Requests:  0 Summary:  Great strides have been made in securing rights for the LGBT community in recent years. Although statistics prove that acceptance of LGBT individuals has grown substantially in the past decade, there are still many people who ignore the laws in favor of their own beliefs. This anthology brings together writings from diverse sources to construct a well-balanced examination of LGBT rights in the United States and around the world. Readers will be exposed to both sides of the same-sex marriage debate, the controversy over restroom access for transgender individuals, and the reasons why the LGBT community continues to fight for its rights.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Ewa Beach P/S Library YA -- Nonfiction 323.3264 LG Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library YA -- Nonfiction 323.3264 LG Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library YA -- Nonfiction 323.3264 LG Checked In Add Copy to MyList
