Anna, thank you from the bottom of my heart for all you are doing for the LGBTQ community, especially our youth. I just read about you on the LGBT Athletes and Allies Facebook page and you represent our community remarkably. For what it’s worth, I was a student-athlete in college in the South during the 1980’s and was bullied and harassed after coming out. I know that many of our LGBTQ youth will be spared such horrible experiences because of the work that you are doing. You have a new fan down in Memphis, TN! Thanks again.
