"The gay community often complains that there are not enough minority faces who are willing to come forward and join them in the fight for equality, but I differ in my opinion! One would only need to scan the internet and that search would reveal countless Black, Asian and Latino authors, bloggers, actors, dancers, singers, rappers, composers, newscasters, Senators, and Congressman and -women, Governors, Mayors, athletes, and the list goes on who are gay (or gay-friendly) who would have gladly lent their voices, talents, and time and support had they been approached."
