SundayOUT Street Festival: Sunday, May 4th
The Philly "Gayborhood"
Thousands of people filled Philadelphia's traditional
"gayborhood" on Sunday to celebrate
Equality Forum's SundayOUT festival. At 2pm, attendees
took a break from the fun to respond to a serious
matter -- the anti-gay remarks made by Senator
Rick Santorum just a few weeks prior. A rally
at 13th & Walnut Streets featured City Councilman
Frank DiCicco, Stacey Sobel of the Center for
Lesbian and Gay Civil Rights, Mara Keisling of
the PA Gender Rights Coalition, and Equality Forum's
own Malcolm Lazin. After the rally, the sun shone
down for the rest of the day, as participants
enjoyed live entertainment, music, food and camaraderie.
