I have a lot of "out" Blackgay friends and associates. Considering that people can post anonymously at DK, the mere fact of being gay and Black and ostracized wouldn't be a reason for those Blacks not to participate at DailyKos. Were it not for anti-Black bias among white gays, Black gays might be at DailyKos already. (I've read over and over again in Black contexts that whites think they gay movement is "all about them" and they don't invite or even want Blacks to participate in their efforts and culture, etc. Maybe it's not "true", but it's certainly the perception, which is what matters in terms of outreach.)

"Only after we change that which seemed essential do we realize how natural the "new normal" really is and how inevitable it always was."
