In addition to picking up homosexual historic sites, I think the Park Service should have a homosexual tie-in at all NPS facilities. Some of them would be easy. Homosexuals have fought in all of our wars. Put the historians and genealogists to work to find out who those individuals were, and have exhibits such as “The Soldiers of Gay-tysburg,” “The Rainbow Flag Brigaydes of Shiloh”, “The Queens of Kings Mountain.” Since it has been established that Lincoln was a homosexual, all the Lincoln sites should have a strong, if not exclusively, homosexual theme, including 1/4 of Mount Rushmore and all of the Lincoln Memorial. What was the silly north-south thing in comparison to what is truly important about Old Abe? Really, friends, isn’t it high time that homosexuality had its own special shrine on the Capitol Mall?
I was in the post office today, and the workers behind the counter were looking over the newly arrived stamps. One of them mentioned Harvey Milk stamps, and asked who it was, the other guy said he had no idea.
They were around mid 40’s or so. If they were 20something they would have known the whole history of Milk. Ugh.
