Randy Wicker

Randy Wicker is a New Jersey-born gay activist who was heavily involved in the homophile movement of the 1950s and 1960s. Initially denouncing the gay liberation movement that followed the Stonewall Riots of 1969 (a stance he now regrets), Wicker soon became very close with Marsha P. Johnson, with whom he lived with for several years. Today, Wicker lives in New York City and can be found on his personal blog and on Youtube.
