Fwd: Homophobia and Horse Carriage Drivers Sent from my iPad Begin forwarded message: > From: Allie Feldman, NYCLASS > Date: June 27, 2014 7:07:43 PM EDT > To: Susan Lewin > Subject: Homophobia and Horse Carriage Drivers > > > > Susan -- > > This week yet another disturbing video emerged of a horse carriage driver calling a concerned passerby a faggot, simply because he asked if its legal to tie your horse to a pole with a rope in midtown traffic. The incident drew the attention and outrage of many, including NYC fashion legend Tim Gunn of Project Runway, who also happens to be a champion for animal rights. > > March with us in the Pride Parade! > > Sadly, this drivers behavior is not an isolated incident. > > Tim Gunn spoke out, sending a letter to Mayor Bill de Blasio demanding an end to this industry that is cruel and abusive to both people and animals. Carriage drivers are supposed to behave like ambassadors -- not embarrassments -- for our city! > > Help us amplify Mr. Gunns message -- support justice and equality for all beings (two legged and four legged!) -- by joining us at this Sundays Pride Parade. > > We will have a banner, t-shirts and signs, or you can bring your own. (And, of course, a few horse costumes!) > > Can we count on you to march with us on Sunday? > > Parade line-up for our group begins at 2:00 PM. We will meet at 37th Street between Madison and Park Avenues in Section 11, Group 10. > > RSVP here. > > Thank for all you do for animals, > > -Allie > NYCLASS > > > P.S.
