Constance McMillen, LGBT America’s prom queen, was invited to the Pride Reception at the White House hosted by President Obama.
We hope that this reception will change the conversation, not just be an honor party, but a party where conversations and minds will be changed for a greater good.
According to the Advocate, the White House will hold a reception on June 22 in honor of Pride month. There really are no facts on who is invited, if the President and First Family will be in attendance, and White House staffers are keeping silent.
“Charlie Ferrusi, and his prom queen, Timmy Howard. Both boys (yes, BOTH are male) are Gay and both couldn’t believe it when they heard their names announced for king and queen at the dance Saturday night.”
Hudson, NY took on a different reaction-a supportive one! Hudson is proud of the results and couldn’t be happier. Ferrusi’s mother gushed at the news and always told her son to be who he is and that we are all equal.
Congrats to the Prom King and Queen or King and King, we will have to rename high school titles with the ever-changing, progressive times
