I got this from a Sawatdee member . Surprised it has not been posted.

This is an awesome song by the Broadway community, in the wake of LGBT suicides. It evokes memories of "We Are The World" from 25 years ago. It deserves forwading to as many gay friends as possible. This is my start.

Jacob Clemente star of Billy Elliot is among the many singers, and appears to be the youngest person there. Although he doesn't have a solo, he can be seen in several of the group shots. Bravo to Jacob and the Broadway community for coming together to create this great song and video!

I'm waiting for the hairdressers and ballet dancers to do something similar before I join in the celebration.

Don't know if I like the execution (the song that is) but yes, this is fantastic... good on them.

If anything, the campaign, as well as directly reaching out to gay individuals, should also have an impact on the wider community by raising awareness and possibly improving their understanding of young gay people and their challenges.
