Michael Thornton, a freshman from Naperville studying digital media arts and animation, carries an LGBTQ flag while crossing the pedestrian bridge Monday, March 20, 2017, en route to an astronomy class in Carbondale. Since President Donald Trumps inauguration, Thornton described receiving both positive and negative responses. I was in the library one day and this complete stranger came up to me and hes like, Hey Ive seen you around with the pride flag. I really love what youre doing and its really made a difference for me, and he gave me a cookie. Moments like that happen often enough for me to feel like Im making a difference for other people.
