Adam Britt’s Equality Ride Journey

Hi y’all!

I am not sure anyone reads this anymore, but I just wanted to give folks a tiny update about what i am up to currently.

Right now I am doing a lot of work with a local non profit group, The Center for Artistic Revolution, CAR. I have working with them for quite a while now and owe more to this group than I will ever be able to return. If everyone could check out the website and sign up for the e-mailing list, that would be great and you would be able to keep up to date with all of CAR’s news.

Thanks!

Love,

Adam Britt

Due to the hundreds of spam comments I get a day here, I have added a randomized (simple) math equation that is required for you to answer, to comment. It will be easy, adding or multiplying 3 numbers and will make commenting more fun.

Sorry about this, but it’s the easiest way for me to handle all of this spam.

Love,

-Adam

Join us for an interactive night with Soulforce Equality Riders! Come say farewell, learn more about the ride, and be entertained by local artists!

In March 2007, fifty-six young activists will board two buses and begin a two month long journey that will take them to thirty-two colleges that have policies banning the enrollment of openly Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer students. Through dialogue with administrators, faculty and students, the young activists of the 2007 Equality Ride will make clear the harmful effects of the false notion that homosexuality is a “sickness and a sin.” To make public their case for equality, the young activists on the Equality Ride will hold vigils, Bible studies, class discussions, community forums, and press conferences.

Amanda Harris, Kourt Osborn, Adam Britt, and Jeremy Gabbard will embark from Arkansas on March 1 to seek dialogue with these schools and spread a message of hope and healing. Join the riders for a fundraiser send-off event!

Free food available, tip money at the bar will benefit the Equality Ride. The Equality Riders would greatly appreciate your support and donations.

www.EqualityRide.com has been updated for the 2007 ride. I encourage you to visit the new website, as it has information about the 2007 routes and many photos and stories from the 2006 ride. Also, I hope that you will look at this page, which briefly covers the Freedom Ride Tradition. Not only were the Freedom Rides an incredibly important event in our history that many people are not educated on, these Freedom Rides are also what inspired the first Equality Ride, one year ago.

With all my love,

Adam

The bus routes have been announced! The route for the East Bus can be found here and the route for the West Bus can be found here! If you have any friends or family along one of these routes and you think that they would be willing or able to help in some way, please let me know. Their are many ways that people can help (including just being a friendly face), so please e-mail me and I can send that information off the correct person!

Love,

Adam

If you feel inclined to do so, which I hope you do, you can visit this website to sponsor me. The Equality Ride is a very expensive journey to complete and any sort of help would be greatly appreciated! Knowing that other people are out there, supporting the other riders and my self, if very comforting and I hope that you will decide that this is a worth while cause to donate to.

Love,

Adam
