Lesbo family love needed for call-in radio show Monday

Published November 18th, 2006 in Miscellaney.

ALL POINTS BULLETIN!

Dr. Nanette Gartrell, the principal investigator on the National Longitudinal Lesbian Family Study, about which I wrote in late October, is going to be interviewed about her study alongside a FAMILY RESEARCH COUNCIL guest on a call-in radio show on GreenStone Radio between 9:20 and 10:00am, PST, this Monday, November 20.

It’s streamed online, and the call-in number is toll-free. Details below. The obvious and pressing need is to counter what’s likely to be a well-orchestrated wall o’ hate coming in on the phone lines from the FRC folks.

Please spread the word.

Here’s the note Dr. Gartrell sent around; it was forwarded to the membership of the SF Bay Area’s LGBT family organization, Our Family Coalition:

Hi everyone,

I’ve agreed to speak about my lesbian family study on the All Female Radio network (started recently by Jane Fonda and Gloria Steinem) this Monday between 9:20 and 10AM Pacific Time. Here’s the link to listen online.

They are also having a Family Research Council right- winger as well. Many right-wingers will be calling in during the segment, and I’ve been encouraged to get folks on our side to call in as well. If you have time, please call in and express your progressive comments during the show.

1877-4ROSHOW - 1877-4767469

Thank you!!!

You know, that "selfish note" is really very helpful. It's one of the few, most powerful grace notes amidst the long (long) reverberating shocks from grief and loss -- the knowledge that others take note, and live (or in my case,

Herding pictures of them adds an extra special challenge. Fortunately, for most of the walk up Market St. we had three adults in our immediate group, and another half-dozen chums in shouting distance. And
    • Vikki commented on I heart Pride saying That picture is fabulous! I posted the few pics I took at Pride on my blog. I wish that I had taken more but it's hard when you are wrangling the kids through crowds...as you well know.
