Photography by John Ganun. Produced by Brad Bilanin and the Open Artist Movement.

J. Howard Miller's iconic poster of Rosie the Riveter is the inspiration for the We Can Do It! campaign.

"We Can Do It! is a photo campaign to build solidarity and personal strength through positive messaging. The goal is to bring to life modern iconic individuals, by depicting them as powerful and not victims in support of the global LGBT movement worldwide."

Not only are these images hot. They are thought provoking with the ability to expand the viewer's idea of what being gay, lesbian, bi-sexual and transgender is in America. The stereo types of who can do what job are being rattled. With the issue of Don't Ask Don't Tell in debate these first wave of images show gay people out for all to see as service men. I look forward to seeing this campaign grow... I can imagine drag queen, Ru Paul in a nurses uniform, Ellen DeGeneres with a radio microphone, Chaz Bono in drag as his mom, Cher,.. The diversity of the LGBT community is a wealth to be explored and no matter the job; We Can Do It!
