I remember sneaking into downtown Chicago as a teenager to attend a Pride parade<\/a>. The streets were lined with couples kissing, dogs with rainbow collars, stunning drag queens, flags, and all the glitter. It was like Disney World (but better), the happiest place on earth, a place where I felt I could be my authentic self. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Pride events might seem like one big party, Pride Month originated from a police raid and brutality. On June 28th, 1969, on a hot summer night, police stormed into the Stone Wall Inn<\/a>, a gay bar in New York City\u2019s Greenwich Village. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back then, raids were common. Without reason or warning, cops could harass, arrest and even force hospitalization on members of the LGBTQ+ community. But on this particular night, patrons decided to fight back. Hundreds joined and resisted arrest, broke windows, set cars on fire, and trapped the police inside the Stonewall Inn. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This riot prompted weeks of protests against injustice and brutality. One year later, to honor the Stonewall Riot, demonstrations were organized in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pride parades are now celebrated around the world, promoting visibility, LGBTQ+ rights, and honoring how far we\u2019ve come. In 2000, President Bill Clinton made June \u201cGay and Lesbian Pride Month,\u201d and then in 2011, Barack Obama officially declared June LGBT Pride Month<\/a>, making it the inclusive celebration we know it as today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year due to the pandemic, a lot of Pride events and festivals are canceled or postponed, but you can still support LGBTQ+ organizations and show Pride from home, so lez\u2019 get into it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Attend an event (virtually)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Most major cities are playing it pretty safe and opting for virtual Pride events this June. Grab your Pride merch, maybe a disco ball, and have a slammin’ Pride celebration in the comfort of your living room. There are several events all month, here are just a few:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Queer 26<\/a> is kicking off Pride Month with Pride Con 2021<\/a>: a virtual convention from June 1st-6th. Pride Con will feature a variety of virtual activities and events geared towards QTBIPOC\/LGBTQ communities, including “speed friending,” dance classes, interviews, open mics, and movie nights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los Angeles Pride<\/a> is set to host a free streaming TikTok concert, \u201cThrive With Pride Celebration<\/a>,\u201d on June 10 featuring Charlie XCX.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mark your rainbow calendars: Capital Alliance Pride<\/a> in Washington, D.C. is also playing it safe with a Colorful Pridemobile Parade<\/a> on June 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And last, on June 29th, Seeker<\/a> will conclude Pride Month with a positive and community-driven panel discussion on Clubhouse<\/a> covering all things LGBTQ+ travel: the best and worst places to visit, how local laws impact the LGBTQ+ community, tips for the ultimate experience, what makes LGBTQ+ travel different, and why it all matters. Speakers will include LGBTQ+ travel experts (TBA), and Slavi Arnaudov, board member at Asylum Connect (the world\u2019s first tech platform for those fleeing persecution due to sexual orientation or gender identity) and expert on LGBTQ+ immigration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Give to a LGBTQ+ charity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let’s be honest: one of the best things you can do during Pride month is donate. To amplify your donation, ask your company if they would match your donation. Or, offer to collect donations for friends and family and contribute one large amount together. Not sure where to start? Here are a few of our favorite LGBTQ+ non-profits:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center<\/a>, aka The Center, is a nonprofit organization serving the LGBTQ+ population of New York City and nearby communities. They provide health and wellness services as well as community connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Center On Halsted<\/a> is the Midwest\u2019s most comprehensive LGBTQ+ community center located in the heart of Chicago. Their programs range from cooking classes to yoga classes to temporary housing and food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pride Foundation<\/a> is an LGBTQ+ philanthropy serving the Pacific Northwest and has issued more than 8 million in grants and manages over 50 scholarships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genders & Sexualities Alliance Network<\/a> is a LGBTQ racial and gender justice organization that trains queer and trans youth leaders to build alliances for safer schools and communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AsylumConnect<\/a> is the world\u2019s first tech platform for those fleeing persecution due to sexual orientation or gender identity. Purchase an exclusive Pride t-shirt or hat on Seeker’s shop<\/a> through the month of June and 100% of the proceeds will go directly to AsylumConnect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember: strength comes in numbers. If you need help raising money for the LGBTQ+ organization of your choice, host a virtual dance class, yoga class, writing workshop, or social media training via zoom or Instagram live. Social media can be a powerful vehicle for rallying troops, use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Eat & drink<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Everyone’s gotta eat, so this June, make it a point to spend money at your local LGBTQ+ owned businesses and restaurants. You can search on websites like Open Table<\/a> to see which restaurants in your community are LGBTQ+ owned. If you\u2019re heading to the grocery store, here are some of our favorite Pride-ful brands:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Big Gay Ice Cream<\/a> is a New York-based Ice Cream shop that supports LGBT homeless youth. Order a delicious pint off Amazon Fresh<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add a little spice to your Pride with Shaquanda’s Hot Pepper Sauce<\/a>, made with a unique, bold blend of habanero and scotch bonnet peppers. As Shaquanda says: be the queen of your kitchen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

End your Pride with something sweet. Lagusta\u2019s Luscious<\/a> is a vegan chocolate company passionate about social justice, environmentalism, and bold flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Cozy up for a gay movie night<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What better way to celebrate Pride than by supporting queer art? Cuddle up with your cats and your softest flannel for a mega movie marathon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

LGBTQ+ representation in TV and film has taken a huge leap forward. According to GLAAD<\/a>, the amount of queer characters on primetime TV is at a record-high 10.2%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the most inclusive networks is Netflix, with popular Netflix Original shows like Orange Is The New Black <\/em>and Dear White People<\/em>. If you’ve already binged the heck out of those (yeah, us too), here are some must-watch LGBTQ+ films on Netflix to watch all month long:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First on the list is Feel Good<\/em><\/a>, a Netflix series that follows an up-and-coming comedian and recovering addict, Mae and her romance with her \u201cstraight\u201d girlfriend, George. The show is dramatic, heart-warming, and v v gay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Prom<\/a><\/em> is a lively feel-good movie about a group of failing Broadway stars who end up in middle America and do everything in their power to help a teen go to prom with her girlfriend. The film opens the door to conversations about the harsh reality of discrimination in rural America and the struggle of coming out to conservative parents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re looking for a good doc, watch Disclosure<\/a><\/em>, a powerful look into Hollywood\u2019s depiction of the trans community and its affect on American culture. It\u2019s a must-watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While we’re talking about docs, A Secret Love<\/a><\/em> shares the story of a lesbian couple who kept their love a secret for seven (!!) decades. It explores what it was like to be lesbian 70 years ago and the obstacles queer people go through to hide their sexuality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last but not least, Holding The Man<\/em><\/a> is a moving true story about two boys who fall in love at an all-boys high school. The film depicts everything from discrimination and loss to jealousy and heartache.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Volunteer <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Trevor Project<\/a>, the leading crisis intervention and suicide prevention for LGBTQ+ youth, offers a ton of virtual volunteer opportunities. Apply to volunteer<\/a> as a crisis counselor answering messages or calls from LGBTQ+ community members who are feeling suicidal or need a safe, non-judgmental place to talk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This month, look out for LA Pride\u2019s \u201cPride Makes a Difference<\/a>\u201d volunteer calendar, which will enable people to volunteer, both in-person and virtually, for local nonprofits that support LGBTQ+ people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most cities have LGBTQ+ organizations where you can volunteer in-person or virtually. For more opportunities, search for an LGBTQ+ center in your city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Support LGBTQ+ makers and creators<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

By supporting queer art, you both support a marginalized group and also cultivate an artistic environment full of unique perspectives. Here are some rad queer artists on Etsy that you can support today:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wander Free And Queer Shop<\/a> is owned by the lovely queer traveling duo, Danella and Ally, who live out of their RV and own a crochet business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Doodle Gems Art<\/a> is a gay sticker and accessories shop owned by an LGBTQ+ traveler, Gabi from @27<\/a>t<\/a>ravels.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s Madison Ryan Feminist Apparel & Goods<\/a> owned by Madison Ryan creates the cutest feminist apparel that is sure to piss off the right person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deer Queer<\/a> is an LGBTQ+-owned t-shirt shop for queers and allies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitchin\u2019 Design Co<\/a> is an angry feminist design shop with stickers, t-shirts, and more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Mentor LGBTQ+ youth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

LGBTQ+ youth have higher rates of mental illness and are more likely to experience bullying and lack of acceptance at home. A 2020 Trevor Project survey<\/a> suggests that the pandemic is especially difficult for queer youth who are often forced to spend more time in unsupportive environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider becoming a mentor to LGBTQ+ youth. Check for mentoring opportunities in your community by visiting LGBTQI-GNC Youth<\/a>, a national mentoring resource center. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Engage with your fave LGBTQ+ creators on Instagram<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Turn those post notifications all the way up for your favorite LGBTQ+ bloggers<\/a> and creators on Instagram. Follow their business accounts, share their content, save their posts, and send their profiles to your friends. By engaging with small creators, you’re amplify their voices, boosting the algorithm, and helping to share queer stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Want to go the extra mile for your favorite LGBTQ+ creators? Mention their name for paid opportunities, use their affiliate codes, buy their products, and sign up for their Patreon. Click the link in their bio to see what they\u2019re currently promoting or ask them directly how you can support them further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Shop LGBTQ+ brands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Use your buying power to support LGBTQ+ individuals and their businesses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking for a new cream cleanser? Dr. Botanicals<\/a> is a vegan, cruelty-free brand that provides the very best skincare for healthy, glowing skin and just so happens to be queer-owned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you love kombucha, consider swapping to GT Synergy Kombucha<\/a> to quench your thirst this June. Their mission is to help people live happier, healthier lives. George Dave<\/a>, the founder of GT Synergy Kombucha, is an openly gay man who just welcomed his first child, a son named Bloume. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peau De Loup<\/a> is an androgynous clothing brand for bodies with curves. They work to make people feel the same way on the outside as they do on the inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Early 2 Bed<\/a> helps people of all genders and orientations explore their sexuality to the fullest. Their site offers everything from sex toys, gender gear, books, games, and gifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of my favorite shops in Chicago is Humboldt House<\/a>, a feminist shop with everything from cute jewelry to home decor. Shop online or in-person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Share (or reshare) resources <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Informational carousel posts on Instagram have taken over and are the new way to share digestible information and news. Create a simple \u201cHappy Pride Month\u201d graphic, highlight historical gay activists, answer a commonly asked question, share your story with photos, or debunk LGBTQ+ myths. Or, reshare a Pride Month graphic you love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Need some inspiration? LGBTQ+ creator Matt Bernstein (@mattxiv<\/a>) is the queen of sassy educational carousals<\/a> and quite possibly the coolest person on the Internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

LGBTQ+ mental health creator, Zoe (@zoestoller<\/a>), has tons of educational carousels<\/a> and reels on their Instagram account and TikTok. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If Instagram\u2019s not your thing, share or reshare resources on Linkedin, Facebook, Pinterest, TikTok, Twitter, email, snail mail…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

11. Tell your story<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Storytelling is a powerful advocacy tool. People respond to personal stories, especially when they are from people they know. Visibility and representation are cornerstones of equality and acceptance. Simply sharing your LGBTQ+ story not only helps others who might be silently struggling, but also paves the way for acceptance for future generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you feel safe doing so, share your story: publicly on social media through an Instagram story and caption, or by publishing your thoughts on a blog or YouTube channel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sharing your story doesn\u2019t only apply to those within the LGBTQ+ community. We need allies too! If your daughter is gay, wish everyone at work a happy Pride month and mention you are a proud LBGTQ+ parent. Share how your experience has opened your eyes or ways you desire to see change. It’s a privilege to know someone who was brave enough to be their authentic self. Be proud out loud.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
