    Sharp and striking. A powerful call to attention in so few words. The silence speaks volumes.

    Your words serve as a powerful reminder

    Well said, something important over shadowed by economic greed

    Thank you for raising awareness. Think we need to be doing more of this. Can no longer rely on the government or the press to fight causes. Well done Kendall.

    Shouldn't need a government to permit you to celebrate your history. Do it on your own,

  • Thank you for the reminder, though it's October in the UK , we got LGBTQ+ History Month in the UK

  • Gotta agree with Sid. I've not seen anything about it

    It does seem to be lost in a vacuum sadly

    Too lost for sure, because at this time no DEI I remember no matter how much noise! #inclusion
