Let's all share a fun night & please Save the date and join me, Saturday, October 19th for the Task Force Dinner at the Fountainbleu...a truly incredible night.” Mark Gilbert aka MarkyG is a long time fixture in South Florida & has been involved in so many elements & aspects of the diverse South Florida communities & cultures. Mark has been closely involved with the Miami Gay & Lesbian Film Festival (later renamed OUTShine) serving as Executive Director since 2014. Since 1973 the National LGBTQ Task Force advances full freedom, justice & equality for LGBTQ people. They are building a future where everyone can be free to be their entire selves in every aspect of their lives. Today, despite all the progress they’ve made to end discrimination, millions of LGBTQ people face barriers in every aspect of their lives: in housing, employment, healthcare, retirement & basic human rights. These barriers must go. That’s why the Task Force is training & mobilizing millions of activists across our nation to deliver a world where you can be you.
