Lindsay and the Reinvention of New York” makes clear, the Lindsay administration (1966–1973) ran the city during some of its most turbulent times. Tonight, Dick Leitsch, president of the New York Mattachine Society, and Rich Wandel of the Gay Activists Alliance discuss this period in the gay-rights movement.
