Ken Jones, left, joined Roma Guy, Diane Jones, and Cecilia Chung as the quartet accepted the Champion Award from Out and Equal Workplace Advocates at the organization's annual Momentum gala March 29 at the Westin St. Francis. The stories of the four San Francisco LGBT activists were included in "When We Rise," the ABC miniseries that was broadcast in late February and March. Screenwriter Dustin Lance Black, who created the program, which was partly based on Cleve Jones' memoir of the same name, was unable to attend the Out and Equal celebration.
