A Love-In, To Spite The Hate
By Douglas Calhoun
A month of public and private uproar and controversy over so many issues its hard to even pick one. Bullied gay youth doing the unspeakable; a dysfunctional homophobe running to be the executive of our state; a series of attacks both physical and metaphorical, its all very surreal in 2010. On the heels of Monday’s coming out day, remember that you stand on the shoulders of many brave queer giants. We aren’t done changing minds and hearts. Something is a brewing and we’ve got to create positive peaceful change where we can. It does get better, but as it turns out, we aren’t done yet.
