I loved Collin's acceptance speech of his GLSEN Courage Award. What I particularly liked is how he acknowledged the people who paved the way for him -- some of whom he named. Acknowledging their contribution to all of our paths is so important.

This Fernando Colon who married the former common law wife of the Cleveland kidnapper may be the one to suffer the most injustice from a long term legal standpoint if he remains a convicted sex offender after apparently being framed.
If anyone is wondering why it takes more courage to come out as gay when you are a minority in this country then the recent turn of events in the immigration debate should give a clue. Hey, when society beats you up already why make it worse?

My team was featured in a news story about inclusive sports teams. Pretty cool
When Jason Collins announced that he is gay, it made headlines. But when the WNBA’s No. 1 draft pick, Brittney Griner, made the same announcement recently, it was met with less fanfare. Part of that is the result of a stereotype that has persisted that women who play basketball are lesbians, while most men who play basketball are straight. When a professional male athlete for one of the major sports comes out, it is breaking news, and start planning ticker-tape parades, despite men like David Kopay and John Amaechi already proving beyond a doubt that gay men are pro-athletes.
My thoughts on Jason Collins' announcement.
