Just finished watching #Will&Harper. What a lovely story highlighting the power of friendship. I laughed, cried, cursed (I'm talking about you, Texas), and cried again. Thank you, Harper Steele, for sharing your journey with us.

Please stop referring to Anita Bryant as a "crusader." She wasn't a crusader, she was a mean-spirited bigot.
