Happy Pride Month, John!
|
This year, we’re doing more than celebrating (but trust us, we’re doing plenty of that too!). We’re standing strong with the LGBTQ+ community all month long through advocacy, education, and organizing.
|
From targeting transgender troops to cutting HIV funding, the Trump administration has made it clear they’re not interested in protecting our most vulnerable communities. But don’t worry, John: We’re not about to sit back and let them undo decades of progress without a fight.
|
So if you’re ready to learn how to take a stand this Pride, we have some events we’d love for you to be a part of:
|
First, on Tuesday, June 24, we’ll be hosting Pride Under Pressure: The Trump Admin on LGBTQ Rights. While you’re there, you’ll learn about some of the Trump Administration's rollbacks on LGBTQ+ protections and what you can do about it.
|
|
Then, on Wednesday, June 25, we’re exploring the importance of digital organizing at Plug Into Pride: Digital Organizing for LGBTQ+ Rights. You’ll learn the importance of digital organizing, see some successful examples of digital organizing in action, and take direct action online to advocate for the LGBTQ+ community.
|
|
Finally, on Thursday, June 26, we’re going out with a bang at All Fun & Ga(y)mes: A Pride Celebration. We’ll be celebrating all the progress we’ve made and looking forward to a brighter future for everyone! Get excited to close out Pride Month with an evening full of community, positivity, and some pride-themed games!

I can’t wait to see you there, John!
