  • Gingrich-Jones, Candace (B
    Gingrich-Jones, Candace (b. 1966) by Linda Rapp Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2007 glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com The half-sister of former Speaker of the United States House of Representatives Newt Gingrich, whose record on glbtq rights is abysmal, Candace Gingrich-Jones is an out and proud lesbian activist who serves as a spokesperson and Senior Youth Outreach Manager for the Human Rights Campaign. Candace Gingrich-Jones is separated from her brother by twenty-three years in age and most of the breadth of the American political spectrum in philosophy. By the time of her birth, her brother was already gone from the parental home--married (to his former high school geometry teacher), a father, and living in Georgia. In 1942 Kathleen Daugherty and Newton C. McPherson, Jr.--both in their teens--were wed. The unhappy union lasted only a few months but produced a child, Newton Leroy. Two years after the divorce, Daugherty married Robert Gingrich, who adopted her son and gave him his family name. Newt Gingrich has chosen to pronounce it with a final "ch" sound (to avoid having to correct constituents), whereas the rest of the family uses a "k" sound that is closer to the authentic pronunciation of the German name. A career Army officer, Robert Gingrich took his growing family with him to postings in the United States and Europe. Daughters Susan and Roberta were born in 1948 and 1950, respectively. The baby of the family, Candace, came along much later, on June 2, 1966. Shortly after Candace's birth, her father was deployed to Vietnam.

    LGBTQ Titles Spring 2020 {IPG} Rainbow Warrior My Life in Color Gilbert Baker, Dustin Lance Black Summary In 1978, Harvey Milk asked Gilbert Baker to create a unifying symbol for the growing gay rights movement, and on June 25 of that year, Baker’s Rainbow Flag debuted at San Francisco’s Gay Freedom Day Parade. Baker had no idea his creation would become an international emblem of liberation and inclusiveness, forever cementing his pivotal role in helping to define the modern LGBTQ movement. Rainbow Warrior is Baker’s passionate personal chronicle, from a repressive childhood in 1950s Kansas, to a harrowing stint in the US Army, and finally his arrival in San Francisco, where he bloomed as both a visual artist and social justice activist. His fascinating story weaves through the early years of the struggle for LGBTQ rights, when he Chicago Review Press worked closely with Milk, Cleve Jones, and the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.

While a lot of progress has been made on the road to equality, there is still a lot of work to be done, especially in paving the way for our youngest citizens. Rejection from peers, adults and family, the effects of bullying and concerns for safety are a reality for many of our LGBTQ youth. This conference provides a much needed forum for youth-serving professionals to gain a better 3 understanding of the challenges our youth face, build a stronger awareness and cultural competency, learn best practices, gain valuable resources from leading experts and foster relationships with individuals in the same or similar career fields.

    OHIO’S 2004 SUPER-DOMA: POPULAR CONSTITUTIONALISM AND NORMALIZATION IN THE MARRIAGE EQUALITY DEBATE WILLIAM N. ESKERIDGE JR.* I. INTRODUCTION Born on a farm in Hamilton County Ohio in 1944, Phil Burress is a towering man (six feet two inches) with a gentle fleshy face and a sociable smile that belies a tough-as-nails will.1 Together with a calm demeanor in the face of conflict, these features made him a successful union negotiator on behalf of truck drivers in the Brotherhood of Railway & Airline Clerks.2 For twenty-five years, by his account, Phil was living what he calls a “double life,” because he was addicted to hard-core pornography.3 At age fourteen, he picked up a pornographic magazine from the side of the road and became hooked on those fantasies.4 He would drive into Cincinnati at every opportunity to buy, borrow, or steal smutty magazines and videos; it consumed his waking hours.5 The obsession destroyed two marriages (his first was entered at age eighteen) and left him psychologically estranged from his four Christian daughters and spiritually estranged from his Evangelical roots.6 Phil’s life changed on September 6, 1980.7 As a courtesy, Phil had come to hear his new son-in-law preach at the Church of God in Loveland Ohio.8 He didn’t expect to stay for the entire service, so he sat in a back pew.9 But he stayed.
