Imagine A World Without Hate-Think About The Potential Taken From Ours
Frustrating. Beautiful. Sad. Hopeful. That's what this video is to me.
Take just 80 seconds of your time to watch this powerful video, which imagines a world without racism, homophobia or anti-Semitism — a world in which the hate violence that took the lives of Martin Luther King Jr., Anne Frank, Daniel Pearl, Matthew Shepard and others did not happen.

Truth- Sadness-Beauty
Oh, how these word are me, my experience, as they are to so many others. Truth, sadness, and beauty never get old. If you don't do anything else today, watch this video and listen.
B.C. poet and author Shane Koyczan’s animated video-poem, To this Day.
“My experiences with violence in schools still echo throughout my life
but standing to face the problem has helped me in immeasurable ways,”
Koyczan says in a press release.
“I’ve spent years working to restore the better parts of my nature. I
want to cheer on the underdog, celebrate the strengths in the lonely and
outcast, and reassure the despondent that endurance is a kind of
credential for this life.”

'Teddy Ferrara,' Play Based On Tyler Clementi Suicide Case, Opening At Chicago's Goodman Theatre
I'm a little torn about this one. I guess it depends how the play covers what happened(or chooses not to) and how much is fiction. I'd love to know if anyone sees this what they think about it.

The Future Is All About Loving Ourselves
Love is All You Need
I'm pretty sensitive to the dull bleakness of deep winter, as so many people are. It's that yearly time where emotionally I'm constantly struggling with the darker elements of my nature (the ones that aren't supportive and productive) that are being complimented by our short days. The sparkle and light of the holidays are recent memories and so is our snowpack; snow is always such a bright spot for me during this time, so having it gone just makes me feel more vulnerable. Parts of me are longing for the vitality of spring, but the days are visibly getting longer and it is getting easier to just let the season be what it is. These are the articles that gave me a pick up this week. They are all about loving ourselves and creating safe spaces for GLBTQ to thrive, one act at a time. The world may never be perfect for us, but hearing these stories and sharing in the love, happiness, and drive of unlikely heroes is an easy way to lift my spirits. It helps me feel good about the moment we are in and makes me feel it is a great time to be unabashedly queer. Be happy everyone!

President Obama's Inaugural Coverage
"We, the
people, declare today that the most evident of truths -- that all of us
are created equal -- is the star that guides us still; just as it guided
our forebears through Seneca Falls, and Selma, and Stonewall...
It is now our generation’s task to carry on what those pioneers began.
For our journey is not complete until our wives, our mothers, and
daughters can earn a living equal to their efforts. Our journey is not
complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else
under the law -- for if we are truly created equal, then surely the
love we commit to one another must be equal as well."
