On Monday August 6th, Rosie O’Donnell and Seth Rudetsky brought a busload of Broadway performers to the nightly Kremlin Annex protests in front of the White House. Their shirts said “Now Showing: Truth” and they sang America the Beautiful, Do You Hear the People Sing, Everybody Rejoice/A Brand New Day, Climb Every Mountain, and Let the Sunshine In.
Jim Obergefell was also there, and gave a short inspiring speech to the crowd, about how one person can make a difference. Afterwards, I got a chance to go up and thank him for what he has done, which was incredibly special for me.
