In LA on Sunday, many walked for AIDS in the 26th annual AIDS walk Los Angeles, raising funds for AIDS research and hopefully, one day-a cure. Everyone is affected by AIDS. The disease sees NO race, creed, color, gender, sexuality, or age. I remember being a child, and being educated on AIDS. I was very fortunate to have family and teachers who (even in a Catholic school) kept up to date and educated us on AIDS and STD’s so that we were prepared for the future. We were taught that AIDS/HIV effects everyone, and everyone must take the proper precautions as we become sexually active. Walk on!
Tonight there will be a vigil for the LGBT youths who took their own lives after being bullied. May they rest in peace and teach us to respect one another. If you or someone you know is having a personal crisis right now, please dial 911 or speak with a counselor at The Trevor Project or dial 1-866-4-U-TREVOR

This is my sister’s favorite band. And I think I just fell in love with them too. Ozomatli, a Latin American band began writing “Gay Vatos in Love” back in the latter of 2008, during the beginnings of prop 8. This song is about standing by your man and coming out of the closet. LA Times did a great piece on them recently.
Today, we will participate in the march and rally for May Day!
This day is to rally for immigrant’s rights and this occurs annually on May 1st in Los Angeles. This year will be different for a couple reasons, the LAPD want it to be a safer year, and of course because of Arizona Governor Brewer’s signature of a heinous bill that will racially profile people who are ’suspect’ of being in this country illegally. Since we are a Latino family, it is important to march with our brothers and sisters and acknowledge that our country is made of all immigrants from all over the world. That’s what makes this country the United States of America.
President Barack Obama was speaking at a fundraiser for Senator Barbara Boxer of California. During his speech, several DADT protesters interrupted by shouting “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell”. This interruption lead to him to confront those protesters and reaffirm that DADT will be repealed and also acknowledged that Senator Boxer was NOT in favor of DADT and did NOT vote for it when it was passed in 1993. Watch the clip and tell us your thoughts…
