It is amazing to see how quickly our community catapulted from grief to outrage over the passage of four anti-gay state amendments on November 4. Tens of thousands of LGBT people and allies have marched in the streets to demand an end to the bigotry and hatred used by right-wing religious extremists to harm our families and fill their coffers.
Some people are calling this Stonewall 2.0. I call it the kick in the ass that the LGBT community has needed for quite some time.
