LGBT Celebration of Martin Luther King Jr. National Memorial

VERY NICE GUYS, WE NEED TO CONTINUE TO BE MORE OPEN LIKE THAT.

AND I HOPE THIS EVENT WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN EACH YEAR, AND IT WILL BE BIGER LARGER SO THAT IT CAN BE IN THE MEDIA ETC. WE WILL NOT STOP UNTIL EQUALITY IS ACHIEVE.

THE WORDS OF MARTIN LUTHERKING DESCRIBE EXACTLY THE LGBT COMMUNITY.

A LOT OF EXAMPLES FROM THE CIVIL RIGHTS MOVEMENT SHOULD BE CONSIDER FOR THE LGBT MOVEMENT. THE CIVIL RIGHT MOVEMENT IS NO DIFFERENT THAN THE LGBT MOVEMENT WE HAVE NOW.

Bayard Rustin ALL THE WAY!!! He was not only instrumental in the march to Washington, he was the guide behind MLK! He taught MLK about non-violent protest, but because of his innate disposition to be attracted to persons of the same gender, he was FORCED to take a back seat. BUT his work and influence are of great significance and so toady he DESERVES to be recognized for his unselfish fight for EQUALITY!

Thank you sooooooo much for mentioning Bayard Rustin! People don't realize how instrumental he was in the assembly and execution of The March on Washington.
