Sean Carasso, of Falling Whistles, is a friend of mine from my youth ministry days. We keep in touch, and are working to figure out how to best support this organization and its message, but more importantly the people for whom this organization lends its voice. Thank you for making us aware. I look forward to the day that Oprah takes a hour to talk about this human atrocity and lends her voice to these young boys. And thank you, Emerging Women (http://www.emergingwomen.com) for posting this. In our venture for equality we have to remember that it is not a fight to get ahead, or promote only ourselves, but rather a legitimate fight for equality–which includes all those who are getting left behind and voiceless. That fight needs to make sure that we are not so focused on ourselves that we barely notice the death of a man…and many like him. Thank you, Emerging Women, for keeping that on the fronts of our minds. I am sad that Oprah missed that, but glad that you did not. Thanks, Melissa.
