Today, the U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation that would add "actual or perceived sexual orientation, gender, gender identity and disability to federal hate crime laws."
Of course, it still has to be passed by the Senate and signed by the President, but this is a hopeful step. Deep down, I do believe that the passage of time will see more positive changes, but there will be steps forward and back before we get to a fairer society. So today sees a step forward. May there be many more (and soon)!
