“The highlight for me was coming around the Abner’s corner and seeing all the rainbow-colored people hanging off balconies and filling the streets. I got chill bumps and tears from that and the realization that so many people that I love who have felt marginalized could physically see their support in the town they lived in.”

“I have a renewed faith in humanity!”
