Impact Equality Saturday

Despite my prior comment on the issue of rallies and marches, I did participate in the Nationally organized Impact rally in Los Angeles this past Saturday.

Took my first trip on the LA Metro system to downtown


IMO the best speaker was Eric Lee from the SCLC

Crowd and Signs

IMO the best sign of the day

My sister and brother-in-law attended the rally in Orlando, FL (love you guys)




These last three are from the rally in Phoenix, AZ. I was proud to read online that there were around 2,000 people who attended. To any of my family or friends who may have responded to my invite and attended, thanks!

I am really amazed and encouraged to know that you made such a big life change and decision to start a journey to live your best and true life. I'm also very proud that you have been able to immerse yourself in the GLBT community with our brothers and sisters (that's how I see them). I'd like to ask if you can either give advice and/or tell how you have managed to get so involved with the GLBT community in such a short time, whether through volunteering or braving the gay nightlife alone in WeHo. What are your day-to-day thoughts and how do you manage the lows and high of being in a new environment? I hope these questions are not intrusive. You are on my blog watch. Take care and warm regards.
