out magazine's power 50: really really white!


Out Magazine recently released is fifth annual Power 50 list, naming the most powerful and influential LGBT individuals in America. Just observation: where the hell are all the people of color? Seriously, with the exception of Perez Hilton, this list is bright white.

What, not even going to throw a bone to our elder statesman George Takei? I'm not sure what factors determined who made the list, but intentional or not, the disheartening point has been made: it really sucks to be a minority within a minority. (Thanks, Marq.)
