Pride & 2SLGBTQIA+ Elders Pride would not exist without queer and trans elders. Every right we have, every space we gather in, every word we now speak aloud without shame was carved out by those who came before us, often at great cost. Many faced arrest, exile, institutionalization, or silence.

Pride & the Banning of 2slgbtqia+ Books Pride is a celebration of visibility, but visibility is under attack, especially for those at the intersections of queerness, race, gender, and class.
