We celebrate love, identity, authenticity, and with the utmost PRIDE for our LGBTQIA+ community! As we celebrate this month, we also bear in mind that Pride started as a protest of resistance and rebellion not that long ago. 🌈
Our vision of socialism is rooted in an unwavering belief in democracy, equality, and collective liberation to build a society where everyone has the power to shape the conditions of their own lives. One of the oldest and most persistent barriers to true equality and self-determination has been patriarchy, reinforced and sustained by capitalism. The gendered hierarchies it has created influences our institutions, relationships, and culture, with their effects most visible in the expectations and roles assigned on the basis of s*x and gender. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
This Pride Month, we encourage you to read about the historical significance of the Compton’s Cafeteria Riot, the Stonewall Riots, the Lavender Scare, and other prominent events in LGBTQIA+ history. By recognizing the protests and struggles of q***r and marginalized people in the past, we recognize that rights are not given, but are won. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
