"One of the things I've pointed out in my decade fighting for transgender rights and in writing posts for this blog are the parallels between the African-American Civil Rights Movement of the 50's-60's and the Transgender Rights Movement."

That quote did not do a just summary of the article.  Just the opposite.  This one comes closer.

It's simply a drag performance that was in very poor taste and it's not correct to call it the 'equivalent of a KKK blackface show'.
FIGHT APATHY!, or don't...
