Slogan:A Voice Heard, Is a Voice Counted, Remaining Silent Allows Voices of Others to Determine Your Destiny. Speak Out, Be Heard, Determine Your Own Destiny
I've been with my soul mate and love of my life for 29 years. Twenty of them have been as a proud GLBT Rights Activist. I'll continue to play an active role in our struggle for full equality of benefits, protections and rights for all GLBT citizens. I will never, "Go Quietly Into That Good Night" nor "Allow My Voice To Be Stifled." I'll fight for full GLBT equality, until we have achieved this or I take my last breath. If I have anything to do with this, it will happen in my lifetime.
Hello, my name is R. Zeke Fread AKA Zeke or Zekester
MY VITALS
Occupation: Director Pride Tampa Bay, A Grassroots Non-Profit GLBT Rights & Anti-Hate Activist Organization,
Associations/Affiliations/Clubs: Day Of Decision FL Action Coordinator/Organizer, Join The Impact Tampa Bay, Impact Florida, OUT, Equality Florida, Tampa Bay Family Pride, Securing Our Children's Rights, GLBT Democratic Caucus
Hometown: W. Liberty, West Virgina
Heroes: Rosa Parks,

Current Location: Tampa, Florida
Guilty Pleasure: While Holding Protests/Action, When The News Media Shows Up. I Enjoy Quietly Pressing The Buttons of the Religious Right Fundies Counter-Protesting Our Events. This Way They Loose It and Act Look Like Fools. When News Coverage Airs, Everyone Gets To Watch Them Acting Like The Crazy Screaming Idiots They Are.
The best word to describe me is: A Die-Hard Grassroots GLBT Activist
Favorite historical movement:Stonewall Riots, the Birth of the GLBT Civil Rights Movement
My inspiration: We must join our efforts and voices together as one. To send a message loud and clear, "That We Will Not Go Quietly Into That Good Night." That is until all GLBT citizens receive the same equal benefits, protections and rights that all Americans receive by law. Equal protection under the law, means every citizen, not just some.
