I’m honored to share my conversation with black activist and educator, Jamal Taylor. In this interview, Jamal opens up about his gay identity. Although it might be hard not to let others steal our joy, Jamal reminds us of the power of living authentically and extending grace and love whenever possible. As with all of the stories in this blog series, I hope you or someone you know in the LGBTQIA+ community finds them to be enlightening and empowering.
