Real Life, Real Time Stories


The Rhea Murray Website
To my ear Rhea Murray's eloquence is on a level with that of Martin Luther King, Jr. Her courage on the frontlines of homophobia fills us with pride mixed with fear. The hypertext will lead you to several of Rhea's essays and to Dixie Beer's messages about Rhea, her son Bruce, and the town of Seymour, Indiana.

Looking for the Easy Way Out
On June 7, the day after he came out to his sister, Dan began corresponding with the PFLAG-Talk Email list. He'd recently moved home with his parents. He has a good relationship with his mother, but his father is homophobic, abusive, and alcoholic. On June 10 he came out to Mom and although she asked him not to tell his father, he knew that he would have to very soon. But then, Mom changed her mind. On Sunday, June 23, Dan learned that Mom had told Dad 5 days ago. Tomorrow he will talk to Dad.
