This piece is not a happy piece. Although, it does end with hope for the future. In the past 50 years since the Stonewall Protests, we have made great strides as a country in the acceptance of LGBTQ+ peoples. However, we are still fighting many battles to ensure that members of our community can live freely and safely as who they are. I hope that as you listen to this piece you will remember all those that have been forgotten to history. I hope you will recognize how their sacrifice has helped us gain the freedoms we are so grateful for today.
