Bronx Gay Center Protest Walk

By Charlotte Robinson, June 21, 2013
With the celebration of Gay Pride in NYC to commemorate the Stonewall riots next weekend & the entire LGBT community waiting to hear the US Supreme gay marriage decision The Bronx LGBTQ Center will take to the streets this evening to reach out to the community & fight back against homophobia, transphobia & discrimination. They will be accompanied by Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz, Jr. & NYC councilwoman Melissa Mark-Viverito. New York State Senator Jose M. Serrano is expected to join the walk, as well. The walk will begin at SCAN's Mullaly Recreation Center after a brief safety talk & proceed toward the Grand Concourse & Tremont at 6P at the Mullaly Recreation Center, 40 East 164th Street in the Bronx. Again we have to take to the streets into order to provide a safe environment for our LGBT citizens. Hopefully the country will take notice. The U.S. Supreme Court will rule within the next week on the fate of the so-called Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). Our LGBT community has worked so hard against DOMA's discrimination for nearly a decade & will not stop until full equality is achieved for their families. Let’s hope that the US Supreme Court will rule fairly & respectfully in this matter. Updates To Come…:)

  1. Hi, you guys are using the logo from the now-defunct Bronx Community Pride Center, to discuss the new Bronx LGBTQ Center, which is contributing to people confusing the two organizations.

    They are totally and completely separate, with no affiliation or linkage whatsoever.

    You can find the Bronx LGBTQ Center's logo on their web site at http://bronxlgbtqcenter.org/

    Please correct this.

    Thanks.
