We Are The Pulse of Orlando, by Ethan

"My name is Ethan Marc from Orlando, Florida. I was inspired to join the NOH8 Campaign when a hate-filled coward, armed with an assault rifle, entered my home-club & my safe place, Pulse, and took out my friends in cold blood.

Dancing, loving, they were living their lives. They were mowed down that night on June 12th in 2016, but they live on forever in our hearts, and have inspired my city of Orlando to come together against religious intolerance & hatred.

We are the pulse of Orlando and we are strong. We LOVE. We are not afraid. We have NO hate. We continue to dance..

Rest in peace my friend, Drew Leinonen."
