God bless Nelson Mandela: 1918-2014
What a life.
Nelson Mandela died earlier today in South Africa.
He was 95.
My colleagues and I over at Gay Star News have posted some stories that highlight this great man’s work for the LGBT community.

Thank you Greg, my brother for posting this. I hope that more people seek to learn more about Mandela. We all face so many challenges and many of us overcome them. He taught us to not only over come but forgive the ones that made it harder for us. We have so much power if we have the courage to tap into it. To all of you out there whatever you are going through, you can and will make it. You’re loved!!! To Nelson Mandela I give thanks that I shared this earth with you for the time that I did. You are and will always be my Hero.
