A Good Man: Moving Animated Short Film by StoryCorps Tells the Human Stories of LGBT Pride

Since 2003, oral history nonprofit StoryCorps has been celebrating diverse perspectives through thousands of interviews and animated short films, seeking “to remind one another of our shared humanity, strengthen and build the connections between people, teach the value of listening, and weave into the fabric of our culture the understanding that every life matters.” To celebrate LGBT Pride Month, StoryCorps tells the story of Bryan Wilmoth — the oldest of eight siblings raised in a strict, religious home. This wonderful animated short film titled A Good Man, a collaboration with PBS directed by the Rauch Brothers, brings to life Bryan’s moving talks with his younger brother Mike about what it was like to reconnect years after their dad had kicked Bryan out for being gay.

Complement with history’s most beautiful LGBT love letters and these moving vintage photos of queer couples celebrating their love, then join me in supporting the wonderful work StoryCorps does.
