Paperback. Condición: Very Good. The powerful story of a closeted Republican politician from Arizona battling blackmail to the point of coming out publicly and finding self-acceptance as one of the nation's chief spokespeople on LGBT equality. Neil Giuliano is a former four-term mayor of Tempe, Arizona (pop 175,000) and four-year president of GLAAD--the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, one of the most prominent media advocacy and anti-defamation groups in the country working for LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) equality. Neil was officially in the closet until age 39, when increasing pressure from right-wing religious opponents in Tempe compelled him to publicly acknowledge his sexual orientation. He went from being terrified of public exposure to being an openly gay mayor--Tempe was the largest city in America with an openly gay mayor for six years--to leading one of the most high-profile gay rights organizations in the country and quite often the media face for the broader movement for LGBT equality. It was an extraordinary transition fueled by an emotional and societal awakening that brought him great personal courage. The Campaign Within is both Neil's memoir and a call to arms for all who care about human rights. Honestly and tenderly, Neil tells his story of growing up, coming to terms with who he is, his political and personal successes and failings, and finally choosing to live openly as a gay man. Forcefully, passionately and with authority he describes why such a path continues to remain challenging and closed to so many Americans and how legal equality is denied to LGBT citizens, engineered by a religion-based bigotry that retains a cultural grip on government. About the Author Neil Giuliano: Neil G. Giuliano is an educator, activist, philanthropy advisor, leadership coach, and speaker. A former mayor and president of a national advocacy organization, he has been involved with community service and public affairs his entire career.

Paperback. Condición: Good. New York Times bestselling author and CNBC commenter Keith Boykin expands on the It Gets Better project by bringing together 25 essays by men of color on the topic of surviving growing up gay. In 1974, playwright Ntozake Shange published a choreopoem called For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When The Rainbow Is Enuf. The book/play/poetry would go on to inspire legions of women for decades and would later become the subject and title of a hugely popular movie in the fall of 2010. While the film was selling out movie theaters, young black gay men were literally committing suicide in the silence of their own communities. In the same time period, a young Rutgers University student named Tyler Clementi took his own life after a roommate secretly videotaped him in an intimate setting with another young man. In response, syndicated columnist and author Dan Savage created a YouTube video with his partner Terry to inspire young people facing harassment. Their message, It Gets Better, turned into a popular movement, inspiring thousands of user-created videos on the Internet. Savage's project targeted people of all races, backgrounds and colors, but Boykin has created something special for colored boys. The new book responds to the crisis of youth development and suicide in the black community, and more specifically among young gay men of color. For Colored Boys is designed to educate and inspire those seeking to overcome obstacles in their lives. About the Author Keith Boykin is the editor of The Daily Voice online news site, a CNBC contributor, a BET TV host and a New York Times best-selling author of three books. Educated at Dartmouth and Harvard, Keith attended law school with President Barack Obama and served in the White House as a special assistant to President Bill Clinton.
