It all started in someone’s backyard 13 years ago over the Fourth of July weekend and has now grown into one of the largest drag shows in the Southeast, organizers say.
The 13th annual East Point Possums Show kicks off Atlanta Pride’s Stonewall Week on June 19 in East Point with, well, a sashay — perhaps a clumsy sashay at that.
Rick Westbrook, a.k.a. Shenitta Lott, is one of the founding members of the show along with his partner, John Jeffrey (a.k.a. Prissy Cilla), Chuck Jenkins (a.k.a. Rococo Baroque) and Chesley Thurman (a.k.a. Dina Daintymouth). For Westbrook, the show’s popularity is a testament to people’s desire to come together for a good time and for a good cause.
This year, all money made at the Possums show will be donated to the Atlanta Pride Committee and the Atlanta Lesbian Health Initiative.
For the next three months, six diverse and accomplished young ladies will work to better themselves and their communities, before making their formal debut into society at the Atlanta Cotillion.
The catch? These young debutantes are actually men, raising money in a unique competition to fund the fight against HIV.
One of the summer’s largest parties has a new look as the Premiere Party goes white to raise funds for CHRIS Kids, a gay-inclusive child welfare agency. Proceeds from the June 12 party are earmarked for programs that provide housing and other support to LGBT youth.
On Monday, May 17th at 5pm team members from the Shirt Off My Back Campaign (SOMB) will join together with local community members at 10th St. and Piedmont Ave. to march for International Day Against Homophobia. We're asking supporters of SOMB to "Take the Shirt Off Your Back to STOP Homophobia." I know what you're thinking, what good is taking off a few shirts going to do in the epic battle against discrimination? That's a good question and I've got a great answer.
For Debra Snell, riding in the AIDS Vaccine 200 isn’t just a fundraiser for a good cause, but a way to reclaim a level of freedom and mobility she almost lost.
This year’s Atlanta Human Rights Campaign Dinner drew national star power, from gay reality TV mogul Andy Cohen to national HRC President Joe Solmonese and Providence, R.I., Mayor David Cicilline, a candidate for Congress.
