Bits and Pieces for the Week of November 2 - 8

I think the fact that 70% of black voters in California supported anti-gay-marriage Proposition 8 needs analysis. Is it because of religious reasons, historical reasons or something else?

Is black prejudice against gays taught as a traditional family value, or is it entrenched in the black culture in some other form? (Mike)
