She was a huge rights activist, taking part of many rights activism organizations. She founded the NY chapter of the Daughters of Bilitis. She also was an editor for their magazine, The Ladder, but was let go after she refused to be as conservative as The Ladder wanted to be. In Nov 1967 Barbara and her friend, Frank Kameny, were co-counsels in a Dept of Defense hearing, but neither were lawyers. Barbara and Frank dressed conservatively, but wore pins that said \"Gay is Good\" to make a statement. They fought to discredit an expert witness that was testifying that homosexual people can be converted into heterosexuals. After their cross examination the expert witness was removed from the list of expert witnesses. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLater on, in 1972 Barbara arranged a discussion with the American Psychiatry Association to talk about homosexuality in psychiatry and fight to get it removed as a mental illness diagnosis. The following year, in 1973 homosexuality was removed as a mental illness diagnosis from the Diagnosistic and Statistical Manual of Mental Illness. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCharity Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e$5.00 of each bottle will be donated to PROMO Missouri, which is a public policy and advocacy organization in MO that helps fight for rights and equality in the legal system today. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can learn more, or donate directly, at https:\/\/promomissouri.org\/\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 15 ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDirections: Apply 2-3 coats.
