Earlier this year, Wade gave anemotional speechat theNAACPImage Awards as the couple accepted the President’s Award. They used the opportunity to speak about championing the fight forLGBTQrights, giving the speech just one day after Zaya’slegal name change and gender assignment.
“Zaya, as your father, all I’ve wanted to do is get it right. I’ve sat back and watched how gracefully you’ve taken on the public scrutiny,” Wade said. “And even though it’s not easy, I watched you walk out of that house every morning as yourself. I admire how you’ve handled ignorance in our world. I admire it that you face every day. To say that your village is proud of you is an understatement.”
He continued: “As your father, my job isn’t to create a version of myself or direct your future. My role is to be a facilitator to your hopes, your wishes, your dreams.
Union praised the NAACP for persevering “over a century of relentless challenge, pain, triumph and change,” as well as standing “with us again at the foot of a very new era of activism, a new era that demands our collective answer to one simple question. ‘Will we fight for some, or will we fight for all of our people?'”
