Twenty-five years after joining the Air Force following 9/11—and after being purged as a transgender service member—Bree Fram reflects on solidarity, freedom, and an aid convoy to Ukraine.
Thank you for this article Bree. I have a lot of emotions coming to the surface today but your story brought tears. I have been so ashamed of our current administration's actions and anti-american policies and your ouster just adds to the many actions of that shame. Your heart and passion is what this country needs more of. Thank you for your service.
Thank you for this excellent essay, Bree. I agree that there is so much horror going on but we have to look up and look forward and look for the best in us. We are there. We love. We care. We must stand as one voice against those that seek harm no matter the location. Thanks for your dedication and service to our country. May we be a more caring and perfect union as is outlined in our Declaration. #HoldFast
I am not a world affairs analyist or political pundit, I am a retired therapist and former middle school teacher. So my heart and mind are always bent in the direction of what's best and most evolutionary (not necessarily revolutionary) for human beings. And I have to say, Bree, that although I cried on the original 9/11, and like you especially as the acts of flight 93 were revealed, I also cried today. For one, because a person of your sensitivity is in the world, where your words and actions can inspire us, and secondly in outrage that you should have been so badly treated by people in power who should have elevated your service for all to see. My family has a generational history of military service, and I, for one, salute you.
Thank you for your beautiful and moving essay, Bree. But most of all, thank you for your many years of service to our country.
Thank you, for your service a d love of democracy. 🫡
Well said
