L.A. TIMES: Gays, blacks divided on Proposition 8.

UPDATE: Dan Savage is angry: “I’m done pretending that the handful of racist gay white men out there—and they’re out there, and I think they’re scum—are a bigger problem for African Americans, gay and straight, than the huge numbers of homophobic African Americans are for gay Americans, whatever their color.” And Ta-Nehisi Coates comments: “The anger is justified, expected, and human. But it’s not how we’re going to fix this.” (Via Andrew Sullivan, who also calls for people to chill.)

ANOTHER UPDATE: More thoughts here: “There will be equality between gays and straights; let’s try not to burn too many bridges on our way there.”
