The gay liberation movement of the early 1970's brought the existence of gay people into public view. Prior to that, gay people were virtually invisible in society.

This visibility resulted in the removal of homosexuality as a mental disease, as well the move toward equal rights.

What were the political groups in 1960's?

I'm not sure which political groups you are asking about-- in the US, there were, of course, the two main political parties (the Democrats and the Republicans). But the 60s were an era of social movements: the women's movement (also called "women's liberation"); the civil rights movement, the gay rights movement, the anti-war movement, etc. There were also movements that tried to combine social change with politics, such as the Black Panther Party.
