The "gay agenda" is a rhetorical strategy deployed by the religious
right and other social conservatives to magnify fear and hostility
of queers. Queers are accused, among other things, of strategizing
to recruit children into sexually deviant lifestyles; dismantling
family and marriage as cornerstones of civilization; and forcing
the entertainment industry and court systems to do their bidding.
Queers certainly do have an agenda but it is not the one that the
religious right claims it is. It is to assert their presence in the
public space; claim and name their identities; and strategize for
social justice in law, schools, and workplaces. The Gay Agenda:
Claiming Space, Identity, and Justice claims and reclaims the
language of "agenda" and turns the rhetoric of the religious right
on its ear. The contributors provide insightful and sharp
commentary on gay agendas for human rights, marriage and family,
cultural influences, schooling and education, and politics and law.
