Gay novelist, Michael Holloway Perronne, shipped a copy of his novel, A Time Before Me, along with a miniature shovel, to controversial Alabama lawmaker Rep. Gerald Allen on Thursday.
Allen recently made headlines by proposing a state law that would ban gay books, plays, and films at public institutions. (story)
If his bill became law, public school textbooks could not present views on homosexuality, college theater groups would not be able to perform plays like the Tennessee Williams classic "Cat On A Hot Tin Roof" or The Laramie Project, and public school libraries could not display books that include lesbianism like Alice Walker's "The Color Purple."
