John Amaechi Speaks Out on the Candidates

February 07, 2008

In a February 5th article for The Daily Voice (click here to read) former NBA star and best-selling author of Man in the Middle, John Amaechi, expressed his opinion on the major presidential candidates, outlining what each will do for the American LGBT community.

Emphasizing the importance of progress, he notes that change is a continuous process, and not just a singular goal to be achieved through elections. Demanding “equality without asterisks, without caveats,” Amaechi states that although he is undecided, he will vote for the person he believes will help change the US for the better.

A forthright speaker, Amaechi changes lives with each event. Undefined by labels, he opens minds with his candor and passion. For more information on bringing him to your campus, contact your Keppler representative.
