“I think the love and loyalty has a lot to do with it. I feel like, you know, people are embracing each other. I think us as human beings that’s what we look for. We look for some type of connection. And especially a lot of the people that are involved in the movement are people who you know struggled or are from communities that really had no outlet. So, everyone embraces each other and they feel at home. For me that’s what I feel.”
