Outgiving 2011 is now over, what is to come…

outgiving2011_logo
Yes the two day event where the cost to attend was $1400.00 per person is now over.

Yet still nothing is being said. What was talked about, who was there, and what new policies were created?

Will our NC blogger over at the Pams houseblend report what was going on at this very secretive meeting, or will be kept in the dark.

other blogger had this to say about Outgiving 2011;

10 Questions about the Mysterious Event called OutGiving 2011 http://bit.ly/iiE1gV

this was said about the last Outgiving;

here’s where #OutGiving secrecy does a disservice to the movement at large: Real progress won’t come as long as politicians, particularly Democrats, can rely on big gay money even after doing nothing to earn it.

what about this question;

No press allowed? If Obama or HRC did this, there would a haterade for the next 3 months from certain bloggers and activists. Where is the transparency?

I know one blogger who would made it her mission to find out why. Yet she is now apart of this group, so I doubt we will see anything from her…

OutGiving Secret Gay Inc., Conference in FL

For those whom might not know there is another Dallas type meeting happening in Miami Fl, this weekend (THE MIAMI AGENDA 2011). Two hundred people were email a special invite to this event. Then they had to registered for the event which cost $1400.00 per person. This Event was hosted and planned by the Gill Foundation.. 

ALSO NO PRESS WAS INVITED OR ALLOW…

One of NC own bloggers was invited to this event. Yes Pam of Pam’s houseblend was invited and went to this Event.

This was her first tweet about the event,

Report from #Outgiving - panels on great topics - #DADT, #marriage, social media (mine), #trans #bullying, etc.; nothing top secret IMHO.

TwitLonger- RT @ngblog- The subject matter is not top secret (actually I signed the opposite of an NDA -- a rele_1299278832996
Yet I’m sure the majority are bloggers and LGBT activist which mean there are already in the public as a public figure.




TwitLonger- @ngblog @sickntired all I've seen is listening & learning -- this is the 1st time social media u_1299279424571
Social media has been around since Obama got elected. as for the entire LGBT ecosystem,this type can survive without each other, unlike those in a true ecosystem.

Yes More Rich gay men trying to take ownership of the LGBT movement. They also are trying to turn the movement into what they want it to be. Not what is truly in the best interest of our communities.

Then why are we being deny to participate in this event..

Why are you blocking us from this opportunity to contribute to our community. Those that have been chosen are those whom have large sums of money. The working class gays are being left out, solely because we don’t have finical footing.

The Gill Foundation is one of the nation’s largest funders of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender equal rights work. Our goal is straightforward: we want to create an America in which all people are treated equally and respectfully.

Over the course of our history, we have invested more than $178 million, including $106 million in grants, to support programs and nonprofit organizations across America that share our commitment to equal rights for all Americans.

Yet they are not treating us equally at all.. Like the old saying “ money talks, shit walks.”

VIA twitter,

Report from #Outgiving - panels on great topics - #DADT, #marriage, social media (mine), #trans #bullying, etc.; nothing top secret IMHO. From Pam Spaulding..

Yet they can’t explain why #OutGiving is private LGBT event that is keeping the press out?

Emails have been sent asking why, no reply to date from the Gill.

THE main three at the Gill, Tim Gill, Urvashi Vaid, John Barabino.

this was the contact for the event, well the person on the invite email, any way.

Gill Foundtion is only for the Rich LGBTmembers





Working or middle class gays need not apply.

According to it's press release:
OutGiving 2011 promises to be our most thought-provoking and stimulating conference ever. We will focus on the work being done on local, national and international levels. We’ll examine current data on the state of the LGBT movement‘s organizations and issues. We’ll look closely at the changing environment, including changes in public attitudes on issues like marriage equality and safe schools, as well as the evolving trends and tactics of our opposition. And we’ll discuss expanded opportunities to engage new allies and new leadership, as well as the promise and challenges of organizing and communicating through new media.
Get ready....
OutGiving is an invitation-only event, no press allowed. We expect approximately 200 men and women whose cumulative net worth is in excess of $2 billion dollars to join us at this conference. These gay, lesbian and allied supporters’ combined philanthropy and political giving is estimated to be in excess of $100 million annually. Attendees also include leaders from the corporate and foundation community who are instrumental in funding LGBT causes, as well as many executive directors of LGBT organizations.

The Proof, that you must be rich to attend, 

Big Gay Inc. Event


Children should't be subject to life long medical choices

Very interesting statement, which I'm sure the #transinc community will claim to be Transphobic.. in natural. There is nothing bias ...
