149: You’re Never Too Old To Say – Judge Me Not – James Merrick

From a young age, the fear of God caused him to tremble in his
boots about his secret. Then, in his 40's he could no longer live
within that secret, and he realized he had to be who he was, a gay
man. Then he made national headlines by taking a stand as a gay
educator, fighting for the right to teach in his classroom, when
parents saw him as a threat to their children. All because people
judged who he was and who he was meant to love and share a life
with. James Merrick shares is truth and his journey about being
judged as a 40 Plus gay man. About James James Merrick lives in
