The subject matter here forms the essence of my recently released biographical novel, Broken Saint. It is based on my forty-year friendship with a gay man, and chronicles his internal and external struggles as he battles for acceptance. You can learn more about the book at www.eloquentbooks.com/BrokenSaint.html.<br /><br />Mark Zamen, authorAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553815707336774090.post-1960407171130550432009-05-30T21:43:28.184-04:002009-05-30T21:43:28.184-04:00@Dawn: This issue really gets me riled up because ...@Dawn: This issue really gets me riled up because some ppl think there's some kind of "suffering" hierarchy.

As Newton pointed out, it could be the G&L community is the most oppressed group.<br /><br />In any case, what i don't like when I hear ppl of color talking as if they have exclusivity to oppression is that it blinds us to the reality of The Cause. pain is pain.<br /><br />Period.<br /><br />If you want to talk about that your pain was bigger than my pain, or I was oppressed more than that other person -- that's a losing argument. shit, if that was the case, the American Indian was practically wiped off the face of the planet, their culture almost erased, their land taken from them.<br /><br />the first instances of bio warfare was enacted against the Indian.<br /><br />It shouldn't follow, then that Indians should go around telling black and brown ppl they have no real stake or cause for grievance because they didn't suffer as much as the Indian.<br /><br />That's what the Massa wants. And we do his bidding when we go that route.Eddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09579585545543464648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6553815707336774090.post-55957249071072148902009-05-29T15:06:24.575-04:002009-05-29T15:06:24.575-04:00This was powerful -- lots of people would do thems...This was powerful -- lots of people would do themselves a service to read this. <br /><br />No matter what you believe about homosexuality, homosexuals are people first and foremost.

There was a demonstration here in Memphis of Black preachers and one White preacher agianst anti-discriminatory laws in the hiring of LGBTs to work for the city of Memphis. Ironically, this demonstration fell on the same day prop 8 was uphelp and the announcement of the Sotomeyor nomination.<br /><br />Just sad man...RiPPahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08876723972974044402noreply@blogger.com
