The Indiana Religious Freedom Restoration Act has sparked national outcry during the past week over fears that it would allow businesses to discriminate against the LGBT community. So much fear, in fact, that Gov. Mike Pence on Thursday signed into law revisions aimed to fix it.




Perhaps ironically, one of the best responses to the bill and subsequent controversy came from a Catholic school. Notre Dame, located in South Bend, Indiana, had members of seemingly every varsity sports team on campus participate in an incredible video. With athletes saying phrases like "If you can help us win championships, you can help us win championships" and "If you can play, you can play," the Irish emphasize a spirit of inclusion and acceptance.
