have a tremendous amount of intersectionality with other marginalized and diminish communities not only in the u.s. but around the world. so he would be reminding us that there's still a lot more work to be done. to be done what does that say? that's that. obviously your your uncle. >> you know, breaking barriers having this unfortunate tragedy that ensues life. but so many around so many people around the world come together to celebrate his legacy that has to be a tremendous honor for not only you but for the rest of your family as well. talk a little bit about what that means for you and the rest of your family. >> yeah. well, for me ous the only person that i could talk he died when i was a he was the only person that i could say i so different. i didn't tell him that i was, but but i told him that i felt different and he told me that that's a gift that are differences is ae

gift and that don't ever let the power and medicine that that difference can bring to the world. and so i think for me it's always his birthday is a joyous time he came into the world in 1930. he was very impacted on what was happening in europe when he was a what when he was in school school and the division that happened months communities in europe. and so for it's it's a time where can celebrate my own goal and his prophetic message. you know, it was it really was prophetic. didn't know who we didn't know when. but he really thought that he would be assassinated. he didn't want that assassination to go. and not be remembered from his famous quote that the bullets that's national my brains. destroy every closet door jonathan and just seeing that was a message for every community, not just the lgbt

community any community that is that people feel that they have to hide who they are, their the color of their skin, their religion. it's a message that no, we should be taking off those masks. we should be and the world should celebrate our authenticity. >> he had a great quote that said hope well, never be silent and i wonder with the hope that is out there today as we celebrate your uncles birthday. there are so many other ways that he's being honored not only here in san francisco in the bay area, but across the country were mentioning before to us about something in miami and in san diego. can you touch a little bit on those. >> sure. those city of miami beach where actually to have spent some had both the city council and the mayor voted for the street eating up to the to them. sorry to the convention center as harvey milk boulevard, montpelier france has renamed their convention this past week as
