Harvey Milk Day
In Remembrance of Harvey Milk
May 22, 1930 - November 27, 1978
Harvey Milk was a visionary civil and human rights leader who became
one of the first openly gay elected officials in the United States when
he won a seat on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in 1977. Milk’s
unprecedented loud and unapologetic proclamation of his authenticity as
an openly gay candidate for public office, and his subsequent election
gave never before experienced hope to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and
Transgendered (LGBT) people everywhere at a time when the community was
encountering widespread hostility and discrimination. His remarkable
career was tragically cut short when he was assassinated nearly a year
after taking office.
