In this great American experiment, we must rely on the fundamental ideals the founders laid out in the beginning. After that initial revolution that birthed the United States of America, some eighty years later, we fought a civil war to solidify the course of our country.
We are at a similar, if not as outwardly violent, cross-roads once again. All colors. All religions, all creeds. LGBTQ or straight, ALL who strive and desire to live in peace with one another.
EQUAL RIGHTS FOR ALL. *ALL* people deserve, ney, HAVE these inalienable rights.
Let us not rest until this ideal is in fact, reality. Let us make it a reality. Let us say their names over and over until all peoples have justice and equal treatment across these fair and wide lands.
Take a listen to this profile of one woman’s life, striving to find her way, her own way, in this America.
