Harrison Ghee, the star of Broadway musical Kinky Boots, along with other LGBTQ+ dancers and actors. 'After our wedding, my wife and I came face to face with homophobia from someone close to us. I can't explain that emotional pain,' Mae explains of the song's inspiration. 'The thing that got us through was our accepting friends and family who looked at us and told us that our love is not wrong. 'Be Not Afraid' pays homage to the LGBTQ+ community and the struggles we have faced to be ourselves. LGBTQ+ love is so beautiful. That's all I wanted to capture with this video,' Mae says. 'The beauty and bravery.'
