Walk Like A Slut

It's Super Slut!
Amber Rose

Yesterday was the Third Annual Amber Rose SlutWalk in Downtown Los Angeles. I thought about heading to DTLA to check it out having never been, but alas had too many of my own things happening.

Seriously though I have wondered for the previous two years what the exact purpose of SlutWalk was and what attending it would be like. Here is the mission statement via the SW website:

"To deliver a flawlessly executed event geared toward raising awareness about sexual injustice and gender inequality. The Amber Rose SlutWalk aims to impact and uplift, while shifting the paradigm of rape culture. The event provides a safe, all-inclusive space to entertain, educate, and empower"

Here is an overview of the SlutWalk experience: 

"The Amber Rose SlutWalk is a day festival filled with many cool activities, contests and giveaways, vendors, speakers, panelist, performances, live DJs, sign making, educational booths, photo fun, free breast cancer exams, HIV testing, and much more" 

Me likey, next year count this slut in!

Son Of A Preacher Man

Preaching: Just Say No
Tom Goss

Remember the classic tune, Son of a Preacher Man by the legendary Dusty Springfield? Well the song has just been turned on it's ass by singer/songwriter/actor/activist and all around cool guy Tom Goss.

The out, bear loving artist has given the familiar staple a powerful gay twist. 

"A lot of gay men and women have been condemned by religious institutions. Our goal was to speak to that experience and show how destructive it can be. 

We hope that this video reaches people, helps heal people, educates people and provides an outlet to help promote those who are doing so much to curb the pain. 

Notably organizations like The Trevor Project and PFLAG."  States Goss. 

So without further fanfare stop, look and listen to his awesome take on an old hit!
