PhoboQuotable – Alexandria Coronado

“I think it just absolutely denigrates the entire civil rights movement. Homosexuality is not a civil right. I don’t remember the last time that a homosexual person was forced to move out of their seat on a public bus, like Rosa Parks. And I don’t remember the last time that a homosexual person or student…was forced to go to a segregated school, as in the case of Mendez v. Westminster, which took place right here in Orange County, California.” – Alexandria Coronado, chairperson of the Orange County, California Board of Education, who is “absolutely furious” about the approval of Harvey Milk Day. Last month the Orange County Board of Education voted unanimously to oppose the holiday.
