The explosive growth of GLSEN/GSA groups on high school campuses is a huge step forward for the GLBT movements. It’s creating a huge pool of new activists untarnished by political compromise and willing to go the distance for full equality.
They are less than patient with candidates of the twin parties of bigotry, war and economic collapse and will carry those sentiments with them as they help reinvigorate our struggle for full equality.
