While Hillary Clinton’s UN speech heralding gay rights as indistinguishable from human rights was certainly historic, a lot of us in the ADD generation couldn’t pay attention for all 30 minutes of it.
Luckily, the State Department has released an easily digestible music-video version, in which highlights of the talk are spliced together with inspiring imagery from rainbow-tastic gay Pride celebrations around the world.
Perhaps it’ll make the rounds on Facebook. It could even be shown at progressive high schools and colleges across the country. Do we smell a Gay-Straight Alliance orientation video?
But to really capture the kids, we’re thinking T-Pain could autotune some of Hill-Dawg’s choice comments: “Gay r-ights-s-s-s. Hu-u-u-u-man r-i-ee-i-ghts.” Add in a verse from Cazwell about how going both ways makes for crazier nights and we’re golden.
Hey it worked for Antione Dodson, right?

Everyone else should too. If you can spend an hour online or watching TV, you can spare 30 minutes that can change your life (well, mostly to closed minded people). I really think she should be the next president now.
