This morning, my friend Anne Gullick, co-chair of the local chapter of the Tennessee Equality Project, and I went on Live at 9 in Memphis to discuss Tracy Morgan, anti-gay bullying and what it’s like for gay youth when they hear negative messages about who they are from people they respect. One thing I talked about with hosts Marybeth Conley and Corie Ventura was that we still have a situation in places all over this country where the life of a gay teen is often luck of the draw — some of them have the love and support of their friends, families and churches, and some instead hear negative messages from all sides about who they are.
