’13 Reasons Why’ Actor Brandon Flynn Comes Out in Message Urging Equality for Australia

Brandon Flynn

Brandon Flynn, who stars in the Netflix drama 13 Reasons Why, came out of the closet in an Instagram post urging Australians to vote ‘yes’ for marriage equality.

Wrote Flynn:

Just saw the “vote no” message in the sky, looming over Sydney. Thank you for raising money and hiring on a plane to write your lack of support amongst the clouds. I hope your hate and lack of understanding fades, just like those words will.

Too many of my friends have been kicked out of their homes, kept in the closet, beat up, killed, ridiculed by church and state, institutionalized… and you are scared that if we vote YES, you won’t be able to show your hate for Us.

F**k that. We’ve been scared shitless our whole lives thanks to all the stigmas that surround Us, stigmas that were set in place by the same kind of people who flew that plane over Sydney. We’ve fought, we’ve come out bravely even in our fear, and you wrote a message in the sky because you’re scared. Equality takes courage, it worries me that too many people in this world lack the balls to stand up for what is right.
