Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr.
hosted his annual LGBT and Allies
Pride Celebration on June 10, where
he honored community leaders Kim
Watson, Michael Beau Ivory, Jeannie
Sol and Marie Spivey.
Jose Ramon, creator of The White
Shirt Project, was posthumously recognized
as well. The White Shirt Project
is a series of black and white photographs
that shed light on the stigma
surrounding Mental Health. Ramon
passed away March 14, from Amyotrophic
Lateral Sclerosis at 54-yearsold
and left a lasting impact on the
LGBT community.
“I am honored to host this annual
event during Pride Month to reaffirm
our solidarity with the LGBT community,”
Diaz said. “These honorees have
not only been great advocates in addressing
the needs of our LGBT community
in The Bronx, but role models
for all of us as well. I stand with our
LGBT brothers and sisters in working
towards a more inclusive future for everyone.”
