Anti-gay minister Fred Phelps from Topeka, Kansas, is threatening to protest Kalamazoo Central High School’s performance of "The Laramie Project."   Phelps' Westboro Baptist Church has protested at Matthew Shepard’s funeral as well as the funerals of soldiers who have died in Iraq and Afghanistan. 

Please join the “Stop Hate in Kalamazoo Coalition” by responding to this hatred in a powerful and positive way that will benefit our local LGBT and allied youth.
