"All of us who are openly gay are living and writing the history of our movement. We are no more—and no less—heroic than the suffragists and abolitionists of the 19th century; and the labor organizers, Freedom Riders, Stonewall demonstrators, and environmentalists of the 20th century. We are ordinary people, living our lives, and trying as civil rights activist Dorothy Cotton said, to ‘fix what ain’t right’ in our society.” - Senator Tammy Baldwin,

About the Host
Justin Mezetin
Growing up religious, I valued service and community. When I first came out I would always look for ways to give back volunteering at the HRC, the DC community center and other organizations.
Over the years, I've connected with so many nonprofits, entrepreneurs and other leaders in the Queer community who have so many amazing ideas that can help our community thrive. The challenge is they are sometimes overworked, stressed out, and for the nonprofit leaders often needing to find more funding.
I believe that as Queer people, we know the challenges of our community best, and we are best suited to provide the solution. So I'm launching this podcast to help leaders share their visions of where our community can go, and how they are taking action today to make it a reality.
My hope is that listeners can find solutions that resonate, and support these leaders by using their products, services, volunteering or just sharing their message more broadly.

I believe we can all be change makers in our neighborhoods, local communities, country and world. Impacting the lives of queer people in my neighborhood is just as valuable and important as changing a national law, or taking a case to the supreme court. I'm looking to find people making these changes at ALL levels, because every story matters.
