Has anyone seen this? I saw it today on GoodAsYou, reposted from queerty. This is a beautiful, eloquent speech by a very brave girl who is "breaking her silence". [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InN6bt0B8x0&feature=player_embedded[/YOUTUBE]
Thedreamwatch, thanks for sharing this with us. Watching it has made me feel like my blood was boiling.
I know! It's crazy intense. But also beautiful. I am not that brave, I would probably cry and not be able to go through with it. She barely flinched and I didn't hear even a single wobble in that voice. I wish I were that strong, and hope that someday I might be able to take Kayla's example in stride and stand up for who I am and what I believe the world ought to be.
What a brave and amazing girl. Having the courage to stand there and break her silence. It made me cry. Thanks for posting it.
Yeah, I totally cried. I wish that it hadn't cut off at the end, I would have loved to have heard the applause. ---------- Post added 27th Jan 2011 at 08:49 PM ---------- [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZBcb97zKeo[/YOUTUBE] For some reason, the girl in the OP video reminds me of the Childlike Empress. Something about the inflections in her voice and her expressions. Weird.
