Almost a Way of Life

My hope for this book is that people will educate themselves and young LGBT people will Realize that they are not alone, especially in the mountains of southeastern Kentucky or any area of this small planet. Hopefully there will be an awakening in part all over the world about equality and human rights. The heinous murders of people like Allen Schindler in Sasebo, Japanese Navy man who gave his life to be who he was, forever changed me. I plead that you read this book with an open heart and mind! People around the world face violence and inequality" and sometimes torture, even execution because of who they love, how they look or who they are. Sexual orientation and identity of gender are integral aspects of ourselves and should never lead to discrimination or abuse against anyone.
