Its not a job interview.

Its an interview for an article they are writing about the progression we've made for gay rights in Oregon.

beckyg · 13th Jul 2008, 12:12 PM

It went okay. He mostly wanted to know what it was like being a gay rights advocate in a small conservative community and if I have had any backlash from people. He asked about the discrimination incident that led to my giving testimony before the Oregon Senate. That type of stuff. I'll try to post the link when its published!

Beebo · 13th Jul 2008, 02:21 PM

wow, I don't think I have ever heard that story, about your testimony. Could you link me to somewhere where I could read it?

**EM68** · 13th Jul 2008, 02:27 PM

Great to hear. I would like to read the article when its out.
