Be’er Sheva marches in solidarity

dotanh — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 12:21:00 +0000

On Saturday evening a gunman walked into the GLBT center in Tel Aviv during an activity for teenagers, took his gun out, wounded 15 and killed two.

We still do not know who did it – the murderer just walked away and is still free – but this event, without a doubt showed us the true face of homophobia, hate and violence. If you have not heard about this or want to read more, there was much more information on this posted on my twitter account and on the israleft.org twitter account, as the story developed.

Solidarity demonstrations, marches and rallies took place yesterday in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Haifa and Be’er Sheva. This was the first ever pride parade, though a sad one, to ever take place in Be’er Sheva, and we were proud to take part in it. We were about 250 people, and we marched from the court hall to the local GLBT center in the old city, where we lit candles and heard a few speeches by the leaders of the chapter, parents and others.

Here are a few shots from the event.

Sign reads: “Be’er Sheva aches”.

Sign reads: “In his image he created men”.

Waving the flag?

The making of the Across the Universe tribute gift for Shahar and Noga

Our dear friends, and fellow “Wow! ‘Across the Universe’ is just awesome!” buddies, Shahar and Noga, got married last week. These pictures document the process of making their wedding gift. Robin did the painting, I took pictures, Lucy was just hanging out and did not contribute too much, other than just being cute and supportive.

Mazal Tov!
