abstract

{"value"=>"Ronald I. Jacobowitz was a gay activist and community organizer in New York City. He cofounded Gay Men of the Bronx and Bronx Lesbians and Gay Men United for Political Action and organized the We Are Everywhere! conference. His papers contain files on the activities of Bronx Lesbian and Gay Men United for Political Action, chiefly regarding the organization of a 1993 City Council Candidates Forum; on the response of Gay Men of the Bronx to the article printed in The Bronx News accusing the organization of promoting male prostitution; financial records from the We Are Everywhere! conference, and photocopies of meeting minutes of the Bronx Gay and Lesbian Independent Democrats (1983). While most of the collection consists of print and near-print material, some of the files contain Jacobowitz's handwritten notes and lists"}
