Summary:
A 13-page package of documents contains portions of a speaker's manual for activists speaking against California Proposition 6 of 1978, which would have barred homosexuals from working in public schools, or any employee from discussing homosexuality in positive terms. It includes a question and answer sheet; a news release from Assembly Speaker Leo T. McCarty, opposing the measure; a reprint of statements by the initiative's sponsor, state Sen. John V. Briggs, alongside a point-by-point refutation; a list of guidelines for speaking in public or to the media; and a list of groups opposed to the initiative.
