Pride Magazine 2007, the 10
th annual issue of the official publication of gay pride nationwide, has shipped to
gayborhoods, LGBT organizations, and local pride committees all over the country. Published in partnership with
InterPride, the mentoring, networking, and education coalition of gay pride committees worldwide, by this weekend you will find
Pride'07 stacked ass-high from Chelsea to Castro. Contact your local pride committee if you cannot find a copy of
Pride'07 in your usual finer
homotastic and
lesberiffic reading materials locations.
Pride'07 covers state-of-the-movement LGBT issues, from "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" to the plight of Eastern European gays to transgender workplace rights. You'll also find Pride's annual couples photo shoot, fashion coverage, and smart commentary from community leaders. Check out
Towleroad's exclusive insight to this year's cover feature about Antonio
Agnone and Brandon Juarez, a couple who met while in the Marine Corps and Air Force, respectively, and who now campaign together for the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell."
RELATED: I forgot to mention that on Memorial Day I appeared on
HRC head Joe
Solmonese's XM radio show,
The Agenda, to talk about the upcoming pride season. You can listen to a
stream of my segment on their site. Hopefully you won't think I sound like a complete tool. I'd say it's a 50/50 shot.
ALSO RELATED: This weekend Pride Month kicks into high gear, with major events in Washington,
Los Angeles, Boston,
Cinncinnati, Philadelphia and other cities. Tomorrow I will rerun for the third time my annual rant about gay pride, apathy, and
internalized homophobia.
