We are going to be hearing a lot about this guy in the next few days, and that’s awesome. Here’s the statement made by Boston Pride:

Collins.to.lead.boston.pride.march

“Boston Pride has formally invited Jason Collins to be a Marshal in the 2013 Boston Pride Parade, held June 8th. Boston Pride is proud that our annual celebration helped to inspire Jason Collins to make his groundbreaking decision to come out. We’re also very pleased that he has announced he’ll be marching in this year’s Parade – we’re looking forward to it!”

We don’t know yet if he’s accepted, but somehow I think we can bet on it!

Posted on March 4, 2013 by | 2 Comments

Its that first week of March, I thought I would take time and give a couple of reasons why I am excited about March:

2. Spring is coming! The birdies are gonna chirp and the flowers bloom and this confounded snow will melt!

St. Petersburg approves LGBT rally despite “Gay propaganda” ban

UPDATE: Authorization for the Pride march revoked, activists plan to proceed anyway.

As crazy as it sounds, authorities in St. Petersburg have approved a LGBT civil rights protest march and rally on July 7 at the Polyustrovo Park. Sounds too good to be true right? The catch is only 1,000 protesters can attend, and as RIA Novosti reports, Polyustrovo Park is far from the city center. 

So despite the law banning “propaganda of homosexuality and pedophilia among minors,” the LGBT civil rights march will go forward. While it’s a great moment to be recognized by the government, we’ll have to wait and see how this all plays out.

Stay tuned, I’ll be posting updates as soon as we know more.
