Was the civil rights movement a "black agenda" or was it a civil rights agenda?

It think calling it a black agenda falsely implies that all blacks are proponents of the civil rights agenda. Whether or not that is mostly true, I think it is an erroneous statement to make.

Similarly, the agenda for civil rights pertaining to gays is hardly universal among homosexuals ... which is a big surprise and personal disappointment to me ... but I think it rules out calling this branch of the civil rights agenda the "gay agenda."

As for this unfortunate news from the Senate Committee, I find my disappointment more than offset by the judicial ruling in Georgia abolishing the gay marriage ban in that state. While the ruling had nothing to do with the merits of gay marriage (it was based on election irregularities), I find it comforting that justice seems mostly to come down on the side of, well, justice ... while I'm hardly surprised that politics seems mostly to come down of the side of barbarism.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Thanks.
