Another Black Gay Pride Cancelled! (New York City's)

Rod 2.0 scoops the entire blogosphere with the news that Pride In The City (New York City Black LGBT Pride) which was supposed to happen this weekend in the Big Apple, has been cancelled!

Billed as a "Rod 2.0 Exclusive," the first paragraph looks like this:

Only one day before it was scheduled to begin, New York City's popular black gay pride function, Pride in the City, has canceled events amidst a dramatic upheaval at its sponsoring agency, the HIV/AIDS group People of Color in Crisis (POCC). Rod 2.0 has exclusive details on the last-minute event cancellation and firing of former executive director Michael Roberson—including a lawsuit just filed against POCC, alleged financial improprieties, state and federal investigation, and, a possible possible criminal investigation.

Chile, run (do not walk!) to Rod's blog and read all the salacious details at his site.

I would note that the cancellation of New York City's Black Pride comes less than 4 weeks after Los Angeles' Black Pride event, At The Beach was also cancelled, 4 days before it was to be held on Saturday July 5th. It's not clear how many of the satellite events are also being cancelled in New York City, although it looks like more of them are not going to take place. See Rod 2.0 for more details...
