Crystal Gray: 'I am proud of who I am'

Transgender woman aims to start advocacy group here

The last time readers met Crystal Gray, she put on a brave face and talked about the torment she endured growing up on the receiving end of bullying.

Gray, of Wonder Lake, opened up to readers about her childhood as an outcast, her suicide attempts, and the fact that she was born Christopher Gray.

As a transgender woman, and as the face and muscle behind the United States Transgender Advocacy group, also has made Gray a target for hate crimes, she said.
