This Is Important, You Should Watch It of the Day: To promote his effort to raise production funds for a documentary about anti-gay discrimination, filmmaker Ryan James Yezak released a seven-minute compilation of clips cataloging the conquered battlegrounds of the gay rights movement scattered amidst a war yet to be won.

“I am not a second class citizen,” Yezak says. “You are not a second class citizen. Right now, the laws in place (and lack thereof) say that we are. Let’s change that.”

There are few things that make me truly fired up but this does and always will. Nothing really affects me emotionally like this does. This video is incredible. I hope that things continue going in the direction that they have been and that, eventually, people can look back on videos like this and be shocked that it was even a question whether or not gays could have the same rights as everyone else.
