If We Desire A Society Without Discrimination, Then We Must Not Discriminate Against Anyone In The Process Of Building This Society. If We Desire A Society That Is Democratic, Then Democracy Must Become A Means As Well As An End.

Every Gay Who Is In The Closet Is Ultimately A Threat To The Freedom Of Gays. I Don't Want To Seem Intolerant To Them And I Think We Have To Say That To Them With A Great Deal Of Affection, But Remaining In The Closet Is The Other Side Of The Prejudice Against Gays. Because Until You Challenge It, You Are Not Playing An Active Role In Fighting It.

I Would Say Except When I Have Been Attacked The Black Community Has Seldom Seen Fit To Even Mention The Gay Aspect. And Since When I Have Been Attacked I Have Usually Been Defended By The Black Community, I Would Say That The Black Newspapers Have Played It Very Straight. If I Was Attacked They Simply Published That I Was Attacked, If I Was Defended They Simply Said I Had Been Defended. But I Don't Think They Have Taken Any Effort At Maligning Me Or Maligning Gays Or Making Any Effort To Give To People Anything That Wasn't News.

Black Gay Activists Should Try To Build Coalitions Of People For The Elimination Of All Injustice.
