For my presentation today,

I've decided to talk about
an amazing woman

who sadly lost her life

at the Reclaim
Oxford Street March

run by the Conservative Party
on Oxford Street

in 1989.

It was an anti-gay
and lesbian rally

designed to protest
the growing national support

for the LGBTQ community.

They reported that they would be
expecting a turnout

of 100,000 people.

However, only 1,500 people
turned up,

which was trumped by the 5,000
gay and lesbian allies

who showed up
to protest the march.

So while the day proved to be
somewhat a success,

it sadly ended in a tragedy.

♪ ♪

Tara Tilden was
a much-respected spokeswoman

for the community,
and by the time she died,

she had been appointed head
of the New South Wales Alliance

and was running regular
meet-up groups for teenagers.

for her radical attempts

to get her message across.

Sadly, Tara lost her life
at the end of the rally in 1989

intentionally run down
