A Tribute To A Pioneer: E. Lynn Harris | The Lion's Historian
-
There may be many people wondering just why the death of E. Lynn Harris is such a “big deal.” Several of my readers may never have heard of him, and several more may have heard his name, but were never moved to purchase a piece of his literature. Allow me a minute to share with you my personal perspective, which will hopefully shed light on just why this is such an unfortunate event.

Opinion: So You Don’t Wanna Be Gay Anymore? Now What?
arlier today, I was busy watching the news, and working the blog (stopping frequently for video game time, of course), when I came across an article on Lisa Miller, a Virginia woman who's been actively battling to deny her ex-partner child visitation rights since their split. Janet Jenkins and Lisa
Opinion: Does the Gay Rights Movement Need A National Leader? | The Lion's Historian
I read a really interesting piece in the New York Times yesterday entitled, “Why the Gay Rights Movement Has No National Leader”. Essentially, the article highlighted, while pondering, the fact that the Gay Rights Movement has achieved such landmark success without the face of a so-called “national leader” such as Frederick Douglas, who was the face of the Abolitionist Movement; Martin Luther King Jr., who was the face of the Civil Rights Movement; or Gloria Steinam, whom is often viewed as the face of the Womens’ Rights Movement.

Fiction: Gotta Get Up (Pt. 6) | The Lion's Historian

“Hey Kyle, what gives? It’s gotta be sumthin’ good for you to be paying me a visit in my neck of the woods at this time of night.” We exchanged a tough embrace and walked into the cafe for seating. “Don’t you have work tomorrow?”
She chuckled a bit as we settled into our seats, “Well, normally, but I quit my job, and that’s part of the reason I’m here.”
“You what!?” I cried in utter shock. “You’ve been at that factory for years!? You’re management; you make great pay!? What happened!?”

I’ve cleaned just about everything I could find to clean.
I’ve cleaned out my closet and donated all the extra clothing to Goodwill.
I’ve cleaned out the refrigerator and every cupboard in the kitchen, and donated all the non-perishables to the women’s shelter.
I’ve even cleaned Rocko, who stood patiently in the bathtub while I soaped his fur and ran water along his belly just the way I know he likes.
I’ve cleaned all the floors, the hallways, the tables and countertops, the sinks, the windows, the trash cans, the bathtub, the toilet.
But, I can’t clean enough.
So, when the thought of the Rent production showing at the local theatre popped into my mind, I began to see it as more of a good idea and less of a waste of my time. After all, Rent was always one of my favorite Broadway plays, and without work to kill the hours, well I’ve got thousands and thousands of pounds of extra time on my shoulders. Might as well shed a few hours of it at the theatre.

Lips sweet like honeydew melon. Your fingers in my hair, pulling softly. Small breathes escaping. The sun filtering in through the blinds in my apartment. Your skin, golden brown, soft, and scented lightly of sandelwood. Our legs long and tangled, endlessly.
Oh god, I’ve missed you. Don’t go. Don’t go. Don’t go.
