Dramatization of Early Discussion between Bill Stanley and Jeff Graubart on Washington march

“All those Democrats were swept in on the coattails of Mayor Manny Singer,” said Winston. “Don’t you think fighting for the passage of the gay rights ordinance would be a more productive way to keep your demons at bay?”

“What fighting? It’s going to pass. We have a substantial majority.”

“Well, then, Mr. Rosen, you would have no objections to delaying this Washington discussion until after the bill passes?”

“Same time next week, then,” I said.

“Today Urbana, tomorrow Springfield, and then the world,” said Winston, wryly.

But the sarcasm went right over my head. I stared out the window and repeated: “Tomorrow the world.”
