The Beginning

Today I took the first step in my Independent Study research: I bought a book via Barnes and Noble entitled, "The Celluloid Closet: Homosexuality in the Movies" by Vito Russo. The documentary was on IFC before, and am considering purchasing it. It's around $22, which is pretty steep for me, but I think it'll be worth it.

A Beginning

I'm going to graduate in May 2010 at Buffalo State College, and decided to take an Independent Study. Even though I am taking a course on minorities in the media, I want to dig deeper. Since I enrolled in college, I have been an advocate for gay and lesbian civil rights and hope to continue on in the fight well after graduation. This blog is meant to serve as a journal for myself, and for others, as I come across different sources and learn more about the movement by posting my reactions and thoughts in this blog. Hope you all enjoy!
