                             THIS WAY OUT
             the international gay & lesbian radio magazine
                Program #1,003, distributed 06/18/07
          (hosted by Greg Gordon and produced with Lucia Chappelle)
             The performance lives and love of Lily Tomlin;
                Boston's queer women coalesce with Pride;
  Colombia couples score a Latin American "first," marriage equality
 splits the Swedish government, Massachusetts lawmakers reject hetero
 nuptial exclusivity, two dads break ground in Western Australia, Sao
  Paulo is again the world's Proudest city, and more global GLBT news

* In "NewsWrap": Colombia is poised to become the first nation in Latin 
America to legally recognize same-gender couples, but Sweden's coalition government 
is unraveling over the Prime Minister's refusal to back legislation upgrading 
"civil partnerships" to marriage... Massachusetts lawmakers reject a proposal 
to put a constitutional amendment banning same-gender marriage on the 
ballot... a gay couple's landmark adoption of a baby boy in Western Australia has the 
country buzzing... Pride parades in San Jose and West Hollywood, California, 
Calgary, Alberta, and Brisbane, Queensland, survives rock-throwing protesters 
in Bucharest, Romania, and sets a new world attendance record in Sao Paulo, 
Brazil... and other GLBT news from around the world (written by GREG GORDON, and 
reported this week by CHRISTOPHER GAAL and DON LUPO).

* Just days before the state legislature voted down a threat to marriage 
equality in Massachusetts, BOSTON's LGBT community celebrated Pride with a bang.  
Paving the way for the mass march, at least a thousand people took to the 
streets the night before for the annual DYKE MARCH.  HELEN MATTHEWS, who's known 
locally as "Homefries," hit the streets to talk with organizers and 
participants about building community, and challenging militarism and trans-phobia.

* Why is June the traditional month of queer pride?  "The Stonewall 
Rebellion" answers that question in a "RAINBOW MINUTE" (produced by JUDD PROCTOR & 
BRIAN BURNS at WRIR-FM in Richmond, Virginia and read by DUSTIN RICHARDSON).

* LILY TOMLIN is one of world's foremost comediennes, with the prestigious 
Mark Twain Prize for American Humor among her many honors.  She's created the 
ever-so-"truthful" Edith Ann, the telephone company's memorable Ernestine, and a 
host of other off-beat characters during her long career on television, in 
movies, and on stage.  In anticipation of her Pride weekend performances June 
21st and 22nd in MINNEAPOLIS, Tomlin chatted with host DIXIE TREICHEL of 
KFAI-FM’s "Fresh Fruit" Collective, and members LEIGH COMBS, JOHN TOWNSEND, and 
NORMAN STRIZEK.
