How is Kitsap celebrating the 40h anniversary of the Stonewall riots? First, many of us will be heading to Seattle on Sunday, June 28th for the Seattle Pride Parade. After the parade we will be joining the community and gathering closer to home with a party at the Golden Grill in Port Orchard. Also on Sunday, July 12th there will be a special service to commemorate pride at Kitsap Universalist Unitarian Fellowship in Bremerton. Look for more local events leading up to and following Kitsap Pride on Saturday, July 18, 2009 at Bremerton's Evergreen Park from noon to 5. Write Comment (0 comments) |

 THE WHITE HOUSE
Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release June 1, 2009
LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, AND TRANSGENDER PRIDE MONTH, 2009
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
Forty years ago, patrons and supporters of the Stonewall Inn in New York City
resisted police harassment that had become all too common for members of the
lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community. Out of this
resistance, the LGBT rights movement in America was born. During LGBT Pride
Month, we commemorate the events of June 1969 and commit to achieving equal
justice under law for LGBT Americans. Write Comment (0 comments) |
