I celebrate America, but I am working for change in this country so that all people are given rights and opportunities to do and be amazing.
Currently, as a second class citizen, unable to wed and be in a marriage, not protected from discrimination in my career choices, housing inequalities, and other shortcomings, things are not right in this country.
But what this country does give us, gives me, is the opportunity to change things for the better, for all.
Change is coming. It is happening. But it comes with effort.
Pace!

Amen!
I wouldn't want to live anywhere else or raise my children anywhere else, but it is bittersweet indeed to celebrate freedom in a country where I am denied so many rights.
