Please don’t act like African-Americans are not homophobic. The United States, in general, is homophobic.

Most African Americans voted for Prop 8 in California

Lesbian discusses black homophobia

Oh look a research paper comparing homophobia in blacks and whites in the US. I could probably find the full text link but I won’t. It is summarized in the abstract.

There are Black crazies out there at anti-gay rallies. Maybe not in the numbers that you would see at a Westboro Baptist Church protest, maybe they are a minority at the rallies, or maybe the media shows people what they want to see.



Remember that a people divided is easier to govern. Homophobic beliefs that hinder the LGBT from having rights to get married, not be fired for their sexuality in some states, etc can’t be placed solely one one race in the United States. Homophobia is in our culture. I could have just as easily shown examples of homophobia in Mexican-, Chinese-, Japanese-American communities. It is an American issue. It is not unique to white people and we do not have to look at Africa to see homophobia outside of white communities. It is in our own backyard. (don’t give me beef about that acronym Tumblr bullshit. People flip out on you for not putting it in the right order.)
