For some reason, I feel very compelled to post this. Though we have come leaps and bounds in the fight for equal rights between Peoples of different race, we have not come far enough. There is still no equality... and I can't help but get the gay rights movement out of my mind. There was a time when people... well white people... did not see any problem with segregation. And now, though the fight has a long way to go, I tell myself that people will follow that same path in the walk toward gay rights.
It makes me incredibly sad, that so many of my friends are not given the honor of marry the man or woman he or she loves. There is no sense. Even if one's religion believes against it, why is it still illegal? This is supposedly a free country? I don't understand.
Anyway, below this iconic speech by Martin Luther King, Jr. is an interview talking about the intersection between "civil rights" and "gay rights"
Please take the time to watch.
