Texas’ LGBT community responds to help gay Iraqi refugees  »  LGBT Asylum News
Source: Dallas Voice By David Taffet Two gay Iraqi refugees who are living in Houston came to Dallas for the Creating Change conference earlier this month seeking assistance. After being kidnapped, raped, robbed and stabbed in Baghdad, Yousif Ali and Nawfal Muhamed escaped to Syria and were given refugee status by the United Nations. The United States granted them asylum.

Brian, Brown: Overheated MA org shows more proof of personal Scott bond  »  Good As You
Before January's special election, we noted that Brian Camenker, head of SPLC-designated "hate group" MassResistance, claimed then-candidate Scott Brown (R-MA) as someone he had "known personally for several years": *SOURCE: Faith 2 Action, 1/12/10 It was a point that made us understandably eyebrow-raised, considering the years of thoroughly inflammatory personal attacks that Camenker has waged upon the LGBT community. Brian is part of the fringe anti-equality band that actually seems to take great joy in their hurtful work. He's part of the Matt Barber/Linda Harvey/Peter LaBarbera/James Hartline contingent, the very same coalition that earns ...

Conversations from the Gayborhood  »  qPDX - The Queer Northwest
Photo by Ashley Bedford Kendall Clawson, executive director of the Q center, has been referred to as Gay-prah—aka the gay Oprah—by Portland gossip extraordinaire Byron Beck. After meeting her myself in her cozy corner office at the Q, I am compelled to second that notion….to an extent. Without a doubt, she radiates an Oprah-esque charisma, resolve and allure. But the conceitedness and ostentation? It just doesn’t exist in Clawson, whose primary concern is the LGBT community, not her own self-interest. The minute I met her, I suspected I would spend the next hour of my time doing ...
