Blacks and Gays
(First, let me apologize up front if this diary is not up to par. This is my first diary here, and aside from a single, brief diary I wrote at dkos during the primary season analyzing legislative records of HRC and BHO, I have never written a diary before. My writing style is probably atypical--I spend my days writing long and detailed academic papers for journals and so I'm having a little trouble being terse. In fact, I've already cut the goal of this diary in half because of its length; I'll write another one, if anyone's interested, later this week.)
