Saturday, May 22, 2010

3:00pm – 6:00pm

Father Serra Park

123 Paseo De La Plaza

Los Angeles, CA

The “Coming Out” rally will be a massive and public action where the entire crowd will individually and from the stage COME OUT. It is statistically proven, and a message of Harvey Milk, that individuals are more likely to vote EQUALITY when they know someone who is LGBTQ. – Harvey Milk Day Facebook Group

PLEASE COME OUT COME OUT WHEREVER YOU ARE

AND CHEER ON KYLE!

SAVE THE DATE!

The Bi/Fluid Pride contingent is marching loud and proud for the 3rd year in a row at the LA Pride Parade on Sunday, June 13th in West Hollywood, and we need everyone who is proudly bisexual/fluid/ pansexual, significant others, and allies to come out and march that day! Once again, our slogan will be “BISEXUALS ROCK!” because boy, do we!!!

Groups involved:
Los Angeles Bi Task Force (LABTF)
AMBI (A Meeting of Bi Individuals)
BiNet USA
American Institute of Bisexuality (AIB)
… and others!

We’re also having an after-party at Faith’s apartment right in WeHo (details TBA), so don’t miss out on all the festivities!

There’s 3 ways to get involved:

1) WALK WITH US
We’re aiming for an even bigger group than last year. Just RSVP either by replying to this e-mail, by confirming on Facebook at: http://www.facebook .com/reqs. php#!/event. php?eid=11505975 1861132&ref=mf or on Meetup at: http://www.meetup. com/ambila/ calendar/ 13342675/. Again, anyone bisexual/fluid/ pansexual- identified, significant others, and allies can come! And forward this e-mail broadly!

2) HELP PLAN THE EVENT
Get involved from the ground up! Roll up your sleeves and help us be even louder and prouder than last year! We could use help in graphic design, publicity, sign-making, t-shirts, party set-up, etc. Just reply to this e-mail or come to the next LABTF meeting on Wed May 5th at 7:30pm at the LA Gay & Lesbian Center.

3) DONATE A LITTLE CASH
We are a fledgling grassroots org, and it takes money to put together a contingent! Registration itself costs $200, and then there’s costs of supplies and the after-party too. Even $10 or $20 is greatly appreciated – any little bit helps! Just make your donation at: http://labicenter. org/?page_ id=309.

Look for updates (on time for meeting up, after-party, etc) via e-mail and on the LABTF website.

See you in June!!
