Coming Home to America: A Roadmap to Gay & Lesbian Empowerment

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0312145721, Hardcover)

In this "roadmap to gay and lesbian empowerment," the former head of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force provides a blueprint for broad social revolution that starts by looking within one's own heart. Drawing upon the personal stories of queer Americans representing a diverse range of ages, races, religions and sexual orientations, Osborn celebrates the courage inherent in every decision to come out, and argues that simply by living our lives, each of us provides compelling arguments for our place in society. She then suggests ways in which gays, lesbians, and everyone else can come together and build inclusive communities of hope which serve as models not just for the gay rights movement, but for all Americans.
