In 1965 during the Civil Rights Movement, was the first gay rights demonstration which led to the gay liberation movement in the 70’s. Being such an impactful commemoration it inspired more liberating groups in the growing gay and lesbian world such as: feminist movements, record labels, music festivals and the National Organization for Women. This quickly evolved into acceptance in a place of worship when the first gay minister was ordained in ’72. Soon after, several large political groups formed in support of the growing “outing” of a gay society in a stand for gay rights. (Morris, 2017)

4.1. Pros of Salvation Army in 2014 the United Nation’s refugee agency reported that the number of society forced to escape their houses across the global had outstripped 50 million their times since the World War II Crisis. The leader of Salvation Army territorial Ollie and his wife were listening to the report about refugee on the radio then they decided that they wanted see the refugee. Next Monday the local newspaper ran a story saying The Salvation Army was receiving donations of clothes for refugees, even though Christine did not ask for that. She and Ollie only found out when a TV station phoned to ask how the clothing appeal was going. That was first they heard, they said “we felt this was God’s way of saying to use that we must care about the refugees.

Milton Reid was New Hope Baptist Church’s first full time pastor. Before Rev. Reid came to New Hope’s the pastor only served on the second and fourth Sunday. Our communion was held on the second Sunday. Rev. Reid changed the communion to the first Sunday and rearranged the choir. He gave the Senior Choir the first and third Sunday and the Junior Choir the second and fourth Sunday. My mother made robes for the choir and even embroidered names in them to prevent any mix-ups. She also ordered sheet music for us from the Theodore Presser Company in Chicago, Illinois. At the time there were no available places in the area to purchase sheet music. These things were done by the “Grace of God” and at no expense to the church. We had rehearsal every Monday night. The memories are pleasant even though for many years during the winter months there was no automatic heat. I would go to the church ahead of time to make a fire. Most of the time my father would help me, and sometime I was on my own. I would make sure the fire would burn before going back home then return later for rehearsal if it was not warm when the choir members came in they would gather around the potbellied stove and I was up front on the piano with my coat on. By the time the church really got good and warm, it was time to

After working as a journalist at Cairns radio stations 4CA and Hot FM, in 1999 he volunteered at local youth service YouthLink, where he started the first gay youth group in Cairns, “Guys Like Us”. Feeling fortunate to have attended a similar group in Brisbane, he wanted the same opportunity for youth in Cairns. Made redundant when the radio station centralised their newsroom in Townsville,

My group was ambitious and were able to work well together during this project. In spite of the problems we faced, our group was successful in presenting a well executed performance of Paul Rudnick’s Jeffrey. This project and course provided insight to the difficulties endured primarily by homosexual men during the AIDS epidemic, which in turn heightened my own awareness and appreciation of diversity in the world

In many ways, Leslie Feinberg’s Stone Butch Blues does more than explore what it means to be a part of the LGBTQ community. In many ways, Stone Butch Blues is a “how to” book just as much as it is a lifeline for the LGBTQ community. It is a “how to” book in the sense it examines how to be a member of the LGBTQ community, while at the same time revealing the follies of a definitive correct way how. In doing so, Feinberg reveals not only the performative nature of gender, but also how the concept of gender and strict binaries can be a destructing and limiting forced within and outside of the LGBTQ community.
After this, a female soloist performed and as a whole group the song finished. The second vocal ensemble of the night started out with a song which included a twelve bar blues, called “ I use to know you”. This performance consisted of the most combinations of solos of the night as well as using an improvising style. The entire band started all together which led to a Trumpet solo. Then Jose on the Sax did his solo followed by the pianist comping. Then the choir along with the band joined together to lead to a female solo which was particularly interesting since she was scatting. The second performance of this ensemble was “Spring can really hang you up the most” which consisted of 3/4 time and 4/4 time. This started with a female solo vocalist then a male one. The band as a whole played together and ended with a male solo scatting. The third and shortest performance of the night was a vocal acapella piece, “Love walked in” which was short and sweet. The fourth performance of the night was a Richmond Rogers piece. This had a rhythmic swing/salsa feel from the “Lady is a tramp”. This started with the rhythm section, with the male vocalist and horns. Then the female vocalist from the choir joined and concluded this piece. The fifth performance for the group was a sequel to voice stand an acapella piece by Greg Jaspers. This song started with the choir using their voices as the instruments altogether. The final performance of the night was one of
