Photograph shows a group of High Tech Gays, many of whom are holding umbrellas, marching in the rain in Sacramento, California in support of Assembly bill 1 (AB-1). Two men are carrying a banner that reads: "HTG High Tech Gays". A young girl with an umbrella is standing behind the banner.
Written on verso: High Tech Gays; Members of High Tech Gays participate in the March on Sacramento in support of AB-1, 1980. "As a group, HTC joined the march on Sacramento on January 23, 1980, which was in support of AB-1 -- the gay civil rights bill authored by Assemblyman Art Agnos (D-San Francisco)." See Ted Sahl, "From Closet to Community," (2002), p. 93. According to the Assembly final history, AB 1 "died on inactive file".
