On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

They kissed. The world blinked. Somewhere, a closet lost its grip. Be yourself—even if it rattles someone’s comfort. Especially then. Truth doesn’t ask permission. Be yourself. No edits. No apologies. #LGBTQ+ 🏳️‍⚧️ 🌈 🏳️‍🌈
