"OBSERVE this month by fighting prejudice and discrimination in your life and everywhere it exists."

Those are the words of President Barack Obama who has officially declared June as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride Month.

June is usually celebrated as Gay Pride month around the country because of The Stonewall Riots that happened in that month in 1969.

trickle up

A trickle a day could cause a tidal wave.

Trickle Up tries things in a uniquely different way—since Trickle Down Economics hasn't quite reached the folks they reach. It's a group that helps the very poor (think, people surviving on less than a buck a day) get out of poverty. They provide business training, seed capital grants (not loans) and support to help people launch a microenterprise.
