CHURCH PLANS TO PICKET WORLD PRIDE AND POWER CONFERENCE IN LOS ANGELES


On February 21-24th in Los Angeles, California, the World Pride & Power Organization will hosts its inaugural, historical conference at the Olympic Collection Conference Center in West Los Angeles and will include speakers such as Malidoma Some, Rev. Yvette Flunder, Cleo Manago. This pivotal event promises to reshape and transform the SGLBT movement as a whole, forever.

But a press release received from the Westboro Baptist Church which describes the event as a "A sordid bunch of sick, twisted creeps, unclean spirits like frogs, spirits of devils claiming to work miracles, promising a cure for AIDS which God Almighty says, whereof thou canst not be healed. Dt.28:27" vows to protest and expose the event as a conference filled with "Fag-Enablers."

The Historic World Pride & Power SGLBT Pan African Forum will feature activists, journalists and anti-racism workers dialoguing about the primary issues impacting African-Americans and effective strategies to cultivating productive responses to oppression and discrimination, Thurs. February 21, 3-5pm hosted by AmASSI & FON Institute.
