We Hold These Truths to be Self-Evident - Let Freedom Ring by Empath

Joshua is living the American Dream, but he knows that his perfect life in the Land of Lincoln is a lie.  He’s about to get honest, and all it will take is some click bait, a dead president, and an empty bottle of Scotch to get him moving.  A coming out story, and a reflection on mankind's inalienable rights.

Trigger warning: profanity as well as references to: sexual assault, slavery, civil rights, the Civil War, and alcohol.

A very compelling read. This is a really good take on the coming out story and is very well written, indeed. In a way it is perfect as it is.

Thanks @Gary L!  I was ready to leave it as a short story.  It can certainly be read that way.  But I too want to get to know Joshua and Marcus.  There are enough open-ended threads to follow, at least for a while.  I appreciate your taking the time to read it and respond!  Much love!
