The results of gay activism are slow to show.

But now, the harvest is beginning to come in. And it is bountiful.

N.C.A.A. Moves Championship Events From North Carolina, Citing Anti-Gay-Rights Law

Long headline.

We are part of the fabric now. Not to be sidelined.

The fact is that there are, really really, gay players. That helps too. They are out in their teams.

Gays are good at fancy footwork and shooting at hoops just like anyone else. Except me. I never got basketball. Not dribbling, not shooting, not any of it.

It has been an honor and a privilege to live at this time. To show up at gay marches when they mattered most. To be open and out in my work. To take advantage of all the new opportunities like marriage.

Gay pride is not a theory. It is for living. Acting. Being one's true self in the world.
