In the midst of that amazing time in my life came the worst, and that was when my friends just started dropping dead. They were sick today and dead tomorrow. And when you would go to the hospital to look for you friend they would be out in the hallway on a gurney pushed up against a wall dying for help, dying for love, dying to be saved. And some of them with that sign on their gurney that said “do not touch”. And they suffered, and people wanted to act like they weren’t good people, kind people, wonderful people, somebody’s son, somebody’s daughter, somebody. // SHERYL LEE RALPH receiving the Human Rights Campaign’s National Ally for Equality Award 2022.
