There is no evidence or historical record to suggest that Emmett Till was gay. Emmett Till was a 14-year-old African American boy who was brutally murdered in 1955 in Mississippi, sparking national outrage and becoming a symbol of the Civil Rights Movement.
No, There are many gay fashion designers, but some aren't gay. Really, he could or he couldn't be gay. Many gay people are artistic and often are designers. Therefore many men in the fashion industry are gay, but it doesn't mean they have to be gay to be artistic. Anyone could be gay OR artistic. It doesn't matter what ethnicity you are or what job you have. He could be, and he could not be.
Many gay people start out trying to live a heterosexual lifestyle. They don't "turn gay" after they are married. Either they decide that they don't want to live a lie, or they reach a point where they accept that they have always been gay. Nobody can make anyone else gay.
Many progressives were indifferent or actively hostile to minorities and immigrants. Labor unions have sometimes been guilty of this, seeking progress for their own members while trying to exclude others from making progress.Sometimes the issue of exactly what is progressive, becomes muddled. People who claim to be concerned about human rights in the Middle East will almost always turn out to be concerned only about the human rights of some people in the middle east, which they wish to support at the expense of other people's rights.There is an organization called "Queers Against Israeli Apartheid" which seeks to march in gay pride parades, to demonstrate solidarity with Palestinians. Palestinians, however, generally do not support gay rights, since homosexuality is forbidden by Islam, and gay people are usually killed in Muslim countries, when they are discovered. All of these homosexuals who wish to support Palestinian causes by attacking Israel would wind up being killed if they actually went to Gaza to show their support in person. Israel is the only place in the middle east where gay people have any rights, yet some members of the gay rights movement are actively hostile to Israel. One might argue that there are greater, overarching issues than gay rights, however, it is still a contradiction in progressive ideas, that the gay rights movement winds up supporting people who are deeply opposed to gay rights, while attacking their own Israeli allies who do support gay rights in the middle east.
Boys do not "want" to be gay; sexual orientation is not a choice. Sexual orientation is a natural and intrinsic part of who a person is. It is important to respect and support individuals regardless of their sexual orientation.

The gay liberation movement of the early 1970's brought the existence of gay people into public view. Prior to that, gay people were virtually invisible in society. This visibility resulted in the removal of homosexuality as a mental disease, as well the move toward equal rights.
Most recently, the "gay liberation" movement in the United States began with the Stonewall Bar riots in late June of 1969 in New York City. However, the first gay liberation movement occurred in Germany in the late 19th century.

Gay Liberation Front was created in 1969.
The language of the civil rights movement has been used to fight the opposition of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender rights. The civil rights movement did not directly affect the gay rights movement, but it did influence some on how they could make their secret open and accepted by others. This eventually became known as Gay Liberation. It may sound similar to Women Liberation, the movement where women wanted rights to vote, get abortions, and have the same pay as men. Another term, Gay Power, originally came from the term Black Power which was part of the civil rights movement.
