  • Define Diversity In America

    1518 Words  | 7 Pages

    As a member of the LGBT community, I see America through the eyes of someone who has had to struggle to gain acceptance from others and themselves.

To me, Americans are like phoenixes; we can rise from the ashes of our pasts, and build ourselves up creating our own sense of liberty and freedom. I grew up in a traditional Christian household, so I was very sheltered as a child. When it came to anything the church thought was a sin, I was never told about it, so I didn’t know what being gay meant until I was 12 years old.
