In October 1998 in the middle of the prairie outside Laramie, Wyoming, Matthew Shepard, a 21 year old student at the University of Wyoming, was tied to a fence post, severely beaten, robbed, , tortured and left, alone, to die. His body — battered, bloody, barely clinging to life — was discovered eighteen hours later. He was rushed to the hospital and put on life support. He died five days later. The reason for this brutal crime? Matthew Shepard was gay. 10 years later the Matthew Shepard legislation was signed into law by President Obama making it the first meaningful Hate Crimes legislation signed into law in the United States. Come and see this story re-enacted and remember why we must never forget this young man who gave his life in the name of love.
