Join us this Sunday night as we profile Michael Huerta, an amazing young man who produced a video in celebration of his 24th birthday. Yes, 24. His message is important and truly in the spirit of Pride Month. We'll have Michael's full interview and video posted in our Show Notes at www.outbeatyouth.com

We will also be talking with Lee Wind who created the website, "I'm Here, I'm Queer. What The Hell Do I Read?" This is a one-of-a-kind resource for LGBT youth. Lee has a passion for writing and reading. He created this website specifically for LGBT youth, not so much to recommend what to read, but more to provide a central place to look for fiction and non-fiction books with an LGBT theme.

This show will be a special one as it airs the evening of the 40th Gay Pride Parade in San Francisco. We'll be there all day talking to people about why they have pride this year. It's so easy to forget during all of the celebration why we can enjoy a parade today. It's because of the sacrifices and struggles those who came before us endured. As think about why you have pride this year, take a look at some of the images in this video and think about how far we have come as a community.
