Damon Romine Both Quotations

It doesn't surprise me that the American Family Association would be afraid of this series. It shows a family that's both deeply religious and loving and accepting of their gay son.

This is a series about an American family, one which is inclusive of both faith and gay people. NBC is to be commended for standing up against anti-gay religious extremists, and to its commitment to the core American values of equality and non-discrimination.

Viewers can be both entertained and educated by stories on television that reflect the diversity of families and communities across this country. Images on television and in film have the power to help Americans embrace their lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender family members, friends and neighbors with understanding and acceptance.
