East Texas PFLAG had a wonderful time hosting the 2012 Soulforce Equality Ride on Saturday, March 31st. Soulforce is a national non-profit that works nonviolently to end religious and political discrimination and prejudice against Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ) people. The Equality Riders attended an informal informational activity at the Tyler Rose Garden where they spoke with representatives of East Texas PFLAG, Longview PFLAG and Project TAG - Tyler Area Gays. They then enjoyed a home cooked meal and later presented an educational and entertaining community program at The Tyler Unity Center. Following a reception hosted by Project TAG the riders retired to the homes of various community members for the evening. The riders returned to the Equality Ride Bus on Saturday morning and were given a warm send off-- including a box of snacks for the road provided by TJC Straights and Gays for Equality-- on their journey to New Orleans and beyond.
