is the reason we don't have NYC organizer/location for the DOMA protest on jan.10 because it's just not posted yet or because no one's signed up to organize?
if we don't have an organizer, what's the process of finding/becoming one? let's make sure the glbt community is seen and heard from the very start of the new year! xx. k |

Last Sunday, Jose Sucuzhanay, and Ecuadorian immigrant and resident of Bushwick, Brooklyn, was brutally beaten while walking home from a bar with his brother, Romel. The two were walking with their arms linked and leaning close together. They were attacked by four men yelling anti-gay and anti-Hispanic epithets. The men proceeded to beat Jose with a bottle and a baseball bat. Mr. Sucuzhanay, who is on life support at Elmhurst hospital, is a respected business owner and father of two.
The New York City Anti-Violence Project has organized a vigil this Sunday, December 14th at 2:00 PM. The vigil will begin at the corner of Myrtle Ave and Grove Street in Brooklyn, followed by a march to the corner of Bushwick Ave. and Kossuth Place, where the assault occurred. Please join community organizers from organizations from across New York City, including Make the Road NY, New York City Anti-Violence Project, Audre Lorde Project, US Dept of Justice Community Relations, Generation Q, Greater New York Labor-Religion Coalition, GLOBE, Labor Council for Latin American Advancement, NAACP, The National Congress for Puerto Rican Rights, NYCLU, New York Immigration Coalition, Sunset Park Alliance of Neighbors, We are all Brooklyn, YKASEC, and elected officials, including City Council Speaker Christine Quinn. This horrible attack underscores the reality that HOMOPHOBIA HURTS EVERYONE, not just LGBT people. What does it say about our society when two brothers cannot show basic affection without being attacked as gay and brutally beaten? We in the LGBT community need to show solidarity with Latinos, African Americans, and everyone else who is vicitimized by the pathology of homophobia.
