Nashville couple unharmed by Denmark bomb scare

Out & About Newspaper is reporting that the World OutGames in Denmark were rocked by a bomb attack today. Nashville couple Sam Felker and Keith Little, who are participants in the games, were present but unharmed during the explosions. The Out & About story links to Sam and Keith's blog that describes their experience.

Sam is a member of the Metro Board of Health and also serves as one of TEP's district captains in the effort to pass the non-discrimination ordinance.

Everyone at TEP is glad that Sam and Keith are all right and wish them luck in the remainder of the games. But it's very sad that an apparent hate attack has disrupted these events and put people from our city in danger.

Felker appointed to Board of Health

The Tennessee Equality Project would like to congratulate Sam Felker who was appointed to the Board of Health at tonight's Metro Council meeting. A partner at Bass Berry & Sims, Sam has also been a strong advocate of equality issues. His partner Keith was there at his side as the vote was taken.

Sam is a friend and someone I consider a mentor. He'll offer a good perspective and great service to the City on the Board of Health.
