2017 National Coming Out Day Book - Final v2

“I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.”

-

Mother Teresa

This book is an effort to create some ripples of our own and celebrate National Coming Out Day on October 11, 2017. We asked Members of Mosaic, Altria’s LGBTQ Network, which includes LGBTQ employees and Allies, to share their personal coming out stories – whether they are emotional, inspiring, or funny – to highlight that we all have a story to tell. Each of the stories contained in this book has power – the power to create many ripples that will move people and bridge divides. Our hope with this book is that these stories will change our organization and bring us together.
