I need to emphasize this

Was reading through the comments below and I wanted to say this again, My position on scapegoating and prop 8, in no way means that those of us in the black community don't have a serious homophobia problem that we need to confront. Put in the most brutal and coldest terms, too many of us dying for us to not take up this fight. One can believe that media got it wrong on Prop 8 and still believe that we've got work to do. Religion explains a lot. History explains a lot. Education explains a lot. But nothing excuses it. We've got work to do. Having been wronged, doesn't automatically make you right. We must learn to walk and chew gum this year.
