"The Times They Are A-Changin,'" sang Bob Dylan at the height of the civil rights movement in the 1960s Indeed, the same could be said today for the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender community. After years of struggle, public opinion is finally moving in favor of LGBT equality and a new generation is pushing forward that change, backed by a growing chorus of straight allies. "We are at an historic tipping point, the way many people think about LGBT issues. In many ways are beginning to champion our equality like never before," said Joe Solmonese, president of the Human Rights Campaign, the country's largest LGBT advocacy organization. Legalize Gay" is a documentary that captures the courage and conviction of a new generation of activists -- gay and straight -- as they campaign for LGBT equality in marriage, non-discrimination in sports and at work, same-sex sex education, standing up to bullying and forging inclusive college campuses.They are taking these stands often in parts of the country hostile to LGBT rights. 'Yes, there's change. And it's often times at the hands of these young people, very boldly and very out, doing what they have to do," said Shane Windmeyer, executive director of Campus Pride, which promotes LGBT equality at universities across the country.
