The Anita Bryant Story
The Survival of Our Nation’s Families and the Threat of Militant Homosexuality
Bryant
1977
Until I saw this book, I had forgotten the crazy Anita Bryant obsession with gays. As more and more anti-discrimination laws started popping up, Anita and her husband began actively campaigning against these laws in Miami. She lost her lucrative contract pitching orange juice and eventually she became a nonstarter by the mid 80s.
I would weed it, but it might belong somewhere. She will be forever remembered as a flashpoint for gay rights in the 1970s and not as a singer or orange juice spokesperson. Personally, I read enough and I hope I forget her again.
