Description

The first image in this set was published in The Manawatu Evening Standard on Saturday, April 27 1985 with a caption but no accompanying story. The other images were not published.

“Feilding Gay Task Force members flank the Salvation Army Centennial march through the town last night. About 15 to 20 task force members walked silently beside the march, letting their banners speak for them in their protest against the Salvation Army’s opposition to the Homosexual Law Reform Bill. Spokesman for the group Peter Pawson said the protesters were asked to stop, but the protest remained peaceful and non-violent.”
