The Christopher Street Liberation Day Committee, formed in 1970 with the purpose of planning an event for the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, effectively invented the gay pride march. The Committee continued planning gay pride events through 1984. The Christopher Street Liberation Day Committee records primarily consist of organizational correspondence and minutes of meetings spanning the years 1977-1982, reflecting the Committee's relationship to city officials and other civic organizations.
