Abstract

The article focuses on an anti-gay ballot initiative in Miami, Florida, which have spurred some political coalitions in the state. Miami's small gay and lesbian movement pushed through an amendment to a human rights law that protects people from discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, and it became the subject of a repeal effort by the Christian Coalition and Take Back Miami-Dade. The stakes are high for the ballot fight, with the major national gay political groups, Human Rights Campaign and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, being involved.
