Tonight on BloomingOUT we are featuring two stories. The first one involves a florist from Avon, Indiana who refused to sell flowers to a gay couple for their wedding. The second story happened in Tennessee to a single gay father of two young sons. The families’ vehicle sustained heavy damage that included derogatory words scratched into the car.
We will also be speaking with Jeffrey M. Roth who is the new Vice President and Chief Development Officer at The Damien Center. The Damien Center is Indiana’s largest HIV care and prevention agency.
Featured music comes from Speed Ortiz’s 2018 album Twerp Verse.
Events:
Let me be your trans best friend, come, drop in to room 1C at the Monroe County Main Library, ask me ANY question or ton of questions you have about transgender and intersex people. I will answer to the best of my abilities given my 43 years as an intersex trans female and 21 years as an out trans woman. I’d like to especially encourage healthcare workers, human resource people, parents, educators, law enforcement and other first responders, and people of any faith tradition to come by and lay it all out there. I have heard just about everything, and will not be offended or shocked. My goal is to be able to dispell myths and fill in the blanks with honest, direct information and a bit of humour.
Share this with anyone you think may be interested. Come by any time between 6 and 9. It’s a drop-in session, not a lecture. I’ll have some cookies to share, too.
