Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick has been a staunch advocate against gay marriage, defining marriage as a sacred institution between "a man and a woman." However, the recent admission of his extramarital affair has gay-rights advocates questioning how much he believes in the sacredness of marriage. Kilpatrick was allegedly spotted at a luxury resort with a woman identified as Carmen Slowsky, reports GayWired.com. This is the second time in the past two weeks that Kilpatrick was under fire for extramarital affairs. The first time was earlier this month when text messages between Kilpatrick and his former chief of staff Christine Beatty were uncovered by state officials.

Black employees at the Millennium Hotel in Times Square were fuming Wednesday after they spotted a voodoo doll hanging from a noose on a bulletin board, reports The New York Post. The voodoo dolls, which some employees saw as early as Monday and reported to the hotel's management team, were found hanging in a non-public area. "The union came in and all the employees stopped working and stood in the lobby of the hotel," Colin Taylor, a hotel cook and union delegate, told the the Post. A spokesperson for the hotel said the incident was being investigated. Check out the exclusive DiversityInc Noose Watch, which documents noose-hanging incidents across the United States.
