Join Lambda for this awesome panel. In addition to the regular panelists, we will also be hosting Shannon Minter, the lead legal strategist in the Proposition 8 court challenge.

 

Members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) communities often find the biological argument for civil rights distasteful and even disingenuous. While demographers, survey researchers, and economists consider the conceptual frameworks that create various portraits and arguments about LGBTQ communities and its needs, legal and social movement theorists struggle to build a vision for liberation that connects LGBTQ people to a broader movement for justice.
