Summary
Through an examination of publicly mourned gay deaths in America, Brett Krutzsch counters the common perception that LGBT politics and religion have been oppositional to one another. 'Dying to Be Normal' reveals how gay activists have used religion to bolster the argument that gays are essentially the same as straights, and therefore deserving of equal rights.
