Call to Action
The Metropolitan Community Church of Washington held a full house on Sunday, Sept. 28, for a "speak out" and memorial event for Tony Randolph Hunter. Some among the crowd of about 200 people wept as Tony Neville, a friend of Hunter's, sang "Lord I Need You Now." It was the same song Hunter and a small group of friends had heard together during the Black Family Reunion concert on the National Mall the same night of the attack, Sept. 7. By Yusef Najafi
Fund Run
It's once again time for Whitman-Walker Clinic's AIDS Walk Washington. Few could have imagined 22 years ago that the need to raise funds to combat HIV/AIDS would still be dire, particularly in the District. Couple that with the current economic woes, and one would imagine that Dave Mallory, director of the walk, would have his fundraising work cut out for him. But Mallory says this year's effort is in good shape. By Will O'Bryan

 Old and New Nashville
If any city truly has a soul, it would be Nashville, Tennessee's capital. While a notch on the country's "Bible Belt," it is a modern city with a deep history -- and of course, a strong love for music. It is also a city that many gays and lesbians call home. Along with straight allies, they're working hard to shape Nashville into a welcoming destination. And they are succeeding. By Troy Petenbrink
