··2000

and

The end of a year, in this case a year, a century and a millennium,
inevitably brings back memories of the past as well as making most of us
think about where we are headed in the coming year. A New Year brings
renewed optimism for our future. A renewed energy, from this optimism,
enables everyone to act upon the opportunities we have as a community
to make our voice heard. Opportunities are plentiful in this New Year!
The GLBT community and our friends must take advantage of these opportunities and educate ourselves, friends, families and the general public
about the need for EQUALity.
Twenty years ago, a group of people banded together to begin the
fight for equality here in Oklahoma. Oklahomans for Human Rights began
as a statewide organization and later evolved into Tulsa Oklahomans for
Human Rights (TOHR). Twenty years of working for EQUALity through
advocacy and education, twenty years of providing recreational and social
activities for members and the community, twenty years of a history of
leadership and twenty years of unity have made TOHR what it is today a strong and growing organization devoted to achieving EQUALity.
Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights secures EQUAL rights for the
Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender communities through:
T
Educational Resources
T Quality programming and support services
T
Unifying political and social events
T
Advocacy in legislative and legal matters &
T
Leadership in implementing social change
Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights is committed to maintaining a
home for our community organizations; a safe and affirming environment
and a visible cultural presence for our community and city, in order for
individuals to become proud members of our diverse society.
Over the past years. TOHR has brou!:!ht ,sP.vP.r:;i! icc,.t!!!S.,f impcrtance of the need for EQUALity to the general population of Oklahoma
and beyond. As we enter the new millennium, a look back over the past
few years is necessary to remind us of the work that remains to be done.
A few highlights of TOHR advocacy work during 1996 & 1999 include:
T
Appalled, as the nation was, with the brutal murder of Matthew
Shepard, TOHR organized the "Matthew Shepard Memorial Service"
for Tulsa. Attended by approximately 300 Tulsans, the candlelight
memorial service paid tribute to Matthew's short life while showing
the need for "sexual orientation" to be added to hate crime legislation.
T
The Tulsa Gay Community Services Center, a program of TOHR,
"came out" with two (2) large banners hung on the exterior on our
current location. Never before had a gay EQUAL rights group
proudly proclaimed their presence in the city of Tulsa. Ultimately,
the signs came down as a result of a lawsuit (now settled), but
TOHR had let the city know of our presence (and watch out for more
signs).
'Y TOHR was a resource of information to the community when
HB1211, which added sexual orientation to Oklahoma's existing hate
crime legislation, was introduced in the Oklahoma legislature. While
the legislation was ultimately defeated, TOHR stands ready for the
next battle.
'Y Co-Sponsor of Oklahoma's "Equality Begins at Home", a grassroots
event presented by the NGLTF, TOHR made available to the community a chartered bus to OKC to enjoy the rally held on the steps of
the state capitol.

BEVONo··

T

PRIDE '99 - Prideful Past ... Powerful Future! TOHR is the presenting sponsor of Tulsa's annual celebration. The celebration in
1999 included Tulsa's first Pride Parade. TOHR is the first organization in the city of Tulsa to secure a parade permit, though it was a
battle, allowing the GLBT community their first chance to march
down the streets! Representative Barney Frank, D-MA, one of the
country's most respected congressmen, who happens to be gay,
was the Grand Marshall of this history making event. Rep. Frank
was also the honored speaker at the 19"' Annual Pride Picnic, which
was attended by over 3,CXlOpeople, encouraging our community to
become active in the political process and VOTE! Rep. Frank was
also the guest speaker at a black-tie dinner, co-sponsored by Cimarron Alliance. The weekend ended with an Interfaith Prayer Breakfast
highlighting the works of faith communities here in Tulsa.
Advocacy work is very important in the continual struggle to obtain
EQUAL rights, but sometimes a little pure fun is in order. TOHR has provided the GLBT community with many different social and recreational
activities over the years. You may remember the "Southwest lnvitationar
softball tournament as a fine example. While that particular event has
come and gone, TOHR continues to provide, to our members and the
community, an array of opportunities for you to enjoy yourself! A few of
the highlights over the past year include:
T
TOHR monthly membership meetings are held on the 7° Tuesday of
the month at 7:'JJ pm at the Tulsa Gay Community Services Center.
The meetings are highlighted with a special program. Upcoming
programs include Estate Planning and a Real Estate Seminar among
others.
T
"Center Cinema", a weekly movie series held Thursdays at 7:30 pm
a! !~e Tut;;.;;G.;y Cvmmu.. :ty ServiccS Ceilter. Fiiin tities cover the
rainbow, from gay-themed films to blockbusters!
T
"Lesbian Connection", a program aimed at involving the women of
our community. A Women's Movie Night is held each Friday at the
Center at 7:15 pm. In addition to the movie night, a book discussion
is periodically scheduled.
T
Bi-monthly community pot-luck dinners. Designed as an evening of
gathering, these dinners provide our community with a chance to get
meet others and learn more about the activities of TOHR.
T The 1st Annual TOHR Film Festival this past year was a great suc-cess. Two full evenings and one full day of short films, documentaries, and feature films were featured in this 3 day event held at the
Tulsa Gay Community Services Center.
T
The 1st Annual Coming Out Fair was held in conjunction with the
Film Festival. This fair was designed for ALL of the community as an
opportunity to learn what is in our community and what you can do
for the community.
T
1999 was the first year TOHR and PFLAG co-hosted the annual
Holiday Dinner. This past year the pot-luck dinner was held at the
Silver Star Saloon.
T
The 1st Annual TOHR Holiday Home Tour was held this past December, with 3 featured homes. The homes were decorated for the
holidays and located in historic neighborhoods.
T
The annual Holiday Reception and Silent Auction was held the evening of the Home Tour. Many fine items were up for bid, including
tickets to all three major Tulsa fine arts group performances

TULSA OKLAHOMANS

for HUMAN RIGHTS

... the point
The year, century, and millennium are now history. Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights enjoyed a great 1999 and looks forward to 2CXXl!
However, it's good to take a look back and say thanks to the Board of
Directors, volunteers, members, donors, friends and businesses that have
supported TOHR and continue to support our mission of EQUALity.
First: you - the member. Thank you for your continuing belief in
TOHR, the work being done and the accomplishments of the organization.
Membership has nearly tripled in the past two years! TOHR now has over
225 members and continues to grow! Membership, available at a variety
of levels, provides you with a more powerful voice - there is power in
numbers! Membership also has it's benefits - and look for new and exciting additional benefits to be made available very shortly.
Donors: individual, organizational and corporate, are a very important aspect to any non-profit. Thank you to all for providing the required
resources to operate the Tulsa Gay Community Services Center and enabling TOHR to continue serving the community - all in the name of
EQUALity. The Board of Directors will be introducing new ways of giving
in the coming months, providing you with a variety of opportunities to continue your much needed and much apprecia,ed support.
Thank you to all of the businesses and organizations that have
joined TOHR in the mission of EQUALity. Through a united front, the people of the GLBT communities can realize the dream of EQUALity. The
·community Council" (name pending) is but one way we can unite to get
the job done. We invite all community organizations to become a part of
the "Community Council".
Volunteers are the backbone of the work at the Center and TOHR.
Thank you to each and every volunteer who has helped out, in whatever
way, over the past year. Without volunteers, the work simply would not
get done. Thank you for putting up with infrequent scheduling calendars
(it's going to be fixed), hot days (the AC is fixed) and cold days (the heater
is fixed) not to mention other "surprises".
The Board of Directors are a group of tireless individuals who provide the organization with direction and guidance, not to mention many
hours of volunteer work. Thank you all, we wouldn't be where we are
today without each and every one of you.
Wrthout the ENTIRE community, the work being done by Tulsa Oklahomans for Human Rights; from the small social events to the advocacy
work to the large events such as the Pride Celebration, would not get
done. Thank you to all of the community, your support is very much appreciated.

JANUARY 2000 COMMUNITY NEWS, PAGE 5

... news at the center

... news around town

- NEW GROUPS FORMING! - < ...•

BOOKS, BOOKS, and more BOOKS!
The Tulsa Gay Community Services Center recently was the recipient of approximately 400 books donated by the San Diego Gay and Lesbian Community Center.
Novels, references, history and self-help titles are a few of the new
additions to the Nancy McDonald Rainbow Library. These and recent
donations by members and friends have nearly doubled the number of
titles currently housed in the Library. In addition to the books available for
checkout, several tiles are available for purchase.
The Nancy McDonald Rainbow Library hours are the same as the
Centers hours: Sunday - Friday; 6-9 pm and Saturdays; Noon-9 pm.
Please feel free to stop by anytime and browse for a book for a good winters night read.

;•: VOLUNTEERING - A WAY OF LIFE! ·
VOLUNTEER:
ONE WHO ENTERS INTO OR OFFERS THEMSELVES FOR A
SERVICE OF THEIR OWN FREE WILL.
TOHR and the Tulsa Gay Community Services Center are run completely by dedicated volunteers devoting their time to the need for
EQUALity. All work associated with TOHR and the Center is done by
VOLUNTEERS, as there is no part-time or full-time paid staff.
There are numerous volunteer opportunities available at your Community Center. Answering the Information line, running the Pride Store,
cleaning (yes, that has to happen), working with our librarian in the Nancy
McDonald Rainbow Library and organizing special events are just a few of
the responsibilities taken on by volunteers. TOHR also has opportunities
for you to volunteer your time and help your community at large. The
Millennium Pride Celebration, advocacy work and organizing and helping
to run special events also require volunteers.
Whether it be one evening a month or 1 night a week, as well as
everything in between, volunteers are the backbone of TOHR and the
work that is accomplished. In addition to the self-satisfaction of volunteering, you also get a 10% discount at the Pride Store when you volunteer.
Troy McGoveran, TOHR volunteer coordinator, has announced a
NEW VOLUNTEER ORIENTATION for February 00, 2000. The orientation will begin at 6:3:> pm and will include an overview of what you may
expect when volunteering, a short training session and refreshments.
All interested individuals are encouraged to attend the orientation as
well as stay for the February general membership meeting, scheduled for
0'2100/fXJ
beginning at 7:30 pm. Please call 918.743.4297 for more information.

OTLIGHT

There are several new groups forming for you to become involved with at
the Tulsa Gay Conmunity Services Center as well as in the general
Tulsa area.

- ·

·-· ·

"SINGLES"

"Singles", a program of TOHR for the gay single man, had the first organizational meeting last month and anticipates exciting events and programs
in the future. "Singles" meets every Thursday at 6:3:>pm at the Tulsa Gay
Community Services Center. Come on down and participate in the group
and stay for Center Cinema at 7:30 pm.

"Rainbow of Discussion: Reading Group will be meeting at the Barnes and Noble at 41st and Yale and the Tulsa Gay Community Services
Center. The group meets on the third Wednesday of every month at Barnes and Noble, beginning January 17, 2CXXJ
and the on the first Wednesday of every month at the Center.
The group will be discussing classic and contemporary titles. Selected titles for discussion will include those which have influenced the
present gay, lesbian and bisexual cultures.
This months selection, "A Place at the Table" by Bruce Bawer, can
be found in the Staff Recpmmendations section of the Barnes and Noble
store in the Southroads Shopping Center at 41st and Yale.

"Circle of Friends" is an offshoot of TOHR's popular "Lesbian Connection". The organizers invite all those interested to join them at the
Tulsa Gay Community Services Center for an exchange of ideas and experiences.
Primarily a no topic barred discussion group, the group also plans to
have some group outings in the near future.

,~,·•- TULSA AREA PRIMETIMERS-:~-.'.-:.
TULSA AREA PRIMETIMERS is a social and recreational organization for Gay and Bi-sexual men over 21 who live in Tulsa or surrounding
areas. Founded in August 1993, TAPT has become a popular group in
the gay and bi-sexual community.
The Primetimers are a group of friendly guys who organize and participate in events of special interest to mature men. TAPT's goal is to
establish friendship and support through social interaction. They have a
diverse program of activities, which are held in the homes of members or
in comfortable community facilities, such as the Tulsa Gay Community
Services Center, where everyone has the freedom to be themselves
among friends.
Each month the Primetimers schedule one or more dining out nights
at area restaurants for the pure enjoyment of dining with friends. Some of
them also meet for lunch a couple of times a month.
The Primetimers monthly meetings are held the second Sunday of
the month at 4:00 pm at the Tulsa Gay Community Services Center, 1307
East 38th Street (38th & Peoria). Meetings are followed by time for socializing or a potluck supper. Guests are welcome.
Membership is open to Gay and Bi-sexual men over the age of 21. If
you have questions, please contact Stan at 918-582-6557.
