Bernie Sanders and Wilson Cruz Hit Drag Brunch in West Hollywood: WATCH

Bernie Sanders was campaigning in West Hollywood today and paid a visit to drag brunch at Hamburger Mary’s on Santa Monica Boulevard, where he was greeted by a big “Yaaaasss.”

Sanders was accompanied by actor Wilson Cruz, who wrote earlier in the day, on Facebook: “GOOD MORNING WEHO! Senator Sanders is in town and has asked me to take a walk with him. We’ll be on Santa Monica Blvd in front of City Hall at 1130AM and we’ll be visiting some brunch spots! Come out and say hi!”

New UFC Champ Michael Bisping Calls Opponent Luke Rockhold a ‘Faggot’ in Post-Fight Trash Talk: WATCH

Michael Bisping

Back in 2011 UFC fighter Michael Bisping made headlines for referring to his opponent as a “faggot m-fer” in  promotional video for a Sydney fight.

On Saturday, Bisping won the UFC middleweight title, and while he may have grown as a fighter, he hasn’t learned anything from the incident five years ago, and referred to his opponed Luke Rockhold as a “c–ksucker and a “faggot” at the end of a post-fight press conference when Rockhold refused to shake his hand.

“Shouldn’t have said that,” Bisping added.

Miss Major is a veteran of the Stonewall Rebellion and a survivor of Attica State Prison, a former sex worker, an elder, and a community leader and human rights activist.

Miss Major’s personal story and activism for transgender civil rights intersects LGBTQ struggles for justice and equality from the 1960s to today.At the center of her activism is her fierce advocacy for her girls, trans women of color who have survived police brutality and incarceration in men’s jails and prisons.Miss Major is the former Executive Director of the San Francisco-based Transgender Gender-Variant Intersex Justice Project (TGIJP), which advocates for trans women of color in and outside of prison.

Miss Major’s first speaking appearance in Toronto was an opportunity to have a conversation with award-winning documentary filmmaker Annalise Ophelian in honour of the Toronto Premiere of MAJOR!, the feature documentary about her life and campaigns, and a historic opportunity to meet and speak with a true mother of the LGBTQ civil rights movement.
