Happy Summer from GLOW to You!

It's hard to believe a whole school year has gone by. I'd like to wish a giant good luck to all Lawrence's graduates of 2011! In honor of summer, here's a list of fun queer-y things to do with any newfound free time:

  • Attend (or march in!) a Pride parade
  • Read! Some marvelous alphabet soup fiction I'm currently into is The Counterfeiters by Andre Gide. You can find other recommendations here
  • Watch the latest in big-name "It Gets Better" videos from the White House staff and the Red Sox (who just announced theirs is coming soon as a response to a 12-year-old boy's request)
  • See films (Netflix Instant Watch has a great "Gay and Lesbian" section- don't be discouraged by the name if you're not LG, because they also have a plethora of bisexual/trans*/intersex/questioning/polyamorous/asexual titles too)
  • Listen to queer-identified musicians!
  • Keep up with potential candidates for the 2012 elections and continue following your state government as well as the Obama administration's actions regarding LGBTQIA rights (trans* rights in particular are gaining momentum now)
