If I didn’t define myself for myself, I would be crunched into other people’s fantasies for me and eaten alive.~~Audre Lorde
There is still so much work to be done, as the shamefully narrow, hateful definition of family in several states shows us.
It's a pity that fear and bigotry had their small victories as well; but see them as small, friends, for they are--they are as small as the small terrified minds that conceived them.
The world is becoming a better place. I will never give up working for the people I love to have their rightful place in it. Never.
