As your father, all Ive wanted to do was get it right.
Yet, Wade explained it has been 15-year-old Zaya who inspired him.
I want to take this moment to publicly speak to our daughter Zaya, he said, in part.
Zaya, as your father, all Ive wanted to do was get it right.
I admire how youve handled the ignorance in our world.
I admire it that you face every day.
To say that your village is proud of you is an understatement.
My role is to be a facilitator to your hopes, your wishes, and your dreams.
So baby, thank you for showing the world what courage looks like.
Im proud that I was chosen to stand in place as your father.
Throughout Wades speech, audience members appeared to be visibly moved.
Onstage, Union, Zayas stepmom, was touched as well.
Will we fight forsome, or will we fight forallof our people?
BothWade and Union have stood with Zayasince she went public with her true self in February 2020.
