Here's a project we can get behind and we hope you will too! 

In the wake of 2009's documentary Outrage, which shined a light on closeted politicians actively legislating against the LGBT community, a new fictionalized film traces a similar story.

A Queen Without His Crown, written and directed by award winning filmmaker Carmen Palaez, targets those politicians that are "holding equality hostage in their closets."

Churches, as a rule, aren't taxed and as such they're supposed to keep their noses--and their money--out of political business, but it looks like a Catholic church in Washington state (where same-sex marriage will be on the ballot in November) is playing fast and loose with the law.

It's no secret that the Ali Forney Center, helmed by Instinct Leading Man Carl Siciliano, is one of our favorite organizations. They do consistent invaluable work providing shelter to homeless LGBT youth and working as advocates for LGBT youth and young adults.

In conjunction with their 10-year anniversary, they're also hosting their 3rd annual summer fundraising benefit, Oasis, with Barclays acting as the presenting sponsor for the 2nd year in a row.

Now who could be the host for such an auspicious occasion? How about the one and only, Parker Posey?!
