Frontlines: The Latest from OutServe-SLDN

Our Very Own ‘Rabblerouser’

Congratulations to SLDN communications associate Jason Knight, who is among the 'rabblerousers' of this year's Out 100. Jason (pictured here, along with Lane Hudson, Joe Solmonese and Anthony Romero) has been chosen as "The Revolutionary" among this year's top 100 LGBT Americans. Jason, who served openly during a Navy deployment to Kuwait, came out in the military newspaper Stars & Stripes to challenge former Joint Chiefs Chairman Peter Pace's comments that gay troops were 'immoral.' In including him on this year's list, Out writes that: "Our first round of honorees for the 2007 Out 100 includes a pair of kingmakers putting the spoils of a software fortune to good use, a couple of heads of gay state (and one honorable daughter), plus a trio of troublemakers who just can't keep their mouths shut -- a quality we're particularly fond of, especially among royalty." You can see the full Out 100 list by picking up a copy of December/January issue of Out Magazine. Photo by Francois Rousseau for Out. - Steve Ralls
