It is our goal to record the positive contributions GLBT people make to their community and the localcommunity at large. While AIDS and Hate CRIMES are certainly not positive things, we seek to draw the

positive fromthe negative. We hold up Paul Delph and Matthew Shepard and their families as models of how

human beings should or could react to each other and how families should support loved ones whose lives

are not in the box right wing religious zealots want themin. Delph, a multi-talented Cincinnatian, died of AIDSin 1996. His mother shut down her business to care for him. Shepard died in 1998, victimof a hate Crime and

(Editors Note: This is the

first time there have been four

PRIDE events in Greater

Cincinnati in the same year.

We invited the chairs of each

event to tell their story

about their event. Northside,

Northern Kentucky and KingsIsland PRIDE chairs chose to

participate. Their stories

follow.)

By Patti Herrmann

NKY PRIDE

Our first NKY PRIDE

event was fantastic... We had

a great turn out despite the

cold weather.

I would like to thank the

entire community for all the

love and support over the last

year and a half of planning for

this event. I had a great

committee and wonderful

sponsors. We had more than

20 vendors and fantastic

entertainers and speakers.

I had vendors come up to

me at the end of event and say

they thought we were very

organized and that was great

news. For our first year Im

pleased with the results and

everyone told me what fun

they had at the Party in the Park.

The media has been fun to

work with and The City of

Covington has been very

supportive and great to work

with this last year. I feel that

we celebrated our PRIDE and

it felt like the entire commu-

nity worked together and that

was extremely important for

us all.

Next year is up in the air as

far as dates but we might be

combining efforts with

Cincinnatis PRIDE event.

We are having a rap up

meeting at the beginning of

November and finish up our

thank you cards and then a

much needed break for the

holidays....At the beginning of

the year we are off and

running and the planning will

begin again for next year.

From the bottom of myheart I Thank everyone for

making a dream come true in

Northern Kentucky.

Northside PRIDEfest

To all who attended the

2010 Northside PRIDEfest,

we hope you had a blast!

We know it didnt compare

to the festivals that we have

seen in Northside in the last

ten years, but It was the best

we could do at the last

minute.

If you came early, you may

have been able to see Enguard

Flag Shows in Hoffner Park,

and we know it would have

been so much better if we had

booths and activities in the

park, but it did not fit into our

last minute budget for the

event.

The fashion show that took

place from noon to three at

the Northside Tavern was a

really great time, the music

and models really brought

excitement to the afternoon,

and the Cin City Burlesque

Show that followed was just

as entertaining. Thanks to the

Bands and DJs that came out

to entertain us and the venues

that opened their doors to our

festival. We know that the

Tavern took up mos

excitement during th

noon, but that eveni

Kings Island PRIDE

Its the event that youve

look forward to for the last 14

years!

PRIDE Night at Kings

Island, the Gay & Lesbian

Community Centers annual

fundraiser was held once again

and with great success. We

had nearly 3,500 folks

attending and raised about

$30,000. Both are near

records for the event.

You cant beat it really!Nothing like getting together

with 3,500 people and taking

in the adventure we call Kings

Island. With short lines, you

can almost be guaranteed a

money for next years

Northside PRIDEfest!

wait of five minutes or less.

Which is especially great if

you love the ride!The biggest thing that

people stubble on is thinking

that this is a PRIDE Event.

In reality its not. Its a big

party of your friends new and

old and a fundraiser for the

Gay & Lesbian Community

Center. So you wont be

seeing a parade, wont be

seeing a lot of booths, not

long lines at the alcohol tent.

But what you will see is a lot

of people having fun!

We couldnt have done it

without you! Youre the ones

that really make the event

happen. The board would

like to thank its volunteerswho helped out, our entertain-

ers and the staff at Kings

Island. Everyone pulled

together to make this an

award winning year!

Mother SaysBy Michael Chanak

I will not write of queer

bugs and PRIDE Pigs this

month!

Praise PRIDE

But, in their

stead, praise

for the bles-

sing of the

PRIDE God-

dess - North-

side, down-

town Cincinnati and Northern

Kentucky PRIDE all behindus, all successful.

All three came this year. All,

in my opinion, a d irect result

of the Gay & Lesbian Com-

munity Centers decision to

bless PRIDE and let it seek

new life outside of the

Centers portfolio.

The headlines tell the story:

largest PRIDE ever in

downtown Cincinnati,

Northside PRIDE brought 170

folks into the Center alone in

one day and NKY PRIDE

festivel and welcoming.

We are all the better for it.

Did some people have the

holy trinity of doubts,

questions and issues? Oh hell,yes. Were there some rough

spots here and there? Of

course!

Moving PRIDE organizing

out of the GLBT Center grew

PRIDE, both geographically

(three locations) and new

energy of ownership: Save

PRIDE in Northside (Daniel

Wells and Dustin James

Miller), Gay Chamber/Equi-

nox (George Crawford and

Jerry Schmidt), and Northern

Kentucky PRIDE (Patti

Herrmann) and all respective

committees.

The change caused folks to

make a decision to do

something other than the sameold, same old

formulaic

PRIDE of

2000-2009. I

outta to know

that pattern,

Mother

advised Chris Goods PRIDE

committee in 2000. After all,in 2000 Cincinnati had no

PRIDE parade for five-

years prior.

Yet, for those who are

search for darker reading of

her-story in this piece I

offer you two nuggets. First,

the Center called it right when

we argued it was time to take

things to the next levela ten

minute rant by Mother March

18, 2009, motion by John

Maddux, second by Mother,

and agreed to by all remaining

board members Bill Abney,

Jessica Fogel, Teresa

Shepherd, Adam Reilly and

Rusty Lockett.

Second, our most visibleGLBT political leadership of

the mid 90s should have

insisted on a visible PRIDE

Parade continuing post Issue

3 loss in 1992.

When the usual suspects get

their awards and certificates

next round, please consider

these folks for Community

Leadership Awards, the

respective PRIDE committees

and the GLBT Center Board

of 2009 and 2010.

I know it wont happen

because it is too many people

to thank and teamwork is the

real winner here!

Yet these folks actually

worked through the issues,

possessed foresight, had a

knowledge of how to build

community, took some heavy

rounds of criticism and

sometimes scant praise yet

grew an event tied to the

GLBT communities vitality.

May the PRIDE Goddess

bless us again in 2011 withthe joy of PRIDE.

The Transgender Day of

Remembrance is held every

November to remember and

honor those who were

murdered because of anti-

Transgender hatred or

prejudice.

Cincinnati Vice Mayor

Roxanne Qualls will be the

guest speaker at this years

vigil that will take place onThursday, November 18th at

7 p.m. at the Hebrew Union

College at 3101 Clifton

Avenue in Clifton.

The event is co-sponsored

by Crossport and the local

Human Rights Campaign

Diversity Committee. The

college is accessible to

wheelchair/scooter users. A

reception will immediately

follow the event.

The Day of Remembrance is

held each November to honor

Rita Hester whose murder

started the Remembering

Our Dead web project and a

San Francisco candlelight vigil

in 1999. Rita Hesters

murder, like most anti-

Transgender murder cases has

yet to be solved.

The list of deaths available

at www.remembering-

ourdead.org only contains

those deaths known to the

Transgender community or

have been reported to the

media.

Qualls to speak

at Transgender

Service Nov. 18

The Transgender Day of

Remembrance is intended to

raise public awareness of hate

crimes against Transgender

people, an action that current

corporate media does not

perform. The Transgender

Day of Remembrance

publicly mourns and honors

the lives of Trans-gender

people who might otherwise

be forgotten.

Through the vigil we

express love and respect inthe face of national indiffer-

ence and hatred. The Day of

Remembrance gives Trans-

gender people and their allies

an opportunity to step

forward and stand in unity,

memorializing those who have

died by anti-Transgender

violence.

He said, Since our institute

last summer, a number of local

school districts have contacted

us to provide training in their

schools around bullying issues.Because of the heightened

media coverage around this

issue, schools want to be more

pro-active and provide trainingto their staff members. Areas

of greatest interest tend to be

in the area of cyber-bullying;

teachers also are looking for

guidance in identifying

bullyingsome are afraid of

over-reporting activities thatare teasing, yet havent met

the bullying threshold.

In October, the Academy

began providing anti-bullying

workshops for parents. The

Academy customizes pro-

fessional development based

on the needs of each districtwith whom they work.

Training sessions can be

scheduled by contacting Green

Humm. Really? And you

get experts to write this for

you? And more experts to

explain what it says? Really!A Legislator is one who

writes, understands (hon-

estly?) and passes legislation

(Laws). A Lawyer is one who

knows (some of?) the Law.

Do we need to elect another

Legislator? What do you

expect to get from another

Legislator? More law? After

your visit, you may want to

elect a Representative.

Perhaps you will get some

representation and even some

for yourself. My humble

opinion is that we have quite

enough Laws already, thankyou very, very, very much!

The Arkansas school board

member whose homophobic

rants on Facebook drew

Bigot resigns

school board

widespread con-

demnation announc-

ed he was resigning

on AC360.

Anderson Cooper

told viewers that

Clint McCance,

vice president ofMcCance

the Midland School District

board in Arkansas, contacted

him to set up an interview

after his anti-Gay Facebook

posts sparked a wave of

outrage.

The posts, which emergedon in response to the Wear

Purple Day, launched to show

solidarity with Gay youth in

the wake of a recent string of

suicides.

In one post, McCance

protested the idea behind the

initiative. They want me to

wear purple because five

queers committed suicide, he

wrote.The only way Im

wearing for them is if they all

commit suicide. I cant

believe the people of this

world have gotten this

stupid.

In another post, he wrote,

It pisses me off, though, that

we make special purple fagday for them. I like that fags

cant procreate. I also enjoy

that they often give each other

AIDS and die...I would disown

my kids if they were Gay.

They will not be welcome at

my home or in my vicinity. I

will absolutely run them off.During McCances appear-

ance on his show, Cooper

confronted him about the

extreme anti-Gay sentiments

he expressed.

You have written some

really terrible things, he told

McCance. Do you really

hate Gay people that much,

that you like to see them die?

McCance, who said he was

ashamed and embarrassed by

his actions, told Cooper I

would never support suicide

of any kids. I dont support

bullying of any kids.

What do you feel like youre

apologizing for, exactly?Cooper asked him.

It was over the top, Ander-

son, McCance replied. It

was. I just went too far with it.

That explanation, however,

did not seem to be enough for

Cooper, who pressed Mc-

Cance further.

But, I mean, do you have

any idea of the... pain and fear

you have caused to kids

maybe even in your own

district who are being bullied

or who are Gay or who

dont feel safe telling anyone

that theyre Gay? he asked

him.

McCance said that the

situation Cooper wasdescribing was a what-if.

Then, Cooper got McCance to

announce his resignation from

the school board.
