Tell Us Your Good Deed

I'm a director for ‘Camp’ Camp for LGBTQ+ adults. I've been an out activist since 1990 - and worked at GLAD Law thru the 90's - and was part of the staff that secured Vermont Civil Unions the marriage equality - especially with my family in Maine. #TeamRediker - Mom, Dad, Sister

Why are you participating?

I am an activist who fights, fights, fights, and I love the chance to be funny and irreverent. We all need that right now!

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I served over 20 years in the military, fought for equal rights for women and LGBTQ+ folks and ran a couple nonprofits supporting, empowering, and building community for women, veterans, LGBTQ+, and mental health

Why are you participating?

I have spent most of my life living in cross sections and identities that don't match my surroundings. Joining the military during DADT is a huge example!

Tell Us Your Good Deed

I overheard an elderly couple saying they wish that they had a chair or somewhere to sit at the Nighthawk birding excursion. I offered them the chair I had and they took turns resting.

Why are you participating?

With so much polarization and hate in this current political and social moment, I want the world to see the complexities that make us all uniquely human.
