BET Releases List of ‘Who’s Who’ in Black Gay America
Angela Davis, an American socialist organizer and professor once associated with the Black Panther Party, first achieved nationwide notoriety when she was linked to the murder of Judge Harold Haley during an attempted prison break. She was a fugitive but was eventually captured, arrested, tried; she was then acquitted in one of the most famous trials in recent history. She is now a professor of history at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
Recently released, BET.com’s “Who’s Who in the Black LGBT Community” lists numerous openly LGBT elected officials (current, former and future!), including Cambridge, Massachusetts Mayor Denise Simmons, and Anthony Woods, a candidate for U.S. Congress from California.
Actor Wilson Cruz, political commentator Keith Boykin, and former NBA player John Amaechi are also highlighted.
See who else is on the list here.
