My Experience With Racism In The Gay Community

For all the talk about achieving equality in mainstream society, the gay community doesn’t always practice what it preaches. Which is the never discussed, but always present, racism that is wide-spread in gay circles. Ironic as this is a group that has fought for equal rights. While at the same time is quite segregated by race within its own community. Spanning a decade, comes the stories of discrimination and racism in the gay community. With tales not just from gay men in North America, but all over the world. Over one hundred guys, all of them men of color, have written their thoughts of racism among their gay peers. When it comes to the gay men and their community, there is no such thing as equality.
