Halloween Amour From Atlanta’s Drag Godmother Diamond Lil

Posted on 25 October 2011. Tags: diamond lil, Fenuxe Magazine, Gay Atlanta


We’ve said it before, if longevity counts for anything, Diamond Lil deserves a bust of her likeness in the Gay Atlanta Hall of Fame. This southern belle moved from Savannah to Atlanta in 1965 and quickly became a player in the city’s then-underground drag scene. She headlined a drag show at Mrs. P’s, tucked away in the basement of the Ponce de Leon Hotel. She moved the act to Sweet Gum Head on Cheshire Bridge Road in the early ’70s, then onto Club Centaur. These clubs have since shut down.

In addition to her performances and a mid-’80s album release called The Queen of Diamonds, Diamond wrote for gay Atlanta magazines and newspapers like Sunset People, Cruise and Etc. For more go to http://www.fenuxe.com/tag/diamond-lil/]]>

Morality Without Gods – Fantasy or Possibility?
Monday, March 16th, 7PM

Georgia State University, Speakers Auditorium

At a time of broad controversy and debate over religion – on a scale unprecedented in recent times- Sunsara Taylor, Dr. Kenneth L. Samuel, and Martin Cowen will have an exchange on the question of God, morality, and the role of religion in society.  Can you be good without God?  Are beliefs in Gods obstacles or pathways to  understanding and changing the world and to the emancipation of humanity?
Panel:
Sunsara Taylor- Writer for Revolution newspaper and an uncompromising atheist.  Sunsara has recently been on a national campus speaking tour on the book, AWAY WITH ALL GODS – Unchaining the Mind and Radically Changing the World by Bob Avakian. (www.awaywithallgods.com)
Dr. Kenneth L. Samuel - Pastor of Victory for the World Church in Stone Mountain, Vice-Chair of the African American Leadership Council of the People for the American Way.
Martin Cowen – Founder of the Fellowship of Reason, founded in 1998, the Fellowship of Reason is the world’s first and only reason-based moral community.
Moderated by: Dr. James Ainsworth, Associate Professor of Sociology, Georgia State University
Discussion with panel to follow.
