Getequal Badgers Obama, Congress THE VOICE OF CHICAGO’S GAY, LESBIAN, BI AND TRANS COMMUNITY SINCE 1985 April 28, 2010 • vol 25 no 30 www.WindyCityMediaGroup.com GetEQUAL badgers Obama, Congress BY REX WOCKNER The LGBT community’s new activist pit bulls, TrueChild GetEQUAL, upped the pressure on President Ba- Bon rack Obama on April 19, 20 and 21 over his fail- Cookoff page 9 ure to keep major campaign promises to LGBT Americans. Although Obama has taken several smaller Leaders steps seen as favorable or helpful to LGBT Americans, he has yet to secure passage of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, or repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act. GetEQUAL’s latest broadside started April 19 at a fundraiser for U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer in Los Angeles. Activists David John Fleck, Dan Fotou, Laura Kanter, Zoe Nicholson and Michelle Wright paid their way into the event and then repeatedly shouted at Obama about repealing DADT as he tried to address the gathering. “We are going to do that. Hey! Hold on a Shelby second! Hold on a second! We are going to do Lynne page 19 that!” Obama responded. “All right. Guys. Guys. All right. I agree. I agree. I agree. ... What the young man was talking about was we need to— page 8 we need to repeal Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, which I agree with and which we have begun to do.

  • Nearly 100 Chicago Artists Receive $330,000 in Unrestricted Awards at 10Th Annual 3Arts Awards
    Contact: Caitlin Jagodzinski/Elizabeth Neukirch The Silverman Group, Inc. 312.932.9950 [email protected] Nearly 100 Chicago artists receive $330,000 in unrestricted awards at 10th annual 3Arts Awards Anniversary celebration honored 10 artists with $25,000 cash grants along with $1,000 awards given to 83 artists as part of a peer-to-peer giving program, Make A Wave CHICAGO, IL (November 6, 2017)–3Arts, the Chicago-based nonprofit grantmaking organization, is honored to announce the nearly 100 Chicago artists who received unrestricted grants at the 10th annual 3Arts Awards celebration on Monday, November 6 at The Mid-America Club. The celebration recognized the ten annual 3Arts Awards recipients along with the 83 recipients of Make a Wave—an unprecedented artist-to-artist giving initiative launched in recognition of the organization’s 10th anniversary. 3Arts has distributed more than $2.5 million in total funding to nearly 500 Chicago artists over the past ten years, and will award $330,000 tonight alone. “To say it is a privilege to award this many artists in a single year is a woeful understatement; it’s really a dream come true,” said Esther Grisham Grimm, Executive Director of 3Arts. “Ten years ago, we hoped that one day we would be able to do something like Make a Wave, and we kept that idea afloat until we could figure out how to make it happen. I can’t tell you how excited we are to have turned the reins over to all of the past 3Arts awardees to select the Make a Wave artists and to make that early dream of ours a reality in our anniversary year.

    QUEERING THE SCRIPT 93 minutes / CANADA Written and Directed by Gabrielle Zilkha ** OFFICIAL SELECTION – 2019 Inside Out LGBT Film Festival ** ** OFFICIAL SELECTION – 2019 Frameline43 ** Recipient of the Frameline Completion Fund ** OFFICIAL SELECTION – 2019 Outfest LGBT Film Festival ** Winner of the Special Programming Award for Freedom ** OFFICIAL SELECTION - AGLIFF 2019 ** ** OFFICIAL SELECTION – RAINDANCE FILM FESTIVAL 2019 ** Queering the Script is produced by Shaftesbury with the participation of Hollywood Suite, the Canada Media Fund, the Frameline Completion Fund, and with the assistance of The Canadian Film or Video Tax Credit and The Ontario Film and Television Tax Credit. Logline: Giving queer fandom a voice in the conversation about LGBTQ+ representation from “Xena” to “The L Word” to “Pose”, QUEERING THE SCRIPT examines the rising power of the fans and audience shaping representation on TV, the relationship between fandom and activism, and what lies ahead for visibility and inclusiveness. Synopsis: Queerness on television has moved from subtext, in series such as “Xena: Warrior Princess”, to all- out multi season relationships between women, as seen on “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”, “Lost Girl”, and “Carmilla”. But things still aren’t perfect. In 2016, a record number of queer women died on fictional shows, which broke the hearts of queer fans and launched a successful fight for better, more diverse LGTBQ2S+ representation. Stars such as Ilene Chaiken, Stephanie Beatriz, Lucy Lawless and Angelica Ross join with the voices of numerous kickass fangirls in this fast-paced history of queer women’s representation of contemporary television. QUEERING THE SCRIPT not only charts the evolution of queerness, but also demonstrates the extraordinary impact of activism on its many diverse fans, ensuring that they see themselves accurately portrayed on screen.
