Brava!

Coming out is hard enough, but coming out in front of your entire high school? That takes chutzpah!



Granted:
1. "We" have not overcome racism
2. A lot of folks coming out face more severe issues than finding love like being kicked out of their homes, depression, substance abuse, suicide, violence, abuse, murder <--- gaining equal marriage won't solve these issues.
3. There have been A LOT more than 5 suicides in the past few months

BUT...it was a nice speech that most folks wouldn't be allowed to deliver at their schools. It was also a nice touch that this speech was delivered on MLK Day. We have to keep fighting to end ALL oppression!!!
