🌈 Thoughts on Pride Month and Performative Allyship 🥱 Rather than just adding a rainbow to your logo this Pride Month, here are 3 impactful ways to genuinely support the LGBTQIA+ community: 1️⃣ Support LGBTQIA+ Organisations: Offer both your time and money to groups that are making a real difference. 2️⃣ Create Inclusive Work Environments: Ensure your company's policies and practices are inclusive for all employees, present and future. 3️⃣ Collaborate with LGBTQIA+ Creators: Work with LGBTQIA+ creators on campaigns and initiatives, and make sure they are fairly compensated for their contributions. Just posting about Pride Month can lead to performative allyship. True support means backing your words with genuine actions. If you’re going to post about Pride Month, involve LGBTQIA+ voices in the creation and approval of your content... Got more ideas?

Hang in there, change-makers! 🌟 Sometimes, the road to inclusivity seems endless, right? 🛣️🚧 But trust me, every step counts! 🚶♂️🏳️🌈 Leadership in community organizing, especially for LGBTQIA+ rights, is a journey worth every effort. 🤝💪 Let's keep pushing for those safe spaces! 🌈 Be the safe space you want to see & let's chat about it! 💬👇 #InclusiveLeadership #LGBTQIAAdvocacy #SafeSpaces #JulioCRoman “Safe spaces can no longer be bound and limited to physical locations, but they must be found and created in each of us, allowing us to transcend the limitations of walls, rooms, and buildings”

June has come back around, and brands are *still* rainbow washing 🥱 Here are 5 meaningful things you can do this #PrideMonth, rather than change your logo to a rainbow 👇 1️⃣ Contribute to organizations directly supporting the LGBTQIA+ community (in the form of both time and money) 2️⃣ Ensure your internal policies and practices are inclusive to your existing and future workforce 3️⃣ Run DE&I training for your team to create a more inclusive working environment (hit up Laura Clarke if you want to make this happen!) 4️⃣ Partner on initiatives and campaigns with LGBTQIA+ creators — and please don’t expect them to work for free! (Ash has published some lovely content around this) 5️⃣ Engage with the LGBTQIA+ community to understand their perspectives, challenges and needs Brands often mean well, but meaninglessly posting about Pride Month can often create a false sense of allyship. Rainbows are more than welcomed…as long as the brand puts their money where their mouth is. If you really want to impact the equity, acceptance and inclusivity of the LGBT+ community, please positively commit to to these activities year-round. Ongoing support is much more meaningful, and helps create positive change for future generations! If you *are* going to post about #PrideMonth, ensure LGBTQIA+ voices are involved in the creation and approval of any content or campaigns you have going out. If you can think of anything else you’d like to see, feel free add other ideas in the comments 👇

We celebrate their resilience, their achievements, and their ongoing fight for equality. ✊ We're committed to creating a workplace that's truly inclusive, where everyone feels valued and respected for who they are. Here's how we're taking action: Advocating for LGBTQIA+ rights: We actively support initiatives that promote equality and acceptance for the LGBTQIA+ community. Educating ourselves: We're committed to ongoing learning about LGBTQIA+ experiences and identities. Challenging biases: We recognize that unconscious bias exists, and we're committed to creating a space where open dialogue and education can dismantle these biases. As Pride continues, let's all recommit to building a more inclusive world. #DiversityEquityInclusion #PrideAtWork #BeAnAlly

#ALLY: One that is associated with another as a helper: a person or group that provides assistance and support in an ongoing effort, activity, or struggle. Being an #ally of the LGQBT+ community means actively supporting and advocating for the rights and well-being of everyone in that community. To be an effective ally, we should work to educate ourselves on the diverse identities within the community, the history of LGBTQ+ rights movements, and the ongoing issues they face. If I'm honest, this is an ongoing effort for me. Not just within the LGBTQ+ community, but understanding the history, diversities, and ongoing issues of those of different races, origins, religions, and abilities. I am working every day to become a better ally, and proud to work for a company that is doing the same. Taking actionable steps is vital in demonstrating genuine allyship. Here are some practical ways from my friends at TriPride TN to support the LGBTQ+ community: ➡ Educate Yourself: Continuously seek knowledge about LGBTQ+ issues, terminology, and experiences. Read books, attend workshops, and engage with credible resources to deepen your understanding. ➡ Listen and Amplify Voices: Actively listen to the experiences and stories shared by LGBTQ+ individuals. Amplify their voices by sharing their narratives, achievements, and struggles. Centering their experiences helps create space for authentic representation. ➡ Stand Up Against Discrimination: Speak out against homophobia, transphobia, and any form of discrimination. Challenge stereotypes and biases, and be a vocal advocate for LGBTQ+ rights in your personal and professional life. ➡ Use Inclusive Language: Be mindful of the language you use. Respect and use individuals’ chosen pronouns and gender identities. Avoid assumptions or making insensitive jokes or comments that may perpetuate harmful stereotypes. ➡ Support LGBTQ+ Organizations: Contribute to and volunteer with local LGBTQ+ organizations that provide support, resources, and advocacy for the community. Your involvement helps amplify their impact. ➡ Foster Safe Spaces: Create and promote safe and inclusive environments where LGBTQ+ individuals feel comfortable expressing themselves without fear of judgment or discrimination. Be an ally in your personal relationships, workplaces, and social circles. Happy Pride Month, everyone! #safespace #PRIDE
