July 2014 LGBT Events in Ft. Lauderdale

On this Blog, I will post a highlight of some of the LGBT non-profit and political events that are going on in Ft. Lauderdale each month, so folks who want to attend can put them on their Calendars. Ongoing – “Days Without Sunshine: Anita Bryant’s Anti-Gay Crusade” – Stonewall National Museum, Wilton Manors Gallery , 2157 Wilton Drive, Wilton Manors, FL. In 1977 the Metropolitan Dade County Commission added 'sexual preference' to its existing ordinance banning discrimination in employment, housing and public services. Anita Bryant was instrumental in repealing the gay-rights referendum. It's taken decades of effort, but LGBT people have made tremendous gains in equality, including more states allowing same-sex marriage. But we still face discrimination and bullying on many levels. The exhibit Days without Sunshine , in reminding us how far we've come, lets us know there's still more to do. www.Stonewall-Museum.org Wednesday, July 2nd  – Marriage Eq
