A dedication to the Orlando victims, the video included presentations by Lady Gaga and many more
An 18-minute video released by the Human Rights Campaign yesterday, pays tribute to the victims of the June 12 hate crime and massacre at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida during a Latinx show.
The video, directed by Ryan Murphy, features performances by 49 celebrities who speak in detail about the 49 fallen members of the LGBT and Allied community.
“The victims live on in our memories,” read the white lettered, black background words used at the beginning of the video. “These are their names … These are their stories.”
The HRC and Murphy are asking viewers of the “Stop the Hate” video to visit the HRC page to sign up and “support legislation that will ensure LGBTQ people are safe and equal in every community.” By supporting Orlando, demanding action and joining the campaign, the HRC believes that change will come about through this effort.
