The legacy of Harvey Milk


The groundbreaking work of Harvey Milk, who was one of the nation's first openly gay elected officials, continues to resonate, according to Chuck Wolfe, president and CEO of The Victory Fund.

The life of Milk, the recipient of a Presidential Medal of Freedom, offers key lessons on "perseverance, pride and telling the truth about who we really are," Wolfe wrote recently on The Huffington Post.
