{"value"=>"<p>ACT UP's \"Stop the Church\" (12/10/89) Pre-Action meeting. Also contains footage of demonstration from predominately outside (some inside St. Patrick's Cathedral with Cardinal O'Connor before civil disobedience actions) and arrests of demonstrators. [Ellen Spiro's camera footage.]</p> <p>[From the ACT UP Capsule History: ]</p> <div class=\"note\"> <p>December 10, 1989 - ACT UP and WHAM! (Women's Health Action and Mobilization) co-sponsored our first \"Stop the Church\" demonstration. 4,500 protesters gather outside St. Patrick's Cathedral to decry the Church's opposition to safer sex education, violent homophobia, and attempts to block access to safe and legal abortions. 111 people are arrested. The news media chose to focus on, and distort, a single Catholic demonstrator's personal protest involving a communion wafer.</p></div>"}
