 WHEN: 5:00 PM, Friday, October 1, 2004  September 24, San Francisco - A 
 coalition of primarily LGBT  organizations have come together to plan an 
 October 1 demonstration to  raise awareness about racism and other forms of 
 discrimination within  the San Francisco LGBT community. The theme is 
 "Speak Out Against  Racism  And Discrimination, Stand Up For Inclusion." 
 While many have worked for  years to create greater inclusion, recently 
 there has been a  groundswell  of people speaking out.  The coalition 
 embraces this moment to help  bring about real change and make a claim for 
 greater racial, gender,  age, class, and other forms of belonging among San 
 Francisco's LGBT  people.  The march strives to inspire ongoing action from 
 all in our  community-as individuals, workers, business owners, community  
 organizers, and leaders-to make San Francisco a truly welcoming  homeland  
 for all LGBT people.  Organizers include Black Rap, And Castro For All, 
 ANSWER, Asian Pacific  Islander Queer Women and Transgender Coalition, the 
 Harvey Milk  Democratic Club, the SF LGBT Pride Celebration Committee, and 
 the Gay  Asian Pacific Alliance. To date, over 20 other organizations have  
 joined  as co-sponsors, pledging to bring support and energy to this 
 powerful  event. Co-sponsors include: AIDS Emergency Fund, AIDS Housing 
 Alliance,  Alice B. Toklas Democratic Club, API Wellness, Bay Area American 
 Indian  Two Spirits, Breast Cancer Emergency Fund, Community United Against 
  Violence, Ellas En Accion, Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education
