Bending Toward Justice chronicles the early years of a movement pressing for equal rights and lifesaving resources for LGBTQ people who for eons have been shunned by the ignorant, reviled by the so-called faithful, and shamed even by their own families. Basile led the Human Rights Campaign through the AIDS epidemic as it suffered too many lives lost, fought for essential funding for research, education and treatment, confronted ignorance and discrimination, and helped shift the hearts and minds of Americans about equal treatment. These unsung heroes of the movement worked unobtrusively and bravely within the system to change the system. Every single one of them has a poignant, powerful story that must be told and that never should be forgotten
