Description:
“There is reason for hope,” 2020 TIME100 honoree Billy Porter said by way of introducing Kelley Robinson ahead of her toast. Porter took care to highlight Robinson’s intersectional work when it came to LGBTQIA+ rights as president of the Human Rights Campaign. Robinson used her toast as a way to highlight the ways in which America has progressed and the work that lies ahead, as well as the integral role that queer folks have played in the country’s social change.<br/><br/>“Don’t tell me change isn’t happening, because my family is proof,” she said. “We are all truth in this room. Read the history of America, the story of America is a story of hope. It’s a story of progress. It’s a story of change—and lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer, and trans folks. We have always been at the forefront of that change.”

_what-would-earth-be-like-with-no-moon.webp "Earth with no moon—sounds kinda eerie, right? Without that big ol' rock in the sky, our nights would be way darker, like, seriously spooky. Plus, tides would be way less dramatic without the moon's gravitational pull, so no epic beach waves, sorry surfers. But here's the kicker: our tilt would be all wonky without the moon to stabilize it, so say goodbye to those consistent seasons. And don't even get me started on how it'd mess with wildlife and ecosystems—talk about a total game-changer for planet Earth! So yeah, life without the moon? Definitely not your average day in the universe.Animation is created by Bright Side.<br/>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/>Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com <br/><br/>Check our Bright Side podcast on Spotify and leave a positive review! https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD34jRLrMrJux4VxV <br/><br/>Subscribe to Bright Side: https://goo.gl/rQTJZz <br/>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/>Our Social Media:<br/>Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brightside <br/>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brightside.official<br/>TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brightside.official?lang=en <br/><br/>Stock materials (photos, footages and other):<br/>https://www.depositphotos.com<br/>https://www.shutterstock.com<br/>https://www.eastnews.ru<br/>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>For more videos and articles visit:<br/>http://www.brightside.me")
