Leading Western Muslim scholars (Tariq Ramadan, Sherman Jackson and Shaykh Hamza Yusuf) on homosexuality

Video - Dr. Sherman Jackson "Is there a place for gay Muslims?"

Article by Dr. Tariq Ramadan "Islam and Homosexuality."

Video - "Tariq Ramadan about homosexuality."

Video - "Islam & Homosexuality - Shaykh Hamza Yusuf" a clip from the Oxford "Rethinking Islamic Reform Conference: Hamza Yusuf & Tariq Ramadan."

Video - "Homosexuality - Hamza Yusuf" (from back in the day).

I think a general discussion about desires -- which practically all of us struggle with -- giving in to them vs. curbing them (like in Ghazali's masterful Disciplining the Soul) would be important and relevant to framing the issue in a fuller context.
