LGBT, week 5 of Reinventing the Nation at BHCC





After listening and reading through a few of our selected pieces for this week I have thought more and more about how the privileges of heterosexuals one day can be the privileges of the LGBT community. Many of them are never thought about or mentioned but longed for if you are not straight. Every single person has numerous struggles throughout their life but the ones of the LGBT community in the past have been so very hurtful and abusive. The problems that they face are simply those of basic human rights and needs, this is something that I wish did not have to be fought for anymore but just came to everyone.
In my lifetime I have seen same sex marriages be let into some states which makes many believe that it can be understood and let into America as a whole. There are many things that we labeled wrong & illegal that now seems to be a basic right and I hope that this is the case for the LGBT communities rights.
