Nov 14, 2007 Quickie Link: Gay Rights Advocate Found Dead
By vanrozenheim

(USA) - Ken Baker, a lifelong advocate for Gay rights and one of the founders of the statewide Gay rights organization Equality Alabama, died Sunday morning at age 50. The cause of death is not yet known. Unity United Church of Christ recently awarded Baker the Crystal Cross for his advocacy work. He was recognized specifically for his role in starting Equality Alabama and Communities of Faith for Full Inclusion. "He's sure going to be missed around here," said longtime friend and colleague Lynn Shaw, who is a past president of the Montgomery Chapter of Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG).
