I am no longer comfortable being apathetic or playing it “safe”. ⁣ ⁣ I am no longer comfortable being “non-political”. ⁣ ⁣ I am no longer comfortable choosing what’s “easy” because it’s what “has been”. ⁣ ⁣ I am no longer comfortable letting the God of my understanding be misrepresented out of fear, or, in some cases, ignorance.

The reason that I posed for NOH 8 Campaign back in September of 2010, I was so moved by the strong , positive impact NOH 8 Campaign was having across the nation! I too wanted to help continue to promote no hate in this world today. We need this more than ever! I will always stand for anyone who isn’t able to . I hope I can give others strength to just be who they want to be

In 2008, in response to the passage of Proposition 8, @adambouska and partner @jeffparshley started the @noh8campaign to take a stand against discrimination . Now, 11 years later, the #NOH 8 Campaign has grown to fight against bullying of all kinds . I am honored to add my face (and my voice) to this movement. The message of 'No Hate' should be embraced and spread-

When the NOH 8 Campaign started, I was still discovering my identity. Seeing LGBTQ people standing up for their rights gave me the confidence I needed to continue to explore myself, so that I could see myself in that future. I hope that young people will find their courage through the movement to help fight for a better future. I wear the red ribbon in solidarity

I posed because everyone should have the right to love with all their heart and to find that great love and shout it out loud . To explore and find their path and to be their true selves without fear. Finally I posed for those who can't ... For those who are no longer with us and for those who may not yet be ready .  Merry meet, merry part....merry meet again. ~ Heather
