The Empty Call of Allies
I suppose it is hidden well, Till it rises with the tide's swell. The secrets of a community That must flee, cry and plea.

Ryan S. ThorntonPublished 18 days ago in PrideYou Don’t Need To See The Documentary “What is a Woman?”
Recently the trailer for the film “What is a Woman?” has been going around. The “documentary” (a word I use loosely) is from the mind of conservative transphobe Matt Welsh (I think that’s his name, I can’t be bothered to look it up), a man who has made a history of trolling LGBTQ+ people. The documentary is not very good, and its points have been debunked thoroughly. It was also made in a very duplicitous manner, where a fake trans organization was set up to lure activists and medical professionals into interviews.

Hey, Vocal Community. There are a few days left to June, so I feel like it should be safe to come right out and say this (that; and I, nor anyone else, should ever have to feel ashamed or afraid of a calendar date to speak the truth of their experience).
Kent BrindleyPublished about a month ago in PrideFight for Gender Equality and Equity
In America, almost everyone is aware of the 1950-60s Civil Rights movement. An historical event that opened the eyes of many Americans to racial injustice and the fight for equal rights for all Americans regardless of race. Most people are aware of Dr. Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech as well, highlighting the importance of racial desegregation and judging others on characteristics and not skin color. While the movement did force congress to implement the Civil Rights Act of 1964, banning racial discriminatory practices in America, that was just the beginning. Today, racism still exists, but it’s not as strong as it was 60 years ago. For the most part, many people look down on racism and the whole world witnessed the power of racial injustice with the video evidence of George Floyd‘s murder in 2020. The fight against racial injustice continues to be the forefront of every civil rights battle, but we have entered a new era for the Civil Rights Movement.

Indie Artist NewsPublished 2 months ago in PrideDo we still need Pride?
Pride is a protest. This is a phrase that everyone in the LGBT+ community knows and says proudly. We say it recognition of the battles it took to win our freedom in some countries, and in recognition of the fight still to be had in others.

It’s International Pride Month. For many in the LGBTQ+ community, this is a month of celebration. Globally speaking, I can only hope there are many joyous events to bring our community together. Love is love, right? Everyone should have the right to love who they want to love and live the way they feel is best for them.
Iris HarrisPublished 2 months ago in PrideHow To Be An Ally
Every year, LGBTQIA+ events are held in June in honour of Stonewall. As we approach June, it's important to learn how to be inclusive and welcoming during pride month - the one month of the year where the LGBTQIA+ community can be open and celebrated. Or, that's the way it's supposed to be, anyway. Even during pride, a lot of queer youth and adults feel excluded and afraid, especially living in specific communities. As a queer ally, it's important to stand up for your loved ones, and to stand up to those who make us feel threatened or scared.
