They were/are fighting for the same thing, equality.
So please explain the difference.
Well for one, they could actually get married within their group and were prevented in certain regions from marrying outside their group. With homosexuals, people aim to prevent them from marrying their own kind and encourage them to marry non-homosexuals.
On another, we generally do not see segregation of homosexuals and even the violence is no where near the level as it was during the 1960s...mind you there is still violence and murders of homosexuals, but it is no where near the level that the African American community faced and continues to face.
