Is Richard Fowler Gay?

Fowler is a proud gay man and has opened up publicly about his sexuality on several occasions. He has regularly fought for the rights of the youth and African-American LGBTQ community.

In October 2017, Fowler published an article on the American news website huffpost.com mentioning the event of Trump’s inauguration as the US President.

Thus, he was strongly urged to raise awareness and empower every individual like him. He wrote,

“For a long time, I hid my true self from the public, but that inauguration morning the hiding was over. That morning, I understood that my story and presence was a weapon against all the bullies, all the cowards and all of those that thought Trump’s victory would push people like me back into the closet; back into the shadows of society.”
