This is actually really serious, so I’m going to take a break from humor for a second to alert you all to a serious need in the community. A queer landmark is in danger and needs your help. Learn about the S.S. Gay on the Gowanus Canal in the video below.

These sort of landmarks are essential to bridging an understanding with the greater community in New York of more radical identity politics and queer issues and we need to preserve them. While in my opinion the city should be funding this, spaces for radical queer politics just don’t tend to get much support from the Government, even if they might merit historical landmark status, at least in my opinion. Not to mention that the boat looks pretty rad. They’ve really fixed it up. Let’s not lose this. These men and women need your help. This is the S.S. Gay and it wants to recruit you!

There’s a benefit on March 28th at 78 Lafayette. Please attend. It’s a sliding scale donation of anywhere from 5-20 bucks so I am sure all of you can do this. Learn more on the web site to Save The Gay.
