Materials include photographs; press releases; newsletters; periodicals; audio-visual material; photographs; and news items that report on topics relating to the Coalition specifically or on issues and events that affect the Coalition and its constituents. The bulk of the material in this series comes from a broad set of sources. Much of that material has not been created by the Coalition, its members, or the UCC. However, given the marginalized nature of the gay rights movement and the decentralized nature of the Coalition, all this material was maintained to provide a deeper understanding of what the Coalition was collecting in order to support their causes.
