The North American Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) was founded in December 1978 and is an activist homosexual and pedophilia coalition group. Their primary aim is stated to be the overturn of statutory rape laws and reduction of “age of consent” laws that require a child be of a certain age (which varies by state) before they can agree to sexual intercourse.

The group was defended by the ACLU in a $200 million civil lawsuit. [1] NAMBLA was sued by the parents of a 10 year old murder victim; the parents claimed the killers were motivated by material accessible on the NAMBLA website. In the Spring of 2003, NAMBLA was in the forefront of the anti-War movement, publicly editorializing against the Iraq War before it started [2] while broad surveys of American public opinion showed 77% support for the war, only 10% strongly opposed it and 7% somewhat opposed the war. [3]

CPUSA member Harry Hay, who is widely accredited as one of the founders of the gay rights activist movement in the United States, in his lifetime was a frequent speaker at NAMBLA conferences. [4] Poet Allen Ginsberg was another famous members of NAMBLA.

The International Gay & Lesbian Archives, the world's largest research collection on gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered activism, has recognized several NAMBLA members for their contributions to the gay rights movement. [5]

While the organization has sent donation checks to several political figures, no politician has yet accepted the money.
