Oh, this was so nice!
Anne Hathaway accepted an HRC Ally Award (I shall have to google exactly what that is) and made a lovely acceptance speech. The woman shows some serious class. (Not that she didn't before) :) As you may guess, there's a reason I post this clip in this particular thread:
OK, googled HRC. It's short for Human Rights Campaign, and works for gay issues/equality. The award dinner was on the 17. of March, apparently.

Thank you, Mikaela, that was incredible. I had no idea about Anne's commitment. And to honor Heath and Ennis as well!

I know, it was great.
I'll admit it, I am a waterworks. It made me cry!

This is great. HRC is huge - one of the biggest national GLBT rights organizations. When you see those little square blue bumper stickers with the yellow equal sign... that's HRC. They're a really impressive group because they've become so powerful... both in terms of private sector influence as well as political influence. One of the things they're most famous for (on a general awareness level) is they put out a buyer's guide (for all sorts of products in different categories) every year and rate companies based on GLBT friendliness and policies. I think they usually put it out around the holidays to have the most impact. I seem to recall that we had a thread about this past year's HRC buyer's guide in the Holiday forum.
Good for Anne! :)

I am frequently amazed by what little things send me into a tearful tailspin. I've been looking at pics of Heath all evening, watched 10Things, read posts about him. But Annie's small tribute to him in the vid just did me in.
