South LA gay teen turned community leader through Latino Equality Alliance after coming out
BOYLE HEIGHTS, Los Angeles (KABC) -- Coming out of the closet is no easy task for many. For Latinx individuals, there are often additional cultural and religious struggles.
"I came out in 2014 when I was 14 years old to my mother and she was very accepting," said Alex Medina, youth reporter with the Boyle Heights Hit. "I had been holding that in and didn't know how my parents would react."
Medina, 19, is from South Los Angeles and said he was concerned his mother's reaction could have been the opposite.
"To some extent, I was very scared because my parents are very religious," said Medina.
Regardless, Medina sought guidance from the Latino Equality Alliance, also known as L.E.A., an organization located at Mi Centro in Boyle Heights for the Latinx LGBTQ community.

Hulu’s ‘Love, Victor’ tells journey of a Latino gay teen
RIO RANCHO, N.M. – The 2018 clip, “Love, Simon,” brought a fresh perspective to the first love, coming-of-age genre through the eyes of a same-sex attracted teen.
Exploring love’s innocence, isolation and dread of rejection, the film showed that a story about an LGBTQ traits could transcend and be included in the narrative of American life. But like most LGBTQ projects, it was told from the experiences of a white gay male.
“Love, Victor,” a spinoff series, premiered Friday on Hulu. It takes the space of “Love, Simon” to a recent level, adding class, race, and ethnicity in the mix as another teen walks through the same love conflicts.
The series follows Victor Salazar, a Latino high school learner struggling with his sexual identity and life in university. Portrayed by Michael Cimino, Victor’s working-class, conservative Catholic family relocates to Atlanta from Texas. Victor immediately reaches out to Simon via social media to lash out at Simon’s “perfect life.”
Victor believes he’s same-sex attracted, too. That is, until African American student Mia Brooks (Rachel Hilson), the school’s most accepted girl, falls in love with him.

I was 8 years old when I first create out what “gay” was. Correction, it’s the first time I heard the word. I didn’t fully understand the meaning. All I knew was it was something I didn’t want to be. The first time I heard the word “gay” was the way that kids that age always find things out. Or how I thought every kid found things out: entity told by a bully.
I was walking the short 10-minute hike from my elementary school in Oakland to my parents’ Mexican American restaurant. It was basically my second home; people in the neighborhood had known me since I was a child and watched me grow up. It was safe, it was a short distance, and I was responsible. My parents trusted me not to do anything I wasn’t suppo
