Minorities and the Others That Support them

I am straight. I have never been part of a pro-gay movement. And I feel sort of guilty about that.

the thing is, I've never really thought about it before. I support all forms of equality, but I have never once felt the need to actively help any minority, including gays, Blacks, and women (though how 50% makes a minority I don't know). I don't think many people really get involved in these types of things, even if they support the principles. the simple reason is that majority groups aren't searching for that piece of their life most of the time.

the the movie "The Assassination of Richard Nixon", the protagonist finds himself with a great hole in his life. he tries to fill it by joining a black equality group. They don't want him. I think this says alot about how far we have come in bridging such gaps since the time when that movie was set. Still, The drive simply isn't there for anyone but a minority to actively fight. Having considered this , I would like to help some such group. unfortunately they don't exist in Qatar, so I feel rather trapped. Darn.
