So, I cannot look up and save more bi representation stuff, unfortunately.  But I have been able to look up the history of bi activism, that like trans, ace, and most things not gay cis, gets swept under the rug.  It's not a single person's fault, it just happens.  As a person who is a fiend for history as well as movies, I decided this would be interesting to explore.  

So, from GLAAD's discussion of bi rights, there were some interesting things and people that came up.  For example,in 1960, there was a bi rights activist named Donny the Punk (he has a real name, but let's be honest, Donny the Punk is a lot cooler.), who created the first gay student club that the university actually aloud.  It was called the  Student Homophile League, and it was at Colombia University.  Very progressive for a school that was named for a guy who started the Native American slave trade, but that is beside the point.  

Then in June of 1963, there was this tiny thing called the Stonewall Riots.  You know, a bunch of drag queens before legalization of being gay resisting arrest, basically thrusting gay liberation into the lime-light.  Tiny thing.   Well, this woman named  Brenda Howard, a bisexual activist, organized a march a month afterward to commemorate it.  Then, at the year afterward she organized another march, and these annual marches eventually became the Pride Parade.  So Pride was something started by a bisexual (I swear that word will mean nothing by the end of this chapter).  She also founded a couple of safe spaces in New York, and PFLAG named an award after her, so she ended up pretty well.  

During the sixties and seventies, bisexual activism increased.  In 1972, National Bi Liberation was an organization that existed.  They even had a newsletter.  Community centers were set up, including one in SF that opened it's doors in '75.  But then the first gay rights ordinance in America was passed (Co-authored by a bisexual named Alan Rockway), and all went to crap, because straight people got scared.  Or rather, an orange juice salesman from Florida named Anita Bryant decided that she was scared and decided to scare everyone else, say gays were sinners and pedophiles.  She led protests and an anti-LGBT campaign with a very "think of the children" vibe to it.  If I could be more thorough about how much she screwed up gay rights in this country, I would, but the includes talking about Harvey Milk, the first person to stop her bs, but who is gay through and through and does not belong in a section on Bisexual history.  Just... watch Milk.  It does a better job then I would.  

After Anita Bryant got her homophobia and life ruining out of the way, there was the eighties.  Though bi men basically ran the scene, women were carving out a place for themselves.  There were political organizations, and rallies out side of conventions.  

Then AIDS.  And with this giant pandemic, people looked for groups to blame.  Gay men in general.  The LGBT community for it's 'moral failure'.  But then Newsweek started to paint this picture of bisexual men as the main scapegoat, since they were more likely to have AIDS.  That's also where we get the unflattering stereotypes that we today of bisexuals.   

Then the 1990s happened, and people stared to care about now showing people as stereotypes a little bit more. Tiny bit.  But yeah.  And activism has increased since people in the LGBT community aren't... you know... dying. So yay!  Bi crash course.
