Two days after the Celebration, I headed to New York and it was there, standing with NCLR Deputy Director Arcelia Hurtado in front of Lincoln Center that we heard the news of Obama’s support for marriage equality. Arcelia and I screamed and hugged. It is a tremendous thing to have the unconditional support of our President in affirming our full humanity and dignity. In the days that followed, more people and organizations—Colin Powell, Jay-Z and the NAACP—have also come out in support of marriage equality.

Michael Sam: Upending NFL Heteronormativity With a Piece of Cake Bryan Adamson* Through the ensuing furor over ESPN and the NFL Network's coverage of Michael Sam's draft we heard so many people-even well-meaning people-say that there was nothing wrong with Sam being gay, but that ESPN should not have aired the kiss and celebration between Sam and his partner Vito Cammisano. 1 We can be quite certain that the St. Louis Rams' draft of Sam (7th Round, No. 249 overall) would have been a non-story had Sam kissed a woman and smeared cake on her face. But because Sam didn't, those of us who welcomed the revolution found ourselves having conversations about heterosexual privilege. At the time of the Rams' announcement last May, there was a good deal of talk in the news about privilege-white privilege.

Fressola By The borough has no one-stop, year-round, multi-disciplinary performing arts venue (the role is shared by the St. George Theatre and the Center for the Arts at the College of Staten Island). But it has the next best thing: Proximity to the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM). Home of the Next Wave Festival of new theater/dance/music, not to mention other must-see series, BAM is just 14 miles from the Verrazano-Narrows crossing (or a half- dozen R stops from Whitehall Street). Try to get to Broadway, Carnegie Hall Lincoln Center or even the lower East Side so fast or so easily. Plus, it is affordable, thanks to inventive marketing, sponsorships, subscription deals and subsidies. Some seats at some shows may be had for $10 or $15. "Water Stains on the Wall" by Liu Chen-hsiang. (Courtesy Brooklyn Academy of Music) At 29, the Next Wave is no spring chicken, but it still gets hipster cred and remains obligatory for New Yorkers determined to see what's new. "New" is always a slippery term, of course.
