Black Gay Magazine Premieres in Atlanta
(Atlanta, GA) - For the huge Labor Day Black Gay Pride weekend, Atlanta's Gay and Lesbian population will be treated to a new magazine that serves the African American and Latino Gay and Lesbian communities. "I could not believe that there was no publication in Atlanta that served the African American and Latino GLBT communities. The entire country is well aware of the large number of African American Gays and Lesbians in Atlanta. In many states, Atlanta is considered the 'Black Gay Mecca,'" said Eric Gilbert, founder and investor in RMI Publications Inc, a 10 year old publishing company established in Los Angeles, CA. RMI Publishing specializes in niche publications. Noble is Gilbert's latest venture. The publication premiered three years ago originally but Gilbert admits he and his staff were not familiar enough with the market at the time.
World Pride in Israel
According to Hagai El-Ad, executive director of Jerusalem Open House, World Pride was intended to counteract "incitement against gays and lesbians" by conservative branches of Jerusalem's three main religions. Despite the protests of religious right wingers and a war only 80 km away, El-Ad and the rest of the Jerusalem Open House organizers somehow managed to bring people together for a global pride celebration. When I first arrived in Jerusalem, Haneen Maikey, the Palestinian coordinator for Jerusalem Open House, recommended I visit Shushan, the local gay bar. Here, at least superficially, Jews and Palestinians seemed to get along. There was even a Hasidic Jew the night I went, hiding in a corner, still wearing his heavy black clothes and hat, his curls dangling from his temples.
Polish Gays to Sue Ruling Party
<< In one of the Polish ruling partys latest anti-gay provocations, Waldemar Bonkowski, a leading Parliament member from the northern city of Koscierzyna, hung a banner in his headquarters reading, in part, Today its gays and lesbians whats next, zoophilia
Our Polish pope is looking down from the sky and asking, Whither Goest Thou, Poland? BY DOUG IRELAND Polish gays are fighting back against the notoriously homophobic new government there, announcing plans to sue the ruling Law and Justice Party over two fresh examples of homophobic propaganda. In one incident, Pawel Zyzak, editor in chief of a party bulletin, Right Turn!, wrote that gays are animals and were the emissaries of Satan sent to destroy the Catholic Church. Poland is the most heavily Catholic country in Europe, and the Church was strengthened for more than a decade before the fall of communism by the papacy of John Paul II.
School kids appear in homosexual parade
Elementary-age students have marched in a homosexual pride event under the banner of a San Diego public school, amidst triple-X rated behavior by "gay" activists, according to a Christian blogger who reports daily to 7,000 people. James Hartline, who issues "Action Alerts" in response to situations in the city, said he was shocked by the "immoral" actions. "In one of the most appalling displays of gross disregard for the safety of young children, the San Diego City School system allowed a number of small children to march inside of the San Diego Gay Pride parade under the banner of one of its schools," he said. That, despite the fact, "that these children were brought into the midst of a number of businesses promoting pornography and nearly nude men and women in graphic sexualized demonstrations." Hartline told WorldNetDaily that he lived as a homosexual for many years, but left that lifestyle choice after becoming a Christian seven years ago.
