GRANT NATIONAL GAY AND LESBIAN TASK FORCE POLICY INSTITUTE WITH GERARD KOSKOVICH, M. SOMJEN FRAZER, SUNNY BJERK, AND LEAD COLLABORATOR, SERVICES & ADVOCACY FOR GLBT ELDERS (SAGE) OUTING AGE 2010 1 Acknowledgements he Task Force is grateful for the generous support of the Arcus Foundation, which funded the research, development and publication of TOuting Age 2010. AARP also provided critical support for this research. This book has been years in the making and has required the careful attention of many talented researchers and advocates. The Task Force greatly appreciates the vision and dedication of Amber Hollibaugh who, in her time as Senior Strategist on Aging at the Task Force, created a national network of advocates and pioneered many of the perspectives and positions herein. We want to thank Task Force interns and fellows whose research was critical to this volume: Ernest Gonzales, Carla Herbitter, Erica Grace Nelson, Tey Meadow, Patrick Paschall, Angie Gambone, Jesse Zatloff, Meredith Palmer and also former Senior Policy Analyst Nicholas Ray. Several experts in LGBT aging helped refine our drafts and hone our perspectives: Dr. Kimberly Acquaviva, Loree Cook-Daniels, and Dr. Brian DeVries. At the Task Force, our resident expert on Aging, Dr. Laurie Young, made essential contributions to the book. Thank you, Laurie, for your patience, guidance and above all, good humor. Staffers Amy Sagalkin and Darlene Nipper made extremely helpful editorial comments. The intrepid Karen Taylor at SAGE in New York kept us on task and gave critical support, comments and feedback throughout. SAGE has served as a lead collaborator on this project, and their contribution has been invaluable. Task Force Vaid fellow Jack Harrison performed the “heavy lifting” on fact and reference checking and the book’s appendices. He made it possible to get our final draft across the finish line. Finally, the shape of this book owes much to its predecessor, Outing Age, and the sharp thinking of its authors, Sean Cahill, Ken South and Dean Spade. Thanks for setting such a high bar in research and advocacy for LGBT elders. Your work has had an enormous impact on the field and the movement as a whole. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Table of Contents Foreword by Rea Carey

  • Homophobia As Terrorism*
    FOREWORD: HOMOPHOBIA AS TERRORISM* MARl J. MATSUDA** Somewhere today a child stayed home from school fearing violence. Some­ where today a mother sits in a hospital, waiting to see a child on hold for suicide watch. Somewhere today a child is self-medicating by sniffing paint thinner to avoid thinking about a scary secret. Welcome to another day for children in homophobic America. There is one thing about this day that is different: we are here talking about homophobic terrorism directed at children. The wonderful staff of The Georgetown Journal of Gender and the Law have worked hard to bring a new journal to our Law Center and to organize this Symposium. Through the act of convening, they are saying: we want to know what it is like for children and their families to live in the land of homophobia. We want to know what it is like for them to face hatred and violence in places that are set aside for learning and community. We want to imagine the possibility of a different world. The participants in this Symposium are at the forefront of this struggle. They are making visible a form of child abuse that we are told does not exist, and they are working to infuse respect and care for all citizens into the social and political practices of educational institutions. During the week of this Symposium, in a seemingly unrelated event, the Supreme Court decided a deportation case in which it denied the First Amend­ ment rights of resident aliens. In that case, Reno v. American-Arab Discrimina­ tion Committee, I the government used the justification of fighting terrorism as an excuse for setting aside the Bill of Rights.

  • July 25, 2014 President Barack Obama the White House 1600
    July 25, 2014 President Barack Obama The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. President: We write to encourage robust civil society participation in the upcoming U.S.- Africa Leaders Summit, and in keeping with the theme of the Summit, “Investing in the Next Generation,” we urge particular attention to the rights and opportunities of the next generation of Africans who are lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT). Unfortunately, across much of the African continent today, the contributions of LGBT communities are denied or denigrated; their relationships and organizations are criminalized; and hostile political rhetoric seeks to deny their rightful place in African society. In the face of this repression, civil society leaders are standing up and demanding full citizenship. These brave voices are demanding a better future for all citizens of Africa, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, and the Summit provides an unprecedented opportunity to showcase their investments in human dignity. Given how some African governments deny the rights of their LGBT citizens, and the unique role that civil society plays in defending those rights, we urge you to include civil society voices in the official meeting of African leaders during the Summit. We welcome the opportunity for civil society to convene at a forum two days before the leadership meeting, but that forum is not an adequate substitute for civil society participation in the high-level dialogue with heads of state. Recognizing the need for candid discussion at the leadership meeting, we nonetheless believe that civil society participation could be structured to stimulate dialogue without necessarily limiting honest diplomatic exchange.

    For Release Wednesday, December 16, 2009 More info: Peter Montgomery 202-744-0941 See list of expert contacts at end of release New Report Documents ‘Decade of Progress’ on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Equality in America Study points to dramatic gains between 2000 and 2009 SAN FRANCISCO – As the decade draws to a close, a new report shows the past 10 years have been a period of dramatic gains in equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people in America. Two-thirds of the 36 statistical indicators compiled in A Decade of Progress on LGBT Rights showed significant advances, including sharp increases in the number of LGBT Americans protected by nondiscrimination and family recognition legislation at the state level. Just over a quarter of the indicators were negative, and two showed mixed results. The report is a joint project of the LGBT Movement Advancement Project and the Evelyn & Walter Haas, Jr., Fund. The report is available at www.lgbtmap.org. “The remarkable achievements toward LGBT equality tend to be obscured by day-to-day struggles, and overall progress often goes unnoticed nationally” said Linda Bush, Executive Director of the LGBT Movement Advancement Project (MAP). “By looking broadly at the last decade, this report gives a much fuller perspective on where we are today -- and how far we’ve come in just ten years.” “From over 50 years of supporting causes that help advance equality, we understand that making meaningful change requires time. But these facts make it clear that equal rights for gay people are advancing at an exceptional rate,” said Ira Hirschfield, President of the Haas, Jr.
