Ace of Cakes!

July 8, 2010

2375793178_85e963ca0fIn one of our favorite magazines, Equally Wed, they recently interviewed Duff from Ace of Cakes!

They asked about the first same-sex wedding cake:

EW: Do you remember your first assignment for a same-sex couple?

DG: The first one we did was a rat on a manhole cover. We don’t care about sexual orientation—it’s not like ‘Oh, yay, we’re making a cake for gay people!’ or ‘Oh. We’re making a cake for gay people.’ We’re just making a cake for people who love each other.

Their cakes are beautiful! We enjoy watching the show and you should too! To see full interview, CLICK HERE

Former IL. Senate Candidate, Jacob Meister Launches The Civil Rights Agenda

June 25, 2010

Screen shot 2010-06-24 at 7.09.51 PMThe Civil Rights Agenda will be an educational, non-for-profit based in our hometown Chicago. Jacob Meister, who is a lawyer, wants to educate voters about human rights and non-discrimination. This education will lead to voters electing candidates who will initiate/uphold rights for ALL.

According to Gay Chicago Magazine, “There’s a real shortage of lawyers who will handle these cases,” Meister said. “And most employers don’t realize the breadth of the Illinois Human Rights Act.”

Meister said the Voter Project is aimed at identifying LGBT voters and allies, educating them about candidates and issues and encouraging them to vote.

“To me that’s a labor of love,” Meister said. “It doesn’t matter if they’re Democrats or Republicans. It’s about making people aware of where candidates stand on the issues and turning people out to vote.”
