AAPP: Talking about issues related to Gay black men may not be an interesting topic for many black political bloggers, but it is for this African American Political Pundit (and let me be very clear "I'm Not Gay)." Yes, I placed it in bold folks. There are many issues in gay communities that are not talked about by the main stream media or for that matter the black blogging community. As an example the issue of blacks gays getting married and if Gay Marriage is Anti Black is not a topic of conversation with many black bloggers, not was the incident Or how about the Busted Florida Republican state rep's "black gay panic" defense on soliciting charge.
You are right when you say that this issue is not discussed by black bloggers but it is a symptom of the homo and lesbo phobia that is rampant in out community. I recently posted about a police beating of a black transexual woman and one of the questions I asked is where is our black leadership on this issue? If this were the case of a black man being assaulted by a white police officer Jackson and Sharpton would have been on the first plane organizing and screaming from on high.
