Hope Story Circle #16 - July 11, 2020

Our special guest is Kendra Mon, who talked of leaving legacies and living legacies. Her parents shaped and molded her passion to advocate for a Department of Peacebuilding, and this day is the 19th anniversary of the bill being introduced to Congress. Her moms, Phyllis Lyn and Del Martin were activists for the Lesbian community, authoring the book, Lesbian Woman. The documentary about them and their work, No Secret Anymore: The Times of Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon, is available free on Amazon Prime and for rent on Vimeo. Kendra read from the book, in part, “…The Great Society can only be great as they know, appreciate, love, understand and express their diversity and individuality. No longer is toleration acceptable. The Lesbians, along with all oppressed people, want freedom — and we want it now!” Check the calendar of Events at www.peacealliance.org - join us at the next Hope Story Circle and share your emerging stories!
