In the Shadow of Fear (Harassment at West Point)

Mr. Weinstein, I am a cadet at West Point. I am facing terrible harassment from Christian evangelicals here above me in the Corps chain of command. . There are so many. In many ways I am like your daughter, Amber. I am female and I read, this afternoon, the news article below on your MRFF website. And when I read Amber’s words at the end of the article, I had tears in my eyes. She expressed my very same thoughts and emotions. I sent it to my parents and they cried too. I know I am not alone as many other cadets here too are being persecuted, alot of them are Christians. Amber’s words have given me new strength and courage. Please thank her for me and all of us here. And thank you MRFF for being there for those many of us in the shadow of fear. Please keep fighting for us, Mr. Weinstein. If we try to fight back for ourselves we only multiply the hatred against us. Please do not release my name, cadet rank or USMA cadet company or class year. One day I hope to meet you. Thank you. Thank MRFF. Thank Amber.
