Sarah Schulman notes that what she calls "familial homophobia" is a common experience that almost every gay person experiences. More importantly, she stresses that instead of dealing with this individually, we need to create community solutions together to deal with these problems. Schulman is the author of Ties That Bind: Familial Homophobia and Its Consequences (as well as Stagestruck: Theater, AIDS, and the Marketing of Gay America and Girls, Visions and Everything: A Novel), and she joins Laura in the studio to talk about homophobia in the family and more.
