2006 Equality Rider: Diane Bedwell

January 1, 1998 by soulforce

Name: Diane Bedwell
Hometown: Ellensburg, Washington
Age: 23

Statement:
Freedom and equality. Two values many Americans hold close to their hearts. Looking at the GLBT community should make anyone realize that these values are restricted for many segments of the population. We need change, but more importantly we need to open our minds and hearts to be the change. The most effective way to open minds and hearts is through honest, open conversations. I’m standing up for freedom and riding for equality.

Sponsors:
Diane has been sponsored a total amount of $1320.00.
