We Need, In Every Community,

My Activism Did Not Spring From Being Black...the Racial Injustice That Was Present In This Country During My Youth Was A Challenge To My Belief In The Oneness Of The Human Family.

The Only Weapon We Have Is Our Bodies, And We Need To Tuck Them In Places So Wheels Don't Turn

My Activism Did Not Spring From My Being Gay, Or, For That Matter, From My Being Black. Rather, It Is Rooted Fundamentally In My Quaker Upbringing And The Values That Were Instilled In Me By My Grandparents Who Reared Me.

Gays Are Beginning To Realize What Blacks Learned Long Ago: Unless You Are Out Here Fighting For Yourself Then Nobody Else Will Help You. I Think The Gay Community Has A Moral Obligation To Continue The Fight.

Surely, I Must At All Times Attempt To Obey The Law Of The State. But When The Will Of God And The Will Of The State Conflict, I Am Compelled To Follow The Will Of God.
