Five years ago today, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the right to same-sex marriage. That evening, thousands of people gathered to celebrate in front of the White House, decked out in every color of the rainbow. Malia and I couldn’t just sit inside and watch this moment pass us by. So we snuck past the Secret Service agents in the White House, past our wonderful kitchen staff and into the humid air of a D.C. summer night. We joined in with everyone as anonymously as we could, just two more proud Americans cheering on progress and the simple—and newly constitutionally protected—fact: love is love. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I’ll never forget that evening. Not only was it the culmination of decades of hard work and struggle from countless LGBTQ+ activists, it had come during a particularly heavy week for many Americans. Earlier that day, Barack and I had attended the funeral of Reverend Clementa Pinckney in Charleston, South Carolina. Here was another instance of thousands of people coming together—this time in mourning of the nine beautiful souls we lost at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church—to share in their grief, their resilience, and their hope for a better world. It was a terrible tragedy, bound up in the sin of racial hatred. And yet—we all left that service overwhelmed by grace. Amazing grace.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣
Thinking back to that day reminds me of how much strength we can find in one another, in good times and in bad. We’ve seen it again over these past few weeks. Our grief and anger have been channeled into passionate protests. Lifelong organizers and first-time marchers of all backgrounds are joining hands and pushing for change. And we’re beginning to have new conversations, and see the start of some real, measurable progress. It makes me think back to nights like this one, five years ago today—a night that reminds us that the fight is worth it. Because a fairer, more just, and more loving world is always possible.⁣⁣

Did you know that teens who belong to the LGTBQ+ community are five times more likely than heterosexual teens to attempt suicide?⁣
⁣
In part, this is because the messaging they’re given in the world around them doesn’t resonate with who they are. But here’s the good news: evidence shows that if these kids receive any support to counter that – either at school or home – their risk of suicide decreases substantially. ⁣
⁣
This is where Morgan Walsh and Keiko Feldman come in.⁣
⁣
When Morgan and Keiko recognized there was a need for representation in school libraries, they took matters into their own hands. In particular, they created Gender Nation to work directly with California public schools to fill school libraries with books LGTBQ+ kids can identify with.⁣
⁣
In episode 19 of And Then Everything Changed, Morgan and I discuss how her own family’s journey inspired her to co-found this nonprofit, which now has a thriving booklist curated with input from educators, Gender Spectrum, PTAs and principals. Plus, Morgan shares some of her favorite recommendations for books that offer messages of support and inclusivity.⁣
⁣
To hear all of Morgan’s powerful story and advice, be sure to listen to the entire episode on your favorite streaming platform. And then tell me in the comments what your favorite book was as a kid! ⁣

Today @gendernation was awarded The Honorary Service Award in Education for the First District PTA and we were blown away! We were honored just to speak at their Founder’s Day and introduce so many schools and educators to the work we do donating #lgbtq+ affirming books to public school libraries, but to have this happen on top of it all was so moving. Thank you! 🌈❤️🙏🏻

So incredibly moving watching @dwyanewade so eloquently and lovingly talk about his 12-year-old daughter, who will now go by Zaya. “Me and my wife, Gabrielle Union, are proud parents of a child in the LGBTQ+ community,” Wade told Ellen on Monday afternoon. “And we are proud allies as well. We take our roles and our responsibility as parents very seriously. So when our child comes home with a question, when a child comes home with an issue, when a child comes home with anything, it’s our job as parents to listen to that, to give them the best information that we can, to give them the best feedback that we can... Once Zaya came home and said, ‘I want you to call me Zaya and I’m ready to take on this,’ I looked at her and said, ‘You are a leader. And this is our opportunity to allow you to be a voice. Right now it’s through us, because she’s 12 years old, but eventually it will be through her.”
