Pride Month
Celebrating Love And Acceptance. Content Warning.
Introduction: Today, as we remember the struggles endured for decades in the fight against prejudice, it is essential to acknowledge and accept individuals for who they are, irrespective of their identity or sexual orientation. While not everyone may support this movement, we aim to demonstrate that love knows no boundaries. How others love, how they choose to dress, or how they wish to express their identity should not be a cause for judgment. Instead, let us strive for tolerance and understanding. In the spirit of inclusivity, we will also share some lesser-known facts about homosexuality. Stay with us until the end to broaden your knowledge on this topic.

Is July 4th Truly a “Freedom Rings” Holiday in 2023?
As I sit in a local coffee shop on July 4th, in a strange but familiar city after having just fled the state of Florida to escape the horrific and detrimental anti-trans legislation, I can’t help but feel the anger boiling up inside of me. Today is supposed to be the celebration of freedom, yet here me and my people are, running to escape persecution and targeted discriminatory legislation in the United States. In less than a month, I had to empty a 12 12 storage unit with my entire life inside, taking only what fit in my van with me; I had to turn in my resignation to my career job and tell my team-which was the most difficult part of it all, and I had to say goodbye to my friends-turned-family and say goodbye to the life I built myself.

The March of Price: My Journey to Self-Discovery
I remember my first pride march vividly. A sea of colors splashed against the gray cityscape, a technicolor heartbeat thumping out the rhythm of acceptance and love. But I wasn't part of the vibrant rainbow; instead, I was a spectator, a young man trapped on the sidelines of his own life.

Religion and LGBTQ+ Community.
Introduction: Religion and its impact on society have long been intertwined, often providing solace, guidance, and a sense of community for its followers. However, one distressing aspect that continues to persist is the stigmatization of the LGBTQ+ community within various religious contexts. While it is important to recognize that not all religious individuals or institutions hold prejudiced views, there exists a historical and ongoing pattern of discrimination that merits discussion and introspection. This article explores the relationship between religion and LGBTQ+ stigmatization, highlights the consequences of such discrimination, and advocates for compassion, understanding, and inclusivity.
