On April 25, 1993, I stood on the main stage, fatigued beyond words and in utter amazement at the ocean of people spread across the D.C. Mall for the March on Washington for Lesbian, Gay, and Bi Equal Rights and Liberation.

The D.C. police estimated that there were between 800,000 and more than 1 million attendees. (The park police's estimate was so ridiculously off that they became the butt of editorial cartoons and shortly thereafter stopped issuing any official estimates for events.)

The Gay, Lesbian And Straight Education Network (GLSEN) has hit back at conservative criticism of their annual "Day of Silence," which was established in support of bullied lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youth.

(Editor’s note: Human-rights activist Peter Tatchell, director of the Peter Tatchell Foundation, wrote this for Huffington Post Politics, United Kingdom. He submitted the blog for publication by SDGLN.)

A gay Oregon man was allegedly struck in the head with what's been described as wrench or other "bolt-cutting tool" by a passerby angered by the sight of his dog's dyed-pink fur.

The Oregonian reports that 26-year-old David Beltier was walking his poodle alongside boyfriend Jeremy Mark when the suspect, who has since been identified as 22-year-old George Mason, Jr. pulled over in an SUV.
