On National Coming Out Day (11 October), Canadian singer-songwriter Eric Bolton describes his own coming out journey, from being a conservative Christian preacher to finding his “inner light” as an openly gay man.
When I think about coming out, I think about the deep and powerful mosaic of stories that have been shared around the Pride community for who knows how long. Even just this week I met someone new, a fellow gay man, and it didn’t take long before the question of “when did you come out” came to the surface.
