Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger Signed two Gay Rights Bills

Late last night, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed two gay rights bills that honors Harvey Milk and recognizes Gay marriages performed in other states.

Although the bill will not recognize them as married, it will give gay couples the same legal protections provided by civil unions or domestic partnerships out-of-state.

Still a step in the right direction.

However, he vetoed a couple of bills that would have given protections to LGBT prisoners and transgender people new birth certificates.

Possible Movie ideas about other Impressive LGBT folks

I saw Milk yesterday and was moved by his story, Penn's performance and what was accomplished during that time.

Later, I realized there are more LGBT folks who should have their stories told as well. So, I'm going to list a few LGBT movers and shakers that deserve a LOGO movie at least.

Sylvester
Before RuPaul, there was Sylvester. The True Queen of Disco made a huge statement during his reign on the radio. His voice was powerful, his style was unique and his story is far from ordinary.



















Audre Lorde
Activist, writer, teacher and leader. Her contributions to our movement is extraordinary.















Gay Liberation Front
This is was the first group to form after the Stonewall riots. This group was passionate about militarism, racism, and sexism. Also they had some interesting views too.




















Rasclyffe Hall
She lived her life as an out lesbian and wrote The Well of Loneliness, known as the most important lesbian novel ever published.




















Bayard Rustin
His work with Dr. King has been the best kept secret for years. His story should be told for all to know his great achievements.




















This is just a short list, but I would love if we had more movies that reflect our contributions to history and to social change.
