Good News: A Changing World

A Facebook post from January 29, 2015

We are surrounded by bad news every day. Here's a bit of hope about our changing world. A carpenter we've worked with in the past is doing some work for us. I asked him about his daughter, who has had quite the exciting adventures over the many years we've known Alan, including sitting in trees to prevent deforestation. I asked about her and without missing a beat, Alan said, "He's doing fine in Oregon. He was back recently because his mom died." After a bit Alan explained to me that he's a Trans man, and then went on with his story. The world is changing. A little bit at a time. But it's changing.
