Listening to the queer youth of color panel… and a few different times they’ve brought up one key point, both DADT (Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell) and marriage are campaigns that really just help adults. As the sharp youth from BAGLY (Boston’s youth group), “That’s for later. What are we going to do until then. We’re not going to get married if we’re homeless.”
And one more message from this great panel really resonates with me, “What are you doing to support LGBT of color youth leadership now?” Good question, gotta sit with that. What about you?
