Gay Friendly Accommodations Attached is the LGBT community TAG approved list of accommodations. If you see any place you want to go please allow us to assist you in making your travel plans. We are a FULL SERVICE TRAVEL AGENCY specializing in LGBT Travel and we strive to make our client's travel as smooth and enjoyable as possible. We will SAVE you $$$ at the same time taking the stress related to planning. CALL US AT: 800-804-1341 Welcome to the TAG Approved® Accommodations Program Dear LGBT Travelers: Thank you for selecting TAG Approved® Accommodations whenever you travel for pleasure, for business, or for your meetings and events. Most travel guides list any accommodation that pays an advertising fee. But we wanted to take it a step further – we launched an all­out effort to qualify accommodations based not only on their desire for gay travel revenues, but on their employment policies, services, and support returned to the LGBT community. We also wanted to make the guide more far reaching that just the gay urban hubs. LGBT­friendly can be anywhere – urban, suburban or rural, red state or blue state. TAG Approved® tries to find hotels everywhere, because you never know where you’ll need a friendly smile. These are the qualifications for a hotel or resort to be TAG Approved: • Enforces non­discrimination sexual orientation policies both for their employees and guests. • Treats heterosexual and same sex partners equally in personnel policies. • Provides LGBT­inclusive diversity and sensitivity training for employees. • Employs staff who reflect the diversity of the community, including LGBT employees in all levels of employment. • Supports their local communities through charitable giving. • Empowers customers and employees to be “watchdogs” of its LGBT business practices. That last one is important. Every month we receive evaluations about our TAG Approved® hotels. These evaluations can come from guests or even anonymously from employees. We want to hear from you. And if you ever feel there is an area that the hotel should work on to promote LGBT equality, let us know. We will confidentially contact the property to express your concerns and work on correcting the situation. Simply email us at [email protected] or call 415/437­3800. Thank you again for being part of the TAG Approved family. Your support means a lot to us! Sincerely, Thomas Roth President, Community Marketing, Inc.

Neighborhoods like Fort Greene in Brooklyn, Snug Harbor on Staten Island, Long Island City in Queens and Arthur Avenue in the Bronx are rich in the cultural diversity for which the City is famous.

"En Unidad, Hay Poder" COMMUNITY ACTIVISM AND ETHNICITY IN SOUTH MARTINEZTOWN, 1930-1974 Vanessa Macias estled between downtown Albuquerque and Interstate 25 lies the small NChicano community of South Martineztown. The neighborhood's orderly streets go past a little grocery store, elementary school, park, and rows of town homes with adobe fac;ades. Each morning elderly residents greet each other on their walks, while parents hustle children through break­ fast and off to the school bus. The residents come together to spread the hushed glow of luminarias throughout the streets on Christmas Eve and to pick up runaway weeds and forgotten clumps oftrash every April. The neigh­ borhood association addresses ordinary concerns like speeding cars along the main thoroughfare. These day-to-day activities and shared experiences could describe many neighborhoods in Albuquerque and the greater South­ west. This particular routine in South Martineztown conceals its residents' triumphant struggle to preserve their homes and claim public space as proud Chicano/as in a changing urban setting.
