Politics. Perspective. Participation.
LGBTQ JUSTICE-As a newly out lesbian, I couldn’t help but watch the recent Supreme Court hearings on employment rights for LGBTQ people, and a recent Democratic presidential candidate town hall on LTBTQ issues, and think: “I’m sorry, what?”
BCK FILE--In 1970, Christopher Street West organized the first Los Angeles parade advocating for gay rights.
OTHERWORDS--Our country has made significant strides in advancing LGBTQ+ rights over the last 15 years.
CIVIL RIGHTS--Just hours after President Donald Trump announced on Twitter that transgender people would no longer be permitted to serve in the armed forces, the Department of Justice on Wednesday launched what is being characterized as a separate attack on the LGBTQ community, this time by arguing in a legal brief that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 does not protect gay workers from discrimination.
