The Most Incredible Facebook Miracles of 2014

Every year, Carden Crow and his wife drive an hour to Tulsa, OK, to celebrate Gay Pride. This year, the couple couldn't make the trip and created an open Facebook event for a backyard picnic with a rainbow flag backdrop. Within a week, 50 people had joined, and by the time the actual picnic rolled around, over 600 people turned out for the event in Tahlequah, OK. Carden had accidentally planned the town's first-ever LGBTQ celebration! He turned the event into a nonprofit straight alliance promoting equal rights for the citizens of Tahlequah and the rest of Oklahoma.
