I think that these three have stuck with me because I related to each of them in very personal ways. They are my brothers, my sons, they are me.
My brother is a transgender activist in Georgia, and if not for a combination of courage, luck, and intelligence, he could have very well ended up a martyr like Brandon. There is a chilling dehumanization that courses through the stories he has told me. Eric Rudolph bombed a club that he and I had shared drinks at.
