kentuckylgbt.org - Kentucky's LGBT Community - University Outreach Director

William Anderson
University Outreach Director

Mr. Anderson is currently a student at the University of Kentucky pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree in Vocal Performance.  He is very active in the music and theatre world, and played several leading roles in operas and musicals.  Mr. Anderson is very proud to be a part of KEF, and working for what he believes in.  His drive and determination for music and the stage build him up more and more each day.

Mr. Anderson is working towards singing on the Metropolitan Opera stage, not only for himself, but to those who said it couldn’t be done.  This is what we are all working towards, and he is going to bring just that to Kentucky Equality Federation and Marriage Equality Kentucky.  Let’s do it for those who said it couldn’t be done.

Bullying, violence, and discrimination are all things we face in Kentucky public and private schools. From the University of Kentucky, Eastern Kentucky University, Northern Kentucky University, Murray State University, etc. this group is for all current students and alumni at Kentucky Universities who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, questioning their sexual orientation, or our straight allies.

This group is operated by the University Outreach Director of Kentucky Equality Federation to facilitate communication, cooperate, and support between the Commonwealth's colleges and universities.

ABOUT OUR UNIVERSITY OUTREACH DIRECTOR:
At Kentucky Equality Federation (who is also the sponsor of Marriage Equality Kentucky), Outreach Directors focus on educating the public about LGBTIQ issues (including marriage equality) within targeted communities – providing information and sharing our message in specific ways, as well as contributing information regarding their communities to our statewide organization. The Outreach Directors carry the responsibility for reaching members of the larger LBGTIQ community that too often have not been included, either in positions of leadership or in public education.

Every day, LGBTI people are denied many of the freedoms enjoyed by other Americans. We are committed to secure full equality for the LGBTI community of the Commonwealth. Your support is critical to our success. Please fund our efforts to end discrimination in Kentucky.

The origins of the Federation can be traced back to November 01, 2005 when Jordan Palmer created a political group of MySpace.com to discuss gay politics in Kentucky.  The group reached over 500 members within 3 months and was named “Kentucky Equal Rights.”

On March 22, 2006, Jordan Palmer and Nick Herweck organized a protest at the Governor’s Mansion to protest funding to a religious Baptist school in Southern Kentucky that had expelled a gay student. The protest, held when 20,000 people visited the Capitol for the Governor’s Annual Derby Breakfast made headlines across Kentucky, and the nation.  Soon thereafter, Kentucky Equality was incorporated as Federation for Kentucky Equality, Inc.

Today, Federation for Kentucky Equality is a statewide organization that reaches nearly 11,000 individuals and 6 groups across the Commonwealth of Kentucky and is a member of the International Lesbian & Gay Association.
