Quotable Quote

"‘Don’t ask, don’t tell’ doesn’t just repress gays and lesbians, it represses everyone. It perpetuates the idea that in order to be a stable society, we have to lie to ourselves."



--Historian Nathaniel Frank, author of Unfriendly Fire: How the Gay Ban Undermines the Military and Weakens America.

In this bracing new account, Frank shows how “don’t ask, don’t tell” has utterly failed.
