Sally Field Receives Equality Award And Delivers Emotional Speech On Gay Son Sam

After being introduced by her son Sam Greisman, the visibly emotional Oscar-winning actress said, "He grew up wanting to be just like his big brothers — athletic and rambunctious, not to mention a little bit macho... But Sam was different, and his journey to allow himself what nature intended him to be was not an easy one. As his mother, I consider it one of the great privileges of my life to be part it."
