Obama Signs LGBT Hospital Access Memo President Calls Lesbian Denied Access to Partner Page 8 by Tracy Baim THE VOICE OF CHICAGO’S GAY, LESBIAN, BI AND TRANS COMMUNITY SINCE 1985 April 21, 2010 • vol 25 no 29 www.WindyCityMediaGroup.com Gender JUST rally Obama signs LGBT hospital access memo President calls lesbian denied access to partner page 8 BY TRacY Baim “I’m sorry.” Those two little words are what Janice Lang- behn has been waiting to hear since February 2007, when her partner of 18 years, Lisa Pond, just 39 years old, died separated from Langbehn and their children. But the apology did not come from Jack- son Memorial Hospital in Florida, where Pond lay dying from a brain aneurysm suffered Feb. 18, 2007, hours after the family boarded the R Family Cruise. Instead, President Barack Obama said those words to Langbehn in a phone call April 15, 2010, when he phoned her in Olym- pia, Wash., from Air Force One, ironically while it circled over Miami, where Jackson Memorial is Chicago located. Obama called Langbehn to explain a memo he Red Stars page 22 had signed that day to address discrimination LGBT families face from healthcare facilities. The Obama memo directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), Kathleen Sebelius, to move forward on steps to address hospital visitation and other related LGBT healthcare access issues.

  • Constantine's Sword HV PK
    James Carroll’s CONSTANTINE’S SWORD A film by Oren Jacoby 96 minutes, color & b/w, 2007 FIRST RUN FEATURES The Film Center Building 630 Ninth Ave. #1213 New York, NY 10036 (212) 243-0600 / Fax (212) 989-7649 www.firstrunfeatures.com www.constantinessword.com SYNOPSIS CONSTANTINE'S SWORD is the latest film by Oscar-nominated director Oren Jacoby (Sister Rose's Passion) and is based on the best-selling book by James Carroll, a National Book Award winner and columnist for the Boston Globe. Carroll is a practicing Catholic whose search for the truth leads him to confront persecution and violence in the name of God – today and in the Church’s past. He discovers a terrible legacy that reverberates across the centuries: from the Emperor Constantine’s vision of the cross as a sword and symbol of power, to the rise of genocidal anti-Semitism, to modern day wars sparked by religious extremism. At its heart, CONSTANTINE’S SWORD is a detective story, as Carroll journeys into his own past (his father was a U.S. Air Force General who helped prepare for nuclear war) and into the wider world, where he uncovers evidence of church-sanctioned violence against non-Christians. At the Air Force Academy, he and Jacoby expose how some evangelicals are proselytizing inside our country's armed forces and reveal the dangerous consequences of religious influence on American foreign policy.
