soulforce in Oklahoma and PFLAG Tulsa marched in the Martin
Luther King Jr. Parade last month.
Nearly a 4 hour wait to cross the starting line (lined up
directly behind a Boy Scouts float-see page 5 for related
story) the TOHR float "Visualize Equality" was hard to miss
as it reached 12' in the air, took up the width of the street
and fluttered in the wind-thanks to the use of the largest
• ·;s. pride flag in the state.
Thanks to the all who marched in the MLK Parade and
helped with construction the day before the Parade.
And-make plans to take the day
ff and represent yourself at next
ear's MLK Parade.
ABOVE:
The TOHR float "Visualizing Equality"
flows down the street, making a
colorful statement of equality.
RIGHT:
Just crossing the starting line,
marchers carry the banner
and prepare to unfurl the flag.

GLBT AGING GENERATIONS
•
At least one to three million Americans over 65 years of age are gay, lesbian, or bisexual
The number and proportion of GLBT elders will increase significantly over the next few decades, along with the overall elder population. By 2030, one in five Americans will be 65 or older.
Roughly four million will be GLB. About five percent of elder women, and f o u r . - - - - - - - - - - - - - -..
percent of elder men, have never married in their lifetime. It is likely that many
of them are gay or lesbian and that many GLBT people are not counted I this
statistic because they had been legally married to an opposite-sex partner at
some point in their life. National voter exit polls in 1998 report that 8.3 percent
I
of the GLB electorate is 65 years and older. The population estimates above

There is little researeh on people of color, seniors, sexual orientation and
gender identity. However, we can point out some available data. Voter exit

polls show that GLBT people are distributed proportionately among racial
categories. In medium and large sized cities voter exit polls report that: 17% GLBT COMMUNITY CENTER of GLB voters are African American, while the overall African American elecA HOME FOR EVERYONE!
torate is 16%, five percent of the urban GLB vote is Latino (5.6% overall).
U.S. Census Bureau data from 1990 show that: 16 percent of all Americans

over 65 years of age are ethnic minorities, while 84% are white, non-Hispanic.
FEB. 28@ 7PM
Of this group eight percent are African American, five percent Latino, two percent Asian and Pacific Islander and less than one percent Native American. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _..
By 2050, it is expected that 66% of seniors will be white, non-Hispanic; 16%
will be Latino, ten percent Black, seven percent Asian Pacific Islander and one percent Native American.

GLBT Elders may be more likely to face poverty and economic insecurity.
Gay men and lesbians face income discrimination. Gay men earn as much as 27% less than heterosexual men.
Lesbians and heterosexual women have little income difference, but women as a category persistently make significantly
less than their male counterparts. Income discrimination coupled with the lack of legal recognition of same-sex partners
has serious economic consequences for GLBT elderly. Social Security pays survivor benefits to widows and widowers,
but not to the surviving same-sex partner of someone who dies. This may cost GLBT elders $124 million a year in unaccessible benefits.
The above is a portion of: Outing Age: Public Policy Issues Affecting Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Elders, a
report by the Policy Institute of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force Foundations Aging Initiative.

"GET AWAY FR
Surprises are called surprises for a rea
son - they catch you off guard.
The recent Martin Luther King Jr. Parade
held surprises for two very different groups.
't
The TOHR contingent arrived at the pa
rade staging area only to realize we were line 1
up directly behind a Boy Scout of America en-:
try.
TOHR members viewed this as an op
portunlty for education. After all, we all
were participating in the Martin Luther King
parade together.
However, to the leaders of the Bo
Scout troop - it was an opportunity
teach hate. Upon realizing who was behi
them in the line-up, scout leaders worked fo
nearly 30 minutes to move their truck to the
empty adjacent lane (space was very limited with approximately 3 feet between entries), but they didn't stop there.
"GET AWAY FROM THAT NASTY TRUCK" the leaders told their troops after a few of the scouts wandered around
the huge flag admiring the flowing colors.
Now, we all know the Boy Scouts of America hate the GLBT community. Yes, hate is the appropriate word - you
hate what you fear and obviously these leaders fear our community. (to be fair, it could be a phobia of trucks or large
pieces of cloth, but somehow that seems doubtful).
But c'mon - teaching hate at the Martin Luther King Parade?
Sad, isn't it.
