The resistance movement to Proposition 8 is bringing forward a new generation of Queer community leaders who are rejecting the "safe" strategies of their elders and the namby-pamby losing campaign against it. Young activists are organizing demonstrations on the Internet and giving speeches that remind author Leo Laurence — who founded the first Gay-liberation group in San Francisco in January 1969, five months before Stonewall — of the radical Queers of the late 1960's and early 1970's.
