Equality Florida's Stratton Pollitzer on The Two-Year Remembrance of Pulse
Powerful words from our Deputy Director Stratton Pollitzer on the two-year remembrance of Pulse:
Remember Pulse: #HonorThemWithAction
On June 12, 2016, the Orlando community was rocked by the massacre that claimed the lives of 49 people. The horror unfolded in the middle of Pride month on Latin Night at Pulse Nightclub, a popular gathering place for young LGBTQ people of color.
Today, as we remember those taken from us, we also renew our calls to #HonorThemWithAction - and I challenge you to join us.
Equality Florida Mourns The Loss of Connie Kurtz - A Dear Friend and Fierce LGBTQ Activist
We are deeply saddened by the passing on Sunday, May 27th of a dear friend of Equality Florida, mentor, cheerleader, pioneer, unabashed and fierce social justice warrior Connie Kurtz.
As a fierce advocate for social justice and LGBT rights, Connie and her beloved Ruthie had many notable triumphs. In the early 1980’s, they took on closed minds on the Phil Donahue Show, fighting for (and winning) a Domestic Partnership Registry that would afford equal rights for same-sex couples.
