The Outer Alliance
August 18th, 2009You’ve got to love it when a flower blooms from a pile of shit.
After a very homophobic and hateful post by a SFF writer who shall remain nameless and linkless (mostly because I don’t want to give the guy an inch more attention than he’s already managed to squeeze out of his ignorance), The Outer Alliance gets itself born.
The site is brand new, and the organizers are scurrying around getting things together, but I wanted to point all of you towards the site in case you are interested in helping or joining (I am going to). The Alliance is for “Anyone who supports the community’s tenets and is committed to engaging in intelligent discussion about LGBT issues in SF/F. This is a group founded in the belief that the best course against bigotry and discrimination is by rising above it, not stooping down to it.
