Harvey Milk Speech

Harvey Milk was the first openly-gay man to be elected to public office in the US in 1977. His most recognized speech, "You Cannot Live On Hope Alone," was given in 1978, shortly before he was assassinated. His words resonate particularly today as Californians debate a resolution to ban gay marriage. To learn more about Harvey Milk, check out http://www.causecast.org/member/harvey-milk
