Obama to Host LGBTs Amid Skepticism Over His Agenda

That's the title of a report by NBC Washington on a reception for LGBT activists being hosted by President Obama this afternoon to mark the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall uprising. A few of us will be attending, and we'll report back. My take on Obama's relationship with the gay community is here. My C-SPAN interview on the subject, held June 20, is here.

Update: Jarrett Barrios, incoming president of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, comments in The Washington Post. Also in WaPo is Michael Hamill Remaley's "Stonewall Baby, All Grown Up" and an interview with openly gay former soldier Anthony Woods, who is now running for U.S. Congress from the 10th District of California.
