Cleve Jones:
I went to Spain last month, long story. In Barcelona there was this memorial march for gay people that had died under Franco. Of course, the police tried to break it up, but these queens didn't run, no, they turned around and they started a fucking riot. I saw a bullet, one of those rubber bullets rip through a drag queens scalp, but she kept on fighting; she was screaming, but she kept on fighting. I mean, our lives... There was blood, literally running in the gutter. In a gutter. Harvey Milk:
We could have a revolution here. But you can't use the Castro just to cruise. You have to fight. Cleve Jones:
You think you'll win? Harvey Milk:
Winning isn't my strong suit. Cleve Jones:
Well, I don't do losing. Ever. Maybe I should run for office, and you can work for me. I mean, if you can do it... Harvey Milk:
Can you assemble a thousand people in an hour? Cleve Jones:
Fuck yeah. Harvey Milk:
All right, if I run again, you're my man. Polls open in 3 hours. How bout you and I hit the bus stops
