Omari Hardy to be at Florida LGBTQ Virtual Conference

Lake Worth commissioner will be participating in a conference this weekend.

The conference is Saturday, Sept. 12 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. There is no registration fee.

Lake Worth Commissioner Omari Hardy is scheduled to participate in a panel discussion on intersectionality. Hardy, 30, recently emerged from a crowded field to capture the Democrat party’s nomination in Florida House District 88.

“That’s a term I hope to make more popular,” Hardy said of intersectionality. “Being Black and raised by two women who are also Black and gay, my struggle as a Black man is the same struggle as someone who is gay or a woman or someone who’s Jewish or Muslim. Our struggle for dignity intersects and what Republicans want to do is divide marginalized communities from each other by pitting Black and faith communities against the LGBTQ community.”

Hardy said he looks forward to ending those tactics and bringing change to state politics.

“We can’t have Democrats in Tallahassee who take the bait,” he said. “We have to push back and reframe the argument and all go work together.” [SouthFloridaGayNews]

Omari just doesn't realize yet...Tallahassee will not put up with his malarkey, a nice way of saying "bull shit."

His opponent said he was gay. Is he?

OMG! The 30 year old who may have never dated a woman, and gets engaged to an older woman is now the straight expert on gays?

His malarkey just keeps getting deeper.

@9:11--If you read her bio, you can see why Omari is sticking around her. He knows a "partner" when he meets one. Her background is very impressive in Democrat circles.
