[5] On November 2, 1969, Broidy presented a resolution at the Eastern Regional Conference of Homophile Organizations on behalf of herself, Linda Rhodes, Craig Rodwell and Fred Sargeant, proposing hold an annual march on the last Saturday in June to be called Christopher Street Liberation Day, in honor of the 1969 Stonewall Riots which had taken place on Christopher Street.
Broidy has been critical of contemporary Pride parades as she feels they have taken on an overly corporate tone and are more of a party than a revolutionary march.
[8][9] In May 1970, Broidy and other radical feminist lesbians dyed their t-shirts purple and printed the words 'Lavender Menace' on them, in reference to a phrase used by Betty Friedan to describe the perceived threat that association with lesbians brought to the women's rights movement.
[3] She also taught in the women's studies department at the University of California on both the Los Angeles and Irvine campuses.
[4][11] At the time of the organization of the Christopher Street Liberation Day Parade, Broidy was dating co-organizer Linda Rhodes.
