She told us; \u201cI want to see a future where gender and sexuality are unremarkable aspects of identity. I want the world to be better for younger generations, and that means we need to teach them to recognise and reject systemic injustices.&nbsp;We need to teach them to respect, love themselves and each other as unique individuals and, we need to teach them that we are not settling just because it has got \u2018better\u2019 \u2014 but that we will keep working until we are all safe, accepted, and free.\u201c&nbsp;A cause we are right behind. Nobody has to feel alone. There are always people ready to support once you create moves to make life better.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find out more at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/itgetsbetter.org\/\">https:\/\/itgetsbetter.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Written by Kym Nelson<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are all about positive words to steer the spirit up, which is why the \u2018It Gets Better\u2019 project caught our attention.&nbsp;The mission of this [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":891,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23,25],"tags":[192,193,194,195],"class_list":["post-890","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-lgbtq","category-love","tag-it-gets-better","tag-it-gets-better-project","tag-lgbtq","tag-los-angeles"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.6 -
