To the kids out there who can’t have a Pride flag at their school: This flag will always fly high in your Nation’s Capital, and it flies for you. 🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

“It’s your very being that I like, not all the facts that you learn in school or all the things that people buy for you to wear or play with. It’s your self that means so much to me.”

Thank you Paolo! If someone had told me 3 or 4 months ago that I would be in the paper or on TV, I would have never believed them. Like so many allies, I have been knocked out of my complacency by the tidal wave of hate I have witnessed. We can no longer afford to be silent 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

“When we love a person, we accept him or her exactly as is: the lovely with the unlovely, the strong with the fearful, the true mixed in with the facade, and of course, the only way we can do it is by accepting ourselves that way.”
