Call for Action
I have had a terrible week at work. 10 hrs a day working 2hrs a day commuting 4 hrs on the bad weather day meant that I did not get much time to write many posts. I have done a little work keeping up with news and politics.
I have a couple of things to bring to your attention.
Ford Motor Company has reportedly caved into a campaign by the American Family Assn, a right wing extremist group. Ford has agreed to stop all advertising in all LGBT publications and to stop sponsoring LBGT events. They are supposed to refer all questions and comments to the AFA. It would appear that Ford , who previously has been very supportive, has now aligned itself with a major foe of LBGT rights.
The GLAAD web site has the email address and mailing address of Ford to protest. On another site I found the e-mail of William Clay Ford Jr. The chairman & CEO of Ford. WFord@ford.com. It would be great if you would send him an e-mail letting him know what you think of Ford taking a position which is against your personal rights as a LBGT citizen.
see http://www.glaad.org for more details .(Gay Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.) I will have more soon.
