Pres
Messagefromthe
PrideFest 2016 is poised to become the largest and most visible LGBT event in our
region’s history. The LGBT community is experiencing unprecedented social and
political advances, giving us much to be grateful for and celebrate.
Our festival is unique. Each year Hampton Roads Pride and our partners present a
PrideFest that is at once cheerful, family-friendly, and authentic to the diverse and
distinguishing characteristics of our LGBT community. I am proud of the fashion in
which our community unites in a collaborative effort to produce the series of events that
comprise PrideFest 2016. Visibility is a critical and necessary element to any celebration
of our Pride and each year we organize ourselves to create a huge, public PrideFest
that honors our cultural heritage and reminds everyone in Hampton Roads that people
who identify as LGBT live here, work here, and are important members of this society.
We believe our continued efforts to demonstrate Pride and the rich diversity of our
community will result in improved inclusion, enhanced dignity, and more equality for all
people.
We are grateful for Hampton Roads Pride’s many partners and supporters whose
generous contributions make these events possible, especially our presenting partners:
Decorum Furniture, Newport News Shipbuilding, and WHRO Public Media. Many
businesses and individuals have demonstrated their support for our region’s LGBT
community by investing in Hampton Roads Pride. Please take a moment to review our
extensive lists of partners and thank them for their support, especially by patronizing
their businesses. One of our most effective advocacy tools is our enormous spending
power; we hope you will remember to support those who support you!
Our 2016 theme is “Love Unites.” Following last year’s landmark Supreme Court
decision that equalized marriage across the United States, we have been united by
love and fellowship. While marriage equality is a huge achievement, we have a very
long way to go until we achieve full equality. Right here in Virginia, a person can lawfully
be denied housing or employment on the basis of their sexual orientation or gender
identity. Despite our successes, members of our community continue to experience
harassment, bullying, and other forms of discrimination simply because of their identity.
We must remain united in our service to equality and never rest on our victories,
however monumental they might seem.
On behalf of the Board of Directors and membership of Hampton Roads Pride, we
want to thank you for your support. For 28 years, we’ve celebrated Pride together
because we recognize the dignity and equality of all people and the importance of this
endeavor to advance those values. Our Hampton Roads LGBT community is vibrant
and strong; I’m excited for our bright future together.
Sincerely,
Michael Berlucchi
President

PRIDE GUIDE 2016
Hampton Roads Pride to Award 2016
Scholarship to Honor Slain Bangladeshi
LGBT Activist Xulhaz Mannan
by Danny Epperson
Hampton Roads Pride will award one of its scholarships this year to honor the life and legacy of Xulhaz
Mannan. This scholarship will be awarded at PrideFest
2016 at Town Point Park on Saturday, June 18, 2016.
Monday, April 25, 2016, Xulhaz Mannan and his close
friend were brutally murdered in Dhaka, Bangladesh. A
group of armed assailants linked to Al-Qaeda claimed
responsibility. Mannan worked for the U.S. Agency
for International Development and was the editor of
Roopbaan, the country's only LGBT magazine, and
had helped organize a rally for LGBT youths called
The Rainbow Rally on April 14, the Bengali New Year.
According to the Associated Press, the men were targeted because they were "pioneers of practicing and
promoting homosexuality."
"He was the kind of person willing to fight for what he
believed in, someone ready to stand up for his own
rights and the rights of others," USAID Administrator
Gayle Smith said in a statement.
Hampton Roads Pride president Michael Berlucchi
said, "This tragic news hit us hard and we felt strongly
we needed to respond with something positive in the
face of this injustice, however small it might be in comparison. Hampton Roads Pride is involved in much of
the same advocacy work as Mr. Mannan. It's terrifying to
know that simply being an authentic person and an advocate for equality could have deadly consequences."
This gruesome tragedy highlights the treacherous
global landscape for LGBT people and the deadly
threats faced by those who have the courage to come
out in repressed societies and cultures.
Much of Mannan's family lives in Virginia Beach, including his nephew, Raj Islam. Raj Islam is a Captain
with Virginia Beach Emergency Medical Services and
an appointed member of the City of Virginia Beach
Human Rights Commission. Much like his uncle, Raj Islam is a passionate advocate for justice, equality, and
human rights in his community, including LGBT equality. Raj Islam and his wife Korinne are PrideFest 2016
supporters and donors.
Dr. Charles Ford, co-chairman of Hampton Roads Pride's
Scholarship Committee said this action would demonstrate "solidarity with our brothers/sisters in Islamic and
Asian countries where LGBT folks are being killed for
being who they are. This is an appropriate recognition
of a martyr in that struggle for equality before the law."

PRIDE GUIDE 2016
Billy
Gilman
Gilman burst onto the national stage in 2000 releasing
the hit single “One Voice.” His debut album was certified double platinum in the United States, and he was
included in the Guinness Book of World Records for
being the youngest singer to ever reach #1 on the Billboard Top Country Album charts. He has sold five million albums worldwide and garnered awards and nods
from the Academy of Country Music, the Country Music
Association, Billboard Magazine, and the American Music Association.
Now 25, Gilman is eager to come back and share his
new music and his new sound with his fans. “It took me
a good while to figure out exactly who I was, musically
speaking. As a little kid, sometimes I was just told what
to sing. But now I have enjoyed coming into my own
and discovering what it really is that I want to sing. And I
think that my fans will be pleasantly surprised with what
they hear.”
Gilman is also mindful of the need to be patient with his
career. “Music is my life, and it is always what I will be
doing with my life. But I understand, given my unusual
history, that the road back is not going to be short and
easy. I will have to earn my way back into this business—
one fan at a time. And that’s exactly how it should be.”
“Say You Will” is the first solo single that Gilman has released since 2008 “Having had a lot of success in this
business at a really young age was truly a blessing. But
it also puts me in a unique and challenging situation as
a young adult—trying to reintroduce myself to country
fans now that I look and sound a lot different than I did
just 7 or 8 years ago.”
In 2012, Gilman made waves by recruiting 18 fellow
country superstars to collaborate on a charity single
called The Choice to benefit the Soles4Souls charity.
Proceeds from the song, which included Keith Urban,
Alan Jackson, Reba McEntire, Josh Turner, and Rodney
Atkins, placed shoes on tens of thousands of barefoot
children around the world.

PRIDE GUIDE 2016
Betty Who
interests,” says Who of her childhood. “My first tape
was Britney Spears and I know every single word to ‘No
Strings Attached’ by N Sync. But I had this cello that I
started playing when I was four, and I played a lot of
classical music until I was 18, so I’d be dancing in my
room to ‘Genie In A Bottle’ and then I would go to orchestra rehearsal.”
“I’ve always been the type of person who will tell you
everything and put myself out there totally unglossed,”
says Betty Who. “Writing is therapeutic in that way. I
want other people to be able to hear a song and say,
‘That’s how I felt but was too afraid to say it.’ And that’s
the beauty of music, you can really say anything you
want with a catchy hook.”
Therein lies the magic of Betty Who and her explosive
rise to fame last year on the strength of her breakout
debut EP, ‘The Movement.’ Her songs exorcise vulnerabilities and weaknesses, reclaiming them as anthems of
joy and independence. Lead single “Somebody Loves
You” debuted at #4 on Spotify’s Most Viral list, racking
up more than six million streams and earning her raves
from BuzzFeed and Perez Hilton to SPIN and Nylon,
along with spreads in Elle (who called her “your next
pop obsession”), Cosmo, and more. TIME named her
one of 14 To Watch in 2014, NY Mag described her as
a mix of “early Madonna…Katy Perry and Robyn, with
spunk and confidence,” and Billboard hailed her “shimmering tracks…and arresting pop textures.”
To call the EP an unexpected triumph would be an understatement, though, especially considering it was initially released independently. The grassroots success
of the music, fueled primarily by word of mouth online
from a passionate fanbase and Who’s undeniable charisma as a frontwoman in her ecstatic live shows, led to
a deal with RCA, who released her follow-up EP, ‘Slow
Dancing,’ which debuted at #1 on the iTunes Pop Chart.
Now, as Who prepares to release her forthcoming debut LP, perform on Late Night with Seth Meyers, and
join Katy Perry on tour, she finds herself a far cry away
from her roots as a classical cellist growing up half a
world away in Australia. “I had these dueling musical
Who earned acceptance to the prestigious Interlochen
Center of the Arts in Michigan, where she excelled in
the rigorous classical program. On a trip to Boston
during her senior year to audition for the Berklee College of Music, Who was introduced to Peter Thomas,
who would become integral to her career months later
when she returned to enroll in the school. “He came to
me right before he withdrew from Berklee and said we
should mess around in the studio and see what happens,” Who remembers. “I think from that day forward
we spent almost every night at our engineer’s apartment, all crammed around the computer talking about
songs and what we wanted and what we didn’t want.
We did a lot of discovering who we were, and Peter became one of my best friends.”
Though it was never their intention, the result of those
late night sessions was ‘The Movement’ EP, and the
reaction to the music confirmed that they indeed had
something special on their hands.
“We basically made a name for ourselves with people
who were just genuine music fans,” says Who. “They
wanted to see the underdog succeed because I was an
independent artist.”
If anything, signing with RCA has only encouraged Who
to double down on those endearing qualities that made
her such a rising independent star in the first place. The
‘Slow Dancing’ EP, her second collaboration with Thomas, opens with “Heartbreak Dream,” an 80?s-inspired
pop masterpiece that works audiences up into a dancing frenzy live. “Alone Again” is a Prince-esque gem that
poured out in just a few hours during what Who describes as a “Beyonce moment” of self-empowerment,
while “Giving Me Away” is such a vulnerable, personal
statement that she wasn’t sure if she could ever publicly
perform it. But that’s what makes her Betty Who, that
vulnerable musical alchemy by which she turns deep,
emotional, sometimes painful moments into cathartic
bursts of abandon and collective bliss. On the eve of
completing her debut LP, one thing is abundantly clear:
Betty Who still has a lot more magic up her sleeve.
