People who have never heard me speak on stage have been very complimentary. I’ve been doing my best over the last for years to speak to people all across San Francisco. Many of you have heard me speak on the steps of city hall and in different clubs and organizations. I’ve been focused on coming into every community to talk about our efforts to improve public safety, talking about ways to secure out communities through our cultural districts, talking about ways to address poverty and homeless and talking about ways to grow and diversify our democratic party to include the voice and experience of those who are often denied a seat at the table. I am proud the people are finally hearing me and what must be said. #SF #SanFrancisco #SanFran #HainesForSF

I came out in 1995 - 27 years ago. If I had stayed in the closet until today. I would have missed a significant portion of our LGBT movement. I would not be able to represent our queer community with 27 years of experience as a OUT individual. In service to our queer community as an OUT individual I have had the honor of serving you on: San Francisco Pride Board Pink Triangle Park and Memorial Board Harvey Milk Plaza Board The LGBT Advisory Committee of the Human Rights Comission Sacred Space Advisory Board The Police Chiefs LGBT Advisory Forum Castro LGBTQ Cultural District Had I not come out, I would not have been able to stand up for our Trans Brothers and Sisters when Trump tried to deny their right to serve in our military. Had I not come out, I would not have been able to help organize our response to the ALT right coming to San Francisco. Had I not come out, I would not have organized demonstrations on the steps of City Hall commemorating Bayard Rustin, the organizer of the first March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. Had I not come out, I would not be a member of: The Harvey Milk LGBT Democratic Club The Bayard Rustin LGBT Coalition The Alice B. Toaklas Democratic Club. I am damn proud to be both queer and OUT!

Memory from Castro Street Fair 2018⁠ #SF #HainesForSF⁠

For this year's National Bullying Prevention Month, take a stand against bullying and join Spirit Day Thursday, October 17, the largest and most visible LGBTQ anti-bullying campaign. In middle school, I was assaulted. I was jumped in the hall. My neck cut with a sharp object. I bled. My mother recalls that the school administration says that I retaliated successfully, defending myself against three young boys. This memory is blocked from my mind entirely. These were the kind of kids living highly challenging and disadvantaged lives , bullies, they harassed me through till the 9th grade. I and other young boys they thought could be gay or weak. This is strange because they each exposed themselves to me over the course of the year. Their crude displays not reciprocated. I can’t remember the fight but I do recall the conversation with the school’s Principal and my family. I was asked if I wanted to press changes. I was allowed to make the decision on my own. I decided to not press charges. From then on, I have always stood up for myself and for others. Thankfully, it wasn’t to my throat that got slit and the weapon wasn’t serious enough to cause lasting damage. I still bare the scare today. According to GLSEN’s 2017 National School Climate Survey, LGBTQ students experience bullying at a significantly higher rate than their non-LGBTQ peers. The effects of bullying on LGBTQ youth are serious, complex and long-lasting. LGBTQ students report feeling unsafe when on school grounds, often resulting in missing a significant number of classes or dropping out because of the continuous harassment they face at school.
