My Str8 Uncle and his Girlfriend are attending a rally!
What makes this special is that he is ordained in the same church as I am and he's showing up in his tab shirt to show support. He just called and said, "they don't own G'd and they don't own me". We discussed some talking points and expressed love and support for one another.

I'm so late. I've got a memo to put together and a brief speech to finish writing. I'll post pix when I get back.

Everyone be safe. Peace be with you. Be strong. Be better than "them".

5. I posted in another thread when my partner and I got back
late this afternoon from the Greensboro action. The support from hetero families was heartfelt and gratefully received. Everyone was so together... you could feel the love and respect in the air. The crowd was the most diverse you could imagine, even for just 300 people. Yet, we were all happy to be together, all pulling for right and righteousness.

Awe-inspiring. Absolutely next to numinous.
