Out at the Center's Rick Borutta covered Folsom Street East 2008 where, in his words, close to 10,000 revelers strapped it, stuffed it or snuffed it at the annual block party for the fetish crowd. Sexual freedom was the catch phrase, and it's expression cam in many styles. The Center was also on hand with a booth and volunteers handing condoms, lube and temporary tatoos.

In June of 1970, a year after the Stonewall Riots, a march took place on what was then called Christopher Street Gay Liberation Day. It went up one lane of traffic on Sixth Avenue to the Sheep Meadow in Central Park. In part two of the lesbian and gay senior experience, individuals who were there that day talk about the march. Thanks to one of them, Jerry Hoose, we have archival footage allowing us to relive the first Gay Liberation Day.
