Abstract
Article on the November referendum question that will ask voters if they want to repeal the recently passed gay-rights legislation. Steve Wessler, director of the Center for the Prevention of Hate Violence at the University of Southern Maine, hopes to compile first-hand stories of discrimination based on sexual orientation. Wessler notes that many Mainers simply don't believe discrimination exists, and others think that gays and lesbians are already protected by current law. With a narrative by Hall Willkie and Tom Craveiro, describing the discrimination they experienced at the Greyrock Inn of Northeast Harbor, in August 2003.
