A Touch Of Gay #65: Keep Building Utopia
<p></p><p><strong>We Must Keep Moving Forward No Matter What</strong></p><p><strong>Check In:</strong></p><p>* Camping weekend with the chosen family</p><p>* SLATE EV pickup truck pre-order</p><p><strong>From “Surviving Anti-LGBT Politics Part 10”: Keep Building Utopia</strong></p><p>“During the darkest days of the AIDS crisis, we buried our friends in the morning, we protested in the afternoon, and we danced all night. The dance kept us in the fight because it was the dance we were fighting for. It didn’t look like we were going to win then and we did. It doesn’t feel like we’re going to win now but we could. Keep fighting, keep dancing.” -Dan Savage</p><p><strong>We Must Keep Moving Forward No Matter What</strong></p><p>For many of us there has always been a fight. For most of us there will be a fight ahead. We must have something worth fighting for, a win in our days worth the blood, sweat and tears. In the fight we must never forget to keep building our lives as we have always wanted them to be. We must not lose ourselves in the fight.</p><p><strong>Continue reaching for your dreams</strong>, knowing these trying times will cement them deep in your foundations of life. Take new opportunities to educate yourself, learn new skills, try new things – build your better self. Come out on the other side of these times with a stronger passion, skill set, purpose and direction.</p><p><strong>Keep building community.</strong> Build new alliances and friendships with the people we meet in the battles, share your passions and your energies with them. Join in the celebrations, the fights, and the communion of your brothers and sisters. Welcome new friends into these circles and give them the support they need too. We all need each other now more than ever.</p><p><strong>Never stop creating beauty and celebrating our culture. </strong>We are beautiful people who express our color and vibrancy in ways many on this earth wish they could. It’s our superpower, and the one many of those who oppose us are most afraid of. Art, culture, color and celebration of life is why we are who we are. Full speed ahead.</p><p><strong>Be who you are without shame or apology.</strong> Our beauty and capacity to love is the thing that makes us special. We need to be visible, vibrant, colorful and joyous. Our example of a good life is the one we must never hide, edit down, discount or put in the closet. Be seen, be heard, you are good.</p><p>We deserve our place on this earth and in the fabric of society. We are worthy of equality, love, respect, freedom, and our place at the table of life. In this fight, keep your eyes on the main goal of your life and never top building toward your utopia.</p><p><strong>Please drop your comments on YouTube or email them to </strong><a target="_blank" href="mailto:daddysam@atouchofgay.com"><strong>daddysam@atouchofgay.com</strong></a></p><p>* <strong>Website: atouchofgay.com</strong></p><p>* <strong>Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky: atouchofgaypod</strong></p><p>* <strong>Audio Podcast drops on all major platforms every Sunday</strong></p><p>* <strong>YouTube Podcast drops a day early on Saturday</strong></p><p>* <strong>Our Podcast plays on GayPHX.com streaming radio every Monday at 10:00am</strong></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
