In Oakland, California, in 1966, community college students Bobby Seale and Huey Newton armed themselves, began patrolling the police, and promised to prevent police brutality.

Una frattura profonda divide invece il Paese quando si discute dei mezzi per combattere questi mali. Al centro del durissimo dibattito c'è la cosiddetta "teoria del gender". Da un lato, i sostenitori sentono tutta l'ingiustizia di una società in cui una persona può ancora essere considerata inferiore a causa del proprio diverso orientamento sessuale, del proprio sesso, della propria identità di genere.

Come e quando ci si scopre gay e lesbiche? Cosa vuol dire omosessualità nelle altre culture? E cosa accade nelle specie animali?
