Out Front (newspaper)

Out Front is a lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender newspaper and daily online publication in the Denver metropolitan area. Out Front was founded by Phil Price with its first issue hitting the stands on April 2, 1976. "Out Front" is now the second oldest independent LGBT (Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender) publication in the United States

History

After the Stonewall riots on June 28, 1969, the homosexual community began fighting back against the government-sponsored system that persecuted sexual minorities. Despite being founded seven years later by Phil Price, a student at the University of Colorado in Boulder in 1967, Out Front came on the heels of the Stonewall riots and became part of the gay rights movement. Price saw a need for a voice for the LGBT community in Colorado and started the publication in his parent's basement.

On June 5, 1981, AIDS was first reported in the gay community in Los Angeles. For Out Front, this meant a period of time where a single issue of the publications didn't go by without a memorial for an AIDS victim. This epidemic brought the LGBT community together, unifying their common grief and support of victims through the publication of breaking news on the search for diagnoses, treatment and a cure.
