True Colors - L.A. Gay Men's Chorus - It Gets Better

In this last week, in a nearby city, the powers that be voted to defeat a measure that would have banned workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation.  It made me crazy to read some of the things these policy-makers said.  My dear BH said "It's like living in the Dark Ages."

But I'm not going to rant about it.  Instead, I'm posting this video the Los Angeles Gay Men's Chorus made for the It Gets Better Project.  I got goosebumps right around the 3-minute mark, when -- well, you'll see.

  1. So beautiful and moving! Your control beat mine, though. I was in tears pretty much from the jump.

    Dark Ages indeed. I just can't wrap my mind around it.

  2. Hi KZ!

    Aww, you sentimental ol' thing, you!

    Dark Ages - I know. That mind set is just beyond anything I can make sense of. Like serial killing.

  7. Definitely an awesome video, Wren! Thanks for sharing it.

    I truly can't understand how some politicians can justify voting against something like that ban. It's just...grrrr!! ....I need to watch the vid again.
