And yes, they are gay). I'm so glad your friend is raising awareness for such an important cause. <br /><br />All my best wishes to him in his efforts to make this important documentary.mypixiebloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09135461083810124483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1184792681608290132.post-82416328590876002572011-03-08T11:05:35.786-08:002011-03-08T11:05:35.786-08:00I'm interested in seeing this documentary.

Therefore, I think its wonderful that Leslie is able to gain the support - the financial support especially - for her cause. Its so expensive to make actual films.Joytihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06704064690267281149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1184792681608290132.post-40082946322980721932011-03-07T14:43:52.055-08:002011-03-07T14:43:52.055-08:00What a great project.

Such an important pov to be included in the conversation.<br />Oh, I can not phantom why people are so nasty because someone loves someone of the same sex/gender! It is truly heartbreaking. However, it is so positive for people to be speaking out and telling their stories(especially in a intolerant space). I will definitely check this out and keep it in my prayers.keishuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15425697524293318047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1184792681608290132.post-8305857295319663252011-03-07T12:58:35.894-08:002011-03-07T12:58:35.894-08:00what a wonderful cause for such an awful realizati...what a wonderful cause for such an awful realization and fate. i admire your friend and will be praying for him in his efforts. it's because of people like leslie that peace and hope exist in this jaded world. have a beautiful week:)vintchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16712981340712876360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1184792681608290132.post-86619029555692559362011-03-07T12:16:45.683-08:002011-03-07T12:16:45.683-08:00it is heartbreaking that this kind of discriminati...it is heartbreaking that this kind of discrimination still lives and thrives. but it is encouraging that people are trying to shed light on it and STOP IT. <br /><br />will head over and give a little dinero -- it is the least i can do.drollgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17098844996589898590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1184792681608290132.post-62021718452719962332011-03-07T09:24:11.296-08:002011-03-07T09:24:11.296-08:00It always breaks my heart to see such hatred in th...It always breaks my heart to see such hatred in the world. I get it- some people don't have the same beliefs as others but why is one life of more value than another? And who ever gave them the right to judge if a life is valuable or not.

So often people just don't know what's going on in the world. And if only Jamaica was the only place like this, but there are so many countries where it is illegal to be gay. When they started the "It Gets Better" campaign I kept thinking,... no, it doesn't, not always/for everyone.

There's so much that goes on outside the public eye that people really do need to know about. Once we know we can try to help change things.
