Christian Group Accuses ‘Filthy’ Whole Foods Of Supporting Pedophilia By Michael Childers
One Million Moms (OMM) — the boycott-happy anti-LGBTQ hate group with only 93,000 social media followers — has launched its latest campaign against Whole Foods for supporting Drag Queen Story Hour, the delightfully queer children’s library program where volunteer performers dress up and read books to kids.
adorned women who read LGBTQthemed books to young children under the guise of performing a public service. Some drag queens have admitted their goal is to “groom” the next generation. If you shop at Whole Foods Market, you are also supporting child exploitation…
In none-too-subtle language, OMM is basically implying that gay, trans people and drag performers want to have sex with children. “Grooming” is a noun defined as “the action by a pedophile of preparing a child with the intention of committing a sexual offense.” A retailer that once promoted organics and clean food is now It’s a disgusting insinuation that saturated in absolute filth, actually encourages violence exploiting America’s children to against queer people and be “groomed” by drag queens. children.

Drag Queen Story Hour held in Conservatives have also Atlanta, GA… mentioned the event in political attack ads. The disturbing events involve men dressed up as garishly The Amazon-owned And this time, they’re encouraging violence against everyone involved by basically saying that the program facilitates child rape. In its usual overwrought and alarmist style, OMM writes:

supermarket chain known for its natural and organic products isn’t likely to curb its sponsorship of Drag Queen Story Hour based on OMM’s gross fear-mongering. Like most of OMM’s outrages, they mostly want people to “sign their petition” and submit their email addresses so OMM can hit them up for money later. One Million Moms has a habit of picking on high-profile targets. Their past moral outrage has been directed at Parents magazine for featuring a same-sex couple, an anti-smoking ad that mentioned erectile dysfunction, Highlights magazine for acknowledging the existence of gay people, Scholastic books for featuring LGBTQ-inclusive children’s books, the Roseanne reboot for featuring a non-binary child, a Disney cartoon series for its brief scene of two men kissing, a Zales jewelry commercial for featuring a lesbian couple and the fairy tale drama series Once Upon a Time for showing a lesbian kiss. The group is an off-shoot of the anti-LGBTQ hate group American Family Association.

And some people want to restrict the amount of the medication that goes into their body, because of concerns about side effects (although the side effects are minimal). For others, the dosing regimen for ED-PrEP seems too complex and they are concerned that they will forget one or more doses. Given the importance of taking the after-sex doses, it’s important to develop ways of remembering to take all of the pills. Some people use apps or phone alarms to remind them when to take their after-sex medication. ED-PrEP is a good option for people who can pre-plan their sex – they’ll need at least to know at least two hours in advance, so they can double dose.

But we rarely talk about like it. the insidious racism in gay The “black” make-up culture that can render anyone movement I love least right who doesn’t fit the white ideal now is one currently playing out unwanted and invisible. Yes, from sea to shining sea (in there’s white privilege in the Atlanta, Los Angeles, and LGBTQ community, too.

It’s a world where “Pride in London claims this activists preach diversity and year will be its ‘most diverse’ parade yet, though historically, 10 www.cityxtramagazine.com
Prides have excluded diverse voices from within the LGBT+ community — the very people the movement was created to uplift. This is one reason that UK Black Pride throws its own celebration the day after, specifically for people of colour.” So in the end, if you’re black and gay like me and living in the right city, you might get your own special parade, but what does it do about the larger problem? Are Black Gay Prides bridging the chasm or widening it? Do they mean we should abandon traditional Gay Pride rather than try to fix it? God knows a few significant repairs are needed. I’ve always side-eyed Gay Pride because it feels like someone else’s party. I view it with the same degree of suspicion and near-dread that I do the Fourth of July, a holiday that celebrates a manifesto of freedom from a time when my ancestors were slaves. Independence Day is more about white people than it is about me. The hypocrisy of the gay community may not be as violent as America’s racist past, but it can be nonetheless haunting. For most of my life, I’ve felt like something of an interloper among what are supposed to be my own people. Gay life is dominated by white men and white voices, and even in the so-called safe spaces (bars, clubs, dating and hook-up apps), for too many, my greatest value is in the presumed size of my penis.
I never feel blacker than I do when I’m surrounded by gay men, in both virtual and actual reality. That’s not because I’m automatically more conscious of my race. It’s because others keep reminding me of it — whether it’s through an offhand “BBC” comment on Grindr, a question or compliment that revolves around black men and assumes conformity over individuality, or the N word hurled by a rejected suitor. Perhaps the sexual element brings out our basest impulses. I’m on the receiving end of some flagrant display of gay racism and racial objectification on most days that end in Y, usually online but sometimes in real life, too. Straight people can be horribly racist, but I can’t remember the last time one was overtly racist to me, and unlike gay men, they rarely
bring up my race to my face. Black Gay Pride is a jolting newsflash: It gets better for some, but not for all. It underscores the division in our community, in all minority communities. We spend so much time criticizing straight white men for taking their privilege for granted while using it against us. Then we turn right around and create categories within our own community that put those who don’t fit the idealized standards (white, masculine, young, whatever) into boxes labeled “Other.” The entire gay community needs to talk more about diversity and inclusion within its own ranks and not just outside of them. We all must pay closer attention to the specific hurdles that many gay people of color face, including poverty, racially motivated violence and police brutality, and racially and
religiously coded homophobia. I don’t groan over upper-case Black Gay Pride because I have anything against lower-case black gay pride. It hurts because having it means we still need it, and in 2019, Gay Pride, despite the rainbow flag that represents it, should be color blind. I’ll support Black Gay Pride through clenched teeth as long as it’s necessary. But I’m waiting for the day we’ll no longer need it, when gay pride and black gay pride finally merge and become the same thing.

Anti-Gay DA Claims His Religious Rights Are Being Violated By Drew Williams
A Tennessee county prosecutor who says the law does not apply to same-sex couples and Muslims is now claiming his First Amendment rights of religion and political viewpoint are being violated. Coffee County District Attorney Craig Northcott attacked a defendant in a case he is prosecuting that hinges on First Amendment freedoms to protest and petition the government to redress grievances, saying his attempts to remove the D.A. from his case are “constitutionally repugnant.” Northcott says his critics “are trying to impose on me a religious and political test for serving in my office, for conducting my job,” Nashville’s News Channel 5 reports.

AGT Judge Hough Says ‘I’m Not Straight’ By Jerry Hopkins
The professional dancer and reality TV judge spoke about coming out to her nowhusband, professional hockey player Brooks Laich, in an interview with Women’s Health. She explained: “I was connecting to the woman inside that doesn’t need anything, versus the little girl that looked to him to protect me. “I was like, ‘Is he going to love this version of me?’ But the more I dropped into my most authentic self, the more attracted he was to me.” “I [told him], ‘You know I’m not straight, right?’ And he was like, ‘I’m sorry what?’ I was like, ‘I’m not.

Gay Star News Is Closing By Tris Reid-Smith
We are devastated to have to confirm the reports that Gay Star News has to close, effective immediately. The site is no longer being updated. We don’t know how long it will remain online for but we will try to preserve it for as long as possible. Some of you will already have heard this news. It started to break via Twitter. Of course, we would have wished to tell the story first ourselves. However, our priority was to do what we can for our amazing team and the others directly affected by what is happening. Why Is GSN Closing? Firstly, we feel you deserve to know why we have to close. Since we started almost eight years ago, Gay Star News has been able to serve our community and grow. It was clear from the outset that you, our readers and supporters around the world, wanted to hear about and engage with the stories we were telling. However, it has always been a tough business. This year, it got unexpectedly much tougher. 22 www.cityxtramagazine.com
We entered 2019 with every reason to be confident we were going to have a strong year. But as the year progressed, decisions have been delayed and projects people had committed to do with us have fallen flat. There are a number of reasons, of course. But the biggest change was the level of confidence brands and businesses in the UK have, due to the uncertainty over Brexit. It won’t surprise anyone to hear that many media organisations are struggling with the same problem. There has also been another trend which has become more apparent this year. Brands which are wishing to ‘do’ LGBTI work are increasingly doing so in a tokenistic way.
Of course, most brands and businesses don’t even bother to rainbow wash. They ignore LGBTI customers and colleagues entirely. Anyone who has ever tried to encourage organisations to engage with our community will know they get more rejections than expressions of interest. Very often, one or two individuals in a company are keen but others block activity because it is ‘not a priority’ or even because they don’t want to be a ‘gay’ brand. (The nuances of our LGBTI+ rainbow family obviously escape them.)
That’s why we have consistently said other LGBTI media and organizations are not truly our competitors. They are our friends. Our only Rather than working with us to enemy has always been engage and serve LGBTI tokenism and apathy. In fact, people year round, many have there are very few who serve chosen to ‘rainbow wash’. They our global LGBTI community. have turned their logo rainbow And if companies and sponsors colored for Pride week or took us even half as seriously month and – at best – made a as we deserve as LGBTI small donation to an LGBTI people, there would be far good cause. Worst still, we more of us and we would be have learned that some brands hugely successful. have done this while at the So we would like to thank our same time funding anti-LGBTI ‘competitors’ for keeping us politicians to the tune of honest and making us millions of dollars. Tokenism innovate. Your work is vital. has reached a new low.
And with us gone, please support those who are left – or eventually there will be none left. To avoid any doubt, our problem has been entirely financial. By all the statistics, Gay Star News is now more widely read, watched and loved by the international LGBTI audience than ever. It is a sad paradox that our popularity has not transferred into our survival. We are convinced we are closing at a time when more people want and need what we offer than ever before.

Bragging That ‘Discrimination Is No Longer Tolerated in Texas’ Gov. Signs Bill Allowing AntiLGBT Discrimination By Jennifer Davis
Surrounded by still-wrapped Chick-fil-A sandwiches, soda cups, supporters, and a small cow with the words “eat mor chikin” on its side, Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott Thursday evening told reporters that “discrimination Is no longer tolerated in Texas.” He then signed a bill that not only allows but enables anti-LGBT discrimination. “No business should be discriminated against simply because its owners gave to a church, the Salvation Army, or to any other religious organization,” Gov. Abbott,

organization, they have donated millions of dollars to actively anti-LGBT organizations and donated to at least one anti-gay hate group. The save Chick-fil-A bill was a rapid response to a move made by the San Antonio city council to ban Chick-fil-A from its public airport’s food court.

financial contribution to the project - for perspective, the $208.3 million obligation trumps the $153.3 million city-wide capital improvement plan proposed for next year and it’s unclear when the city will begin making payments or how the city will pay for the work. A city spokeswoman hasn’t made Curry or other city officials available for an interview. Council President Scott Wilson said he hasn’t seen a written version of the agreement, and he doesn’t know when it will be introduced for the council’s approval. The entertainment district is based on similar concepts operated by The Cordish Companies, a partner in the development team, that are next to sports stadiums in Philadelphia, St. Louis and Arlington. Under the agreement, the city would pay $50 million toward the entertainment district’s construction. While that figure is expected to be half of the construction cost, the company can use the balance of the payment towards other expenses if the total cost falls below $100 million. The developers would be responsible for operating the district under the lease, which includes paying for maintenance, repairs and capital improvements. The city would open a special account to pay for future improvements that would be supported by surcharges added to special-event ticket and parking
sales. Parking makes up more than half of the city’s $92.8 million infrastructure commitment. The development must include a minimum of 700 surface lot spaces and 600 spaces that would be part of the residential tower, hotel, office tower, as well as on-street parking. The developers have the option of providing complimentary parking on the surface lot to patrons of the entertainment district - they can also charge a fee - and the garage and street-level parking would be reserved for residents, hotel guests and employees. The city’s other infrastructure costs include $33.2 million for site improvements, like sidewalks and streets, and $6.3 million for environmental remediation of the property, which remains contaminated from its past life as an industrial site. The agreement provides flexibility for the developers to change their plans. For instance, the office tower or hotel could be replaced with a 300-unit residential high-rise, and the luxury residential high-rise could be replaced with a similar mid-rise development.
