Falling Into Despair, & Rebounding Into Politics With Cesar Zepeda
Manage episode 367136776 series 3390919
Caesar Zepeda struggled with his sexuality before coming out in a big and fabulous way in front of millions of people. After rejection from his family, he reached a low part of his life but rebounded by being an activist in his community and being an example for those younger than him. Today he is the first openly gay man on the city council in Richmond, California, located in the San Francisco Bay area.
In addition, the state of California has unique laws regarding the procedures for elections that end in a tie. Hear Cesar talk about the game of chance that won him the election (spoiler alert: later counts showed there was not a tie after all and he had indeed won by votes)
Be motivated during these tough times by his inspiring story of resilience, determination, and giving back to the next generations.
