[Kat Morgan]

FYI: Equality Maryland in conjunction with the National Black Justice
Coalition published a great resource addressing marriage equality from
an African American perspective. Jumping the Broom is online, and
downloadable for free:

NBJC is a civil rights organization dedicated to empowering Black
same-gender-loving, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered people.
The Coalition works with our communities and our allies for social
justice, equality, and an end to racism and homophobia.

Subject: [SPAM] - [MCP] "special rights" - Email found in subject


i remember hearing that the religious right pushed videos and other
materials in black churches that promoted the "gay rights are special
rights" idea.  it was my understanding that this terminology, initiated
by the religious right, gained a foothold and great credence in black
religious communities.  has anyone else heard this?  does anyone have a
source on this?
