Interview Begins.
CP: Thank you so much Mitchell for fielding these questions and for all you have done for Campus Pride and for the LGBTQ community. So, Mitchell, what do you hope college students will get out of reading Crisis?
MG: That no matter what they are going through, they are not alone. Others have had the same feelings and experiences; many people their age, especially in parts of the country outside the “bubbles” of places like New York and L.A., are still going through it. Crisis can be a gift for them to give their parents to let them know the kind of pain they have been put through. And hopefully start to put it to an end.
