Pride is not cancelled. Pride is restored.

✊ Pride started with riots against police brutality.

✊ Pride parades were designed to be marches.

Pride is NOT a celebration.

👏 Pride is a DEMAND for the acknowledgement, empathy, and equality of LGBTQ+ people.

👏 Pride is a DEMAND for allies to become advocates.

👏 Pride is DEMAND for brands to amplify queer stories and voices (particular intersectional queer people and specifically Black queer & trans folx.)

Do not cancel your Pride events or initiatives. Adjust them.

🙌 Amplify Black LGBTQ+ voices.

🙌 Donate money to Black LGBTQ+ organizations.

🙌 Educate straight and cis people on the experiences of Black LGBTQ+ folx.

Do more, not less.
