Day of Silence

Our last event of the year is Breaking the Silence: A Forum on Gendered Hate Crimes, this Wednesday, April 26th @ 7PM in Friedman Lounge in Wohl Center on the South 40.

The Day of Silence is a day in which people of all sexual orientations and gender identities who support GLBTQIA rights take a vow of silence to recognize and protest the silence that LGBTQIA people face each day. Every year we hope that the silence, discrimination, and violence directed at GLBTQIA people will end, however it is not just 'gay' people who suffer from violence or harassment. At this event we hope to raise awareness of the roles that gender and gender norms play in dictating all people's actions, regardless of their gender identity or sexual orientation. A panel of experts will address pertinent topics that relate to this large issue, including some of the following questions:

What do you do if you see or are a survivor of a hate crime? What is a hate crime? How can you be there for a friend? What can we do to reduce the number of future hate crimes? This event will take place on April 26th on the National Day of Silence, at 7PM where we will "Break the Silence" in Friedman Lounge in Wohl Center. FREE PIZZA WILL BE PROVIDED!

We will be tabling in Mallinckrodt on Wednesday from 11-1PM; drop by to pick up a rainbow ribbon!Co-Sponsored by: Pride Alliance, Uncle Joe's Peer Counseling and Resource Center, Safe Zones, Keshet, 1 in 4, Womyn's Resource Center, and the Social Justice Center.

Pride Week

I hope everyone had a great time at Gayla on Saturday--we had tons of people come and it seemed like everyone had an amazing time (the mess you guys left afterward sure hinted at that!). Hopefully it will be a WashU tradition from now on. In case you didn't know, the Gayla was the kickoff for our annual Pride Week. Here's what we have going on:

1) "Discovery" w/ Professor Leslie Brown: Tuesday, April 18th @ 8PM in Women's Building 300. Join Leslie Brown, WashU professor of history and African-American studies, for a discussion about race and GLBT issues. Professor Brown has spoken at Pride events in the past, and is an excellent lecturer and scholar. Her presentation on Tuesday will be a fitting follow-up to the joint ABS-Safe Zones-Pride Alliance meeting we had earlier this month. I hope you can join us!

2) Open Ally Workshop hosted by Safe Zones: Wednesday, April 19th from 7-10PM in Women's Building 300. Be educated on GLBT issues and earn one of those nifty placards upon graduation from the workshop. Even if you identify as G, L, B, or T, the workshop will be a mind-opening experience.

3) Brokeback Mountain Screening with CS40: Thursday, April 20th @ 8PM in Ursa's. Stop studying and relax with friends while watching this amazing, critically-aclaimed film. Free food provided!

4) glbtqiaBBQ: Friday, April 21st from 11-1PM in Bowles Plaza: Eat BBQ. Be proud. Converse with prospective students about life at WashU. Best of all: all the food is FREE! We'll also be giving out free Frisbees, so there is no reason not to come--bring friends! Co-sponsored with the Office of Admissions.

Tranny Roadshow

This Wednesday, April 12th, at 8PM in Ursa's, Pride Alliance, CS40, the Social Justice Center, and the Performing Arts Department are hosting the Tranny Roadshow. This intrepid band of performance artists, each self-identified as transgender, tours the country performing at coffee houses, colleges, and theaters. We'll have FREE FOOD, and it will be tons of fun. Relax, avoid end-of-the-year-work, and come enjoy these great performances. From their own website, www.trannyroadshow.org:

"In addition to humorists, rock bands, poets, and others, a visual art display will accompany the show. As performers, our goals do include challenging people and making them think, but our most important goals are to entertain them, make them laugh, and make them dance. We recognize that our trans identities are singular facets of who we are, and one of the aims of the Tranny Roadshow is to present transpeople as we are - whole, multi-faceted people. In the show, we present a wide spectrum of gender identities, a brilliant array of living art, and the ties that bind these identities to our artwork and to the world"

Be sure to come! Here are a few more points of interest:
  1. Earlier today everyone that goes to WashU should have received an e-mail from the director of the GLBTQIA Task force. The survey mentioned in it is very important for assessing the GLBTQIA climate on campus, and they want as many people as possible to fill it out, no matter how you identify. If you have time, please try to complete the survey. It only takes about 10 minutes. There's even a prize drawn randomly from those that fill it out!
  2. "Gayla 2006: Cirque du So-Gay!" is April 15th at 9PM in McMillan Cafe and Courtyard. Buy tickets for $8 all week in Mallinckrodt from 11-2:30PM and in Wohl on the evenings of April 12th and 13th. We'll be in front of Olin Library, too, one day of the week. Be sure to stop by and get a ticket! The giant circus tent, huge dance floor, and free food and refreshments ought to be enough motivation to get you dressed up for this sure-to-be-amazing semi-formal. Tell your friends to come! Direct any questions to pridewu@gmail.com
  3. Pride Week 2006 is from April 15th-21st. More details in next week's update.
  4. The National Day of Silence is April 26th. That evening we will be hosting a "Breaking the Silence" forum on hate crimes. More details to come.

Pride/ABS Event and "Gayla 2006: Cirque du So-Gay!"

Three items on the menu in the next few weeks:

  1. On Tuesday, April 4th at 7PM in the Mudd Multipurpose Room on the South 40 we will be hosting a meeting in conjunction with the Association of Black Students (ABS) and Safe Zones about GLBT issues as they pertain to race and ethnicity. The focus of the event will be based on the "Stars" simulation featured in the Safe Zones trainings. The conversation will be thought-provoking and is sorely needed on the WashU campus, so I hope a lot of you can make it.
  2. Tranny Road Show, April 15th, 8PM, Ursa's.
  3. Gayla 2006: Cirque du So-Gay! will be on Saturday, April 15th, from 9PM until midnight in McMillan Cafe and Courtyard on the hilltop campus. Help kick off Pride Week 2006 with a bang! All of McMillan Cafe will be turned into a huge dance floor with non-stop music, and the courtyard will have a big circus tent with FREE refreshments inside. Tickets will be $8 and are going to go on sale starting Monday, April 10th at tables in Mallinckrodt from 11-1PM. You also might find us outside of Olin Library one day selling tickets, and--trust me--we'll be hard to miss. If you want to help out with set-up that day, or if you have any questions, just respond to this e-mail. I hope to see you there!
  4. Pride Week 2006 will be from April 15 to April 21. Specific events are still in the planning stage, and we are taking suggestions, if you have any. The culminating event will be the glbtqiaBBQ on April 21st from 11-1PM in Bowles Plaza .

Bi The Way

Welcome back!

I hope spring break was relaxing and fun for everyone. We only have six weeks of school left, but we still have tons of things planned, including our Pride Week (more details in next week's e-mail). Here are a few points of interest:
  1. Join Pride Alliance on Wednesday, March 22nd @ 8 pm in Women's Building 300 for Bi The Way, a discussion on bisexuality and biphobia in the gay and straight communities.

  2. The 2nd Annual Gayla Semi-Formal will be Saturday, April 15th @ 9PM in McMillan Cafe. We were forced to change the date due to an unfortunate scheduling mishap, and we hope everyone interested can still make it. Tickets will be on sale all week before the event. Many more details will emerge within the next few weeks, so keep an eye out!
  3. Office hours have changed slightly. Here is the revised list:
    Monday: 12:00 - 5:00PM

Pre-Spring Break Update

First, a HUGE thanks to everyone that helped plan the protest on Saturday--it turned out really well, and I think we showed the community that WashU is active and willing to put effort into things outside our often-cited bubble. It was amazing to see all of you allies and newcomers attend the protest; I hope you come to more events in coming semesters, too. Check out the two articles in Student Life for pictures and details: Protest at 'ex-gay' conference brings out students, community - News and Love Needs No Cure: A peaceful protest - News. Pride is taking a brief hiatus for the next few weeks, but we will be back in full force the week following spring break. In the meantime, here are a few items that might be of interest to you:

1.) This Saturday, March 4th at 2:30 pm at Hillel (across the street from the architecture school, which is near Brookings), Keshet, the GLBTQ Jewish group, is bringing transgender, queer, and Jewish performance artist and playwright S. Bear Bergman in to perform "Clearly Marked", a play about overlapping identities and blurring labels. Following the show, there will be a Q&A discussion with Bear. Admission is FREE! If you missed "Clearly Marked" when it came to St. Louis last school year, here's another chance for you to catch it. Don't miss it! You can learn more about the show "Clearly Marked" here: http://www.sbearbergman.com/theater/clearlymarked.html

2.) Office hours have begun! Stop by Women's Building 300 during the day to chat with exec members, hang out, do homework, or borrow items from our qLibrary. We hope to have a complete online list of all of our library items in the near future. Office hours are as follows:

  • Monday: 12:00 - 5:00PM
  • Tuesday: 2:30 - 3:30PM
  • Wednesday: 11:00 - 1:00PM; 2:00 - 5:00PM
  • Thursday: 2:30 - 3:30PM
  • Friday: 12:00 - 1:00PM

3.) If you think we have been doing a good job this semester, nominate us (or any other fine organization on campus, for that matter) for OSA's Excellence in Leadership Awards! Nomination forms can be found here: http://osa.wustl.edu/leadership/awards/. Not that I'm begging, or anything....

    Ex-Gay Protest and Teach-In: "Love Needs No Cure"

    Pride Alliance, Safe Zones, and Keshet, as part of a huge, city-wide effort, plan to hold a peaceful demonstration outside of the ex-gay Love Won Out (www.lovewonout.com) conference this Saturday. Our purpose is to offer a message of truth, love, and acceptance for LGBT families and those struggling with their sexual orientation. We will have placards, posters, ribbons, armbands, and resource info available on site. Transportation to the church site will be provided on February 25th at the South 40 clocktower at two separate times: 6:15 AM and 3:45PM. The early shift is for the arrival of the conference attendees and will be car-pool only (so if you have a car and want to drive, please respond to this e-mail). The later shift will cover the end of the conference as attendees leave, and we will provide buses. The event is officially over at 5:30PM, so expect to be back no later than 6:30PM. Prior to the departure of the second shift we will be holding a Teach-in in Ursa's Fireside at 3:00PM. The Teach-in will feature guest speakers and a panel discussion about the harmful effects of the ex-gay movement. I Sincerely hope that you will join us (and the hundreds of St. Louis citizens that have been planning this event) for the event on Saturday. If you have any questions, please feel free e-mail pridewu@gmail.com or drop by Women's Building 300 during office hours.

    Ex-Gays in St. Louis

    On Saturday, February 25th Exodus International is holding a conference in St. Louis at the First Evangelical Free Church (perhaps you have seen the huge billboards on I-64 and 70?). Exodus promotes the "curing" and treatment of homosexuality as a mental illness, which all national psychiatric and medical organizations (and most people who have ever known any GLB people) consider complete BS. Pride Alliance, Keshet, and Safe Zones are hosting a meeting on Thursday, February 16th @ 8:30PM in Women's Building 300 (that's this Thursday!) to discuss a possible protest. We encourage you to forward this e-mail to any group or person that might be interested. If you really want to get your blood boiling, check out the Exodus website, or the website for the sickeningly named Love Won Out conference. I hope to see you at the meeting.

    Note: the open exec meeting scheduled for this Thursday has been cancelled due to this event.

    Latexmania

    This Wednesday Pride Alliance and S.H.A.C. are hosting a Safer Sex event as part of Sex Week 2006. Individuals from the St. Louis Guardian Project (http://www.guardianproject.org/ ) and Project ARK (http://projectark.wustl.edu/) will be giving a presentation on safer sex in the GLB community (with a focus on male-male sex) that includes a rousing game of Safer Sex Jeopardy (could you ask for anything more?). We will have lots of free condoms and accessories available, as well as discreet, confidential HIV tests immediately after the event. The meeting well be on Wednesday, February 15th at 8PM in Women's Building 300. Be sure to come!

    Other Items of Interest:
    1) The Social Justice Center is holding an event on Monday, February 13th from 7-9pm in Ursa's Fireside, entitled "Tokenism and 'Diversity': The Easy Way Out." Professor Shawn Shimpach will be facilitating a discussion. There will also be free food representing different groups of people, in a tokenistic fashion. Prof. Shimpach taught the course "Freshman Seminar: Race and Ethnicity on American Television" and he will be using his expertise and material from this course to convey tokenism in the media. The discussion will touch on the larger issue of tokenism in hiring, recruiting, political appointment, public relations campaigns, etc.

    2) The next Gayla Committee Meeting is Monday, February 20th at 9PM in the lower level seminar room of Eliot House on the South 40. We are still hammering out a lot of important details, and we could use all the help we can get!

    3) Open Exec Meetings are starting this week! Stop by our exec meetings at 8:15PM every Thursday in the lower level seminar room of Eliot House on the South 40 to offer ideas of your own and take part in the decision-making process. We hope to see some new faces this semester!

    Gays on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown

    Okay. I should really stop it with the crazy titles, but they are just so much fun (I spared you last week, though--our wily treasurer really wanted to call the event "Gaym Night"). The full title of the event we have planned this week is "Gays on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown: Mental Health Issues and the GLB Community". Dr. Alan Glass, Director of Student Health and Counseling Services, will host this discussion on Tuesday, February 7th at 8PM in the NEW Student Health and Counseling Center Center on the South 40. Don't go to the old one next to Malinckrodt! The new facility is located in the basement of Forsyth House, which is accessible from Shepley Drive. Forsyth House is the very first dorm on the left when entering the 40 via Shepley Drive. Once you enter the basement it will not be hard to find us in the classroom located right off of the main lobby. Issues of mental health are rarely discussed in the specific context of gay, lesbian, and bisexual college students, so we hope that the dialogue can raise awareness about these topics and offer WashU students a valuable resource. We have worked with Dr. Glass many times in the past, and his presentations are always interactive and highly informative. If you have any questions about this event or Pride Alliance in general, please e-mail us at this address. I hope to see you on Tuesday!

    Fun With Pride Alliance!

    Welcome back!

    I hope everyone had a relaxing break doing absolutely nothing (other than eating and sleeping). I certainly did. Alas, the school year has begun and we must become un-lazy and attend all Pride Alliance events for the entire semester. I'm not kidding. Here's what's coming up:

    1) Gayla Committee Meeting: Wednesday, January 25th at 7:30PM in Women's Building 300. We have divided into sub-committees and are working on setting our wonderfully gay theme (which is top secret) into motion. The tentative date for this GLBTQIA "Formal" is April 1st, so mark your calenders.

    2) Activities Fair: Thursday, January 26th from 4-6PM in the Gargoyle. We are giving away skittles by the bucket load, so at least drop by to rot your teeth (and maybe check out some of our plans for the year and contribute your own ideas).

    3) Game Night: Tuesday, January 31st at 8PM in Women's Building 300. Join your fellow GLBTQIA-ers for an evening of, well, GLBTQIA-themed games and leftover skittles. What joy! Bring a friend and we will throw in an extra bag of candy. I swear it will be fun.

    Those are the most immediate events we have planned. An event focusing on Mental Health hosted by Student Health and Counseling will be coming up soon. Also--just in time for a Valentine's Day tryst!--a safer sex night is in the works for the week after. Once we have the kinks in our own schedules worked out, we will publish a list of office hours so that you all can visit us during the school day.

    World AIDS Week Speaker on Friday

    Several Student Groups at WashU, including Pride Alliance, have contributed to bringing in Joel Goldman to speak to cap off World AIDS Week. The event will be on Friday, December 2nd at 5PM in LabSci 300 . Joel is currently living with HIV because he mixed sex with alcohol following his graduation from college. His program is part alcohol awareness, part sexual health. Joel has spoken to over a million students since 1993, earning top national honors from the Association of Fraternity Advisers and the North American Interfraternity Conference. In October 1998, he received the Ryan White Foundation's top national award for serving to the nations youth. The program Joel presents is interactive, and he uses humor and personal stories to get his message across. We hope all of you can make it!

    Transgender Awareness Week

    Transgender Awareness Week is next week, Nov. 14-18. We will be tabling Monday through Friday from 11AM to 1PM, so drop by if you need more information about the events, want a button or two, or want to help out. Here is what we have planned:

    Transgender Panel Discussion: Tuesday, Nov. 15th @ 8PM in Lambert Lounge. Join Pride Alliance, Dr. Alan Glass (director of Student Health and Counseling Services), and several guests from the St. Louis community for a panel discussion on transgender issues. Become educated on transgender topics and listen to stories from people in the community. There will be a question and answer session following the discussion. Lambert Lounge is located in Malinckrodt Center on main campus. It is upstairs, past the bank (there will be signs).

    Transgender Day of Remembrance Candlelight Vigil: Wednesday, Nov. 16th @ 8PM at the South 40 Clocktower. Mourn the deaths of the dozens of transgender people murdered this past year. Hear the stories of people who were killed and help raise awareness violence against those with differing gender identities or expressions. Several St. Louis religious leaders will be present to speak, but the event is not inherently religious. Following the meeting at the clocktower we will process to the Swamp, and then into Friedman Lounge in Wohl Center where our guests will speak.

    Showing of Southern Comfort: Thursday, Nov. 17th @ 8PM in Friedman Lounge (Wohl Center). Come see this award winning, powerful documentary on the life and death of a trans man dying of ovarian cancer in the deep south. For reviews and more information about the film, see this link.

Loren Cameron's photographs have become beautiful icons of a burgeoning transgender movement. His book,"Body Alchemy: Transsexual Portraits" (1996) has been regarded as groundbreaking. In his presentation he will show some of his newest and latest work, relate his experience as a transsexual photographer as well as discuss the lives of the people he photographs. The presentation will be followed by a book-signing. Don't miss this rare opportunity to see this renowned photographer present his work!

    Midterm General Body Meeting

    It's about half-way through the semester, so there will be a general body meeting @ 8PM Tuesday Nov. 1st in Women's Building Suite 300. Help us with the rest of this year's events, brainstorm plans for next semester, think of ideas for guest speakers, voice your comments and concerns, or just hang out and eat our left-over s'mores. This is your time to speak up, so be sure to drop by, even if just for a few minutes.

    Come Out!

    I'd like to thank everyone for the GREAT turnout at GLBTQIA Awareness Week events this year--it's the best this campus has ever had! We aren't done yet, though. There are many (seriously--many) events planned for the semester, some of which will presently be presented to you in convenient list format:

    Wednesday, Oct. 19th @ 9:15PM on the S40 Swamp: "Come Out To The Sukkah" with Pride Alliance and Keshet, WashU's Jewish GLBTQIA student group. Free dessert and hot chocolate will be provided as you do arts & crafts, mingle, pick up buttons and ribbons, and--of course--have tons of fun!

    Wednesday, Oct. 26th: "National Intersex Awareness Day". Details are still pending, but there will be an event that evening at 8PM in Women's Building Suite 300 relating to that mysterious "I" in the GLBTQIA alphabet soup. Expect a showing of a short film/documentary followed by a facilitated discussion.

    Friday, Nov. 18th @ 6PM in the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum (Steinberg Auditorium): "Transworks: Transsexual Images by Loren Cameron". Loren Cameron's photographs have become beautiful icons of a burgeoning transgender movement. His book, Body Alchemy: Transsexual Portraits (1996), has been regarded as groundbreaking. In his presentation he will show some of his newest and latest work, relate his experience as a transsexual photographer, and discuss the lives of the people he photographs. The presentation will be followed by a book-signing. See http://www.lorencameron.com/ for more information.

    TBA: Gayla Committee Meeting. Help organize WashU's 2nd annual GLBTQIA formal! Last year over 200 people attended, and it was a smashing success. The event will not be until late next semester (April-ish), but we must start organizing things immediately. I will lead the first meeting, but the Gayla will not be an event run by Pride Alliance--we want people from all over the WashU community. If you are interested in being on the planning committee e-mail pride@restech.wustl.edu ASAP so that we can organize a meeting time within the next few weeks. I am looking for approximately 10-12 individuals, especially people who helped out last year! Time commitment: expect to meet once or twice a month until the event.

    WashU Political Review is looking for people to submit articles or essays regarding GLBTQIA issues. If you are interested in submitting something or have an idea for an article e-nail pride@restech.wustl.edu

    Come join Pride Alliance and PFLAG (Parents, Families, and Friends of Lesbians & Gays) for a Parent's Weekend discussion and question/answer session about GLBT life on campus, being a parent of a GLBT student, and how to come out to your parents as G,L,B, or T.

    Monday, Oct. 10th @ 7PM "Guerrilla Flyering: A Night of Noise" in Women's Building, Suite 300

    Basically, we want every single bulletin board on campus to have an awareness-related flyer on it. To do this, we need your help. Like, a lot. Pretty please.

    Tuesday, Oct. 11th @ 8PM "CampOUT" in Women's Building, Suite 300

    Come eat S'mores, share coming out stories around the campfire (well, actually the, uh, votive candle), or just sit back and listen. Allies are especially encouraged to come. It's sure to be a grand time! Really!

    Wednesday, Oct. 12th @ 6PM "Panel Discussion at SLU" in room 254 of the SLU Busch Student Center

    Our friends at SLU's Rainbow Alliance are hosting a panel discussion about GLBT issues on their campus. Panel members include various members from the St. Louis GLBTQA community and a wide range of topics will be covered that directly pertain to the St. Louis GLBTQA community.

    Come explore this amazing St. Louis asset with us for half the price (tickets will be only $5)! PLEASE RSVP IF YOU WANT TO COME. We won't be gone for the whole evening (probably until 10:30 or 11PM), so all of you party animals can still go out. Visit http://www.citymuseum.org/ for more information and pictures of this enormous playground for adults.

    Sunday, Oct. 16th @ 5:30PM "Showing of The Laramie Project " in Friedman Lounge (Wohl Center on the S40)
