Black History in May


A Virginia resident quietly made history, becoming the state’s first openly LGBT African-American elected to public office. In his first bid for elected office, Lawrence Webb won a seat on the Falls Church City Council by a margin of 39 votes. He joins two other candidates on the City Council: Nader Baroukh and Robin S. Gardner.’

This is great news, finally something different than Detroit Mayor of Inanity, Kwame Kilpatrick. I hope he can make changes, while presenting powerful and positive images of gay people.

Good Luck, Larry!
