I wish it was true every time but at least love won this time…

This morning I am down at a college in New Haven talking to public health students on healthcare disparities that we face.
Then this afternoon I will be at the local senior center for the Friday meeting of the photo club and that is going to be followed by a meeting at the CT chapter of the National Association of Social Workers. It is going to be a long day.
Community rallies in support of school's first transgender homecoming queenIt was so great that the students came out in support of their fellow student and to stand up against hate.

KANSAS CITY, MO (KCTV) -
Students are rallying around a transgender homecoming queen at a Northland high school.
Landon Patterson came out as a transgender female last year while staying active as a cheerleader and show choir member at Oak Park High School. Classmates made their acceptance clear through the annual nomination and voting process for homecoming queen.

On Thursday, members of the Westboro Baptist Church protested at the school, but students and members of the community struck first with a rally of support at Oak Grove Park.
Far more people attended the event organized as love and support for Patterson than were at the Westboro event.
