Why 100 years?
The mail we receive will not be read by anyone in our lifetime.
What would you say if you knew there would be no consequences? If nobody you know will read what you send?
By holding mail for one hundred years, we're hoping that you can be your truest, most vulnerable self. You can be angry, you can celebrate, write about those that have hurt you, the ones you love. There is no risk in being authentic because it will stay in an envelope until at least 2125.
The LGBT+ experience can be isolating. Especially in such a turbulent moment, it is important for us to actively create and ensure our legacy. It's imperative to preserve what LGBT+ people have endured in the 21st century so that future generations can find themselves, across time, in our stories.
After one hundred years, the mail will be opened, scanned, and shared. Be as free and open as you want.
