- Eighteen-year-old Evan Young was supposed to be the 2015 class valedictorian
of Twin Peaks Charter Academy High School in Longmont, Colorado. But his
principal prevented him from giving his graduation speech after learning he
would announce he is gay. Instead, two weeks later, Young got to give his speech
at an Out Boulder fundraiser before an audience of hundreds, a number of them
politicians who congratulated him for his bravery. We air Young’s full address
and speak to him about his experience.
