ABOUT THIS EPISODE
On today's episode I give a brief Pride history about Stonewall Riots, Marsha P Johnson and Sylvia Rivera and some suggestions for organizations to check out as well as LGBTQ+ creators on Instagram. I also share my thoughts on businesses displaying support and their authenticity. My call to action for everyone is to dig deeper when you see a company showing support and if you choose to support, go directly to the organization or creator.
