In the midst of a national wave of anti-gay bullying and violence, a powerful short video is revealing how one person can change a school - and the lives of hundreds of gay and straight youth - in just one day.

Academy Award-winning screenwriter Lance Black (“Milk”) is one of the many LGBT leaders participating in The Homecoming Project, Live Out Loud’s grassroots initiative that brings successful gay adults back to their high schools to share their stories, lessons, and hope with today’s students.

PKPR placed stories on the video in numerous blogs including Queerty, Gawker, The Miami Herald, Logo TV’s 365Gay.com, and AfterElton.
