Separate is not equal

I will post later this week about why "Gay Marriage" and or "Civil Unions" is important. The indignity that my brother is being put through is beyond the pale. I will tell this story once I have his permission. If I don't get it I will tell it another way. His story could very easily be my story or the story of any GLBT person in most of our states. This nation still has second class citizens and I am one of them.

Separate has never been equal and it never will be. It wasn't under Jim Crow and it is not now under DOMA and DADT.

On this day / in this month when we celebrate pride the focus needs to be on civil/equal rights.

I'll be back
