Always looking for a way to bring something new and beautiful to a world where neither is noticed often, Jadiid (jAH-deed) was created. Fronted by songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Matthew Boll, this entity seeks to show people to not only listen but create. To not only hear but sing with, to join the choirComing off of their first ep recorded in a basement with the help of many friends, Jadiid is now a band of five people in a larger community of many. With thier roots in the city of Chicago they are preparing to record their LP starting in April.While commited to their own, they share music and life with these other great artists: Ben Abney, The Hudson Branch, Karl F. Kling, All That Noise For Feeling, Berry, Mi Ciudad Anhelada, Nate Henricks, Enoke, and A Midday Atlantic"O to have life henceforth a poem of new joys!To dance, clap hands, exult, shout, skip, leap, roll on, float on!To be a sailor of the world bound for all ports,A ship itself, (see indeed these sails I spread to the sun and air,)A swift and swelling ship full of rich words, full of joys."-Whitman

Can you equate the GLBT movement to the Civil Rights movement? Why or why not?
sarah.e.lu:
no, you can't equate them. while LGBTQ rights are civil rights, the movement is different than THE civil rights movement. i think it's messed up when people say it's the same to lend the LGBTQ movement legitimacy. it's like appropriating the struggles of POC. not cool. especially when the mainstream LGBTQ movement has its own problems with racism. so in short: i think equating them is really messed up.
sarah.e.lu:
they are related, i'm cool with that comparison. but saying they are the same is problematic.
Claudine:
NO! They are not the same and as a Black women I dare them compare the struggles Blacks (who built what we know as AMERICA) ENDURED in the Civil Rights Movement, to the struggle for Gay Rights. It is pathetic and they need to come up with another approach to getting the rights they seek and stop trying to capitalize on African American struggle.
