BOSTON — Over a thousand community and political activists representing the many stripes of the Rainbow Coalition jammed into a Boston University ballroom to honor Martin Luther King, Jr. at the Boston Rainbow’s annual awards banquet on Jan. 28th.

Lesbian-feminist activist Angela Bowen (R) received one of a dozen Constituency Council Awards from Mel King, founding member of the Boston Rainbow and former mayoral and congressional candidate, and Maxine Waters, the California Assemblywoman who was co-chair of Jesse Jackson’s presidential campaign effort in California. Bowen was citied for her active role in the national Coalition for Black lesbians and Gay's and for being “a visible role model and for speaking out for lesbians and gay rights in as loud a voice as she does for Black and women’s liberation.
