October 11, 1987 - More than half a million people flooded Washington, D.C., demanding civil rights for gay and lesbian Americans, now celebrated each year as National Coming Out Day.
Many of the marchers objected to the government's response to the AIDS crisis, as well as the Supreme Court's 1986 decision to uphold sodomy laws in Bowers v. Hardwick.
The NAMES Project AIDS Memorial Quilt was first displayed there, bringing national attention to the impact of AIDS on gay communities, a tapestry of nearly two thousand fabric panels each a tribute to the life of one who had been lost in the pandemic.

Today is #NationalComingOutDay. It's a day of #LGBTQIA+ visibility and representation.
There is freedom and joy in living your own truth. Everyone comes out on their own terms. For some, safety is a concern. If you're not ready to come out, for any reason, that's okay. There is a whole community waiting to love and support you when you're ready.

In last night's dream I was shopping in a thrift store and found a white shirt and fuchsia pants covered in colourful sequins, which, on inspection, had long ago been a costume from a musical at my home town theatre (possibly Technicolor Dreamcoat). And I decided I didn't need them, until it occurred to me that they would be the perfect thing to wear in next year's pride parade.
Anyway, happy Coming Out Day.

Regardless, I appreciate the coincidental queer representation on #NationalComingOutDay!

Finally, if someone comes out to you please understand the degree of courage it took for them to speak up. Understand the level of trust they have in you. You might feel uncomfortable but, I can assure you, it's nothing compared to how they're feeling. Have patience. You'll be glad you did. ❤️

I never thought I’d live long enough to see this:
https://dallasvoice.com/a-message-from-the-president-on-national-coming-out-day/
My own Jurassic-era coming out felt pulling-off-a-bandage quick. When the dust cleared I knew who were my enemies, who disowned me, who no longer trusted me around their kids, and who were my real friends —practically all at once. Not something I’d recommend to every #Queer, but it was worth it to get past so much drama in one go.
