While many LGBT rights activists were celebrating the recent U.S. Supreme Court hearings on California's Proposition 8 and the Defense of Marriage Act, transman Bryan Ellicott came away with a very different experience from the rally and march outside of the court.
Ellicott, in an op-ed piece posted yesterday at The New Civil Rights Movement, tells the story of harassment by Human Rights Campaign members and other attendees of the rally and accuses the HRC of purposefully discouraging trans participation during the rally.
