Today we honor the 80th birthday of Marsha P. Johnson — a trailblazing activist, drag performer, and co-founder of STAR, who helped ignite the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement. Her legacy is a reminder that pride began as protest, and that liberation must include everyone. Thank you, Marsha.

Celebrating the intersectionality of Black LGBTQ+ Bodies

Black LGBTQ+ individuals embody resilience, diversity, and beauty. They navigate their multifaceted identities with grace, enriching our communities through their unique perspectives. Celebrating their intersectionality not only honors their contributions but also inspires the pursuit of a more inclusive world.

Erasing TQIA+ from the State Department web page is a cowardly attempt to make our people invisible-but we are not going anywhere. No act of censorship, no revision of reality, no fear-driven policy will stop LGBTQ+ people and our allies from fighting for our right to exist, to love, and to thrive.
Queer people have always persisted, even in the face of oppression, and we will continue to do so-louder, prouder, and more united than ever.Text on graphic
