What Happens When A Gay Olympian Wins At The Sochi Games?
In a beautiful 2-minute video, All Out asks the simple truth that faces many gay Olympians in the near future: will they be forced to live a lie while competing in Russia? Through the eyes of a lesbian iceskater, All Out shines a light on Russia's anti-gay laws as she must decide whether or not to celebrate in secret or in truth.
With less than 100 days until the Sochi Winter Games, All Out is calling on the International Olympics Committee to stand by its priniciples of non-discrimination.
This indepement movement, which is mobilizing users through the power of social media, has started a petition that supports its effort of 'speaking out.' Users can sign up here or Tweet the video using the hashtag #LoveAlwaysWins.

Come out, out of the closet. Now you can give it your all.
America, you belong to me, so the story goes, I am free.
Free to be, who I want to be, if that’s queer, I’m glad to be . . .
I’m Gay! Stand up and shout it. Be proud about it. Stand Tall!

The Country can be interchangeable.
