The Book of Pride: LGBTQ Heroes Who Changed the World | Mason Funk

pick

This was a great collection of interviews of LGBTQ people of the older generation, documenting their fight for rights and change, big and small. It is a reminder that the LGBTQ community has always been around and a beautiful way to remember their legacy. Each interview was short & easy to listen to and super inspiring

July Nonfiction #ReadingBracket2023
I only managed to finish one nonfiction book last month but it was a good one and probably would have been a top read regardless

It‘s Pride Day here in Bradenton, FL. The “Don‘t Say Gay” Bill is headed to the state Senate on Monday.

I‘m an out and proud gay teacher.
I will be gay.

#pride #gaypride #lgbtq
I will say gay.
I will show my kids (who all know that @BookishMarginalia is my wife) that you can be a happy, LGBTQ+ adult.

“When society as a whole moves beyond treating us ‘nicely‘ to welcoming us with open arms, when we can live openly and fully as who we are, when we can bring our entire grab bag of perspectives, talents, and sensibilities, our slightly jaded, salty sense of humor, our exaggerated mannerisms, our pumping hearts, and our outlaw sexualities - when we can bring all of who we are to the altar of the world, the world will be a better place.”
