    Great man that did A LOT for people, but is hardly recognized in the LGBT community since he had to stay away from the spotlight in most things that he was involved due to his sexuality. He didn't want the Civil Rights Movement to be disqualified on the grounds of being organized by a gay man

    There is a great documentary about him for anyone that is interested:
