Where We Live: Portland Gay Men’s Chorus

Where We Live: Portland Gay Men’s Chorus | #ILoveGay | Scoop.it

A group of gay men gathered to sing in 1980 and the rest is history

Lamar Ross's curator insight, October 20, 2019 6:26 PM
I believe this is a great thing for the LGBT community in the music industry. It shows a sense of community and unity. I personally know some people that are stuck in the stone age and won't work with anyone who considers themselves apart of this community. This display of strength and togetherness is wonderful. The source is a major informational outlet, however not just for music. The source for this article is reliable being a national news source.
