It may be easy to forget that the less privileged members of that community have many other priorities besides marriage. What the LGBT movement <I>should</I> take away from Black Civil Right struggles is how dangerous it is for more privileged members of a community to receive rights and benefits, then abandon the fight for others of our group who are not as fortunate.PPR_Scribehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11595767225403599855noreply@blogger.com
