DESCRIPTION:S.F.'s May 17 IDAHO Rally: Bradley Manning = Pride Grand Marshal  
 \n\nMembers of Gays Without Borders and the Bradley Manning Support Network 
 are organizing a rally and speak out for this year's edition of 
 International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia on Friday, May 17th in 
 San Francisco, CA. IDAHO is an annual event marking the day the World 
 Health Organization removed homosexuality from its classification of 
 diseases in 1990.  \n\n    What: IDAHO Rally \n\n    Why: Declare Bradley 
 Manning the People's Grand Marshal of SF Pride   \n\n    When: Friday, May 
 17 Time: 6:00 - 7:00 PM  \n\n    Where: Harvey Milk Plaza, Market and 
 Castro Streets  \n\nThe reason why Gays Without Borders is proudly 
 partnering with the Bradley Manning Support Network for the rally is to 
 continue building on community support declaring him Grand Marshal of the 
 SF Pride parade. Manning is the accused gay U.S. Army Private accused of 
 divulging a massive amount of government documents to WikiLeaks. \n\nHe was 
 originally chosen to be a Grand Marshal at Pride, but that honor was 
 rescinded in secrecy by the board of directors of Pride, touching off a 
 global outcry condemning the rescission and unleashing a flood of lesbian, 
 gay, bisexual and transgender solidarity for Manning.  \n\nLGBT activists 
 and straight allies will gather at Harvey Milk Plaza on Friday with 
 enormous colorful banners demanding freedom for Manning and global gay 
 solidarity. There will be an open mike session for people to comment about 
 the importance of IDAHO, the Pride board's rescission and express concerns 
 for Manning as he prepares for trial.\n\nAdditional IDAHO info here:
