The Outset Presents: The Pride & Joy Series
For each day in the month of June, we’ll feature queer celebrations found ALL year.
Pride month kicks off tomorrow and, with it, a deluge of corporate rainbow washing, tokenism, and the distillation of our existence down to a simple, performative, hashtag: Love is Love.
The truth is, who we love is such a tiny part of Pride and ALL Queer Joy.
Loving each other is the easy part.
Pride is us noting all the OTHER parts, the parts that bring us joy because of how special they are:
-Being able to pee
-Finding someone to cut your hair
-Paperwork that isn’t cishet centered
-Our chosen families
For the month of June, The Outset will be publishing our Pride & Joy series. Each day will feature a different joyful part of our queer experience —- Pride BEYOND rainbows, booze and reductive hashtags.
See you tomorrow!
