US Preacher Sued For Incitement

The US Preacher Scott Lively Sued For Incitement by the group Sexual Minorities Uganda.

“Lively is the author of, among other fruity titles, a book called ‘The Pink Swastika’ (1996). This argues that a certain amount of Nazis were gay, and that the gay man is a natural fascist who would take away your rights if you give him half a chance, that sort of thing..”

700 miles for Diversity Role Models

The organisation Diversity Role Models tackles homophobic bullying in schools. Andrew Makin is cycling 700 miles to raise money to support this essential charity.

“Not only does Diversity Role Models help the young, it is changing the standing of all LGBT people for the better. By educating schoolchildren, and challenging the remnants of homophobia in popular culture, it breaks down barriers by showing LGBT individuals as real people.”

Born this way video goes viral

Jessica Romani posted a video to YouTube of her father showing her brother Dylan his “born this way” tattoo. Wipeout Homophobia on Facebook posted the link and it went viral.

“This video humanises what is all too often dehumanised by bigotry. It shows a father expressing his love for his son; it shows what the ‘issues’ mean to real people.”

Vote for Equal Marriage Rights

Sign the Coalition for Equal Marriage Petition

There is no reason not to sign this petition if you stand for LGBT equality. It is not just about marriage, after all.

“The marriage debate has generated much hot air, especially from those who oppose it, but the issue is a simple one. It is about equal rights. You either believe in equality, or you do not.”

About Polari Magazine

Polari Magazine is an LGBT arts and culture magazine that explores the subculture by looking at what is important to the people who are in it. It’s about the lives we lead, not the lifestyles we’re supposed to lead.

Its content is informed & insightful, and features a diverse range of writers from every section of the community. Its intent is to help LGBT readers learn about their own heritage and to sustain a link between the present and the past.

Polari is designed to nurture the idea of community, whether that be social and political, or artistic and creative. It is your magazine, whether you want to read it, or whether you want to get involved in it, if you're gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, or queer.

Polari Magazine is all these: it's a gay online magazine; it's a gay and lesbian online magazine; it's an LGBT arts and culture magazine. Ultimately, it is a queer magazine.
