Queerty v EQCA:
Live-blogging the LA Equality Summit


There are at least two choices today to follow some live-blogging of the EQCA-organized Prop 8 and failed gay leadership summit in Los Angelges today.

There's the bland relentless cheerleading style of blogging, with much gushing, from EQCA's resident blogger George Simpson. Click here for his live-blogging. No comments from readers have been posted yet.

- Good morning! I'm sitting here at the Equality Summit in Los Angeles. I'm looking forward to building strong coalitions and generating exciting new ideas today. ...

- Rabbi Denise Eger and Reverend Jonipher Kwong just lead all assembled in a peaceful invocation, asking us to "leave our agendas aside." ...

- I'm especially excited about the next presentation by David Binder, coming up in Equality Summit Liveblog II.


For a more realistic take on what's happening down there, you have to check out Japhy Grant's live-blogging over at Queerty.com. Click here to read his take on things.

From chilly and gray San Francisco, I say it's great to see two rays of sunshine coming from Los Angeles.
