Friday's Luncheon

I wanted to let everyone know how last Friday's luncheon went. The luncheon was sponsored by Equality Ohio's Faith division. It was created to have open dialogue between ministers and politicans in the Senate district 19. Needless to say, no politicans showed up. There were a small group of ministers but it was still good. I was asked ahead of time to be one of 2 guest speakers. I was asked to speak about what I have been doing in Ohio to benefit the cause, how others can help, and how we move forward tomorrow. I was very well received and several ministers kept refering back to my speech.

We have all agreed that Equality in housing and employment is important. We are going to be pushing for bill passage in May 2010 in the Ohio Senate, after primaries. In the meantime, public education on basic humanity is needed. I stressed that we must make people realize we are all the same, human. I ask that all ministers please keep this in mind when addressing concerns of others.
As human beings we all want the same, love and acceptance from our family and friends in all we do.

It was a great event and I hope that others will get the chance to join me in events in the future. It seems like I attend plenty a year. :)
