Hillary Clinton: The story of America
is a story of hard-fought, hard-won progress. And it continues today.
Groom: I can’t believe we’re

Hillary Clinton: New chapters are
being written by men and women who believe that all of us, not just some, but
all should have the chance to live up to our God-given potential.
Groom: The reason I can’t

Hillary Clinton: This progress was not
easily won. People fought and organized and campaigned in public squares and private
spaces to change not only laws, but hearts and minds.
Groom: I remember all of the
thoughts that ran through my head when I started to realize that I was gay. Why
me? What am I gonna do? Will anyone love me? I’ll never get married. That’s the
one that really hurt. I’ll never get married.
Hillary Clinton: And thanks to that
work of generations for millions of individuals barriers that once prevented
people from enjoying the full measure of liberty...
Groom: I felt sad.
Hillary Clinton: ...the full
experience of dignity...
Groom: I felt alone.
Hillary Clinton: ...and the full
benefits of humanity have fallen away.
Groom: I’ll never feel
alone. I love you.
....
Hillary Clinton: Some have suggested
that gay rights and human rights are separate and distinct. But in fact they
are one and the same. Being LGBT does not make you less human. And that is why
gay rights are human rights and human rights are gay rights. |
