Betty Crocker Celebrates Gay Families On National Coming Out Day

On Friday, the 25^th anniversary of National Coming Out Day, Betty Crocker, a General Mills company, released a video celebrating diverse families.

The video is part of the company's Family Project.

The nearly 3-minute video titled Betty Celebrates All Families 2013 features a compilation of interviews and footage taken from Gay Pride events.

“By showcasing diverse families and continuing their strong support of LGBT families, Betty Crocker is helping to show Americans that the key ingredient to a family is simply love,” GLAAD spokesman Wilson Cruz said in a statement. “On National Coming Out Day, GLAAD joins Betty Crocker in celebrating out and proud LGBT people and their families around the country.”

The video concludes with a simple statement: “Our differences make us unique. Love makes us the same.” (The video is embedded on this page. Visit our video library for more videos.)
