50 years in 50 weeks: 1993 March on Washington
Reading now: 337
The April 29, 1993 cover of the Bay Area Reporter featured that year's March on Washington for lesbian, gay, and bi rights. It was the third national march members of the LGBTQ community staged in the nation's capital (the others took place in 1979 and 1987 and were billed as marches for lesbian and gay rights, according to a 2017 timeline from the Washington Blade).
The B.A.R.'s coverage noted that President Bill Clinton was up in New England that day, and instead of a live electronic link to speak to people on the National Mall — as had been assured by Torie Osborn of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force — Clinton had Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco) read a letter from him.
