COLAGE, the national organization for people with one or more LGBTQ parents, has a great new video out chronicling the history of the organization and the first generation of COLAGEers—young people who were finding their voices and building a community of support and activism. From the video: “We had these stories that as soon as […]
After a few weeks hiatus, I’m back with a new vlog about LGBT parenting books and videos of 2010—great for holiday gifts! (Those of you who prefer your gifts guides in text could try my earlier written post.) Mombian: She Got Me Pregnant, 12-16-2010 Uploaded by drudolph. – Watch more LGBT videos. (If the embedded
Well, not quite raining. But seeing two of us on screen at one time (aside from fictional couples) is still something of an event. Barely a week after CBS’s The Talk had actor and gay dad Neil Patrick Harris as a guest, they had chef and lesbian mom Cat Cora on as well, talking with actor

Tune in to PBS tonight for Off and Running, a film about lesbian parents raising a multiracial family. It’s part of “POV Adoption Stories,” itself a subset of the POV (Point of View) documentary series. If you can’t catch it tonight, it will be streamed on the Web for three months starting tomorrow. I haven’t
Funny how things happen. Just days after my family and I ate at Cat Cora’s new restaurant in Disney World, I find out (thanks, Debbie!) that she’s on the cover of the current issue of Working Mother. While it’s just her and one of her sons on the cover, there’s a nice picture of her,
