Publisher's Summary: ...shows violence against sexual minorities can be subtly woven into the very fabric of some of our most long-standing, respected social institutions. For too long, the sexual minorities of color, for example, and the lesbian who suffers physical assault at the hands of a partner, have had little or no help from social workers, law enforcement, or education for fear of receiving either complete negligence or increased antagonism. But now, in this book you'll find the facts and tools necessary for turning the ugliness of communal violence into social justice for people of all sexual orientations.
