I'm trying to imagine a large and historically significant gay civil rights group appointing an avowed racist as its director. I'm trying to imagine the board of HRC or GLAAD or NGLTF or GLSEN or Lambda Legal appointing a director who opposed interracial marriage or was against the renewal of the Voting Rights Act or was critical of affirmative action.
