Central Texas students respond to Texas Senate Bill 242 in PFLAG Austin essay contest

Published on March 28, 2017 under CommunityImpact

PFLAG Austin, an LGBTQ support group, held its third annual Deidre Furr Essay Contest awards ceremony March 23 at Southwestern University in Georgetown. “America is full of isolation and silos. We’re trying to see how diversity can be beneficial,” said event organizer Mark Skrabacz, minister of San Gabriel Unitarian Universalist Fellowship. “We know from agriculture that monocultures are no good for the soil.” The ceremony included a proclamation from Georgetown Mayor Dale Ross, who named March 23 the third annual “Deidre Furr Day.”
