TONIGHT

Wikileaks! A discussion, or possible shout-fest (crossing my fingers for this), about the meaning of terrorist group/journalist heroes/soon-to-be rock band Wikileaks will take place at the Seattle Public Library. (Seattle Central Library, 1000 4th Ave, 5 p.m. — 7 p.m., free)

SATURDAY

City council member Tom Rasmussen, honcho of the transportation committee and prominent supporter of the deep-bore tunnel, will this morning be at the Columbia City public library to answer questions about whatever you want. (Columbia City Branch Library, 4721 Rainier Ave. S., 10 a.m., free)

SUNDAY

At probably the best-smelling event of the week (if you completely love pine, like I do), the Arboretum Foundation’s “Gifts and Greens Galore” annual holiday sale will be selling decorations and cuttings of local flora. (Washington Park Arboretum, 2300 Arboretum Dr. E., 10 a.m., free)

    Gay and Lesbian Pride Month. On June 11, 1999, President William J. Clinton issued a presidential proclamation designating June as Gay and Lesbian Pride Month to mark the thirtieth anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising and the birth of the modern gay and lesbian civil rights movement. In that proclamation, the president said “…Since our earliest days as a nation, Americans have strived to make real the ideals of equality and freedom so eloquently expressed in our Declaration of Independence and Constitution. We now have a rare opportunity to enter a new century and a new millennium as one country, living those principles, recognizing our common values, and building on our shared strengths. I encourage all Americans to observe this month with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities that celebrate our diversity, and to remember throughout the year the gay and lesbian Americans whose many and varied contributions have enriched our national life.” The International Pride Theme for 2011 is “Pride Around the World.”
