difference. It is an incredible privilege to be a part of the LGBT movement, and make no mistake, this is a movement, for full justice, fairness and inclusion for all. I feel so lucky to be a part of this transformative moment in history. Folks will look back a generation or two to this time and say, ‘Wow, it must have been amazing to be a part of that.’ And here we are, how cool is that?” -KD
