Peeling the Onion: From Matthew Shepard's Murder to "Don't Say Gay"
From Matthew Shepard's Murder to "Don't Say Gay"
Omschrijving
This book weaves glimpses of some of the author's experiences; intertwined with the experiences of friends, family and acquaintances; in his half-century journey to understand the impact of oppression and trauma on his life and the country. The author explores how the murder of his young friend Matthew Shepard, and being briefly thrust into the national spotlight, affected the direction and focus of that journey. The book chronicles his movement from the deafening silence of growing up in the don't ask don't tell environment of Wyoming; through that horrific murder; and into decades of painstakingly slow, positive, change toward social justice; accompanied by a growing negative backlash culminating in don't say gay and other hate-based legislation.
