my organization is Chicago Blatino pride Alliance. We are looking for a space that is handicap accessible to hold our montlhly meetings. I am the President of the organization and I'm also disabled.

Our mission is to bring together the African American and Hispanic GBLTQ communities together as one unities to tackle the issues that pleque both communities as a whole. We will also provide assistance to those who needs it as well as to provide a safe environment where they can meet others without the hassles of going to the bars or using the internet to meet others for friendship and possible relationship. CBPA is not about downing anyone we are about educating our youn counter parts as well as to hel them accept themselves. I hope that there's someone who can provide an answer for me. If you would like the join our yahoo group u can do so at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Chicag_Blatino_Pride_Alliance

Factors that could influence this perception are, the media, gender socialization and stereotypes.

Mother is 99 and is being displaced for the 2nd time this year from a local senior supportive living facility.

In the interim she was in a nursing home for almost 2 months last spring because the first building where she had lived since 1979 was closed while she was in the hospital and she literally did not have a home!

I will be 62 in January but have been retired since 2001 and live in market rate housing.

The solution is for the two of us to live together.

Individually our income meets Section 8 guidelines, the combined total exceeds the maximum.

The 2 buildings where she had lived had project based "Section 8" but we just completed her voucher paperwork about 2 weeks ago.

Is it somehow possible to get a waiver on the income limits so that we might live together? The alternative might well be for her to return to a nursing home as a medicaid patient.

Your tax dollars at work?

To whom should I "plead my cause"?

I was feeling sorry for myself that we haven't heard from any of the kids or grandkids today. Then I realized, they haven't heard from us, either. I sent them a group greeting.

I now feel right at home and one of the gang! I wont say why, but it involved the words "get" and "life" to someone who was being rude to someone else. Happy Thanksgiving!

I kid you not, got it last night after I signed off. It's a good thing I don't celebrate holidays, or my dinner would have been a flop. I waited for this news my entire life & thought I'd be happy when he died. How does a person deal with the death of a person who has wronged them as a child? Anyone else ever go through this type of a thing? It IS a serious question. This monster was born on an 8 day & died on an 8 day, so I know he's coming back again.

Apparently liberals want quotas on who can be sent to prison..

Blacks are a minority of the US population, yet commit a majority of the crimes- hence the majority of prison inmates are black.

Blacks and liberals insist this is rascist- they think there should be just as many whites in jail as blacks..

How is the fact that blacks commit more crimes, are caught, tried and imprisoned proof that the jails are racist against blacks?

They have banned me several times as well as many other people. They like to remove questions left and right as well, like my question on why yahoo tortures chinese journalists (with a reputable link).

I see now that I have a block on me to prevent me from seeing and/or answering questions. I can see all the questions, but when I click on one to "see" it, I can't, I am blocked. Have I said anything to any one that has offended them? If I have, let me know what it was. I don't mean to make anyone mad at me, nor do I want to hurt any ones feelings. If I have offended someone, I am so sorry.

Disclaimer: I don't mean to challenge the notion of gay rights or suggest that the GLBT community owes anything to the Black clergy. However, it seems that many prominent GLBT voices (e.g. Dan Savage) often criticize / attack the Black clergy about some of its teachings (and the existence of fellows like Donnie McClurkin), but never give props to guys like Al Sharpton (who is in favor of gay marriage) and Jessie Jackson (who has been in favor of gay rights at least since 1984, way before it became fashionable). As we say in the 'hood, Wassup with that?

People from France are French, people from Germany are Germans, but they are both European. People from Japan are Japanese and China are Chinese, but both are Asian. Why are people from Mexico not considered American. Isn't Mexico part of North America? Aren't Mexicans also Americans?
