• What to say about the debacle around the celebrations of Martin Luther
King Jr.’s birthday? On the one hand, same-sex marriages are indeed a civil
rights issue, and the invited speaker, the Rev. Walter Fauntroy, pursues active
discrimination against gays and lesbians of all ethnicities when he joins his
voice to the anti-same-sex marriage Alliance for Marriage group. We wonder
what Fauntroy says about Bayard Rustin, the civil rights leader, gay man and
close associate of King’s who helped bring the principles of Gandhian nonvio-
lence to King’s attention. But just as importantly, African-American voices have
nowhere near the media attention or participation in the structures of power in
Eugene that white lesbian and gay activists do. The first vote of the city’s
Human Rights Commission, taken without discussion with the committee that
invited Fauntroy (or, apparently, anyone who identifies as African American),
showed a bizarre and troubling lack of attention to input from members of the
black community. We’re glad that committee chair Carmen Urbina revisited the
issue with far more attention to race relations. But the entire discussion is
painful, which doesn’t make it less necessary. Race, class, gender, sexuality, his-
torical oppression and the active attempts of Karl Rove and his gang to divide
(and conquer) civil rights leaders — those are large issues, ones which we should
all work on understanding. Working to end all oppression: Now that’s a goal we
can support. But we’ll admit that we don’t know everything about these issues,
and we’d truly like to hear from a variety of community voices. In the meantime,
on Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday, we’ll listen to Fauntroy but remember the
contributions of LGBT people of color like Rustin, Pat Parker, Langston Hughes,
Audre Lorde and James Baldwin.

After four years with Merrill Lynch on the East Coast, Jersey girl Alice Strong moved to
Eugene in 1971. She spent two years at the UO and then went into business. “I haven’t
worked for anyone else since ’74,” she notes. Strong’s vintage clothing store, Boogie
Blues, was “Eugene’s living room” from ’76 to ’84. In 1986 she began marketing other
people’s new products at home shows and flower shows. “I spent a couple years sleeping
in the car at state fairs,” she says. Four years ago, Strong bought the business of a client,
who made packets of easy-to-plant clay balls rolled with organic matter and flower seeds.
“My first order was for 30,000 pieces,” she says. “Tell me I wasn’t shocked!” A friend
hooked her up with a firm in Arizona that provides employment for disabled people.
