I’m trying to find a shelter for a transgender female. Do you know of any in Houston, TX

To offer transgender hormone and prep services

Hello you are using a design of ours and I would like you to stop or use us to make said design. It is very important to us and I hope we don’t have to get lawyers involved

Hi- I’m a candidate for city council district C and would love to attend.

I would like to participate in a panel in Houston Texas about a candid conversion about what it means to be out. I am concerned honestly about the types of people who are lauded as trans women in this town. The issue of a child sex offender drag queen represents trans women won’t stand. I will be kind I will be calm. However, trans women living full time holding down actual jobs who have been impacted by HERO must have a voice. I want to work with this organization to help all.

Would love to get involved!!

Hello,


I am a bilingual speech language pathologist and I focus on underrepresented communities. I am interested in working with the transgender community to offer voice health, voice maintenance, and accent modification services in Spanish and English.


I am hoping you can assist me with resources and information on upcoming events for Spanish and English transgender groups/meetings. I would love to be a part of assisting individuals’ communication needs during their transition.


Thank you in advance.


Best regards,

I am a transgender female physician who practiced in Houston, TX for 30 years.


We are in the process of creating LGBT Studios on the ROKU Network. This will be the first network devoted 24/7 with

programing directed to the LBGT community. This comprises 50 million Americans, most of whom are in the

critical age 18-45 age range for advertisers.


Patrick James (sirpatrickpictures.com) and I are creating original content for this network. We anticipate weekly shows

for the following topics:


POLITICAL NEWS – SEEK TO ELECT AS MANY LGBT MEMBERS AS POSSIBLE – DAILY UPDATE ON CONGRESSIONAL, STATE AND LOCAL EVENTS. PROMOTE CIVIL RIGHTS FOR EQUAL OPPORTUNITY FOR EMPLOYMENT, A FAIR WAGE AND COMBAT PREJUDICE AGAINST FELONS TRYING TO RE-ENTER THE LABOR MARKET.

MEDICAL. (PROMOTE SAFE SEX) (PROMOTE USE OF PROPHYLACTIC MEDICATIONS TO PREVENT TRANSMISSION OF STDS, ETC).

PSYCHOLOGICAL ISSUES

FASHION

HOME DECORATION

TRAVEL

MONEY MANAGEMENT AND BUSINESS

ENTERTAINMENT NEWS CHANNEL

PERSONAL INTERVIEWS OF LGBT INDIVIDUALS

LITERARY REVIEWS OF NEW PUBLICATIONS AND THE ARTS IN GENERAL

A SARCASTIC-BLACK HUMOR SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE LIKE GAY REVIEW OF THE WEEK’S LATEST NEWS

CHARITABLE FOUNDATION TO RAISE FUNDS FOR THE TREATMENT OF HIV, ALZHEIMER’S, ALCOHOL AND DRUG ADDICTION – ALL OF WHICH HAVE A DISPROPORTIONATE EFFECT ON THE LGBT COMMUNITY.

ENTERTAINMENT COMPETITION FOR ALL FORMS OF DANCE, MUSIC, BALLET, ETC.

CREATE THE GAY HALL OF FAME IN HOUSTON, TX

AND MUCH MORE

Last week we recorded a 30 minute video and a 4 minute demo for the first weekly medical show on the topic

of “Update on Prevention of the Transmission of HIV Infection.” Patrick interviewed me for this segment. We recorded my

one hour lesson with one of the foremost voice instructors in the United States (www.HoustonFeldenkrais.com). She has worked with members of the Houston Grand Opera as well as other transgender females. Surgery does not work. Voice training is the only credible means to effectively transform from a male to a female personna.


We request the opportunity to discuss with you how we could coordinate our efforts. We offer you a weekly (? daily) format to present news and opinion that would be directed to the LGBT community.


Very truly yours,


Sharon Kaplan, M.D. (aka Ira Klein, M.D.

Hello, I need assistance filing workplace harassment against a coworker in addition to filing discrimination and retaliation against my employer. I am coming to you mainly because the company currently only has 11 employees which prevents any of us of being covered by state or federal EEOC laws. My name is Ja Dre’On Robinson and my cell phone number is 832-228-7653 in which you can reach me on or text me at, at any time. Thank you for your time and I hope you can assist me or point me in the right direction. I am an African-American gay male and again I have been harassed by a Hispanic female coworker by being referred to as a “faggot” and “butt-fucking buddy” & when I filed a complaint to HR, I was retaliated against by being removed from the schedule due to recording audio that proved the incident occurred and such derogatory things were stated about or towards me to another coworker. The alleged was not taken off the schedule nor was she reprimanded and now I feel as though If I were not a male, black nor were I gay, it would have been taken serious as well as taken care of. I have gathered all documentation that proves that the work environment has been very hostile, is there anything I can do to ensure I receive the proper treatment?

Am wanting to know about parking at the TDOR at U of H.

There’re facts in the ruling of all politics which do not echo the color of upbringing or the ethics of background but an eternal struggle of ignorance against the enlightenment of knowledge. . .

Question: Though the ordinance does not specifically speak on restrooms, if a transgender male to female uses a public ladies restroom, and if they trans male to female is questioned about it , can they use HERO as a protection of their gender identity and therefore their use of a ladies room if they are trying to use the restroom?

SO … HERO does allow males to use female bathrooms. You keep saying …with the intent to cause a disturbance. So if he goes in there to use the facilities, that’s okay????

I would like to purchase some t-shirts and yard signs, please let me know how to go about this.

How do I get a sign for my yard?

Hi HOUequality,

I am attaching a press release about the Rothko Chapel’s support for HERO. Please let me know if you have any questions or if you would like more information.

The Rothko Chapel Supports HERO:

Nonprofit Considers Houston’s Critical Human Rights Vote


HOUSTON – The Rothko Chapel has announced its support of the Houston Equal Rights Ordinance (HERO) – a measure that will come on the ballot as Proposition 1 in the November election.


The city ordinance, introduced by Mayor Annise Parker last year, protects residents from any type of discrimination based on “sex, race, color, ethnicity, national origin, age, familial status, marital status, military status, religion, disability, sexual orientation, genetic information, gender identity, or pregnancy.”


As Texas is one of more than 20 states that does not have a law to prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, Houston voters will be asked to decide whether the ordinance stays in place or is eliminated on Election Day, Nov. 3.


The Rothko Chapel decided to take a stand on the issue during its regular board meeting on Friday, Sept. 18 – voting unanimously to support HERO and join Houston Unites, a coalition dedicated to campaigning for a vote to protect the ordinance. Leading partners and supporters include the ACLU of Texas, Human Rights Campaign, NAACP Houston Branch, Greater Houston Partnership, Anti-Defamation League, National Council of Jewish Women, Unitarian Universalist Voice for Justice and Cathedral of Hope.


David Leslie, executive director of the Chapel, said the nonprofit’s board began discussing the issue over the summer, when the Texas Supreme Court ruled that Houston’s City Council either needed to repeal HERO or place it on the November ballot.


“The City Council voted to put it on the ballot,” Leslie said. “Our ultimate decision to support the measure rested on the Chapel’s long record in support of human rights and a belief that this is one of the most important human rights issues that Houston has faced in last decade.”


Rothko Chapel representatives attended the Houston Unites faith leaders breakfast Thursday, Sept. 24 and then will be working with the coalition to support Proposition 1 including helping to clear up mischaracterizations about the ordinance.



“Hopefully, our support will add another important interfaith and human rights voice in support of HERO communicating that protecting all from unfair discrimination is an important issue for all Houstonians,” Leslie said.


He explained that the Rothko Chapel’s mission is to inspire people to action through art and contemplation, to nurture reverence for the highest aspirations of humanity, and to provide a forum for global concerns.


“The Rothko Chapel welcomes and values deeply the dignity, worth and rights of all people,” Leslie said. “These principles are seen clearly in the genesis of the Chapel, as well as in the programming we do which brings together people from different backgrounds and sectors for dialogue, prayer or reflection and work on common issues.”


He added that the Chapel’s public outreach efforts call attention to people living on the margins – social, religious, economic and political – and focus on programs to lift them up.


“It seems not just appropriate but necessary that the Chapel support HERO — especially since it is an equal rights ordinance that supports that equal rights of all people,” Leslie said. “There are similar ordinances in more than 200 cities throughout the U.S. — including other cities in Texas”


“The Rothko Chapel is committed to building an inclusive and welcoming city where there is no room for covert or overt discrimination,” Leslie said.
