Gay Rights, Special Rights - A nauseating history lesson




Take enterprising anti-gay film company, footage from various parades, comments taken out of context, and you have a history lesson which is sorely needed.


Gay Rights, Special Rights - which is still selling in various places - is a vile documentary created by Jeremiah Films in conjunction with the Traditional Values Coalition in the 1990s. It was partly designed to drive a wedge between the lgbt and African-American communities.

Though this video is over 20 years old, it needs to be viewed and discussed. It needs to be particularly viewed by the young lgbts so they can get a sense of where we have come from.

Things have gotten much better for us, but we should never forget how it was and the fact that those who wanted it that way are still around.
