Like the Abrahamic religions, BUDDHISM does not universally approve of homosexuality: the Dalai Lama has said he believes it amounts to sexual misconduct for Buddhist practitioners. But even the Dalai Lama supports human rights for all people regardless of sexual orientation -- and many queers find that atmosphere of tolerance pervasive in the Buddhist community. This Way Out correspondent HEATHER KITCHING [of CITR's "Queer FM"] has the story of JASON COLANTONIO and JAN GRUE, two members of QUEER DHARMA, a Canadian queer Buddhist study group in VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6:40 [www.shambhala.org] SEGMENT #3 - "Generic" TWO CDs promo [voiced by LUCIA CHAPPELLE] . . . :45 [www.thiswayout.org] SEGMENT #4 - The small scenic town of OLYMPIA, WASHINGTON became a queer cultural mecca last month when artists, musicians, writers, filmmakers, and activists showcased their talents at HOMO A GOGO.
