Primary Sources

Researching my primary sources the same information has been repeated. The research i have done has continued to emphasize on how Harvey Milk did not just advocate for gay rights, he advocated for any one who didn't have representation. He did not have many sponsors during his campaign  many of his followers were towns people, many from different ethnic groups. Harvey Milk was accepting of everyone and felt every citizen in American should be treated the same, with equal rights. He worked to abolish discrimination against gays; giving the gay community more jobs. More gay and lesbian teachers were being hired. He also worked to improve education, public transportation, child-care, and low income housing. Harvey Milks slogan was "Milk has something for everybody." and this is what Milk did. He took an approach that appealed to everyone, not just gays and lesbians. Milk advocated for everyone, but he had the biggest impact on the gay and lesbian community.
