The San Francisco LGBT Pride Celebration Committee and its board of directors have announced the slate of nominees for the public’s choice for Individual Community Grand Marshal, Organizational Community Grand Marshal and the Pink Brick, a faux award given to a detractor of the LGBT community, according to a press release.
Peter LaBarbera, president of the Naperville, Ill.-based organization Americans For Truth About Homosexuality (AFTAH), is up for the Pink Brick. On Feb. 12, he and a few other people held a counterprotest while LGBT activists demonstrated outside Chicago’s Holy Name Cathedral. AFTAH’s mission, according to its website, is “exposing and countering the homosexual activist agenda.”
Previously, LaBarbera was with the anti-gay group Culture and Family Institute.
