NBA player Jason Collins has marched in Boston Pride, just a few weeks after becoming the first active male professional athlete in one of the major North American codes to come out. The former Celtic marched alongside Massachusetts Congressman Joe Kennedy III, his former roommate at Stanford University. Collins wore a T-shirt that read #BeTrue. In April, Collins wrote in an article for Sports Illustrated that the decision to go public came when Kennedy marched in last year's parade and Collins didn't feel that he could join him. Collins also said the Boston Marathon bombing reinforced the notion that things can change in an instant, so he might as well live truthfully. Jacqui Stanford - 10th June 2013
