District Attorney appoints LGBT liaison By Jen Colletta jen@epgn.com Helen “Nellie” Fitzpatrick is a member of both the Philadelphia District Attorney’s office and the city’s LGBT community — and in her new position will be working to open the lines of communication between the two. The DA’s office announced last week that Fitzgerald will serve as the office’s first LGBT liaison. Fitzpatrick, 31, came to the city in 2008 from her native Florida to work as an assistant district attorney in the Philadelphia Municipal Court division and later moved to the Family Violence and Sexual Assault Unit. A 2002 graduate of the University of Florida, Fitzpatrick earned her law degree from the Florida Coastal School of Law in 2008. While she had an initial goal of working in the legal area of the music industry, her focus shifted in part because of her active involvement in the LGBT community. “It wasn’t until I started law

school that I saw that there were so many more important causes out there that appealed to me, like criminal prosecution. I wanted to work with victims and especially victims in the LGBT community,” she said. “Often, the needs, concerns and fears that LGBT victims have in relation to the criminaljustice process are not recognized or addressed, and I saw that happening in Florida when I was in school. It was frustrating and it was something that I brought with me to Philadelphia.” Since joining the DA’s office, Fitzpatrick said she has been open about her sexual orientation and vocal about the unmet needs of LGBT victims, serving as an unofficial clearinghouse for other ADAs working with such clients. “If someone has a victim that they’re able to determine is a member of the community, they have come to me asking if there’s anything they should be doing, anything they should be keeping in mind. There have been cases where a victim has not wanted to participate in the process because of fears, and I’ve gone and talked

to them,” she said. While many LGBT victims may have concerns over working with the system, efforts to allay those fears have been challenging, Fitzpatrick said, partially because of the inherent difficulty in identifying LGBT victims. “It’s very hard to recognize someone as a member of the LGBT community because we’re

DOJ files brief in PA DOMA case

NJ considers marriage, again

By Jen Colletta jen@epgn.com

By Jen Colletta jen@epgn.com As the New Jersey Senate began its new session this week, it turned its attention first to marriage equality. A bill to legalize same-sex marriage was the first measure to see introduction in both the Senate and Assembly on Wednesday, and both versions have the support of high-ranking leaders in the Democrat-led state legislature. The Assembly version is being led by Assemblyman Reed Gusciora, who is openly gay, and Assembly Speaker Sheila Oliver, while the Senate version was taken up by Senate Majority Leader Loretta Weinberg, along with Senate President Stephen Sweeney and Sen. Raymond Lesniak. PAGE 2 The New Jersey Senate

of all different races, religions, colors, socioeconomic statuses. It’s easy to go into a courtroom and see someone from Cambodia who needs an interpreter, but it’s not as easy to see a courtroom with an LGBT person and see what their individual needs are and what they may be fearful of or questioning,” she said. “I started speaking up about this, and when

[DA] Seth [Williams] took office, he really wanted the office to have more of a presence in the community because he recognized that there is this very large community that is basically silent.” The office announced last year that it was creating the liaison position, and Fitzpatrick jumped at the chance to bridge the gap between her two respective communities. The position is volunteer, and Fitzpatrick will be tasked with balancing it on top of her full caseload as an ADA, a welcome challenge, she said. “This is something that’s so important to me that, regardless of the pressure it’ll put on me or the time constraints, it’s something I’m really looking forward to taking on,” she said. As liaison, Fitzpatrick said her primary function will be to serve as a resource and outlet for LGBTs in the city who have any questions or concerns about interacting with any aspect of the criminal-justice system. “I want to meet with anyone and PAGE 15 everyone who

The Department of Justice has continued to support its finding that the federal ban on same-sex marriage is unconstitutional with a recent filing in a Pennsylvania case. The DOJ filed a brief late last month in Cozen O’Connor v. Tobits, a federal case in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, arguing for the unconstitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act. The department determined last year that the section of DOMA that defines marriage as being between one man and one woman is unconstitutional. The Cozen case marks the seventh time the DOJ has submitted filings arguing that position. It is the first such case in Pennsylvania. The case developed after Sarah Ellyn Farley, a partner in law firm Cozen O’Connor, died in 2009. Her wife, Jennifer

Tobits, is seeking the $41,000 in death benefits from Cozen; however, Farley’s parents are arguing that they are the beneficiaries of the private profit-sharing plan. While Farley was based out of Chicago, the firm is headquartered in Philadelphia, resulting in the case being filed in Pennsylvania. The case is the first that questions whether a private employer can give benefits governed by the federal Employee Retirement Income Security Act to same-sex spouses. ERISA does not limit the definition of “spouse” by gender. Tobits and Farley were married in Canada in 2006. Cozen automatically considers an employee’s “spouse” as his or her beneficiary, unless the individual designates someone else. Farley’s parents, David and Joan, submitted a beneficiary form to Cozen PAGE 15 dated the day before their

Area LGBT groups get $100K By Jen Colletta jen@epgn.com Twenty local agencies received checks Monday night from an LGBT grantmaking agency to support their work on LGBT and HIV/ AIDS causes. The Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld Fund distributed $100,000 to the agencies in a presentation at the William Way LGBT Community Center. The funding was generated through state grants, with individ-

ual awards ranging from $2,000$10,000. Each grant was grouped into a specific category, such as HIV/AIDS education and outreach for LGBT youth, seniors or nondiscrimination issues. The 20 beneficiaries were The Attic Youth Center, William Way LGBT Community Center, Mazzoni Center, ASIAC, Gay and Lesbian Latino AIDS Education Initiative, The Colours Organization Inc., BEBASHI, Action AIDS, AIDS

Fund, Philly Pride Presents, Philadelphia Black Gay Pride, AIDS Law Project of Pennsylvania, Independence Business Alliance, Equality Pennsylvania, SafeGuards, Pennsylvania Student Equality Coalition, Black Gay Men’s Leadership Council, Center for Advocacy for the Rights and Interests for the Elderly, the American Civil Liberties Union of Pennsylvania and the Philadelphia Gay Tourism Caucus. About 60 people turned out for the check presentation, and DMH board member Micah Mahjoubian said it was a rewarding evening. “It felt really good to be able to give back to the community in a way that really helps, especially since there have been some issues recently with AIDS service providers not getting enough funding,” he said. “Even though what we gave out wasn’t on a very large scale, it still was great to be able to help.” DMH president and PGN publisher Mark Segal said grants were a good way to kickstart the new year for the LGBT community. “We want our community to get the year off to a great start,” Segal said. “We want 2012 to be a great year for the LGBT community.” ■

defeated a marriage-equality bill in January 2010 in a 20-14 vote, with three abstentions. Sweeney was one of the lawmakers who abstained but has since denounced that choice and come out squarely in favor of marriage equality. At a press conference Monday, Sweeney said he believed the measure would have the 21 needed votes for Senate passage, but did not provide a clear indication of whether backers could muster the 27 votes required to override a gubernatorial veto. R e p u b l i c a n G ov. C h r i s Christie has said he opposes same-sex marriage and would veto a marriage-equality bill. If the measure were to reach Christie’s desk, he could, however, take no action on the bill, which would enable it to become law. Sweeney said he wants a floor vote on the measure before March. Oliver also said she would fast-track the measure through her chamber. “All evidence shows New Jersey’s civil-union law falls far short in providing equality,” she said. “Civil unions send a message to the public that same-sex

couples and their families are not equal to married couples in the eyes of the law. It sends a message that same-sex couples are not good enough to warrant equality. This is the same wrong message we heard from segregation laws. Separate treatment was wrong then, and separate treatment is wrong now. That’s why I am committed this session to posting marriage-equality legislation and making its passage a priority as soon as possible.” The effort has the support of the majority of the federal lawmakers from New Jersey. All of the state’s nine Democratic members of the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate issued a letter to state lawmakers Jan. 6, calling on them to continue the state’s “proud history of civil-rights leadership.” The National Organization for Marriage this week pledged to spend up to $500,000 to fight marriage equality in New Jersey. Advocates are also seeking to achieve marriage equality through the courts, as a suit on behalf of a number of same-sex couples is still pending. ■

Roller derby girls organize against trans policy By Jen Colletta jen@epgn.com The Philly Roller Girls are leading a fight against a gender policy put in place at its parent organization that they say places undue burden and expectations on transgender and intersex players. PRG is a member of the Women’s Flat Track Derby Association, which adopted new restrictions last March regarding the eligibility of players due to gender. The policy, which went into effect Jan. 1, stipulates that female transgender or intersex players are welcome in the association but must meet certain criteria, including living as a woman and having sex hormones within the medically acceptable range for a female. The rule, which applies to each league’s chartered team that competes at the WFTDA level, further states that, if requested, such players be able to produce documentation from a health-care provider regarding the player’s hormone levels. WFTDA did not have a specific gender policy in the past but association executive director Juliana Gonzales said the organization sought to be “ahead of the curve.” “While certainly there were transgender and intersex athletes participating in WFTDA games, we weren’t aware of a specific conflict or issue that spurred us to adopt a policy,” she said. “This was more

of a macro issue for WFTDA: We could see trends in other sports programs that suggested it would be responsible and proactive to talk about it as an organization.” PRG does not have a gender policy, and general manager Jocelyn Jenik said she suspects the national policy could have been spurred in part by the notion that transgender players could see an athletic advantage. “I personally bristle at the idea that because someone is born male, they have an inherent advantage in flat-track roller derby. That is not the case. Roller derby is a team sport and no individual skater makes or breaks how a team performs,” she said. “I think this policy was probably produced out of fear, and that fear was then projected onto transgender skaters in a discriminatory way. The only demand for producing health-care records or private information is on transgender skaters, no one else.” Gonzales, however, contended that the regulations are a fair way to deal with a complex problem. “I don’t personally find the eligibility requirements the policy describes to be too intrusive,” she said. “I do think we struggle with how to be a women’s organization dedicated to a physical endeavor, while not being too prescriptive about the physicality of womanhood. That tension is something WFTDA and other women’s sports will have to continue to tangle with.” According to the policy, a trans or inter-

don’t have the money to put out for this, so where is that burden going to fall?” Kelly said. “But what bothers me even more about the wording of this is that transgender or intersex players can just be asked to produce this paperwork whenever. If no one asks for it, you’re fine, but if they do and you don’t have it, then you’re ineligible automatically.” Jenik suggested that, if a team loses or a player takes a bad hit, she fears that a player THE INDEPENDENCE DOLLS AT THE EAST COAST or team could retaliate by chalDERBY EXTRAVAGANZA IN PHILADELPHIA lenging the eligibility of a trans Photo: Brian Macke player. She added that the league sex player must be able to produce a signed statement from her health-care provider, felt the statement was antithetical to what printed on office letterhead, that includes the sport stands for. “Roller derby has always been a sport the provider’s license number, jurisdiction of medical license, contact information, where women of all shapes and sizes, those confirmation of relationship with the player who are girly-girls and those who are not, and judgment that her hormone levels are can all play and play well together,” Jenik within the “medically acceptable” range for said. “If they want to wear dresses, then a female, which is left up to the judgment of they wear dresses, and if they don’t, then they don’t. I don’t think WFTDA has any the provider. Rita Kelly, a transgender member of PRG business in telling people what it means to who began officiating with the league two be female.” After seeing the wording of the stateyears ago and has been training for the past year, said blood tests to determine hormone ment, Kelly brought the issue up to the PRG board, who she said shared her oppolevels can cost up to $750. “A lot of people who belong to WFTDA sition and voted against PAGE 15

Philadelphia is one of 21 cities that will host events this weekend to celebrate the contributions of the women of the LGBT community and those of a national LGBT organization. The second-annual Her HRC party will be held 9 p.m.-midnight Jan. 15 at Sisters, 1320 Chancellor St. The event, organized by Human Rights Campaign, is designed to organize women around LGBT-rights issues, said Ronna Bolante, a volunteer helping to organize the local Her HRC event. “We want to bring together women all over the United States to celebrate who they are and to engage more women in the fight for LGBT equality in the country,” she said. The inaugural Her HRC party in Philadelphia last year drew about 200 people, with the program seeing participation from more than 6,000 supporters across the country. This year, the Philly event will be staged in partnership with The Elements Organization. Bolante said Elements was the ideal group to help circulate the word about the party. “They’ve been really tremendous as far as fostering a community of empowered women, especially among women of color, so it made sense to partner with them this year to try and reach out to even more people,” she said. The crowd is expected to be diverse, representing a wide range of backgrounds and ages. Allies and men are also welcome to

The tool is the next step in the agency’s planning process to apply for Federally Qualified Health Center status, a designation that would enable the organization to expand its services to target underserved LGBT and low-income populations. The 10-minute online survey will explore the demographic factors influencing health needs, including housing status, ethnicity and insurance status. Respondents will also be asked about perceptions of health-

attend, Bolante said. While the event will raise funds for HRC, Bolante said the more important goal is engaging new community members to promote LGBT-rights issues. The admission fee, $10, was kept low, she said, to make the event accessible to a broad range of supporters. Admission to the event will include a one-year membership to HRC.

The party will feature performances by the Liberty City Kings and spoken-word acts by representatives of Elements. Sisters will offer food and drink specials during the event. “It’s going to be a really fun night and a great opportunity to gather with women and allies involved here in efforts in the Philadelphia area,” Bolante said. “And it’s at Sisters, so what better place to celebrate women in Philadelphia?” For more information or to pre-order tickets, visit www.hrc.org/herhrc.

New name, location for Blue Ball By Jen Colletta jen@epgn.com Sapphire Fund’s annual fundraising festivity Blue Ball Weekend celebrated its 20th — and final — anniversary last year, as it has been revamped and redesigned for 2012. The event has been rebranded as Sapphire Weekend, which will run Jan. 27-29, with the new signature Sapphire Ball scheduled that Saturday at the Franklin Institute. Domenic Gallelli, president of Sapphire Fund, which raises money for LGBT causes, said the organization was looking to broaden the appeal of the weekend with the changes. “We think Blue Ball ran its course,” Gallelli said. “It’s an event that served a great purpose but it had a certain connotation that lent itself to being considered a dance party, which it was, but because of that, it isolated large segments of the LGBT community and allies who felt that that wasn’t the ideal choice for them. So we decided it was time for a complete change.” The ball will be held in Monument Hall

News Briefing Cardinal apologizes for linking gays to KKK Yahoo News reports Chicago’s Cardinal Francis George is apologizing for remarks comparing an annual gay-rights parade to a Ku Klux Klan rally. George said he has gay and lesbian family members, and his remarks “evidently wounded a good number of people. I am sorry for the hurt.” The cardinal’s remarks last month were prompted by plans by gay Pride leaders to route a parade that would have interfered with services at a church. He said it resembled anti-Catholic marches once staged by the Klan. The time of the parade was changed. An official of The Civil Rights Agenda, which called for George’s resignation because of his remarks, said Jan. 6 that he is pleased by the cardinal’s apology.

Victim in hazing death was gay Advocate.com reports the parents of a Florida A&M University band member killed during a hazing ritual have revealed that their son was gay, although they do not believe that his sexual orientation was the

of the Franklin Institute, with entertainment provided by a 10-piece band. In a tribute to its former moniker, the semi-formal event is being billed as “bluetie” optional, and guests are encouraged, but not required, to wear masquerade attire. The Sapphire Ball Reception, from 8-10 p.m., will include an open bar and heavy hors d’oeuvres, and guests at Sapphire Ball Live, from 10 p.m.-1 a.m., can partake in a wide selection of desserts and the live music. “It’s a really cool space with great lighting and a really sexy feel,” Gallelli said. “Everyone likes to get dressed up and go out, and this is a really unique event that a lot of different people in the LGBT community will enjoy.” Sapphire Weekend will open with the Winter Wonderland Stimulus party held at Voyeur Jan. 27 and will wrap up with the Sapphire Brunch, 11 a.m.-3 p.m. Jan. 29 at The Pyramid Club. Gallelli said Sapphire Fund has reached out to a number of its former beneficiaries to make the weekend a more “interactive” community celebration. Proceeds from primary reason for the attack. Robert Champion Jr. was found unresponsive on a bus in Orlando last November after a Florida Classic football game. Although no one has been charged in the incident, an autopsy ruled Champion’s death a homicide and concluded Champion suffered blunt trauma to his body and died from shock caused by severe bleeding. The family’s attorney, Chris Chestnut, said it may or may not have been Champion’s sexual orientation that led to him being singled out. Witnesses have said that Champion’s vocal opposition to hazing rituals and his candidacy for chief drum major may have played roles as well.

Civil unions weighed again in CO, some GOP support Colorado’s KJCT8.com reports legislation granting Colorado same-sex couples similar rights to married couples will be considered again this year. The topic was among the most emotional in the Legislature last year. Gay couples pleaded for equal rights before a Republicanled committee voted down the idea. This time, Republicans are drumming up support for civil unions but prospects remain unclear in the House committee where it will eventually land. The bill would give gay couples the ability to be involved in their partner’s medical decisions, enhance inheritance and parental rights and make health-insurance coverage easier. The bill is expected to be introduced as lawmakers convene for the new session. ■ — compiled by Larry Nichols

Sapphire Weekend will benefit the National Adoption Center and Child Advocates, two agencies that have spearheaded LGBT-specific adoption initiatives. Sapphire Fund was one of the agencies that last year supported the National Adoption Center’s Adoption Café series, which provided resources and advice to prospective LGBT parents in the area. Sapphire Fund is looking to raise $100,000 from the weekend, and is anticipating a guest list of up to 600 for Sapphire Ball. The new look of the weekend meshes well with the organization’s refreshed direction,

Gallelli said. “We’ve worked really hard to recruit new board members and we’re going to be placing more of an emphasis on development, programming and education and more of a focus on getting a broader scope of the community involved,” he said. “We have a new logo for the ball, we’re reinventing our organization’s logo and we’ve refined our mission. We’re really excited to be opening this up to have a wider, mainstream appeal.” Tickets can be purchased at www.sapphirefund.org. ■

Creep of the Week

D’Anne Witkowski

Rick Santorum (again!)

Editorial

Losing to raise This week, PGN is launching Weigh It Forward, a weight-loss fundraiser. Conceived by Franny Price, executive director of Philly Pride Presents, the project will raise money for Philly Pride, The Attic Youth Center and the William Way LGBT Community Center. Between now and Pride Day, June 10, four individuals will lose weight. For every pound they shed, community members can pledge to donate a minimum of 50 cents per pound (or a flat amount). This week, PGN has included a photo of each person and his or her starting weight. At Pride, the four participants will weigh in — on stage. This is going to be hard work for the participants: Franny, Dan Calhoun, Debbie Spadefora and Micah Mahjoubian. Each is known in the community, and this is a very public way of facing their weight and making a commitment to lose some of it, to eat better, to exercise — and to raise money for LGBT nonprofits. They will have help. Franny will work with Jo-Ellen Marks from Optimal Sport Health Clubs; Dan will work with Jared Carter from Move Forward Fitness; Debbie will work with Noe Espinoza from 12th Street Gym and Micah will work with Gavin McKay from Fusion Cross-Training. They’ll receive fitness, health and nutrition coaching; some will receive medical assessments too. As a community, we need to support and encourage them as well. Making good choices — whether it’s food or fitness or health — is a conscious effort, and one many of us, this editor included, could do better at. (I’ll be working on my eating habits and am going to give Fusion a try. What are you doing?) If we let these folks down, the community loses out too. So, let’s offer support, both in pledges and applauding their good choices. Franny, Dan, Debbie and Micah have already taken a big step toward better health by participating in this. Their names and faces will be out there, they have agreed to put in the work. They’ve gone public with their weight. They’ve already shown strength by doing that much. Over the next five months, they’ll need more strength — and they’ll build it. While none of us has experienced another’s life journey — we don’t know what others have faced and why they made the choices they have — each of us can have empathy for where someone is now and the work he or she is doing. Regardless of how a person got to his or her present place, the mere fact that these four individuals have put themselves forward deserves our respect. We got your back. ■

I’ll be frank. I’m tired of writing about Rick Santorum. But the man just cut an incredible antigay streak across New Hampshire. Come on, Rick, give the other guys a chance! On Jan. 5, Santorum made the tired “same-sex couples getting marriage equals inevitable polygamy” argument. Then the next day he told a town-hall meeting that marriage was “an essential good,” which is why gays can’t have it since gays are, you know, essentially bad. During a campaign speech on Jan. 7 at a private boarding school (I didn’t think that kids could vote, but then again maybe rich kids can. Hell, at this point that would not surprise me at all), he actually told the audience that they’d be better off with a dad in jail than with two same-sex parents. Mind you, he claimed that this “fact” came from an unnamed researcher, but Santorum is still the one who stood in front of a crowd of kids and said it out loud. “[The expert] found that even fathers in jail who had abandoned their kids were still better than no father at all to have in their children’s lives,” Santorum spewed. Totally true. Kids with daddies in jail are so lucky. Known fact. Kids with gay parents are sooooo jealous. Especially the three students in the audience who, according to the school’s headmaster, have gay parents. Well played, Rick. No doubt these kids will start up some prison pen-pal relationships to make up for what is missing in their lives. Although, Santorum did just mention missing fathers, so maybe he’s just talking about lesbian parents? Maybe having two daddies is OK so long as one of them is in prison? It’s all so confusing. Which is why America must now allow same-sex couples to marry and have kids. “Marriage is not a right,” Santorum said, according to the Los Angeles Times. “It’s a privilege that is given to society by society for a reason.” And that reason? “We want to encourage what is the best for children.”

Otherwise we’re “robbing children of something they need, they deserve, they have a right to,” he said. “You may rationalize that that isn’t true, but in your own life and in your own heart, you know it’s true.” OK, first of all, what does “given to society by society for a reason” even mean? Last time I checked, gays and lesbians are part of society. Santorum likes to talk about “we” and “America” as if gays and lesbians are some shiftless souls on the outskirts of civilization. Which, to use Santorum’s own words, requires quite a bit of rationalizing. Far more rationalizing than being able to admit that gay and lesbian parents are raising lots of kids who are doing just fine. Better than fine, even. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that a kid with two loving, committed parents is pretty fortunate. Even if both of those parents are moms or dads. And especially if neither is having their cellmate ink a teardrop on their face with a tattoo machine fashioned out of a Bic pen, toothbrush and a guitar string. ■

During a campaign speech on Jan. 7 at a private boarding school, he actually told the audience that they’d be better off with a dad in jail than with two samesex parents.

Making the case for bigotry By Victoria A. Brownworth Special to PGN My parents were Socialists and civilrights workers, so I was raised with the core belief that everyone is equal. As a consequence, I am always stunned when people I otherwise respect show themselves to be bigots. I felt that shock on Monday while listening to NPR and heard WHYY news director Chris Satullo’s editorial about former Pennsylvania senator and presidential hopeful Rick Santorum. One might have expected an excoriating screed on NPR. After all, it’s the one remaining liberal voice on the radio airwaves and does nothing to disguise that center-left-leaning bias. But Satullo, who

hired Santorum as a columnist when he was editorial-page editor at the Inquirer, gave praise to Santorum, saying, “You can sharply disagree with someone, yet still recognize he is a thoughtful, ethical person.” Satullo ended with this caveat: “I know my gay friends will never agree. How could they, given Santorum’s iron stance against homosexuality? But in Rick Santorum, there is, along with the anger and rigidity, a decency deserving of respect. I don’t expect his moment of success on the presidential trail to last, but I’m glad it happened.” Alas, our own community deserves some blame for this editorial tolerance of homophobia.

Open letter on CDC High Impact HIV Prevention awards By Donald F. Schwarz Commissioner Philadelphia Department of Public Health

Community members — in particular members of communities of color — have expressed concern over the 2012 allocations of CDC-funded High Impact HIV Prevention Services recently announced by the Philadelphia Department of Public Health. They have asked for an explanation of how these allocations will impact HIV prevention in the City of Philadelphia, particularly in high-risk communities of color. They also seek more information about the funding allocation process. The goal of the High Impact HIV Prevention Services funding allocations was to dramatically increase HIV testing in high-incidence, geographically targeted areas in order to increase the number of people who know their HIV status and are linked to medical care, partner services and prevention programs. People who are unaware of their status drive the epidemic. Research shows that once individuals learn they are HIV-positive, they take steps to protect their own health and prevent HIV transmission to others. Reaching HIV-positive individuals is the core of the President’s National HIV/AIDS Strategy, the CDC’s new HIV-prevention priorities and the Philadelphia Health Department’s strategic direction to reduce HIV infection. Because of the disproportionately high rate of HIV/AIDS in minority communities, reaching HIV-positive African Americans and Latinos, particularly men who have sex with men, through an effective, strategic testing program was the critical factor in making these High Impact Prevention Services awards. An agency’s track record in reaching HIV-infected individuals through its testing program was an important factor in selecting agencies that were funded. The allocation process began with a Request for Proposals for funding issued by the AIDS Activities Coordinating Office based on the CDC funding requirements and the Philadelphia Comprehensive HIV Prevention Plan, which is produced annually by the HIV Community Planning Group housed in the City’s Office of HIV Planning. Since the mid-1990s, the HIV Resource Allocations Advisory Committee (RAAC) evaluates all proposals and makes specific funding recommendations to the health commissioner, who makes the final allocation decisions. The RAAC was created to assure objective review of all eligible proposals. Along with making recommendations to the commissioner, they identify strengths and weaknesses in proposals that are provided to the applicant upon request. One half of the membership of the RAAC consists of persons living with HIV/AIDS from the community, and

all members must be free of potential conflicts of interest in the outcomes of their recommendations at all times (not just at the time of appointment). The committee is representative of the community and of the epidemic in Philadelphia and the eight surrounding counties. Committee members are continuously trained on the shifting dynamics of the epidemic and the federal, state and city’s response. Since its creation in the mid-1990s, the membership of the RAAC has been confidential to ensure no one is subject to undue influence or pressure by grant applicants. The Department of Public Health/AACO understands that it is imperative to work in partnership with community-based agencies that have specialized in helping people of color, not only with this High Impact HIV Prevention Services CDC funding but with other city, state and federal prevention funding. It means that while some agencies received funding from High Impact HIV Prevention Services dollars, other agencies continue to receive other AACO dollars. For instance, The Attic received level funding from HIV Impact HIV Prevention Services RFP, and in addition receives $165,274 in other AACO funds. The Safeguards Project of the Family Planning Council of SEPA received an increase in funding through this RFP and, in addition, receives $179,474 in other AACO prevention and testing funds. The complex nature of AACO funding sources and the variety of RFPs that AACO puts out each year make it at times confusing about whether a given funding decision disadvantages or changes an organization’s funding from AACO. This is relevant to other agencies cited with concern by community members when AACO announced the funding levels coming from this RFP. YO-ACAP, BEBASHI and GALAEI had not received CDC prevention funding in the past so did not experience a decrease in funding. They continue to receive other prevention funds from AACO (BEBASHI: $468,294; YO-ACAP: $346,406; and GALAEI: $319,687). After a meeting between AACO and the COLOURS board of directors, called because of the unexpected death of its executive director, the COLOURS Organization received $135,000 in CDC funds, which is a cut of $55,000 in CDC funds, and also continues to receive $15,000 in other AACO prevention funds. Tough funding decisions will become increasingly common as federal and state dollars shrink. Consistent with the president and CDC’s HIV prevention plans, we must intensify proven prevention interventions where HIV is most heavily concentrated and increase the percentage of HIV-diagnosed men who have sex with men, African Americans and Latinos who are linked to care. We believe these most recent funding allocations are consistent with this goal. ■

his “continuing to evolve” on marriage equality and holds Bradley Manning in indefinite detention, we act like he’s not a bigot, but our ally. So why wouldn’t Satullo think it was OK to salute Santorum as “ethical” and act, along with Obama, like it is us queers who are at fault for expecting more? It’s not just Satullo’s “gay friends” who should disagree with him — it’s every non-bigot in the listening audience. You can’t have a “stance against homosexuality” without dismissing 5-10 percent of the population. This isn’t arguing over school vouchers or meatless Mondays in the cafeteria. It’s the civil rights of an entire community. Bigotry is not OK. Not the blatant bigotry of Santorum, the jocular bigotry of Obama nor the someof-my-best-friends-are bigotry of Satullo. Were a white president to joke about “still evolving” on black civil rights or an NPR exec to editorialize on the ethics of a racist or a presidential candidate to proclaim that people of color were the same as animals, would it be tolerated? Of course not. Yet that’s what all three of these guys are doing, at our expense. The moral relativism that Santorum, Obama and Satullo are using to disguise or excuse their bigotry is hardly ethical and deserves a level of outrage that goes beyond the occasional glitter bomb or sweater-vest jibe. Why do we make excuses for straight people who claim to be our allies? Satullo is right: Santorum is honest about his bigotry; he doesn’t put it back on us, making us think our belief that we deserve equality is a collective character flaw. We should call for Satullo’s resignation. NPR pundit Juan Williams was fired for just implying that Muslims were terrorists. How is this different? Raise the bar, people. In our eagerness to be mainstreamed, we seem to forget that casual, off-hand bigotry like Satullo’s or Obama’s is no different from the blatant sort expounded by Santorum. If we’re going to boo Santorum off the stage, then we shouldn’t vote for Obama again and we should call for Satullo’s ouster. There’s no such thing as a little bit of bigotry. If you wouldn’t say it about your own kind, then don’t say it about mine. Satullo insulted every LGBT person in America with his commentary. Does he have a First Amendment right to be a bigot? Sure. But let him promote his admiration of a hater from a street corner instead of from a highly paid post at NPR. ■

daughter’s death. While the form contains a signature purportedly from Farley, Tobits did not sign under the spousal consent section, although that line is notarized. The Farleys are contending that, in addition to the beneficiary form naming them, they are entitled to the money because DOMA prevents the firm from recognizing Tobits as Farley’s spouse. The parents are also arguing that Pennsylvania’s ban on same-sex marriage would further prohibit the firm from offering Tobits the benefits. Shannon Minter, executive director of the National Center for Lesbian Rights, which is representing Tobits, asserted that Cozen O’Connor is trying to “hide behind DOMA in order to justify its refusal to honor the terms of its own benefits plan.” “The plan defines a spouse as anyone who is legally married. It does not exclude a same-sex spouse. And yet, Cozen O’Connor is refusing to pay the benefit to Jennifer Tobits, who is the surviving spouse of Ellyn LIAISON from page 1

While Jenik said PRG has been home to many lesbian and bisexual members, Kelly is the first known transgender member. “Rita really set the stage,” Jenik said. “Before tryouts, she came to us and told us she was transgender and was very smart in how she approached everything and very open. It’s easy for people to be afraid of something they don’t know, but Rita has been able to really heighten awareness and has gotten so much support from the team.” Once the board decided to oppose the policy, it submitted a letter to the member organizations and a petition to WFTDA leadership that garnered signatures from several-hundred players during the East Coast Derby, held in Philadelphia in June. Also at the derby, PRG distributed a brochure detailing the issue and temporary tattoos with a symbol for transgender pride, which Jenik said were popular among players from around the nation at the derby and were worn by PRG members throughout the remainder of the summer season. Gonzales said the policy passed by a “compelling majority” of votes, although she noted the dissenting opinion was not “unrepresented,” and there were slightly more abstentions than usual. Per the new policy, WFTDA member leagues are required to submit a statement verifying that their charter team members fit the criteria.

Farley, by falsely claiming that DOMA prohibits it from doing so,” Minter said. “It is outrageous that Cozen is refusing to honor its own commitment to its employees.” However, because the issues of the federal and state DOMA were raised, Judge Darnell Jones gave DOJ and the Pennsylvania Attorney General the opportunity to file briefs in the case before his scheduled March 12 ruling. Pennsylvania AG Linda Kelly did not submit a brief by the Dec. 30 deadline. AG spokesperson Nils Frederiksen said that, as a general policy, the office does not “intervene in private-party lawsuits at the trial-court level when both sides are adequately represented.” “At this stage, this is not a case we would intervene in,” he added. “We will continue to monitor it and future action could be considered should the case go to the appellate level, but we would review it then and proceed from there.” Additionally, Frederiksen said the

Pennsylvania same-sex marriage ban is a “secondary issue” in the case. In its filing, the DOJ argued that cases involving sexual-orientation discrimination should be subject to “heightened scrutiny” review, which would hold the government to stricter standards to justify denying equal rights to LGBTs. When looked at through that lens, the department said, DOMA would fail. The DOJ filing was submitted with a joint amicus brief by the Human Rights Campaign and Equality Forum. Equality Forum executive director Malcolm Lazin said repealing DOMA is the next defining issue for the LGBT community. “DOMA has remarkable ramifications across all areas of our community, and the reason Equality Forum got involved in this was that, as we start to attack individual sections of this law, it helps to undermine the entirety of the law,” Lazin said. “I think people don’t really understand the impact

of DOMA and how it’s involved in literally every aspect of our lives — from Social Security benefits to immigration issues.” A number of national organizations filed briefs supporting DOMA, including Concerned Women for America and Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays and Gays. While Minter welcomed the DOJ’s opposition to DOMA, he said NCLR is optimistic that Jones will agree with his client that DOMA does not play a role in the case. “[The case] is about requiring employers to provide the benefits they say they are going to provide,” he said. “If Cozen did not want to provide equal benefits to samesex spouses, it should have said so, but it did not. DOMA applies to federally mandated benefits, but it does not tie the hands of private employers, who are perfectly free to honor the marriages of their lesbian, gay and bisexual employees. The DOJ brief shows that Cozen’s attempt to hide behind DOMA is absurd.” ■

Fitzpatrick is in the process of setting up meetings with the city’s director of LGBT affairs and the police LGBT liaison. She also plans to develop LGBT educational opportunities for both the DA’s office and the police department and will work to help build the case for a statewide LGBTinclusive hate-crimes law. “I want to use this opportunity to start to accurately and aggressively monitor crimes that are hate-based and that are affecting the LGBT community,” she said. “We

need to be using that information to not only work toward successful prosecution but also to look at the bigger issue, which is why we still do not have legislation that protects members of our community from hate crimes. That is completely unacceptable.” While Fitzpatrick will be challenged with building the liaison position from the ground up, she said she will be doing so with the full backing of the DA’s office. “We have so much support from the

office for this,” she said. “Many people have come to me and sent me emails saying they’re so proud that we’re doing this and offering to volunteer their time to help in any way, shape or form. And these are not just members of our community, but everyone from people who have been in the office for 20 years to people brand new to the DA’s office.” To contact Fitzpatrick, email helen. fitzpatrick@phila.gov or call 215-6868094. ■

Jenik said PRG has not yet made a decision on how to handle that process, should an issue arise with a transgender player. Gonzales said it’s important for advocates like PRG to raise awareness about the transgender community. “In addition to adopting a responsible policy, WFTDA has to continue cultivating a progressive and tolerant culture to protect ourselves from internal discrimination,” she said. “Policy can’t be trusted to protect us amidst an intolerant culture. I think it’s very fair for Philly Roller Girls to be vigilant advocates in these early years of the policy.” WFTDA could revisit the policy in the future, depending on the views of its member organizations, Gonzales said.

“I’ve never seen a nonprofit this size that is so dynamic and adaptive to change as WFTDA,” she said. “If the membership wants a new policy — or no policy — they will vote, and it will change.” In talking with other WFTDA trans members, Kelly said she came to see that having a general policy statement on gender identity can be a positive — as some players faced discrimination from their leagues — but it should be one that sets out the same requirements for women of all identities. The unanimous support that PRG has expressed for the transgender community, Kelly said, has been impressive. “I know I can count on them to put the weight of the league behind my fight for equal rights,” she said. ■

Time to rebalance your portfolio? LEGAL & PROFESSIONAL DIRECTORY

Q: It looks like my investment portfolio has shifted a bit from where it was at the beginning of last year. Is now a good time to rebalance it? A: I’m sure you’re not the only one with this issue. As 2011 was quite volatile at times, it wouldn’t surprise me to find that your portfolio allocation may have shifted during the year. Here’s a little more information about rebalancing and how it may help you in the new year. Over time, some asset classes or investments inevitably outperform or underperform others, causing your portfolio allocation to shift. This is especially true during times of heightened volatility, like the markets are experiencing today. This shift, also known as “portfolio drift,” can significantly increase a portfolio’s risk and cause it to become misaligned with its target allocation. To address this problem, you will need to periodically rebalance your portfolio, or adjust the investment mix so that it reflects your target allocation or risk profile. Many investors dislike rebalancing because it means selling winners in favor of losers. In addition, rebalancing can also generate transaction fees, as well as taxes on gains created by selling securities. Nonetheless, most financial professionals believe the advantages of rebalancing outweigh the disadvantages.

domestic stocks. For the fixed-income portion of your portfolio, you might break your allocation into U.S. Treasuries, municipals and corporate bonds. If you’re pursuing income from bonds, you may want to know the split among short, medium and long maturities. How often should you rebalance? The usual answer is any time your goals change; otherwise, at least once a year. However, to keep close tabs on your investment plan and make sure it doesn’t drift far from your objectives, you may prefer to set a percentage limit of variance, say 5 percent on either side of your intended target, which would trigger a review and possible rebalancing.

Cost-effective rebalancing strategies Consider these possibilities for reducing transaction costs and taxable gains when rebalancing: — Make as many changes as possible in an account that charges low trading fees — for example, a low-cost brokerage account or a 401(k) account, which may offer free transactions. Jeremy — To avoid tax liability, rebalance using new money instead of moving Gussick existing money around. Or limit your immediate tax liability by making changes when possible in a tax-deferred account like a 401(k) or an IRA. — If you’re looking for new money to help rebalance your portfolio, consider using lump-sum payCorrecting for portfolio drift ments such as a bonus or tax refund. ■ To appreciate how performance differences can affect a portfolio over time, throwing it out of sync Jeremy R.

Take a holistic view If you have multiple investment accounts, determining whether to rebalance may involve several steps, beginning with a check of your overall allocation. This entails figuring how your money is divided among asset classes in each account and then across all accounts, whether in taxable brokerage, mutual fund or tax-deferred accounts. To gain a full appreciation of your investment strategy, go beyond stocks and bonds and calculate the percentages you have in other asset classes, such as cash and real estate. In addition, you may want to evaluate your allocations to categories within an asset class. In equities, for example, you might consider the percentages in foreign and

��������� ����� ���� By Gary M. Kramer PGN Contributor

The coming-out/coming-of-age story gets a new voice in Dee Rees’ very fine feature, “Pariah.” The film is based on her 2007 short of the same name. Rees makes her protagonist Alike’s (Adepero Oduye) emotions visible from the onset. “Pariah” clearly indicates how much energy Alike spends changing in and out of her clothes to become — or hide — “Lee,” her AG (aggressive) butch identity. Her emotional struggle is palpable in every minute of “Pariah.” Such is the film’s urgency. Alike is out to her best friend Laura (Pernell Walker), a butch high-school dropout, but almost no one else. Alike’s religious mother, Audrey (Kim Wayans), suspects her daughter is a lesbian. “I’m tired of [her] tomboy,” she laments. Mom obviously objects to Laura. Audrey asks her husband, Arthur (Charles Parnell), to talk to his daughter about her sexuality. Given that Arthur threatens a man who makes a degrading comment about his daughter and her masculine appearance, this is not going to be a conversation he wants to have any time soon. “Pariah” sets up the family dynamics that build to the expected confrontation: a searing, shattering moment. Until that time, Alike consistently fights with her mother about everything from her curfew to her appearance. Not helping matters, the well-intentioned Audrey buys her daughter pink blouses that Alike has no intention of wearing. Alike’s relationship with her father is more loving. She is often called “Daddy’s Girl.” A scene in

a kitchen, when Alike and Arthur discuss things they both know about the other without actually saying what they want to (or should) express, is particularly vivid. Rees shoots these episodes, like most of the film, in a kitchen-sink style, and they provide the realistic “Pariah” with its emotional core. Another strength of the film is that Rees and Oduye make Alike’s character ingratiating from the start. She is a smart student and a bright writer who pens poems about butterflies suffocating in their cocoons — an apt, if obvious, metaphor for her own feelings. In school, Alike tends to keep to herself. In fact, she tries to be invisible, eavesdropping on the conversations of other girls, or trying not to be seen. Episodes where she transforms her appearance — on a late-night bus, or in the high-school bathroom — testify to this; they expose her lack of self-confidence. Alike’s poetry teacher suggests she “go deeper,” and this advice extends to mean that she needs to investigate her sexual identity further. Although Alike is anxious to explore her sexuality, she is also afraid. In one early comic scene, she asks Laura to help her get a strap-on to possibly seduce a girl she is crushed on at a club. In a later, potent dramatic moment, Alike experiences heartbreak, and turns over trashcans in the streets and messes up her room in rage. These scenes adeptly illustrate the high-strung emotions of a confused teenager, grappling with her desires. A large part of “Pariah” depicts Alike’s relationship with Bina (Aasha Davis), a student at her school that Audrey wants her daughter to PAGE 20

befriend. While the two teens initially have little in common, they soon bond over music. Their friendship develops into a romance that helps Alike express her true self — cautiously at first, and then completely. “Pariah” represents this maturation visually as well. (The film justly won a prize for cinematography at Sundance earlier this year). In early scenes, there are blurry sources of light that, over the course of the film, become sharper, as Alike herself finds clarity. Rees composes her shots with a keen eye. At times, the director frames Alike in silhouette. This adds dimension to — and reinforces the meanings of — Alike’s gender, sexuality and identity. Rees carefully explores these themes, but also lets her characters reveal themselves. Alike has many scenes where she smiles privately or proudly — playing basketball with her father, during her budding romance with Bina — and her glow is infectious.

aged us to get up on stage and speak our poetry. It came from me. It was the most personal thing — I could get stuff out that was going on — not feeling beautiful, or not fitting in or odd man out.

“Pariah” succeeds because of Oduye’s impressive turn in the title role. She makes Alike’s transformation, with all its joy and heartbreak, moving. Kim Wayans, however, is a bit one-note as Audrey, a woman who means well but comes across as a bit of a monster. That said, a lunch scene late in the film between mother and daughter is particularly chilling. Rees may have made a familiar comingout story, but its reliance on the tropes do not make Alike’s articulation of her desires and frustrations seem cliché. ■

PGN: Did you write Alike’s poetry? AO: Dee [Rees, the writer/director] sent me a notebook, and said to start writing as Alike. I wrote a whole bunch of stuff in that book. PGN: How did you approach what/how Alike reveals herself to people? AO: I relate to that idea of stepping back and observing and checking out the scene — see how people are. Figure that out, and then determine what you can reveal to certain people. I feel that Alike is very much like observing someone/ thing and then, based on what she figures out, [decides] that person’s OK. PGN: You use your expressions —

smiles especially — and body language very well to communicate what Alike is from page 19

inspired Rees to become a filmmaker, it was screenwriting that prompted her to develop “Pariah.” She explained, “It seemed like a way to bring the story to life. Writing a novel wasn’t the way I wanted to express myself.” Her script is authentic, and full of slang, such as the use of the term “AG” for aggressive — the type of butch Alike tries to be and her friend Laura is. “We really wanted to push the audience without explaining. We know the audience is smart and they should be able to get it,” Rees said. All the central characters in the film get important storylines, and how the characters communicate — or don’t — is what makes the film so engaging. “I think ‘Pariah’ is about loneliness — each [character] feels like a pariah — isolated in some way. This is a film of people feeling that they don’t have a place,” the director said. Rees came out when she was 27. Reflecting back on the experience, she observed, “Although I was independent, I still had to figure out how to be in the world. I knew that I loved women — that wasn’t the question — my question was how to be. I was feeling I wasn’t hard enough, or soft enough, I was kind of somewhere in between. I realized that respecting gender identity was a big deal for me — and also that my spirituality and my sexuality weren’t mutually exclusive. I had to get my parents to understand that I am the same person as I had been.” Words are important in chronicling Alike’s coming out. The film uses the her poetry to chart this, and images of a butterfly and a cocoon, or breaking free/open are vivid and revealing.

feeling. How did you develop that? AO: I don’t know! I just do it. It’s instinctive. You don’t have to do so much, to be in an open, vulnerable state. It’s that things with Alike, the moments, are so heavy and overwhelming. The times I can just smile and be ... I just express myself in all situations fully. When I’m excited or happy, or when I’m super-awkward, I just allow myself. I don’t stop myself, I just go. PGN: Speaking of awkward, what can you say about the scene where you sport a strap-on? AO: As the actor, I didn’t feel awkward about it at all. I should feel weird or embarrassed for walking on set for 8 hours with a strap-on on, but I wasn’t and I think because I wasn’t, when I had to be [embarrassed], I could be. That dichotomy of not being embarrassed at all, and this is a story I’m telling. Teenagers figure it out, and making crazy-ass mistakes is part of it. You have no idea what the heck you’re doing! ■ — Gary M. Kramer Rees reinforces the transformation theme with costumes and visuals. She said, “I had a color palate for Alike. She starts out being cocooned in drab. Her color palate starts out very brown and baggy; she’s hidden by what she’s wearing. As she comes into herself, her clothes become more fitted. When she meets Bina, color is introduced into her wardrobe. Like a butterfly, she’s coming out.” In contrast, Rees described Alike’s butch friend Laura “as a peacock, very bright, very bold.” The filmmaker insisted the main character is nothing like her friend: “Alike is neither of the things she’s changing into — she’s not the stud in the club, or a princess with rhinestones. She’s somewhere in between. The clothes show her becoming herself.” Likewise, lighting and camerawork are deliberately used to express Alike’s stages of development. Rees revealed, “Alike is a chameleon: She’s painted by the lights around her. In the club, she’s purple; on the bus, she’s green; at home she’s pink; and she is in white light by the end of the film. The size of the shots are very close as she cocooned and claustrophobic, but they open out wider and wider when she’s free. I did a wardrobe bible and showed how she changed.” Such dedication and research informs the film, and contributes to the power of Alike’s story. Rees’ approach extends to how Alike is perceived and how she perceives others. The filmmaker explained, “We are showing people responding differently to Alike. Just as she is transformed by the people she meets, she’s transforming them.” Those who see “Pariah” are likely to be transformed by Alike as well. ■

Fred Kogan: Art lessons, life lessons and three little words Man will begin to recover the moment he takes art as seriously as physics, chemistry or money. — Ernst Levy Fortunately for kids at Friends Select, art is taken as seriously there as the three R’s, and much of that is because of the innovation of art teacher Fred Kogan. PGN: Tell me a little about yourself. FK: I was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, and attended Kent State University, then moved to New York in 1986 where I got a job in fashion working for Saks Fifth Avenue. After 10 years, I realized that fashion wasn’t what I really wanted to do. I wanted to do something that gave back. So I went to Parsons School of Design and studied art education. PGN: What did you do in the fashion industry? FK: I was a rep for Ralph Lauren. PGN: [Laughs.] So can you get me a discount on a nice tweed jacket? FK: I used to be able to! PGN: Isn’t Cleveland Drew Carey country? FK: Oh yes, he’s awesome. He was from the West Side. Drew and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame were our claims to fame. PGN: What was life like growing up? FK: Well, I have two older brothers. I’m the gay baby of the family, though I didn’t come out to my family until I got to New York. It was a little harder on my mom but my dad was OK with it immediately. He’s 88 years old and a big inspiration to me. Before he retired he ran a jewelry business and volunteered as a parole officer. PGN: I didn’t know that was a volunteertype job? FK: [Laughs.] I know, but he did it for years and loved it. He was a real people person, as am I. PGN: What were you like? FK: I was a nerdy, overweight kid all through middle school. I got bullied a lot. I remember being called “Faggot Freddy Kogan.” I was always very artistic and blossomed a little in high school. But I still hide my bar mitzvah pictures: They were horrifying! PGN: What was a refuge? FK: I didn’t like my high school but I was very involved in the Jewish community, youth groups, etc. PGN: Is there a big Jewish community in Cleveland? FK: You wouldn’t believe it, but the east side of Cleveland has a very big, very

strong tight-knit Jewish community. It reminds me of the gay community in Philadelphia: Everyone seems to know each other. PGN: What was the best art project you made for your mom? FK: It was a painting that I did, an outdoor landscape with big flowers in the front and a flowing river in the back, very beautiful. They still have it in their bedroom. Well, my mom passed away this summer, but it’s still there. PGN: What’s your current title? FK: I’m the Visual Arts Department Chair at Friends Select and I teach all the middle-school art, grades five through eight. That’s an age for real developmental transition! PGN: For us non-art people, can you explain artists like Cy Twombly? Most of us look at that type of work and say, “One of your fifth graders could have done this.” FK: [Laughs.] Yes, I get that a lot. My response is always to tell someone to back up and see how the person came to that point. A lot of those artists were actually trained very traditionally and then various factors led them up to the style of work that they feel expresses what they want to say. Like Robert Motherwell who had perhaps the best and most extensive formal education of all the New York School painters, and did very abstract, surreal work, though he didn’t start that way. It’s funny: The middle-school kids get it, they connect with it. It’s the older kids who are like, “What’s this about?” PGN: I guess I’m one of the older kids! What are some of the ways you teach? FK: As the chair of the department, I try to create outside connections for the kids like doing things with the fabric workshop and the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. I’m really about using art to help them with the things going on in their lives — understanding and expressing their feelings. We deal with homophobia and hate, identity, things they’re afraid of: We do a lot of work around that. When I went back to school, I choose to study art education over therapy, but the program at Parsons was a very process-oriented method, so we got a lot of therapy mixed in. At Friends, they really allowed me to expand the program. In fact, the director of the middle school always says that I create a psychological space for children to create ... that the kids make art that allows them to come out feeling good about themselves, which makes me feel good. PGN: Have you ever had someone express something that made you concerned? FK: Yes, a few times. Sometimes I’ll look

at a kid’s painting and perhaps they’ll be situated alone in the drawing or have a monster attacking, or something that makes me want to explore it further. The good thing is that the school psychologist is right around the corner and I can refer it to him to see if it’s something to be looked into. We try to create an environment where the kids feel free to put down anything they feel. We might not always exhibit it, because of the range of ages at the school, but it’s always encouraged. And when you teach art that way, something is going to come out, a child who feels alienated or is struggling with identity, or problems at home.

third-grade teacher at the school and all the kids know us as a couple. And the head of our school loves us as a couple, which is great. I always told myself I’d never work somewhere where I’d have to be in the closet.

PGN: It must be rewarding to be able to use art to help someone. FK: Yes, I think if we had an art program that just encouraged everyone to paint flowers, we wouldn’t see that, but thankfully, we are free to do so much more.

PGN: Outside of art, what are your hobbies? FK: I’m a social geek. I love hanging in coffee shops in the Gayborhood talking to people. I love dining out and going to movies. I’m a big people person.

PGN: Do you do “A Day With(out) Art,”

PGN: I understand you run a gay Jewish group. FK: Yes, I co-founded an LGBT minyan.

the AIDS awareness program? FK: Yes, we participate in that and A Day of Silence. We’re very proactive about gay issues. [Laughs.] I teach about every LGBT artist I can think of in my class. We talk about the fact that if the AIDS virus hadn’t happened, we would still have people like Keith Haring around still creating art. They listen and are concerned about things like that. I’m probably one of the most openly gay teachers you’ll find. In fact my boyfriend, Craig Bierman, is a

PGN: When did you come out? FK: I’m 48 and I came out to a few friends in college from the art department: I was in a Jewish fraternity and was not out there. But when I got to New York working at Saks, the entire store was pretty much out [laughs], so I came out fully at that point. I told my parents and then my brothers. I guess I was about 24 at the time.

PGN: What is a minyan? FK: A minyan in Judaism refers to a quorum of 10 Jewish adults required for certain religious obligations. Outside of a synagogue, it’s a traveling prayer group. Warren Hoffman from the Gershwin Y and I felt that there was something missing in the Jewish LGBT community. There is a gay synagogue, but some people want something more casual, where you don’t have to pay dues, etc. so we started a group called Heymish that’s been going strong for about seven years. We’re very informal, no rabbi, we do a potluck dinner and do the readings ourselves, which is nice for a lot of young people who may feel intimidated in a synagogue. There’s a lot of singing and everyone is welcome!

PGN: Are there different challenges faced by Jewish members of the LGBT community? FK: I think so. I dealt with a lot of antiSemitism growing up. I remember people in college hearing that I was in the Jewish fraternity saying, “Oh, you’re in the Hebe house.” Or hearing people use phrases like “Let’s Jew him PAGE 22

down,” which was actually said by a sorority president. An interesting thing: I went with my coworker Marissa Coulson to the People of Color Conference and they put us in different affinity groups. Another Jewish person — lesbian — and I were put in a group of Caucasians and we both agreed we didn’t necessarily feel we belonged in that category. Do I have traditional white advantage? Yes to some extent, but I’ve also had to deal with prejudice on top of homophobia. Most of the other people in our group had not. I really liked going to POCC: It really got you thinking and discussing things. PGN: How did you meet Craig? FK: Well, we met during happy hour at Uncle Charlie’s in the West Village in New York City. It’s long gone now, but I saw him across the bar and thought, “That guy looks cute and sweet.” We started to talk and 20 years later we haven’t stopped talking! PGN: Was he always a teacher? FK: No, he’s a Renaissance man. When I met him he was doing video production. We lived in New York for nine years and then moved to Philly so I could work at Friends. For a while, he commuted back and forth and then an alumni job opened up at Friends Select and he took it. He liked it and now he’s there as a teacher. PGN: Something fun you’ve done

PROFILE PGN

together? FK: We took a month off and drove across the country, starting in New York City, across to Spokane, Wash., down to L.A. and back across. In each city we sought out the gay scene and it was fascinating to see how it changed from place to place, from Chicago to Oklahoma.

PGN: Since we just went through the holidays, what’s the best gift you’ve received? FK: I got a cool gift this year. Our librarian, Sandi, had my name for our gift exchange. She gave me these little miniature statues of different artists — Picasso, Warhol, Dali, etc. They were really on target for me.

PGN: Other than a Greek goddess gown, what was your biggest fashion faux pas? FK: Dressing preppy one day and punk the next. My punk outfit consisted of a skintight shirt with DayGlo record albums on the chest and I had a haircut with a tail in the back that was dyed white. What was I thinking?

PGN: So you’ve made it through 20 years and a month together in a car. What’s your secret? FK: Honesty, giving each other space and saying I love you every day. Those three words are important. [Laughs.] People always tease us, “You’ve been together 20 years. Are you sure you’re not lesbians?”

PGN: Favorite family tradition? FK: Passover. I like it because it’s not in a synagogue: It’s celebrated in the home. Everyone’s around the table, eating and reading from the Haggadah, a mysterious little book, and there’s lots of singing and talking.

PGN: What’s your favorite piece of clothing? FK: I’m a hat person. Like Bella Abzug, I love wearing hats.

PGN: Tell me about the gay/straight alliance SAGA (sexuality and gender association). Do you ever run into resistance? FK: It used to be just for the upper classes but after a while we invited the eighth grade to participate. Unlike the older kids, the eighth graders have to have parental permission to participate and, even though we’re a very progressive school, on occasion you’ll get a parent who perhaps isn’t fully aware of our mission of diversity. We’ll get that, “I don’t know if my child’s ready for that” or “We don’t necessarily believe in that.” [Laughs.] Which makes me want to say, “You don’t believe in sexuality or gender? It’s the gay/straight alliance, does that mean you don’t believe in straight people?” It’s funny, but it doesn’t happen often.

PGN: Going to random questions. Which one of Snow White’s dwarves would you be? FK: I’m a big Disney fan, so I’d really want to be Snow White! But if I had to choose, I’d say Happy. It’s my goal everyday. PGN: Something you lost that you wish you could have back? FK: I lost my sister-in-law, Arlene, my brother’s first wife, to breast cancer 10 years ago and she was very special to me. And I just lost my mother, so I’d like to have the women in my life back. PGN: When people look at me, they would never guess that I ... FK: Dressed in drag as a Greek goddess in college! [Laughs.] Or maybe they would!

PGN: Phrase that a parent used over and over? FK: I’m thinking of my dad who said, “Whatever you decide to do in life, it shouldn’t feel like work.” That really stuck with me and I feel that I have achieved that through teaching. In the glamorous world of fashion, I didn’t get that. Now, I love what I do! PGN: What’s in store for the future? FK: In addition to expanding the GSA, I really want to create a safe space for LGBTQ kids to create art. The Fleisher Art Center has a teen lounge, but I’d like to have something specifically for LGBTQ kids to teach them new ways to express themselves. Oh, and a gay men’s life drawing class! ■ To suggest a community member for “Family Portrait,” write to portraits05@aol.com.

Dance-music icon isn’t sweating pageant By Larry Nichols larry@epgn.com “A lot of people know the songs that I’ve sung — they just don’t know me,” dance music diva and singer Martha Wash told PGN. Very true. Chances are, no matter what your age, sometime in your life you have shaken your ass to a song Martha Wash has sung or, at the very least, lent her voice to by artists such as Sylvester, The Weather Girls, Luther Vandross, Black Box or C+C Music Factory, to name a few. Wash also made history in the music business when she sued C+C Music Factory for credit and royalties for the No. 1 hit “Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now),” after the group failed to list Wash as a lead vocalist on the song and instead had a more photogenic (read: thinner) singer lip-sync her parts in the music video. She won the suit and soon after it became mandatory for albums to list vocal credits. But Wash’s longtime fans know that she has always been a fixture and an icon to gay audiences for, if nothing else, her international hit, “It’s Raining Men,” as part of the Weather Girls back in the early 1980s. That’s probably going to be one of the many hits she sings when she performs at the annual Miss’d America Pageant Jan. 21 in Atlantic City. With over 30 years as a performer, Wash said the music industry today still operates like the machine she faced down in the early 1990s — putting image before talent. “I would say that it’s still that image-driven thing,” she said. “It seems like the labels are still that way. But I would have to say with the record-buying — or the downloading — public, I think they understand that talent comes in all shapes and sizes and they can make up their own mind about who they like and whose music they want to purchase and I’m happy about that. Everybody talks about Adele. She was one of the highest-selling artists of last year and I was kind of surprised at that. I’m really happy for her. But I was surprised in that Lady Gaga came in second. I thought it would have been the other way around as much exposure that she’s gotten over the last year. I’m just hoping that it gets better as far as record companies are

concerned and that they will find people with talent regardless of what they look like or what they think the public will accept.” She added that she doubts Adele, who is a British artist, would have been the critical and global success she is today if her career had started in the U.S. “How many large artists ... female ... sorry guys, but the males can get away with it easier,” Wash said. “How many large female artists are out there working? If you stop and think about it, can you count? I’m thinking her record label in the U.K., their partners in the U.S. said let’s break her here in the U.S. but I don’t think it would have happened if she was an American artist.” Wash accredits the rather shortsightedness of the major labels as the impetus for her starting her own label, Purple Rose Records, which she launched in 2004. “No record company was knocking on my door,” she said. “By that time, there were a whole MARTHA WASH lot of independent artists that were starting their own labels to keep their music out there for the public to hear. So I said to myself, Why not me? If you think about it, there are a gazillion artists in the world and only three big record labels. The numbers don’t match up. You have more artists than record labels, so you know they’re going to be picky about who they sign. Nowadays, if you don’t have a No. 1 hit off the bat, that’s your first and last record.” Since then she has released her solo albums on the label and is currently working on an album of new material, which she said expands upon the types of music for which she’s famous. “I’ve been working on my CD and I’m almost finished,” she said. “We’re going into mastering in about a month. I’m trying to go more into adult contemporary. Some of the songs on there are up-tempo but there are also ballads. I’ve always loved a good ballad but I’m kind of branching out more and more with not just straight-up dance music that everybody knows me for.” ■ The Greater Atlantic City GLBT Alliance presents the Miss’d America Pageant featuring a performance by Martha Wash and host Carson Kressley, 8 p.m. Jan. 21 at Boardwalk Hall, 2301 Boardwalk, Atlantic City, N.J.

Radical Faeries to converge on William Way By Larry Nichols larry@epgn.com The Radical Faeries of Philadelphia began a celebration of their cause and history yesterday by opening an exhibit at the William Way LGBT Community Center. The Radical Faerie movement was initiated in the late 1960s by gay-liberation activists Harry Hay and Don Kilhefner. Some gay men see it as a way to give a spiritual context to their sexuality. The local chapter’s website describes it as “queer tribal nation sharing affinity in the spiritual underpinnings of non-mainstream sexuality and heart-centered relationship.” The movement has since spread into numerous local groups and communities internationally, each along the way finding their own ways to champion the spirit. “We’re relatively new,” Radical Faerie Messapotamia Lefae said of the Philadelphia chapter. “We got started around the 1990s. Every different chapter has its own character. In New York, the Radical Faeries like to party and have a New York City lifestyle whereas in Philly, we’re very community-based. We all spend a lot of time with one another. We’re very insular and we do a lot of community actions. We have a lot of people in the nonprofit sector, so we do get involved with a lot of volunteering and stewarding the LGBT community and queer culture.” Radical Faeries have at least one or more “faerie names” used in lieu of their real names. In fact, the Radical Faeries as a group are a challenge to describe; Lefae said the exhibition reflects their mercurial and whimsical spirit. “It’s very obtuse,” Lefae said. “It’s nothing like your typical museum exhibit. It’s flexible. It functions as a lounge space. The opening is an interactive opening where we’re going to be adding, subtracting, decorating and reorganizing the space. It’s not completely finished yet because were going to allow people to participate and then modify what we already have in the space. There’s going to be a lot of sections to it that you can plug into as opposed to just look at. There’s going to be a lounge space where you can just hang out and lay on pillows. There’s going to be a stage where you can try on clothes and have a portrait taken. There’s a maypole, photography and a collage on the walls.” Lefae said the exhibit at the William Way is open to everyone, including

Radical Faerie members from all over the world, some of whom plan to come to Philadelphia this weekend for an event the Faeries dubbed the Urban Gatherette. “We’ve called faeries from around the world to come in and they’re going to be housed in different faeries’ homes and we have planned a couple meals and seminars that people can participate in,” Lefae said. “We have a talent show, a dance party and a community service project that we’re going to be doing. The opening of the exhibit is just the beginning.” People introduced to the Radical Faerie movement through the exhibition might feel inspired to join — but like the group itself, how that is accomplished and what

it ultimately means isn’t easy to determine. “It’s difficult to define what a Radical Faerie is,” Lefae said. “It’s a self-identifying group. If you go there and you identify with what the mission is and you see some of our work as activists and you want to find out more, that’s another thing. But it’s also self-selecting. So if you were to attend some faerie events and you find that it is not for you or you don’t fit, you can just step away. We don’t expect anyone to understand or come to conclusions. It’s just something you can participate in and experience, like a story.” The Radical Faeries of Philadelphia present “Yoo Hoo! The Culture and History of the Radical Faeries of Philadelphia,” through March 25 at the William Way LGBT Community Center, 1315 Spruce St. For more information, visit phillyfaeries.net or www.waygay.org. ■

Broad St. (in the space formerly known as the Asian-fusion restaurant Chew Man Chu), is the perfect storm for dining on the Avenue of the Arts: the skills of owner and executive chef Kevin Sbraga, winner of season seven of the popular TV show, as well as a prime location and elegant, modern styling. It also doesn’t hurt that the restaurant offers an impressive four-course menu for $45. Before we could indulge in the menu, we had to navigate some of the cocktails. Being suckers for punch, we tried the punch drunk love ($11), a convergence of premium rum, amaretto and grapefruit juice. We also tried the Sbraga punch ($10) with Absolute mandarin, Amaretto, orange and pineapple juices. Both were adult-beverage nirvana, with the punch-drunk love having more Southern charm compared to the tropical influences of the Sbraga punch. Our first course got off to an excellent start with the foie gras soup, a smooth, rich and flavorful experience punctuated by the crunchy kick of rose-petal relish. The blue crab with pineapple and kohlrabi was delightful as well, offering a pleasant combination of familiar flavors. The second course also had a wonderful sense of flair. The black-truffle risotto was classic — creamy, hearty and stocked generously with squash and hen of the woods. The clams were a pleasant treasure hunt, served up perfectly steamed in their shells, swimming in bacon and sea-urchin butter. The third course was a knockout as the dishes we tried were familiar concepts elevated to upscale fare. The buffalo chicken was pure joy on a plate, with pieces of fried-chicken perfection accompanied by apple, blue cheese and a spicy buffalo sauce. Now, we’ve seen more than a few chefs do their gourmet reinterpretation of a cheesesteak in our time and Sbraga’s ranks as one of the best, with tender slices of short rib surrounded by a Parmesan mousse, onion straws and a savory helping of bread pudding, the latter of which went a long way to making the dish a desirable tangent to Philly’s signature sandwich. Damn our New Year’s resolution: We skipped the dessert course. Yeah, we’re kicking ourselves, but we’re destined to backslide sooner or later. Sbraga is a welcome addition to Philly’s restaurant scene, and it’s obvious Chef Sbraga is putting his “Top Chef” prize money to good use. ■

SHERIFF'S SALE Properties to be sold by Jewell Williams, Sheriff on Tuesday, February 7, 2012 at First District Plaza, 3801 Market Street, at 10:00 AM. (EST) Conditions of Sheriff’s Sale for JUDICIAL/FORECLOSURE SALE Ten percent of the highest bid for each property auctioned off shall be deposited in cash, certified check, attorney’s check or money order with the Sheriff by each bidder when his bid is registered, provided that in no case shall less than Six Hundred Dollars ($600.00) be deposited, otherwise upon failure or refusal to make such deposit, the bidder shall lose all benefit of his bid and the property may be immediately offered again and sold unless a second bid has been registered, then, the second highest bidder will take the property at the highest bid price. Additionally, where there is active bidding, the highest bidder, and the second highest bidder, if any must post the entire amount of the cost of the distribution policy for the property at the time of sale by cash, certified check, attorney’s check or money order with the Sheriff. The balance of the purchase money must be deposited in cash, certified check, attorney’s check or money order together with a Deed poll for execution by the highest bidder to the Sheriff at his office within 30 days from the time of the sale. An extension of time for an additional 30 days may be granted at the discretion of the Sheriff upon receipt of written request from the buyer requesting the same, except when a second bidder has been duly registered. Also, if the first bidder does not complete settlement with the Sheriff within the thirty (30) day time limit and a second bid was registered at the sale, the second bidder shall be granted the same thirty (30) day time limit to make settlement with the Sheriff on his second bid. Thereafter, the Sheriff shall be at liberty to return the writ to court. A second bid must be registered on any property immediately after it is sold. The second bidder must present the same amount of deposit that the highest bidder delivers to the Sheriff at the sale. An extension of time under no circumstances will be granted or honored by the Sheriff whenever a second bid is registered on a property at the sale. The first bid or opening bid on each property shall be a sum sufficient to pay all Sheriff’s costs including advertising, all taxes, water rents and municipal claims due to the City of Philadelphia. If there is no other bid price above the opening bid price, the property shall be sold by the auctioneer to the attorney on the writ at that price. The deposit by any bidder who fails to comply with the above conditions of sale shall be forfeited and the funds will be applied to the Sheriff’s cost, then to any municipal claims that the City of Philadelphia has on the property. Finally, if a balance still remains, a Sheriff’s Distribution Policy will be ordered and the money will be distributed accordingly. No personal checks, drafts or promises to pay will be accepted in lieu of cash, certified checks, attorney’s checks or money orders made payable to the Sheriff of Philadelphia County. The Sheriff reserves the right to grant further extensions of time to settle and further reserves the right to refuse bids from bidders who have failed to enter deposits on their bids, failed to make settlement, or make fraudulent bids, or any other behavior which causes disruption of the

SHERIFF'S SALE Sheriff Sale. Said bidders shall be so refused for the sale in which said behavior occurred and for said further period of time as the Sheriff in his discretion shall determine. The Sheriff will not acknowledge a deed poll to any individual or entity using an unregistered fictitious name and may, at his discretion, require proof of identity of the purchaser or the registration of fictitious names. The bid of an unregistered fictitious name shall be forfeited as if the bidder failed to meet the terms of sale. All bidders are advised to remain at the sale until after the last property is sold. The Sheriff reserves the right to re-sell any property at any time before the end of the sale, upon the successful bidders’ failure to tender the required deposit. The Sheriff reserves the right to postpone or stay the sale of any property in which the attorney on the writ has not appeared and is not present at the sale. Prospective purchasers are directed to the Web site of the Philadelphia Bureau of Revision of Taxes, (BRT) “brtweb.phila.gov” for a fuller description of the properties listed. Properties can be looked up by the BRT number – which should be cross checked with the address.

PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING THE NATURE, LOCATION, CONDITION AND BOUNDARIES OF THE PROPERTIES THEY SEEK TO PURCHASE. The “BRT #” refers to a unique number assigned by the City Bureau of Revision of Taxes to each property in the City for the purpose of assessing it for taxes. This number can be used to obtain descriptive information about the property from the BRT website.
