Sterling K. Brown Instagram – Now that baseball season is over, allow me to share a little bit of baseball history. Glenn Burke was the first @MLB player to publicly come out as gay during his professional career. When we fail to accept people for who they are, we oftentimes relegate them to the fringes of society where danger is most prevalent. I look forward to a world—be it in professional sports or mainstream society at large, where we appreciate each other’s differences, without having to vilify or fear that which we are not. Please allow Glenn Burke’s life be a reminder to us all to Love our neighbor, & Love God. @theaidsmonument #TheAIDSMonument 🕉
