Mark Daniel Snyder, Founder

Queer Liberation, Not Assimilation!

Welcome to QueerToday.com. This site has evolved from a small resource for queer youth into a thriving web community for queer identified activists and our allies worldwide. We formed the largest ever protest of Focus on the Family, broke countless queer news stories, planned anti-war protests, and more. We continue, as a community, to build coalitions and fight for social justice for all.

I am currently residing in San Francisco with my partner Wing. I work for a non-profit serving the Bay Area's LGBTQ-headed families. Before that I worked at an organization that sued pharmaceutical companies, and before that The Boston Alliance of LGBTQ Youth. I've served on the board of Greater Boston PFLAG, and spoke to thousands of high school students about LGBTQ issues through PFLAG, SpeakOut, and the Department of Public Health of Massachusetts.

Please feel free to contact me personally to book speaking engagements.

When Dad Goes to Jail Part 2



The holidays are difficult for those of us with family members and friends who are in jail cells. It has been over a year since my father was first arrested in a police sting seeking men who hire male sex workers.

He has been placed in his final jail which is a four hour drive away from where most of my family resides. He is able to call me collect now, which is much easier than before. I can e-mail him and they are printed and delivered to him.

He gets out of his cell to at… Continue

Health Care Bill: Fix it or Kill it!



The current health care bill will force citizens to purchase corporate health care plans without the option of a public plan or the expansion of medicare. We need a single-payer not-for-profit health care plan in order to provide to everyone. Continue

Contact Dockers over their Sexist, Anti-Feminine Ad Campaign


Contact Dockers at 1-866-290-6064. This advertisement is seen in print and on billboards in San Francisco. To suggest that men should "wear the pants" is offensive to women and anyone who doesn't live in the last century. The advertisement also tears down men for their involvement in anything that society m… Continue

Marriage Movement: Epic Fail?

The gay-rights movement should abandon its priority of fighting for marriage equality. It is difficult to hear, but after over 100 million dollars spent on marriage campaigns that have failed and done little to lift up our whole community, it is time to refocus.

While the marriage movement may have galvanized many new… Continue

Thanks for sharing this. Cool!

Oh my! This is just so stupid and outrageous. Why do people have to conform all the time, why can't we all be different. To be honest I would find Laura Jobe's hair far more of a distraction in class but I wouldn't insist she cut it cos it suits her…

I have to agree with Simon on this one. It cuts right to the chase under the guise of a funny presentation that just sneaks up on you.

Thanks for the welcome. I just got home from a reception held by the guys from Bilerico, the gay blog, my favorite gay blog. They are here covering the International Conference of Gay & Lesbian Leadership Institute. Today, the gay Mayor of Berlin, Germany was the luncheon speaker. Anyhow, I did get to meet & talk with both Bill & his partner, Jerame. Great guys. Thanks again for the invite to post on my "causes". I'm heading to Puerto Rico for a couple months, and will decide what direction I will go in so far as activity this coming year. It is way too confusing going in two directions. I think that the HIV/AIDS cause will be my cause next year.
