Tonight in Denver, Rea Carey, executive director of the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force, delivered the annual State of the Movement speech. I was lucky enough to attend the Creating Change Leadership Conference last year and to hear Matt Foreman deliver his final State of the Movement address. Unfortunately, with the move to Cincinnati [...]
I’m listening to Michelle Bernard on Hardball with Chris Matthews talk about the possible “unintended consequences” of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. One of these possible unintended consequences, she suggests, is that employers may decide to hire fewer women to avoid possible lawsuits. ::rolls eyes:: Or, you know, they could just pay women equally [...]
PLEASE REPOST, RETWEET, ETC. GET THE WORD OUT!!! From Impact Cincinnati: Due to an unbelievable amount of ice at the statehouse location, the state will not permit a rally on the premises we had previously secured. But we won’t let that stop us from rallying for equality with pro-equality Ohioans from across the state! Saturday’s [...]

Today, they released “Equality from State to State” for 2008, which looks [...]
If I hear one more Republican douchebag ask “what is $50 million dollars for the National Endowment for the Arts going to do to create jobs?” today, I may throw a shoe through my television. Being an artist is a job. Being a dancer is a job. Being a musician is a job. Being an [...]
In a few corners of the gay blogophere today, the discussion is heating up on whether or not California should try to revoke Prop 8 with the 2010 general election ballot.
