Writer Jafari Sinclaire Allen on being gay at Morehouse: "A recent article in the Los Angles Times, by Richard Fausset, bookends the recent history of homophobia and gay articulation at Morehouse with the heinous 2002 baseball-bat beating of a Morehouse student, Greg Love, by a dormitory mate, Aaron Price, and the historic “No More ‘No Homo’ ” events organized by Michael Brewer and members of the campus organization, Safe Space, in April 2008. For me, this recalls memories that I had put away… The fact that homophobia at Morehouse is not unique or unusual with respect to heterosexism and homophobia in society at large should be obvious… The institution represents rather, the “perfect storm” of homophobia in the US—racial and class anxieties of “exceptional Negroes,” masculine gender trouble, class conflict and fundamentalist religious baggage. These seas roil and skies open up in an international climate of heterosexism and misogyny. The violence is therefore instructive, dramatic and sad, but not rare in our world." More at Racialicious.
