Another Young Hero of Our Times: Zack Wahls


Nineteen-year-old Zack Wahls made this testimony before the Iowa state legislature back in February, but this three-minute YouTube of his testimony is again making the rounds because of the Anti-Family Amendment ("Amendment 1") now on the North Carolina ballot for next May
8th.

A sixth-generation Iowan, Wahls finished his testimony on an impassioned note. "In my 19 years, not once have I ever been confronted by an individual who realized independently that I was raised by a gay couple. And you know why? Because the sexual orientation of my parents has had zero effect on the content of my character."
