Equality Forum is out with a detailed list of the 2012 Icons for LGBT History Month (October, after all, is LGBT History Month). Check out who was chosen:
As usual when it comes to lists like this, there will be some folks vocalizing about who was or wasn't chosen. In a general sense, I like the list. And I especially would like to see more lgbt children viewing this video so that they can know that their God-given sexual orientation is not a curse, but a blessing. Anything which can inspire lgbt children to know that success is not the enemy of being openly gay is always a plus in my book.
By all mean, please let me know- via the comments section - who you think should have made the list. And why.

It is nice to see some current faces like Jodi Foster. It is important for all kids to know LGBT history. May would be suprised. I hope some are inspired.
