I'm in a social justice program and so we talk. We talk often. About race, about class - all the important stuff. But sexual orientation usually gets swept under the rug. Its harder to talk about. Because everyone can agree that racism is bad and social stratification is unfair but when it comes to being gay the waters become choppier and people don't always agree. Social justice must include the full acceptance of the LGBT community, without full inclusion of that community, all talk is just hypocrisy.
