The Anniversary of Lawrence King's Death


Today is the anniversary of the death of Lawrence King. He was the young kid that was killed by a classmate, because he was gay.

If you are not aware of his story, please google his name. In so many ways, we were Lawrence. His story embodied many of our experiences as we were growing up, coming into our own.

I wish his family strength as the case continues and another day passes without him.

He is greatly missed.
