  89. After a game of pin the tail on Heidi, they count the lip stick vote and find that everyone voted for Darienne – except for Darienne. She voted for Jaymes. Jimbo chose Darienne as well. So I guess it really was Darienne’s time.&lt;br&gt;
  90. &lt;br&gt;
  91. The next day in the Werk Room, Lala and Alexis continue their “will they won’t they – but you know they will” relationship and Ru tells the queens that they will be competing in “The Snatch Game of Love”, a pivotal moment in the &lt;em&gt;All-Stars &lt;/em&gt;competition. It separates the drag queens from the drag superstars.&lt;br&gt;
  92. &lt;br&gt;
  93. We start to learn who the queens will be impersonating. For her very first “Snatch Game, Lala has chosen&lt;em&gt; Love &amp;amp; Hip Hop &lt;/em&gt;star and “plastic surgery advocate” Sukihana. Jaymes, who is also participating in her first “Snatch Game” decides on Jennifer Coolidge and it feels like it’s going to work in her favor.&lt;br&gt;
  94. &lt;br&gt;
  95. Jessica chooses to step into the shoes of &amp;nbsp;the “Dolly Parton of Puerto Rico” Iris Chacón, while Alexis, who won her season’s “Snatch Game” is taking on the difficult task of impersonating the &lt;em&gt;Golden Girl &lt;/em&gt;icon herself, Bea Arthur.&lt;br&gt;
  96. &lt;br&gt;
  97. Kahanna tells Ru that she will beat her face with cheese puff powder and pay homage to her drag mother Coco Montrese. I have mixed feelings about queens impersonating other queens. It hasn’t worked for everyone. We also learn that Heidi is going to don a peg leg and be Black Beard the pirate… that’s a choice and I can’t wait to see how it turns out.&lt;br&gt;
  98. &lt;br&gt;
  99. &lt;br&gt;
  100. Jimbo won “Snatch Game” in &lt;em&gt;Drag Race Canada &lt;/em&gt;with a killer impression of Joan Rivers. However, she has not participated in the game with RuPaul because she left &lt;em&gt;Drag Race vs. Canada &lt;/em&gt;before she had the chance. For &amp;nbsp;this “Snatch” Jimbo reveals that she will be Shirley Temple. This is going to make Ru laugh, for sure.&lt;br&gt;
  101. &lt;br&gt;
  102. It’s time for the first round of “Snatch Game of Love” with the first snatchelor, actor and &lt;em&gt;Las Culturistas &lt;/em&gt;co-host Matt Rogers. He has the choice of Black Beard (Heidi), Iris Chacón (Jessica), Coco Montrese (Kahanna), and Jennifer Coolidge (Jaymes) – who is the clear winner of this bunch.&lt;br&gt;
  103. &lt;br&gt;
  104. Jaymes effortlessly navigates the “Snatch Game of Love” with clever jokes, comebacks, and energy. The worst is Kahanna, unfortunately – and she knows it. Heidi knows it to and she pretty much kicks her while she’s down during the game. Kahanna mentions this in her confessional and I feel like this is going to come up again.&lt;br&gt;
  105. &lt;br&gt;
  106. As for Jessica, she’s there and she does a fine job… but it doesn’t really go anywhere.&lt;br&gt;
  107. &lt;br&gt;
  108. Matt ends up chooses Jennifer Cooldige – and it’s the right choice.&lt;/p&gt;
  109.  
  110. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-06/drag-race-5-as.jpg?itok=eO_WGC2v&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  111. &lt;br&gt;
  112. Round two of “Snatch Game of Love” welcomes &lt;em&gt;Saturday Night Live &lt;/em&gt;actor and &lt;em&gt;Las Culturistas &lt;/em&gt;co-host Bowen Yang as the snatchelor. He has a the choice of a nice lineup of beauties including Bea Arthur (Alexis), Renee Graziano of &lt;em&gt;Mob Wives &lt;/em&gt;(Kandy), Sukihana (Lala), and Shirley Temple (Jimbo).&lt;br&gt;
  113. &lt;br&gt;
  114. All four queens are performing fairly well and Bowen and Ru are both having a good time, but as expected, when it’s Jimbo’s turn, she devours the stage with this bizarrely frightening and entertainingly psychotic impression of Shirley Temple. Kandy and Lala perform well and Alexis comes in a far second place from Jimbo. Everyone is great but when Jimbo starts frenetically tap dancing on stage, it was over for the others.&lt;br&gt;
  115. &lt;br&gt;
  116. Bowen ends up choosing Shirley Temple and it is a match made in heaven.&lt;br&gt;
  117. &lt;br&gt;
  118. But before either Matt or Bowen go on their dates, Ru demands that they must lip sync for their love. They do and everyone lives happily ever after… until the next day’s runway when someone will be sent home.&lt;/p&gt;
  119.  
  120. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;4&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-06/drag-race-as-1.jpg?itok=IxdqkLEv&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  121. &lt;br&gt;
  122. Before the runway, Kandy does the funniest tap dancing performance in Jimbo’s Shirley Temple wig in the Werk Room that deserves an Emmy. Things take a turn when whispers of shady behavior start to make their way through the room.&lt;br&gt;
  123. &lt;br&gt;
  124. Kahanna admits to Kandy that she did not like how Heidi treated her during “Snatch Game of Love”. “I’m already under the bus, I don’t need you to roll on top of me…that’s not what sisters do,” said Kahanna.&lt;br&gt;
  125. &lt;br&gt;
  126. Then Kandy says she heard that Heidi was talking sh*t. Apparently Heidi went to Jimbo and told her that Kandy wanted to eliminate her from the competition and that Jimbo needed to watch out for her. Kandy denies these allegations.&lt;br&gt;
  127. &lt;br&gt;
  128. Wait, aren’t the three of them supposed to be in an alliance? And remember Heidi’s “tea” that was supposed to burn this competition down? Kandy claims the tea is not true.&lt;br&gt;
  129. &lt;br&gt;
  130. Eventually, Kahanna lays it out on the table and tells Heidi that she was pushing her buttons while she was struggling. Heidi didn’t see it that way and felt that Kahanna might be able to volley back jokes to which Kahanna responds: “I wasn’t even hitting jokes Ru was hitting me!”&lt;br&gt;
  131. &lt;br&gt;
  132. Heidi is apologetic but as Jaymes points out in her confessional, “Heidi was playing ‘Snatch Game’ just as God intended.”&lt;br&gt;
  133. &lt;br&gt;
  134. Things seem to be simmering down but then Kandy decides to confront Heidi about the Jimbo situation.&lt;br&gt;
  135. &lt;br&gt;
  136. “Why did you tell Jimbo I was coming for?” asks Kandy point blank.&lt;br&gt;
  137. &lt;br&gt;
  138. “Because you did,” answers Heidi, motioning across the room. “Alexis?”&lt;br&gt;
  139. &lt;br&gt;
  140. Now Alexis is involved?! This is getting juicy.&lt;br&gt;
  141. &lt;br&gt;
  142. All parties not involved in this spat are metaphorically eating popcorn and soaking this drama in with excitedly raised eyebrows and dropped jaws.&lt;br&gt;
  143. &lt;br&gt;
  144. Alexis is silent and has an “oh sh*t! what do I do now?!” look on her face.&lt;br&gt;
  145. &lt;br&gt;
  146. Heidi says Alexis was present when Kandy said this. “Tell the truth, shame the devil,” Heidi declares.&lt;/p&gt;
  147.  
  148. &lt;p&gt;Alexis admits that she does not want to be involved but it is way too late for that – but she is nodding. Jimbo asks again, &amp;nbsp;“Did Kandy say that to you?”&lt;br&gt;
  149. &lt;br&gt;
  150. “I am nodding because Kandy said that to me,” Alexis says uncomfortably.&lt;br&gt;
  151. &lt;br&gt;
  152. “I said I’m gunning for her?” Kandy chimes in.&lt;br&gt;
  153. &lt;br&gt;
  154. Alexis pauses, thinks for a moment and responds, “No.”&lt;br&gt;
  155. &lt;br&gt;
  156. Now it is a she said, she said story and somebody is lying.&lt;br&gt;
  157. &lt;br&gt;
  158. With one eyebrow, Kandy is trying to gather the moment to make things clear, but it feels like nothing is going to be clear.&lt;br&gt;
  159. &lt;br&gt;
  160. The energy in the room has shifted and not for the better. It is silent.&lt;br&gt;
  161. &lt;br&gt;
  162. “You can hear a rat piss on cotton,” says Heidi. “I feel very alone and it’s not sitting right with me.”&lt;br&gt;
  163. &lt;br&gt;
  164. Heidi reiterates to Jimbo about what she heard from Kandy. She then says, “Let’s have a good time tonight and when it comes to voting, vote Heidi.”&lt;br&gt;
  165. &lt;br&gt;
  166. In an unprecedented moment, Heidi is clearly struggling to find words or a grasp of hope and says that she is going to leave because she doesn’t like what the competition has become.&lt;br&gt;
  167. &lt;br&gt;
  168. Heidi leaves the Werk Room and normally we would think, “They do this all the time!” But this time, it seems real – because it is. The queens – including Kandy – try to talk her out of it, but Heidi has made her choice.&lt;/p&gt;
  169.  
  170. &lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  171. “At the end of the day, she’s my sister – and I don’t want my sister to go!” says Kandy.&lt;br&gt;
  172. &lt;br&gt;
  173. “I have done what I came here to do,” says Heidi in her confessional. “I came here to have fun, show my growth and have a kiki, honey… and I have done all that.”&lt;br&gt;
  174. &lt;br&gt;
  175. It is official: Heidi has left the competition.&lt;br&gt;
  176. &lt;br&gt;
  177. Alexis has tearful moment that makes no sense but is more about her than the actual moment. Jimbo is left wondering who she could trust.&lt;br&gt;
  178. &lt;br&gt;
  179. Ru walks on to the main stage in a patriotic-lite number that shows off her spectacular gams. She welcomes judges Michelle Visage, Ross Mathews as well as special guest judges, our “snatchelors”, Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers.&lt;br&gt;
  180. &lt;br&gt;
  181. This week’s runway category is: “Ruveal Yourself!” – and we all love a good ruveal! Ru also mentions to the judges that Heidi has decided to remove herself from the competition and this was Michelle’s reaction:&lt;/p&gt;
  182.  
  183. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-06/Screen%20Shot%202023-06-02%20at%204.41.42%20PM.png?itok=pH07Hygm&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  184.  
  185. &lt;p&gt;Here’s how the queens fared on the runway:&lt;/p&gt;
  186.  
  187. &lt;ul&gt;
  188. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jessica: &lt;/strong&gt;A fabulous homage to her season when she dressed as a chicken.&lt;/li&gt;
  189. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kahanna&lt;/strong&gt;: Loving this showgirl lewk, but her reveals could be a little bit more imaginative. Love the burlesque energy, though.&lt;/li&gt;
  190. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jaymes&lt;/strong&gt;: She puts on an on-brand muppet burlesque runway that ends with exposed boobies.&lt;/li&gt;
  191. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kandy&lt;/strong&gt;: Loved the first two lewks and the story it was telling, but the third looks like the budget ran out.&lt;/li&gt;
  192. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lala: &lt;/strong&gt;A gorgeous bodysuit lewk, but the reveal leaves much to be desired.&lt;/li&gt;
  193. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jimbo:&lt;/strong&gt; Her Adam &amp;amp; Eve lewk is wildly terrifying but very funny. It’s a shoot for me.&lt;/li&gt;
  194. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alexis:&lt;/strong&gt; The &lt;em&gt;Into The Woods &lt;/em&gt;transformation from grotesque witch to beautiful witch is stunning.&lt;/li&gt;
  195. &lt;/ul&gt;
  196.  
  197. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;6&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-06/drag-race-as-3.jpg?itok=CRdspzC6&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  198.  
  199. &lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  200. Ru has made some decisions and Kandy and Lala are safe.&lt;br&gt;
  201. &lt;br&gt;
  202. That sounds about right.&lt;br&gt;
  203. &lt;br&gt;
  204. The judges’ critiques start with Jessica. Michelle isn’t wild about her “Snatch Game” as Iris Chacón and Ru didn’t get her point of view.The &amp;nbsp;judges love her lewk but it feels that she is in the bottom. It’s the same story with Kahanna, they love her “alluring” runway lewk, but the her impersonation of Coco in “Snatch Game” was not giving. She is more than likely in the bottom as well.&lt;br&gt;
  205. &lt;br&gt;
  206. Jaymes gets praised for her performance as Jennifer Coolidge, but Michelle calls her out on the fit of her runway lewk.&lt;br&gt;
  207. &lt;br&gt;
  208. “I lost weight! I didn’t expect that to happen!” Jaymes admits.&lt;br&gt;
  209. &lt;br&gt;
  210. Michelle also wants her to switch it up with silhouettes, while Ross and Bowen praise Jaymes’s “yassification of Jim Henson”.&lt;br&gt;
  211. &lt;br&gt;
  212. Alexis scores high points with her “Snatch Game” performance as Bea Arthur. Ru &lt;em&gt;really &lt;/em&gt;loved it and her runway lewk gets good marks as well.&lt;br&gt;
  213. &lt;br&gt;
  214. “I ask with the kindness in my heart: ‘What the f*ck is wrong with you?’” asks Michelle when it’s Jimbo’s turn.&lt;br&gt;
  215. &lt;br&gt;
  216. “It was just wrong in all the best ways,” praises Michelle.&lt;br&gt;
  217. &lt;br&gt;
  218. “I feel like with you, Jimbo, the concept matches the quality matches the comedy – you bring those together so well,” says Bowen.&lt;br&gt;
  219. &lt;br&gt;
  220. “I actually would go far as to say that you are the best physical comedian that &lt;em&gt;Drag Race &lt;/em&gt;has ever seen,” admits Matt.&lt;br&gt;
  221. &lt;br&gt;
  222. …and we haven’t even gotten to her Adam &amp;amp; Eve lewk yet!&lt;/p&gt;
  223.  
  224. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;2&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-06/drag-race-as-4.jpg?itok=ldaQwITL&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  225. &lt;br&gt;
  226. “It’s next level,” says Michelle. It’s so next level that Jimbo gets her third win. This leaves Jaymes and Alexis as safe and Jessica and Kahanna are in the bottom.&lt;br&gt;
  227. &lt;br&gt;
  228. After some dramatic voting moments in “The Ladies Room”, Jimbo awaits which lip sync assassin is behind the curtain…it’s Jasmine Kennedie from season 14 (and she is looking unbelievably illuminating!).&lt;br&gt;
  229. &lt;br&gt;
  230. The queens lip sync to Dua Lipa’s “Hallucinate” and Jimbo is doing a good job, but Jasmine is a fantastic performer – and she wins which means the $20K rolls over to next week!&lt;/p&gt;
  231.  
  232. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;3&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-06/drag-race-as-2.jpg?itok=uRrntvro&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  233. &lt;br&gt;
  234. Jessica and Kahanna walk on to the stage. The music then gets dramatic and Ru announces: “With great power comes great responsibility. That is why I have made this difficult decision…”&lt;br&gt;
  235. &lt;br&gt;
  236. Everyone in the room waits for what’s next with bated breath.&lt;br&gt;
  237. &lt;br&gt;
  238. Ru declares confidently: “I will continue to be blonde!” To which the room is met with laughs, reliefs and looks of “can you just let me know if I am eliminated from the competition?!” worry from Jessica and Kahanna.&lt;br&gt;
  239. &lt;br&gt;
  240. “No one is going home tonight!” Ru shouts from the judges’ panel.&lt;br&gt;
  241. &lt;br&gt;
  242. Honestly, the queens should be thanking Heidi for this double shantay.&lt;/p&gt;
  243. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-field-pubdate field-type-datetime field-label-hidden&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;date-display-single&quot;&gt;June 2, 2023&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

In the sophomore season, Sam (Bridget Everett) continues to find solace in singing with her community of outsiders while settling into a comfortable routine with Joel (out actor and comedian Jeff Hiller). Trans drag king and comedian Murray Hill also reprises his role as Fred, a University soil scientist by day, and Master of Ceremonies in a flashy suit by night. We can’t wait to see what happens in season three!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

With every snap of her camera, she has made her voice and intent known through every captured moment for now 50 years.&lt;/p&gt;
  433.  
  434. &lt;p&gt;In the late 70’s, the trajectory of her photography career completely changed as she became exposed to the Transgender Community and caught glimpses of their everyday lives. At a time, where the transgender community was even more misunderstood and largely marginalized, Allen embarked on a mission to shed light onto their lives through her art. Pretty soon, Allen’s work became an instrumental piece in expanding representation and visibility and challenging society’s perceptions.&lt;/p&gt;
  435.  
  436. &lt;p&gt;Her photographs have shown to break down stereotypes and provide a deeper understanding and look into gender identity and expression. She captures intimate portraits and narratives that humanize and celebrate those she has the chance to photograph. Her work has been shown at prestigious venues scuh as the George Eastman Museum and the International Center of Photography.&amp;nbsp; In addition to her photography, Allen has worked to educate through lectures on transgender issues in fornt of audiences ranging from academic institutions tot eh general public.&lt;/p&gt;

She’s also published her work in several books including “The Gender Frontier” and “Transformations: Crossdressers and Those Who Love Them.”&lt;/p&gt;
  443.  
  444. &lt;p&gt;To celebrate this years Pride Month, on June 1 to July 30, 2023, Mariette Pathy Allen will be showcasing her work in yet another exhibit partnered with Culture Lab LIC, and curated by Orestes Gonzalez and Jesse Egner, for their &lt;em&gt;Breaking Boundaries: 50 Years of Images&lt;/em&gt; showcasing Allen’s journey through her art.

These pieces range from photography, paintings, sculptures, mixed media. Of these artists will feature Zackary Drucker and Jess T. Dugan and their artwork in the exhibit.&lt;/p&gt;
  445.  
  446. &lt;p&gt;We caught up with Mariette Pathy Allen to celebrate the debut of this beautiful showcase in honor of Pride Month. Check out what she had to say below.&lt;/p&gt;

  452. &lt;h3&gt;GLAAD x Mariette Pathy Allen&lt;/h3&gt;
  453.  
  454. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;GLAAD: &lt;/strong&gt;This upcoming exhibit is named “Breaking Boundaries: 50 Years of Images” and it has a strong emphasis on the inclusiveness of the community. Including when it comes to our community of Queer People of Color. What was the importance of this name for you and what influenced this years’ exhibit in particular?&lt;br&gt;
  455. &lt;strong&gt;Allen: &lt;/strong&gt;I am quoting Orestes Gonzalez who conceived of the exhibition:&lt;/p&gt;
  456.  
  457. &lt;p&gt;“Since the late 80’s, I’ve always been a fan of Mariette’s work. Her groundbreaking images of a world I barely knew was both an eye opener and a consciousness creator for a segment of the LGBTQ community still struggling with acceptance and inclusivity. When we did our annual Pride Month group exhibit at CultureLab last year (which featured a triptych of hers), we asked if she would be willing to show her work retrospectively. Her acceptance immediately brought to mind another opportunity: to feature artists whose work was either inspired by her imagery or was brought to light by her opening up avenues that otherwise were closed before.”&lt;/p&gt;
  458.  
  459. &lt;p&gt;This exhibition consists of a mini-retrospective of my work since 1980. Except for Zackary Drucker and Jess Dugan who are guest artists, the “Breaking More Boundaries” exhibition is work by artists who responded to our cold call. Orestes Gonzalez, my co-curator, chose the names for both exhibitions. This was my first time I had the privilege of curating an exhibition (Along with Orestes Gonzalez and Jesse Egner) this was my first experience as a curator and I was thrilled to see the range of work we were offered. This exhibition is needed now. The current backlash against transgender and non-binary people is heartbreaking! This attack threatens to erase the accomplishments of gender pioneers as well as the efforts of anonymous people fighting for civil rights in medical, legal,&amp;nbsp; and religious institutions. As the level of ignorance and violence all over the country increases, I hope that by presenting gender-expansive people in the daylight of everyday life, as relatable human beings, there is a chance that ignorance and prejudice. and violence surrounding us could be diminished.&lt;/p&gt;
  460.  
  461. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;GLAAD: &lt;/strong&gt;This project was a lifelong and year round project. What has that process been like and how did you prepare and motivate yourself for this particular showing?&lt;br&gt;
  462. &lt;strong&gt;Allen: &lt;/strong&gt;I identify as an activist and have always participated in the movement for gender-variant people. This exhibition is a great opportunity to show my work as an artist and an activist.&lt;/p&gt;

  467.  
  468. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;GLAAD: &lt;/strong&gt;You’ve worked to showcase the Transgender community through photography for decades. Your work has ranged in emotions and set up, from cross dressing to sharing snippets of casual, every day life. How did you originally find yourself in this space to primarily focus on the beauty of Trans individuals?&lt;br&gt;
  469. &lt;strong&gt;Allen: &lt;/strong&gt;I met a group of crossdressers in 1978 and made friends with one of them. Through Vicky West, I was introduced to the crossdressing community, but the more I traveled to conferences and clubs, the more people I met and photographed. By the ‘90s I got to know an exhilarating variety of people and philosophies. I relate to this world of exploration and questioning. What is the essence of a human being?&lt;/p&gt;
  470.  
  471. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;GLAAD: &lt;/strong&gt;What do you hope to accomplish and hope for people to receive when experiencing the work shown at this years’ exhibit?&lt;br&gt;
  472. &lt;strong&gt;Allen: &lt;/strong&gt;I want to show the beauty of people who identify in myriad ways. Art brings up emotions and questions. I hope that everyone who goes to the exhibitions over the next two months will have new experiences and understanding as they look at our work. There might even be people whose prejudices melt.&lt;/p&gt;
  473.  
  474. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;GLAAD: &lt;/strong&gt;How has your approach to your art differ now from when you started in the beginning of this journey?&lt;br&gt;
  475. &lt;strong&gt;Allen: &lt;/strong&gt;In the beginning, I made more formal portraits. After a while, especially when people were engaged in protests, dancing, in an emotional state, or playing with their children, I needed to be more spontaneous. I enjoy both ways of working.&lt;/p&gt;
  476.  
  477. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;GLAAD: &lt;/strong&gt;Your photography over the years has played its own part in Trans representation and highlighting the full complexity of each individual that you photograph. Do you consider your work as activism?&lt;br&gt;
  478. &lt;strong&gt;Allen: &lt;/strong&gt;I do consider my work as activism. Along with the photographs themselves, I have made slide presentations for different organizations worldwide, worked on films as a still photographer and advisor, been on radio and television programs, created programs at conferences, and have four published books. My photographs have been exhibited worldwide and are in private and public collections.&lt;/p&gt;

  515. &lt;p&gt;Grammy, Brit, Golden Globe, Oscar, and GLAAD Media Award winning musician Sam Smith has graced us all with a brand-new cover of the iconic self-love ballad “Beautiful.” The song was originally written by Linda Perry and made famous by GLAAD Media Award winner Christina Aguilera.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  516.  
  517. &lt;p&gt;Aguilera was recently named GLAAD&#039;s 2023 Advocate for Change Award recipient. Watch her moving speech here:&lt;/p&gt;

  523. &lt;p&gt;“I’ve been such a massive fan of Christina’s for as long as I can remember and will never forget the first time I heard ‘Beautiful’ and how personally it spoke to me,” said Smith. “The song is a true acceptance anthem and continues to inspire me with its important message to never stop celebrating who you are. I’m honored to have the opportunity to offer my rendition.”&amp;nbsp;Smith’s cover is available exclusively on &lt;a href=&quot;https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001gOeyWXfUAN-5dWxlsKbwVZgrjUobKDtD8iySBwmc9hKTJ2ZrcOLvNZlyNG-5fVrMJfBkQ2XMEpcCerbqBKje2Je7GHziil-IWtS3M9_9M9bqCNtMyQeeuKAaeBgGK4peoGUHF8vWYuzGK07iABZjwaD9jrUnQXbN&amp;amp;c=TaNLP3KRx-0SMy8-ChaF2kR3YYPmmKGAxn_UATVwG_yJ88uesyWzdA==&amp;amp;ch=ZfNxWPAkzPOchGnxd3KnbDspdrDdzdhWJ-n2u0cix6inzUY39QXntg==&quot;&gt;Amazon Music&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

  531. &lt;p&gt;Heart is also hosting a digital series called &lt;em&gt;The Walk In &lt;/em&gt;that will spotlight LGBTQ artists and allies in each episode such as Big Freedia and Trixie Mattel. “I was so excited for Season 4 of &lt;em&gt;The Walk In&lt;/em&gt; and being a part of DJ Mode. Having these opportunities allowed me to showcase my true essence and take my creativity to the next level. Through my selections and interviews on DJ Mode, I wanted to create a space where people can let loose, feel empowered, and celebrate their individuality. With &lt;em&gt;The Walk In&lt;/em&gt;, I always enjoyed helping my guests feel comfortable to flaunt their fashions without judgment. I hoped to capture the core of pure joy, self-expression, and unapologetic love for fashion with &lt;em&gt;The Walk In&lt;/em&gt; and music for DJ Mode.”&lt;/p&gt;
  532.  
  533. &lt;p&gt;Amazon Music users can also look forward to several live streamed events airing on the &lt;a href=&quot;https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001gOeyWXfUAN-5dWxlsKbwVZgrjUobKDtD8iySBwmc9hKTJ2ZrcOLvNbYhatenrIn4TebZjhVFk99h7QymZFtnXCaRWm2iwUoDZ-FS4ZlDS58DnV6azsuICjlc8S3K1dFoVAE8ZfPCD-DW2HjO5qGdYytXyJbgE6QC&amp;amp;c=TaNLP3KRx-0SMy8-ChaF2kR3YYPmmKGAxn_UATVwG_yJ88uesyWzdA==&amp;amp;ch=ZfNxWPAkzPOchGnxd3KnbDspdrDdzdhWJ-n2u0cix6inzUY39QXntg==&quot;&gt;Amazon Music channel on Twitch&lt;/a&gt; and Jujubee’s podcast, &lt;a href=&quot;https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001gOeyWXfUAN-5dWxlsKbwVZgrjUobKDtD8iySBwmc9hKTJ2ZrcOLvNZlyNG-5fVrM7qoNvwU9xS8jT7Y01tKEpaAxUk4t82Pn6-VdC6gf65kW0PqG6ESJ1s99Z-hzMyrhr-hADvZA9kuqnv8-7T4jgG357P6kahtvFn-r2YI052mjHjL1zFhQsVjbJyHBM6N7tncz8yWcy72zdF4fRoQL96VF6PuSGNWzlj_eSxTs5Xc=&amp;amp;c=TaNLP3KRx-0SMy8-ChaF2kR3YYPmmKGAxn_UATVwG_yJ88uesyWzdA==&amp;amp;ch=ZfNxWPAkzPOchGnxd3KnbDspdrDdzdhWJ-n2u0cix6inzUY39QXntg==&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Queen of Hearts&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt; will be returning for Seasons 3 and 4, releasing early and ad-free starting on June 13th on Amazon Music.&lt;/p&gt;

  553. &lt;p&gt;Being lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans or queer in Latin America is complex. We have one of the largest Pride Marches in the world (São Paulo) as well as some of the highest rates in homophobic and transphobic hate crimes (Brazil and Mexico). The social movements in our region have pushed and achieved many victories for our rights recently, while also putting out amazing, beautiful, smart pieces of content and cultural projects. Here are 5 of my recent favorites:&lt;/p&gt;
  554.  
  555. &lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Resistencias queer&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
  556.  
  557. &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.penguinlibros.com/mx/audiolibros-de-economia-politica-y-actualidad/325677-audiolibro-resistencias-queer-9786073829878&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51p-mHLYu0L._SL500_.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 400px; height: 400px; border-width: 0px; border-style: solid;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  558.  
  559. &lt;p&gt;After 4 years of cofounding &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.instagram.com/abrazogrupal/&quot;&gt;Abrazo Grupal&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;in Mexico, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.instagram.com/luisruizd/&quot;&gt;Luis Ruiz&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.instagram.com/natzahuatza/&quot;&gt;Andrea Natzahuatza &lt;/a&gt;have published a book that covers everything from the basics of sex and gender, and the fluidity in those concepts, to the meaning and value of media representation, allies and chosen families in the LGBTQ+ community. If the &quot;for dummies&quot; book series had a queer edition, this would be it. Only this is much better! Andrea and Luis are high school teachers based in the conservative city of León, which makes their voices even more important to pay attention to: they know what they talk about when it comes to the present and future of queer youth issues. Luis and Andrea say there are many books about coming out, and this is not one of them.&lt;/p&gt;
  560.  
  561. &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  562.  
  563. &lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alfonso La Cruz&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
  564.  
  565. &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/@lacruz1111&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://phantom-elmundo.unidadeditorial.es/6cc6a91e2b6930b3fbb64a52b4f70f96/crop/53x0/988x621/resize/414/f/jpg/assets/multimedia/imagenes/2019/07/26/15641294989686.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 400px; height: 266px; border-width: 0px; border-style: solid;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  566.  
  567. &lt;p&gt;How many reggaeton songs talk about sweaty dancing, lips that make you crazy, and eating someone out? Just about all of them, maybe. Except La Cruz is a young man writing and singing about other men. Originally from Venezuela and now living in Spain, as a teenager he was &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.elcolombiano.com/cultura/la-cruz-cantante-de-regueton-gay-HO21494366&quot;&gt;a choir boy and Luis Fonsi fan&lt;/a&gt;. Now he feels proud about being one of the first out artists making music in this genre.&lt;/p&gt;
  568.  
  569. &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  570.  
  571. &lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Presentes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
  572.  
  573. &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://agenciapresentes.org/la-agencia/&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://agenciapresentes.org/sitio/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/1-derechos-caras-e1595944834980.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 400px; height: 195px; border-width: 0px; border-style: solid;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  574.  
  575. &lt;p&gt;This is one of my main sources for &lt;a href=&quot;https://agenciapresentes.org/&quot;&gt;LGBTQ+ news in Latin America&lt;/a&gt;, and one of the only projects of its kind in Spanish that has survived the struggles faced by LGBTQ+ media globally. It was started in 2016 by Ana Fornaro, an international journalist born in Uruguay and based in Argentina, and currently has collaborators and media partners virtually all over the region. The platform has received awards from the Buenos Aires City Legislature and Impulse, and now offers gender and journalism workshops. I recommend particularly checking out their &lt;a href=&quot;https://agenciapresentes.org/investigaciones/&quot;&gt;reports&lt;/a&gt; on &quot;conversion therapy&quot;, missing LGBT people, queer land defenders and the impact of the pandemic on our community.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  576.  
  577. &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  578.  
  579. &lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;División Palermo&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
  580.  
  581. &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ozz-5rWXoI0&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://www.infobae.com/new-resizer/0gZl6VcYU2xviuAT_Xc-gllhIlc=/1200x800/filters:format(webp):quality(85)/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/infobae/KYCMN6YAVJGQNE2E5UBJ4DCGEM.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 400px; height: 267px; border-width: 0px; border-style: solid;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  582.  
  583. &lt;p&gt;Can we laugh about anything? I think so. If you’re not sure, give this Netflix original show from Argentina a try. “A ragtag civilian patrol squad created to improve the image of the police inadvertently put their lives at risk when confronting some strange criminals.” What makes this squad unique is that none of them are qualified for the job, and most of their members represent a minority: a woman in a wheelchair, a blind man, a jew, a Bolivian immigrant, and a trans woman played by &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.instagram.com/valelicciardi/&quot;&gt;Valeria Licciardi&lt;/a&gt;. With every joke that makes me literally laugh out loud, I think: they&#039;ve got to have writers or consultants from all these communities to make such on-point scripts. &lt;a href=&quot;https://elpais.com/television/2023-03-30/division-palermo-la-comedia-argentina-que-da-una-patada-a-la-correccion-politica.html&quot;&gt;And they do&lt;/a&gt;. Trust me, it’s funnier and more clever than I can make it sound.&lt;/p&gt;
  584.  
  585. &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  586.  
  587. &lt;h3&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ningún chile te embona&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
  588.  
  589. &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://open.spotify.com/show/2pZAYysJLUXPVN7ny24miZ&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://i.scdn.co/image/ab6765630000ba8ac33016558807af63b2f38318&quot; style=&quot;width: 400px; height: 400px; border-width: 0px; border-style: solid;&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  590.  
  591. &lt;p&gt;Some podcasts feel like there’s a microphone secretly recording a group of friends while having drinks at an apartment. This is one of them. Every Monday, Sam, Pablo and Darío interview an actor, a fashion designer, an activist, a standup comedian or a sex worker about their views on life, career and the LGBTQ+ community, with the right mix of intelligence, honesty, and sense of humor. Watch them on &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/@ningunchileteembona/videos&quot;&gt;YouTube&lt;/a&gt; or subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.&lt;br&gt;

  628.    <title>What should brands do about their Pride campaigns? Keep them!</title>
  629.    <link>https://www.glaad.org/blog/what-should-brands-do-about-their-pride-campaigns-keep-them</link>
  630.    <description>&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-field-blog-featured field-type-file field-label-hidden&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;by Sarah Kate Ellis&lt;br&gt;
  631. President and CEO, GLAAD&lt;/p&gt;
  632.  
  633. &lt;p&gt;The most important lesson from Bud Light and Target’s embarrassing decisions to disavow their inclusive marketing actually has nothing to do with Pride Month or LGBTQ people. Where Bud Light and Target went wrong is simple: they let a coordinated political attack, led by a handful of activists and extremists, take their businesses hostage.&lt;/p&gt;
  634.  
  635. &lt;p&gt;In my decades as a corporate marketing executive, I learned a very important lesson: consumers respond to authenticity. Consumers want to know they can count on brands. Staying authentic and true to your values grows successful brands and loyal followings.&lt;/p&gt;
  636.  
  637. &lt;p&gt;Bud Light has&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;/blog/bud-light-celebrates-marriage-equality-new-tv-spot&quot;&gt;included LGBTQ people in ads&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;since the mid-1990s,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-out/bud-light-debuts-trans-inclusive-tv-ad-n631211&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;including a 2016 trans-inclusive national TV ad&lt;/a&gt;, and supported Pride events for far&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.sdlgbtn.com/the-history-of-anheuser-buschs-support-for-the-lgbt-community/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;longer than that&lt;/a&gt;. The company even donated to GLAAD, the organization I lead, because they supported our mission to grow LGBTQ representation. When Bud Light was earning kudos from LGBTQ employees and making profits from a growing consumer base, they were fine to show Pride, but the second extremists spoke out, they moved from allies to cowards.&lt;/p&gt;
  638.  
  639. &lt;p&gt;Here’s how Bud Light and Target lost their way. They shared LGBTQ and trans-inclusive content/products: great! With 500+ anti-LGBTQ bills proposed this year, a majority attacking trans people, the initial marketing from both companies was welcome and necessary. It’s not an easy time to be LGBTQ – my team counting more than 160 violent attacks and threats to drag events alone this past year.&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;/releases/unsafe-america-annual-glaad-accelerating-acceptance-study-finds-sharp-increase-lgbtq&quot;&gt;More than half of trans Americans&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;don’t feel safe walking in their own neighborhoods. So however simple - a promotional, not-even-for-sale beer can, or products with rainbows and affirming messages - visibility and inclusion in your products and ads are powerful.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  640.  
  641. &lt;p&gt;When a handful of extremists got wind of Bud Light and Target’s Pride plans, they pounced. These extremists spewed vile lies about each company’s inclusive work, even though Target has been a longtime public supporter of LGBTQ causes and has offered Pride products for more than a decade. T-shirts with rainbows do not turn children LGBTQ. They send messages of hope, belonging and Pride, something the extremists falsely stated is “toxic.” These are irrational voices of a fringe few.&lt;/p&gt;
  642.  
  643. &lt;p&gt;Bud Light and Target confusingly made the wrong move. They decided their values were not as important as handing over the reins of their business to anti-LGBTQ extremists.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  644.  
  645. &lt;p&gt;Target can move Pride displays to the back of some stores and Bud Light can change plans for social media campaigns, but LGBTQ people, including Target’s customers and employees, don’t get to hide who we are. We deserve allies who aren’t afraid to show everyone who they are.&lt;/p&gt;
  646.  
  647. &lt;p&gt;Enter brands like Disney, the LA Dodgers, Nike, and the North Face. Disney’s Bob Iger moved swiftly to correct the company’s late support of LGBTQ people and against harmful legislation like Florida’s “Don’t Say LGBTQ” law.&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://wwd.com/pop-culture/new-fashion-releases/disney-pride-collection-2023-release-info-1235652876/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Disney proudly debuted its 2023 Pride products&lt;/a&gt;, with proceeds going to LGBTQ youth organizations. Last week, the Dodgers quickly realized that caving to a handful of outside extremists who tried to meddle with their Pride Night was wrong. The team apologized, and restored its original Pride Night plan.&lt;/p&gt;
  648.  
  649. &lt;p&gt;Nike had a simple message after a few activists attacked its partnership with Dylan Mulvaney, the same transgender influencer who Bud Light refused to defend. After Nike received anti-trans comments,&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.thepinknews.com/2023/04/08/nike-dylan-mulvaney-advert-leggins-transphobia/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;it pinned a comment on an Instagram post&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt;reminding people to be “kind.” “Hate speech, bullying, or other behaviors that are not in the spirit of a diverse and inclusive community will be deleted,” Nike wrote. Imagine if Target would have said violence and threats are not tolerated. What if Bud Light spoke up to encourage consumers to be kind? Nike CEO John Donahue&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.cnbc.com/2023/05/23/nike-ceo-john-donahoe-weighs-in-on-desantis-disney-feud.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;recently explained&lt;/a&gt;: “If it’s core to who you are and your values… you stand up for your values.”&lt;/p&gt;
  650.  
  651. &lt;p&gt;The North Face is perhaps the best role model for brands this June. The North Face’s Pride campaign featured a drag artist and received threats of a boycott. Rather than back down, the North Face doubled down on its values. And guess what? Since the brand made that clear statement, extremist voices died down. The brand isn’t facing the problems Bud Light and Target are.&lt;/p&gt;
  652.  
  653. &lt;p style=&quot;font-size: 10px;&quot;&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Photo Credit - North Face&quot; src=&quot;https://assets.glaad.org/m/1fc74b4bfa1b01c8/original/NorthFace-blog060123.jpg&quot; style=&quot;width: 600px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  654. &lt;em&gt;Photo Credit: North Face&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  655.  
  656. &lt;p&gt;I implore all brands to look to Disney, the Dodgers, Nike, and the North Face for inspiration. Stay true to your values. If you falter, it’s okay. Being an ally isn’t easy. Just make sure you correct course, and be vocal in reaffirming your brand’s values.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  657.  
  658. &lt;p&gt;The risk of caving or doing nothing craters your company’s credibility and is a bottom line threat. LGBTQ people are the fastest-growing consumer market with an estimated $1.1 trillion in annual purchasing power. 20% of Gen Z are LGBTQ, and with their allies’ support, make up a remarkable workforce and customer base.&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;/blog/new-study-glaad-and-edelman-trust-institute-finds-majority-americans-expect-businesses-speak&quot;&gt;GLAAD and the Edelman Trust Institute found&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;U.S. employees ages 18-34 are 5.5x more likely to want to work at a company if it supports LGBTQ people. Americans of all ages are twice as likely to buy from a brand that publicly supports our community.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  659.  
  660. &lt;p&gt;This Pride season, hundreds of brands are continuing to authentically support our community. LGBTQ people are strong, brave, beautiful, and most of all, resilient. We need brands to be allies. You’ll feel good doing the right thing, and may feel even better when you see your business succeed and your profits grow. The facts are clear on every front: LGBTQ people are worth it. Your support of us should always be something to be proud about.&lt;/p&gt;

  680. &lt;p&gt;A brand-new app is on the market for gay, bi, and queer men on the market! &lt;a href=&quot;https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;amp;l=en&amp;amp;o=3880305-1&amp;amp;h=3704650619&amp;amp;u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.archerapp.com%2F&amp;amp;a=Archer&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Archer&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, the new social-first dating app for LGBTQ men, has just announced its launch, pioneering a new way to meet, date, and celebrate the community. The dating experience for this community has evolved from a place of anonymity to celebration and pride, and Archer was developed to reflect that progress by prioritizing community, self-expression, and user safety. The app will be available in the New York City area this summer and will roll out nationally within the year.&lt;/p&gt;
  681.  
  682. &lt;center&gt;
  683. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-06/Archer%20App%20Icon_2.png?itok=_QifNvR-&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  684. &lt;/center&gt;
  685.  
  686. &lt;p&gt;Archer debuts under &lt;strong&gt;Match Group&lt;/strong&gt; as the first major innovation in the space in nearly a decade. Archer was created in partnership with LGBTQ community advocates. Through the use of AI technology insights and extensive market research, including in-depth surveys and interviews, Archer aims to create a safer space for men to seek boldly and aim freely for whatever type of connection they desire. The app is engineered with purpose-driven features intended to keep users safer while allowing each person to share and express themselves at their discretion. Archer&#039;s elevated mobile UX will allow users to express themselves in a deeper way through photo-centric, feed-style profiles, various feed and grid view options, group messaging, and no pre-set labels, combining a social media experience with a dating app to create community-building opportunities.&lt;/p&gt;
  687.  
  688. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;3&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-06/Archer%20Profile%20Landscape.jpg?itok=-67njt9N&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  689.  
  690. &lt;p&gt;Features immediately available to users at signup include:&lt;/p&gt;
  691.  
  692. &lt;ul&gt;
  693. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Profile Photo Verification:&lt;/strong&gt; Selfie verification is required at signup, designed to mitigate abuse and fraud, so that users are more authentically represented and verified via their profile photo. Encouraging celebration over anonymity, users must have a verified photo that includes their face as their primary profile photo.&lt;br&gt;
  694. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  695. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Interactive UI/UX Interface: &lt;/strong&gt;Archer&#039;s interface is a customizable experience featuring three different profile-viewing options. Users can scroll through a linear feed, viewing one profile at a time, a zoomed-in grid showcasing 15 profiles, or a zoomed-out grid for viewing dozens of profiles at once. The interactive layout caters to a new generation of daters, allowing users to choose their own dating adventure — whether that&#039;s a friend, hookup, date, relationship, or just someone to chat with.&lt;br&gt;
  696. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  697. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Community Building Tools: &lt;/strong&gt;People on Archer will be able to &quot;follow&quot; others — a social-first feature that will continue to evolve in the coming months. Users can also express themselves through pre-set tags, making it easier to find users with similar interests and allowing them to set filters for what they&#039;re seeking. Following the launch, free-form tags will become available for users to customize their own tags.&lt;br&gt;
  698. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  699. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Enhanced AI and Human Moderation Features:&lt;/strong&gt; Using a combination of AI technology and human moderation, Archer requires that all profiles are content-rich and high-quality, and that users adhere to Archer&#039;s community guidelines and safety policies. This technology is used further in Archer&#039;s chat feature, smart-blurring photos that may contain nudity to help give users agency to control when or if they see the photo.&lt;/li&gt;
  700. &lt;/ul&gt;
  701.  
  702. &lt;p&gt;&quot;Archer&#039;s innovation — combining the connection-seeking of dating with the self-expression of social media — has created a new type of experience for this community to interact and connect with one another,&quot; says &lt;strong&gt;Marcus Lofthouse, Chief Product Officer at Archer&lt;/strong&gt;. &quot;We&#039;ve relied on feedback from the community to build the unique platform experience they&#039;re looking for to empower men to be their full selves, and to genuinely, and more safely, connect with others.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
  703.  
  704. &lt;p&gt;Archer is committed to curating its app experience to meet the needs of today&#039;s daters. Through the developmental phase, Archer worked with over 1,200 gay, bisexual, and queer men through surveys, interviews, and feature testing. Additionally, Archer will continue to evolve the app with the support of its community advocates, a group of diverse queer men who&#039;ve helped steer the direction of Archer&#039;s app development. Archer is also proud to partner with &lt;a href=&quot;https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;amp;l=en&amp;amp;o=3880305-1&amp;amp;h=461345065&amp;amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.glaad.org%2F&amp;amp;a=GLAAD&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;GLAAD&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; — the world&#039;s largest LGBTQ media advocacy organization — to help create an app that is reflective of the community it serves. Archer and GLAAD will continue to work together on future iterations of the app, including new initiatives that support the queer community.&lt;/p&gt;
  705.  
  706. &lt;p&gt;&quot;When I first tried dating apps almost a decade ago as a closeted gay man, the options available only reinforced the idea that love and connection in our community should be hidden,&quot; added &lt;strong&gt;Michael Kaye, Director of Brand Marketing and Communications at Archer. &lt;/strong&gt;&quot;Archer ushers in a new age of dating, celebrating self-expression and community and providing queer men with a safer space to connect freely with whoever they&#039;re looking for.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
  707.  
  708. &lt;p&gt;Later this year, Archer plans to roll out additional features that blend the social and dating in-app experience to further celebrate self-expression and cultivate safer community engagement. Beyond being able to add more than 20 profile images and a bio with self-identifying tags at launch, Archer plans to add ephemeral content-sharing options, creating a more seamless way for users on the app to connect and create content, as well as group chats to help users build communities on the app.&lt;/p&gt;
  709.  
  710. &lt;p&gt;Archer is also introducing an in-app health hub, a digital center designed to provide access to medical and mental health resources. This will include information on counseling centers, STD/STI testing areas, PrEP (prescribed medication to help prevent HIV infection) and PEP (medication taken after potential exposure to HIV) information, and more to create a psychologically safer and sex-positive environment.&lt;/p&gt;
  711.  
  712. &lt;p&gt;Archer is currently available for pre-registration in the &lt;a href=&quot;https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;amp;l=en&amp;amp;o=3880305-1&amp;amp;h=1652894324&amp;amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fapps.apple.com%2Fus%2Fapp%2Farcher-new-gay-dating-chat%2Fid6446289426&amp;amp;a=App+Store&quot;&gt;App Store&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&amp;amp;l=en&amp;amp;o=3880305-1&amp;amp;h=1505049369&amp;amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fplay.google.com%2Fstore%2Fapps%2Fdetails%3Fid%3Dcom.archerapp.archer&amp;amp;a=Google+Play&quot;&gt;Google Play&lt;/a&gt; and will be available for download later in June. Archer plans to launch in Los Angeles and Washington D.C. in the coming months, with plans to be available nationwide by the end of the year.&lt;/p&gt;

  724. &lt;strong&gt;Current State of Anti-LGBTQ Violence &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  725.  
  726. &lt;ul&gt;
  727. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/blog/anti-drag-report&quot;&gt;More than 160 LGBTQ community events have been targeted&lt;/a&gt; with violence and threats in the past year. Everything from firebombing a donut shop to armed militias showing up at public libraries of all places.&lt;/li&gt;
  728. &lt;li&gt;Data from Equality Federation shows &lt;a href=&quot;/acceptance&quot; rel=&quot;noreferrer noopener&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;over 500 anti-LGBTQ bills this year&lt;/a&gt;. Each of the previous two years – 2022 and 2021 – were record-setting years for anti-LGBTQ legislation.&lt;/li&gt;
  729. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/publications/accelerating-acceptance-2022&quot;&gt;More than half (54%) of transgender and nonbinary people feel unsafe walking in their own neighborhoods&lt;/a&gt;, compared to 36% of all LGBTQ adults, as well as in various environments, from work, to social media, or in a typical store.&lt;/li&gt;
  730. &lt;li&gt;Online hate is leading to real world violence. This is recognized by &lt;a href=&quot;/acceptance&quot;&gt;86% of Americans outside of the LGBTQ community who agree exposure to hate content online is leading to violence in the real world&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
  731. &lt;/ul&gt;
  732.  
  733. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Support for the LGBTQ Community&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  734.  
  735. &lt;ul&gt;
  736. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/acceptance&quot;&gt;91% of non-LGBTQ Americans agree&lt;/a&gt; that LGBTQ people should have the freedom to live their life and not be discriminated against&lt;/li&gt;
  737. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/acceptance&quot;&gt;84% of non-LGBTQ Americans support equal rights for the LGBTQ community&lt;/a&gt; - this is an all-time high (it was 79% in 2021, the first year this was asked).&lt;/li&gt;
  738. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/acceptance&quot;&gt;75% of non-LGBTQ Americans are comfortable seeing LGBTQ people included in an advertisement&lt;/a&gt; – this level of comfort has remained stable over the last four years.&lt;/li&gt;
  739. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/acceptance&quot;&gt;60% of non-LGBTQ Americans say seeing LGBTQ people in ads make them more comfortable with people that are different than themselves&lt;/a&gt; – this is statistically stable year over year.&lt;/li&gt;
  740. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://news.gallup.com/poll/470708/lgbt-identification-steady.aspx&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Gallup found over 20% of Gen Z are LGBT&lt;/a&gt;, that number has grown each year since Gallup first measured LGBT identification a decade ago.&lt;/li&gt;
  741. &lt;/ul&gt;
  742.  
  743. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The LGBTQ Community in Corporate America &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Even more, 59% of Americans say that if business devoted significant resources to protecting the rights of the LGBTQ community it could have a positive impact.&lt;/li&gt;
  747. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/blog/new-study-glaad-and-edelman-trust-institute-finds-majority-americans-expect-businesses-speak&quot;&gt;Across demographics, Americans seek out employers who take a stand in support of LGBTQ rights&lt;/a&gt;: If a brand publicly supports and demonstrates a commitment to expanding and protecting LGBTQ rights, Americans are 2x more likely to buy or use the brand and those aged 18-34 are 5.5x more likely to want to work at a company if it publicly supports and demonstrates a commitment to expanding and protecting LGBTQ rights.&lt;/li&gt;
  748. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/acceptance&quot;&gt;70% of non-LGBTQ Americans agree that companies should publicly support and include the LGBTQ community through practices like hiring, advertising and sponsorships.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  750. &lt;ul&gt;

  766.  
  767. &lt;p&gt;Apple TV+’s newest series &lt;em&gt;City on Fire&lt;/em&gt; is not one you’re going to want to miss. First premiering on May 12th, this 8-episode weekly drama was inspired by the acclaimed Garth Risk Hallberg novel with the same name. &lt;em&gt;City on Fire &lt;/em&gt;follows the investigation of the murder of an NYU student shot in Central Park in July of 2003. As the crime against Samantha, who is played by Chase Sui Wonders, is investigated, she’s revealed to be the crucial connection between a series of mysterious citywide fires, the downtown music scene, and a wealthy uptown real estate family fraying under the strain of the many secrets they keep.&lt;/p&gt;

  771. &lt;/center&gt;
  772.  
  773. &lt;p&gt;This shocking mystery series also features incredible LGBTQ cast members including nonbinary actor Nico Tortorella and John Cameron Mitchell. Tortorella’s character, William, lives with his boyfriend Mercer, and will stop at nothing to get to the bottom of Samantha’s murder and how it connects to the arson taking place all over New York.&lt;/p&gt;

  777. &lt;/center&gt;
  778.  
  779. &lt;p&gt;This exclusive clip from episode 6, “Annus Horribilis,” shows William hard at work searching for clues about the case. William anxiously looks through the juvie and PI records of a person of interest in the case, Nicky “Chaos” McKay.&lt;/p&gt;

  782.  
  783. &lt;p&gt;“Public mischief, shoplifting, arson, arson, arson… more arson,” William says as he flips through the files. It is then revealed that Nicky was diagnosed with pyromania, “an impulse control disorder resulting from unprocessed childhood trauma usually seen in young men.” This may prove to be a major clue to solving the case.&lt;/p&gt;

  808.  
  809. &lt;p&gt;After the first season of &lt;strong&gt;Gloria Calderon Kellett’&lt;/strong&gt;s Prime Video rom-com &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;With Love&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/em&gt;ended, we were left with many questions. What is in store for the Diaz siblings? How Lily (&lt;strong&gt;Emeraude Toubia&lt;/strong&gt;) navigating her self-love journey after saying farewell to Santiago (&lt;strong&gt;Rome Flynn&lt;/strong&gt;)? And is she still thinking about Nick (&lt;strong&gt;Desmond Chiam&lt;/strong&gt;)? How are Jorge (&lt;strong&gt;Mark Indelicato&lt;/strong&gt;) and Henry (&lt;strong&gt;Vincent Rodriguez III&lt;/strong&gt;)? Better yet, where are Sol (Isis King) and Miles (&lt;strong&gt;Todd Grinnell&lt;/strong&gt;) at in their relationship? And how are Beatriz (&lt;strong&gt;Constance Marie&lt;/strong&gt;) and Jorge Sr. (&lt;strong&gt;Benito Martinez&lt;/strong&gt;) handling all the changes in their family?&lt;/p&gt;
  810.  
  811. &lt;p&gt;GLAAD’s &lt;strong&gt;Shar Jossell&lt;/strong&gt; spoke to the cast of &lt;em&gt;With Love &lt;/em&gt;recently and asked them to describe season two in one (or a couple of more) words.&lt;br&gt;
  812. &lt;br&gt;
  813. “Grateful,” says Flynn.&amp;nbsp;Meanwhile Chiam says, “Humble.”&lt;/p&gt;
  814.  
  815. &lt;p&gt;“I&#039;m gonna say that the world turns upside down,” said Toubia in regard&amp;nbsp;to the new season while Idelicato says its “Tumultuous.” This makes me think that Jorge Jr.&amp;nbsp;and Henry are about to hit some speed bumps.&lt;/p&gt;
  816.  
  817. &lt;p&gt;“One word to describe Henry&#039;s journey in season two… I would say vulnerable,” admits Rodriguez.&lt;/p&gt;
  818.  
  819. &lt;p&gt;For King, she says this season is a “love roller coaster”. Obviously, she’s referring to Sol and Miles’s relationship. “You see the ups and downs of our relationship that wasn&#039;t there in season one as much.”&lt;/p&gt;
  820.  
  821. &lt;p&gt;Grinnell agrees, “I would say Miles and Sol go the furthest away from each other that we&#039;ve seen and then the closest that we&#039;ve seen and… it&#039;s a lot of love.”&lt;/p&gt;
  822.  
  823. &lt;center&gt;&lt;iframe allow=&quot;accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/s2ti9GFJSKM&quot; title=&quot;YouTube video player&quot; width=&quot;560&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/center&gt;
  824.  
  825. &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;With Love &lt;/em&gt;is hyper inclusive and doesn’t tokenize. Instead, the rom-com lets the characters live their lives that isn’t totally engulfed by their identities. For King, seeing a character like Sol on TV today means a lot to her – and it would have meant even more if she saw Sol as a child.&lt;br&gt;
  826. &lt;br&gt;
  827. “There wasn&#039;t any of this type of representation for a trans person to have a career, to have love, to have the support of family and friends – I&#039;ve never seen someone have all four of those,” explains King, adding that if she saw Sol when she was younger, it would have given her a look at what healthy love can look like for a trans person. “It’s all we deserve.”&lt;/p&gt;
  828.  
  829. &lt;p&gt;For Rodriguez, seeing a character like Henry as a child would have “changed his life”. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  830.  
  831. &lt;p&gt;“It’s one of the reasons why I feel so grateful to be a part of shows like &lt;em&gt;With Love, &lt;/em&gt;which have that level of representation inclusivity and that kind of positive messaging and positive impact for what storytelling can be and how it can help audiences,” added Rodriguez.&lt;/p&gt;
  832.  
  833. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/WLOV_S2_UT_203_220727_ESTKEV_00395r_3000.jpg?itok=XgRjn4lg&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  836.  
  837. &lt;p&gt;From the jump, &lt;em&gt;With Love &lt;/em&gt;was unapologetically queer having multiple LGBTQ characters in the core cast and even including effortless, open dialogue about gender identities and sexuality and not making it sound like an afterschool special.&lt;/p&gt;
  838.  
  839. &lt;p&gt;That being said, the second season of the show debuts at a time when the queer community is under attack, specifically the trans community. For Indelicato, he feels that “every eloquent and articulate phrase has been taken at this point” in terms of words of encouragement.&lt;/p&gt;
  840.  
  841. &lt;p&gt;“I think that it almost falls on deaf ears sometimes to say ‘it gets better’ at this point even though that is true in certain contexts,” Indelicato&amp;nbsp;says. “I just think that at this point, we as, a queer community and especially queer communities of color, need to stand in our own power because at the end of the day, sometimes the people and institutions you think have your back, don&#039;t. I think that that&#039;s very troubling for a lot of young people.”&lt;/p&gt;
  842.  
  843. &lt;p&gt;Indelicato believes that it does get better and that we have made progress but it&#039;s not enough. “We should take stride and take pride in how much we&#039;ve accomplished and how much we&#039;ve overcome,” he says. “But to be complacent is the real enemy.”&lt;/p&gt;
  844.  
  845. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;2&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/WLOV_S2_UT_201_220622_HAYCOL_00525R_3000.jpg?itok=gBFKdFEa&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  850.  
  851. &lt;p&gt;“There&#039;s a lot of reasons why there&#039;s so much tumult and strain in our communities right now,” says Martinez. “If we get back to, which is the heart of this show, learning to meet people where they are at and respect them, then we have a chance to start the conversations that we need to have that are important conversations and we have to make sure we leave that space to listen as well.&lt;/p&gt;
  852.  
  853. &lt;p&gt;Marie agrees and adds that she hopes we get to a place where “you can show somebody another version of humanity that is just as amazing as your version of humanity, and you can let go of thinking that ‘I have to be right and they have to be wrong’.”&lt;/p&gt;
  854.  
  855. &lt;p&gt;Chiam applaud Jorge Jr. and Henry’s trauma-free relationship is foundational to the series. “They have been the most rock solid from beginning to end,” he adds, saying that even though they have their own drama, it doesn’t have to do with any of trauma that that the queer community has been put through,&amp;nbsp;“I hope that it is a breath of fresh air,” he adds.&lt;/p&gt;
  856.  
  857. &lt;p&gt;“I think sometimes these shows have a way of trying to teach people, but people sometimes don&#039;t wanna feel like they&#039;re being taught, especially the masses out there,” says Flynn. “[&lt;em&gt;With Love&lt;/em&gt;] really threaded the line of educating people on how these things work in these relationships… it&#039;s really special to be a part of a show that is highlighting these things. We don&#039;t really get to see that often.”&lt;/p&gt;
  858.  
  859. &lt;p&gt;The LGBTQ community is no stranger to navigating uncertain and volatile landscapes and King encourages her queer siblings to keep the faith. &amp;nbsp;“Just continue to be ourselves and be bold and, and the idea of knowing that who you are is enough,” she said. &amp;nbsp;“If ou can&#039;t find support here, find it somewhere else. There’s always gonna be support. Find your tribe and continue to figure out and celebrate who you are because there&#039;s nothing wrong with you.”&lt;/p&gt;
  860.  
  861. &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;WITH LOVE&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;will be distributed exclusively on Prime Video globally on June 2nd, 2023.&lt;/p&gt;

  879. &lt;/center&gt;
  880.  
  881. &lt;p&gt;The second season of the drag singing competition &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Queen of the Universe&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is set to debut on Paramount+ on June 2nd. Hosted by former &lt;em&gt;RuPaul’s Drag Race &lt;/em&gt;guest judge &lt;strong&gt;Graham Norton&lt;/strong&gt;, the judges include &lt;em&gt;Drag Race &lt;/em&gt;judge &lt;strong&gt;Michelle Visage&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Drag Race All-Stars &lt;/em&gt;season 3 winner &lt;strong&gt;Trixie Mattel&lt;/strong&gt;, as well as legend and former &lt;em&gt;Drag Race &lt;/em&gt;guest judge &lt;strong&gt;Vanessa Williams&lt;/strong&gt;. Joining the panel this season is Spice Girl icon &lt;strong&gt;Mel B&lt;/strong&gt;… who was also a guest judge on &lt;em&gt;Drag Race&lt;/em&gt;! That’s a whole lot of &lt;em&gt;Drag Race&lt;/em&gt;…and the more drag the better.&lt;/p&gt;
  882.  
  883. &lt;p&gt;This season feature talented drag queens from around the globe flexing their lewks and vocal chords to win the titular crown and a cash prize of $250,000. This season’s queens include Aura Eternal (Palermo, Italy), Chloe V (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), Jazell Royale (Orlando, Florida), Love Masisi (Amsterdam, Netherlands), Maxie (Manila, Philippines), Militia Scunt (San Francisco, California), Miss Sistrata (Tel Aviv, Israel), Taiga Brava (Cancun, Mexico), Trevor Ashley (Sydney, Australia), and Viola (Coventry, England, U.K).&lt;/p&gt;
  884.  
  885. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/queen5.jpg?itok=nqARMnIJ&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  886.  
  887. &lt;p&gt;For the judges, singing and lewks are only part of proving their prowess to win the crown. GLAAD&#039;s &lt;strong&gt;Tony Morrison&lt;/strong&gt; talked to Williams, Visage, and Mattel about the new season and what they are looking for when it comes to the titular &quot;Queen of the Universe&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;
  888.  
  889. &lt;p&gt;“I&#039;m looking for stage presence…feeling confident in what they&#039;re gonna sing and how they look [and] how they relate to the audience,” Williams says. She also points out that the audience are the ones voting most of the time as they partake in the process of choosing who goes home.&lt;/p&gt;
  890.  
  891. &lt;p&gt;Williams also looks at how the queens react to the work, the audience, how they handle their own talent and also being comfortable on stage. “You got to sell it,” she says.&lt;/p&gt;
  892.  
  893. &lt;p&gt;As a judge on &lt;em&gt;Drag Race &lt;/em&gt;since season 3, Visage doesn’t see a difference between judging the iconic drag reality competition and &lt;em&gt;Queen of the Universe. &lt;/em&gt;Don’t get it twisted, she takes her job seriously.&lt;/p&gt;
  894.  
  895. &lt;p&gt;“I&#039;m looking for a star,” Visage tells Morrison. “That is in performance; that is in vocals; that&#039;s appearance – that&#039;s all together. It&#039;s a little bit of each.”&lt;/p&gt;
  896.  
  897. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;4&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/queen6.jpg?itok=bXUfMMoU&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  898.  
  899. &lt;p&gt;As anti-drag and anti-trans bills continue&amp;nbsp;to be introduced and signed into law across the country, the mere presence of shows like &lt;em&gt;Queen of the Universe &lt;/em&gt;are an act of activism – and a damn fun one to watch. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  900.  
  901. &lt;p&gt;“We have people at my shows who haven&#039;t seen &lt;em&gt;Drag Race&lt;/em&gt; or &lt;em&gt;Queen of the Universe,&lt;/em&gt;” says Mattel. &lt;em&gt;“&lt;/em&gt;They randomly found me on a Spotify playlist.” She adds that sometimes music is a good way to make people fall in love with drag.&lt;/p&gt;
  902.  
  903. &lt;p&gt;“Great singing like they do on &lt;em&gt;Queen of the Universe &lt;/em&gt;is a great way to trick&amp;nbsp;your homophobic uncle who&#039;s not sure about drag,” she says. “He might love the singing and might come around.”&lt;/p&gt;
  904.  
  905. &lt;p&gt;Visage asks, “What is the difference between a drag queen and Dolly Parton?” It’s also worth saying that Visage has said she is a drag queen, following RuPaul’s mantra, “We’re all born naked and the rest is drag.”&lt;/p&gt;
  906.  
  907. &lt;p&gt;“These are just artists who are singing, and music is the great equalizer,” says Visage of &lt;em&gt;Queen of the Universe&lt;/em&gt;. “Quite honestly, when I go to see the Madonnas and the Janet Jacksons, I don&#039;t even care if they sing live. I want to see a show. This is why we love them.”&lt;/p&gt;
  908.  
  909. &lt;p&gt;She continues, “This is a live singing competition, so we need to hear them sounding great and performing great and looking great. Drag is just something that&#039;s on top of all that. That&#039;s the crazy thing about it – it&#039;s not like they&#039;re out there peddling their wares, they&#039;re out there singing! That&#039;s what they&#039;re doing and they just happen to do drag. So, music is the great equalizer here and that&#039;s what&#039;s so special about it.”&lt;/p&gt;
  910.  
  911. &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  912.  
  913. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;3&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/queen2.jpg?itok=YDfDn_wp&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  914.  
  915. &lt;p&gt;With a global cast of contestants, Williams talks about the international queens and the struggles they have to go through in terms of legal issues and being seen in drag. “We realize the dynamics of what are happening worldwide, not just within our country in Florida, but the danger that could possibly be brought to these amazing talents worldwide.”&lt;/p&gt;
  916.  
  917. &lt;p&gt;She adds to Mattel and Visage’s words about music being a universal language. She says we are there to watch these amazing artists sing and showcase their musicality and nothing else.&lt;/p&gt;
  918.  
  919. &lt;p&gt;“There’s so much that is fear-based right now and so much of what people have been able to control are crumbling that they&#039;re panicking,” Williams points out. “They are scrambling for control and that&#039;s just another avenue for them to try to clamp down the reins and be in control and it&#039;s not gonna last.”&lt;br&gt;
  920. &lt;br&gt;
  921. Visage encourages the queer community that there is an army of siblings out there that have been fighting this fight with them and they will not stop fighting. “It&#039;s the most important thing for me to never shut up because this world has to be a better place for the sake of my child and possibly my grandchildren and so on,” says Visage, who has a queer child.&lt;/p&gt;
  922.  
  923. &lt;p&gt;Williams adds, “It&#039;s a fight and the reality is we&#039;re not going anywhere.”&lt;/p&gt;
  924.  
  925. &lt;p&gt;“I love women&#039;s tennis [and] no matter how much women&#039;s tennis I watch, I won’t become good at tennis,” Mattel explains. “Seeing a drag queen on TV doesn&#039;t make your child turn gay. Honestly, I just invite people to appreciate this show for what it is… which is fabulous artists performing.”&lt;/p&gt;
  926.  
  927. &lt;p&gt;&quot;Queen of the Universe&quot; returns June 2nd on Paramount+&lt;/p&gt;

  985. &lt;p&gt;As this year&#039;s AAPI Heritage Month comes to a close, GLAAD is highlighting seven out, proud and impressive LGBTQ journalists and media personalities who are helping to re-write the scripts for representation in their professional fields.&lt;/p&gt;
  986.  
  987. &lt;p&gt;Give them a follow and share and get to know the important work they&#039;re part of in accelerating acceptance for the LGBQ community by simply being themselves in every room they walk into.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  988.  
  989. &lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Reggie Aqui&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  990.  
  991. &lt;p&gt;ABC-7’s Reggie Aqui is the Bay Area’s true spirit of Aloha. Ever-embracing of his Hawaiian and Filipino roots, Reggie is a vivacious, passionate and trusted veteran journalist. A 34th Annual GLAAD Media Award nominee for his outstanding reporting amid the Mpox outbreak of 2021, Reggie leans on his lived, unapologetic and queer experiences to connect with audiences in ways that build relationships with journalistic integrity. Reggie challenges the storytelling status quo by&amp;nbsp;telling&amp;nbsp;it like it is and resides in San Fransisco with his husband Phil and dog, Woodstock.&lt;/p&gt;

  1057. &lt;p&gt;Newly-crowned RuPaul’s Drag Race season 15 winner, Sasha Colby, is the show’s first Native transgender-Hawaiian competitor and winner. While Miss Colby may just be getting her flowers now, she has been an influential figure and true force for change and inclusion in our vibrant queer community. In a recent interview with GLAAD, Sasha said, “I am walking, living proof that all of what they’re saying is not true… I’m not hurting anybody,” she said. “We’re happy trans people. We are not going anywhere.”&lt;/p&gt;

  1189. &lt;p&gt;You may know sweet Tanny France best from “Queer Eye” on Netflix, but Tan has in fact been a successful fashion designer for over 15 years and is now a best-selling author and co-hosts “Next in Fashion” with the fabulous Gigi Hadid. A fierce defender of social justice across all dimensions of equality, Tan recently joined fellow celebrities to stand in solidarity with the AAPI community and demand accurate and respectful and representation of Asian Americans and anyone who may have a touchpoint to Asian descent and heritage. The U.K.-born South Asian fashionista was naturalized as a U.S. citizen in 2020, and just this week officially welcomed he and his husband Rob’s second child into their sweet, growing and loving family.&lt;/p&gt;

  1321. &lt;p&gt;You may first recognize Kal Penn from massive TV and film hits like Designated Survivor, and Harold &amp;amp; Kumar, but in addition to actor, his titles include author, journalist, professor and former White House staffer. That’s right, Kal Penn put the Penn in Pennsylvania Ave, going from White Castle to the White House, joining the Obama administration in 2009 as Principal Associate Editor in the White House Office of Public Engagement. A year prior, in 2008, Kal also served as a guest lecturer at the University of Pennsylvania. Kal made major headlines when his coming out announcement last year included the reveal that he was engaged to his partner, Josh, of 11 years. The proud South Asian American detailed his love story in his memoir, “You Can’t Be Serious,” and appeared recently as a week-long guest host of The Daily Show.&lt;/p&gt;

  1387. &lt;p&gt;Canadian YouTuber, television host, comedian, writer, actress and oh-so-much more, Lili Singh began making YouTube videos in 2010. Originally appearing under the pseudonym “Superwoman,” little would she know then that she would become that to so many she would inspire by stepping out into her truth. In 2019, Lily tweeted check boxes marked “Female,” “Coloured,” and “Bisexual,“ saying in part: No matter how many “boxes” you check, I encourage you to do the same.”&lt;/p&gt;

  1489. &lt;p&gt;Hulu’s new queer reality series &lt;em&gt;Drag Me to Dinner&lt;/em&gt; premieres this week on Wednesday! Each episode of the show features two teams of celebrated drag performers going head to head to throw the best dinner party possible. The winner is decided by a panel of judges comprised of gay actor and icon Neil Patrick Harris, legendary drag queen and Drag Race winner Bianca Del Rio, and Haneefah Wood. The show is hosted by comedian and drag king Murray Hill, and features gay actor David Burtka as a resident expert on all things dinner party. The first episode pits Jinkx Monsoon and BenDeLaCreme against Sherry Vine and Jackie Beat, with more exciting pairs to follow in the ten episode series! &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Drag Me to Dinner&lt;/em&gt;, Wednesdays on Hulu&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  1495. &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Love Allways&lt;/em&gt;, a new pansexual dating show from Paramount+, airs its first three episodes this week! The show centers Lexi Paloma as a bachelorette, slowly narrowing down her group of suitors until eventually one is chosen. However, in the process, some of the pansexual contestants fall for each other, leading to chaos in the game. There are two teams as well, each assigned a coach, who hopes that Lexi ultimately chooses one of their singles. We can’t wait to see how this turns out. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Love Allways&lt;/em&gt;, Fridays on Paramount+&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  1607.    <description>&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-field-blog-featured field-type-file field-label-hidden&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot;&gt;&lt;span id=&quot;styles-6-0&quot; class=&quot;styles file-styles 750px&quot;&gt;  &lt;img width=&quot;4378&quot; height=&quot;2919&quot; id=&quot;6&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/750px/public/images/2023-05/RPDRAS_S8_Episode_804_0061_RT.JPG?itok=fMZbjsSJ&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item even&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;SPOILER ALERT: This article contains details about the episode 4 of&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1608.  
  1609. &lt;p&gt;It feels like things are about to get messy. As Kahanna says, “Bitch, ain’t nobody safe!”&lt;/p&gt;
  1610.  
  1611. &lt;p&gt;Another &lt;em&gt;All-Stars &lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;lip sync has sent a queen home. Mrs. Kasha Davis has left the Werk Room and Jessica is on cloud nine for winning the aforementioned lip sync against assassin Ra’Jah O’Hara. She also won a smooth $30K.&lt;/p&gt;
  1612.  
  1613. &lt;p&gt;Darienne, who was in the bottom with Kasha, tallies the lip sticks to see how the voting panned – and it was a close one. 5 queens voted for Kasha while 4 voted for Darienne. One of those votes for Darienne was Kasha but who were the other 3?&lt;/p&gt;
  1614.  
  1615. &lt;p&gt;Jaymes, Heidi, and Jimbo raise their hands immediately and for the most part they are judging off track record and this puts a fire underneath Darrienne’s ass. “I feel like a fat kid on a wicker couch,” she admits.&lt;/p&gt;
  1616.  
  1617. &lt;p&gt;Based on last week’s &lt;em&gt;Untucked &lt;/em&gt;we saw some resentment start to bubble up as a lot of queens seemed to be a little sour about Jessica winning. And let’s not forget that at one point Heidi said she wanted to go home. Jessica straight up asks the other queens if they were mad about her winning the challenge.&lt;/p&gt;
  1618.  
  1619. &lt;p&gt;Jaymes and Kahanna admit they were shocked she won but she deserved it. Heidi is upset because she still hasn’t won a challenge and it puts some weight on her congratulatory greetings towards Jessica, who is hot off a strong win and is “in fight mode”.&lt;/p&gt;
  1620.  
  1621. &lt;p&gt;After Heidi confuses “hymen” with “Heisman” (as in trophy), a pimped-out RuPaul pops in to give the queens their maxi-challenge: they must create a trailers for a scripted series for “Must She TV”. To choose teams, they use the good ol’ poppin’ balloons against the Pit Crew’s privates method. The teams are as follows:&lt;/p&gt;
  1622.  
  1623. &lt;ul&gt;
  1624. &lt;li&gt;LaLa, Heidi, Kahanna&lt;/li&gt;
  1625. &lt;li&gt;Kandy, Jimbo, Jessica&lt;/li&gt;
  1626. &lt;li&gt;Darienne, Jaymes, Alexis&lt;/li&gt;
  1627. &lt;/ul&gt;
  1628.  
  1629. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/RPDRAS_S8_Episode_804_0059_RT.JPG?itok=xRZBNTKo&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1630.  
  1631. &lt;p&gt;During their meeting, Darienne, Jaymes, and Alexis decide on a &lt;em&gt;Lost&lt;/em&gt;-esque premise where three women are shipwrecked on a deserted island which turns out to be a world where dead celebrities exist. It sounds convoluted and even Alexis voices this, but it seems like Darienne and Jaymes are confident they can pull this off. Alexis is still uneasy, but puts her trust in her teammates.&lt;/p&gt;
  1632.  
  1633. &lt;p&gt;LaLa, Heidi, and Kahanna &amp;nbsp;are going for a series about Kahanna’s character getting kidnapped by two bumbling idiots played by her teammates. Then Kahanna says something about smelling tucking panties and it doesn’t land and leaves everyone confused.&lt;/p&gt;
  1634.  
  1635. &lt;p&gt;Over at Team K.J.J. (Kandy, Jimbo and Jessica), they are concocting a high school horror series that’s giving Ryan Murphy-meets-&lt;em&gt;Carrie&lt;/em&gt; tea.&lt;/p&gt;
  1636.  
  1637. &lt;p&gt;My money is on Darienne, Jaymes and Alex for this maxi-challenge with Kandy, Jimbo and Jessica in a close second. However, Kandy is very confident about her team until she and Jimbo start butting heads on when it comes to the direction of the series. They might be in danger, but also they may have an upper hand because they are openly communicating their strong opinions to each other.&lt;/p&gt;
  1638.  
  1639. &lt;p&gt;It&#039;s time to shoot their trailers under the direction of Michelle Visage. Team K.J.J. gets a little too naughty for audiences – even Michelle was like, “Tone it down.” Overall, it&amp;nbsp; feels like Team K.J.J. is gonna deliver the goods with Jimbo as the MVP.&lt;/p&gt;
  1640.  
  1641. &lt;p&gt;LaLa , Heidi, and Kahanna are funny in their series. LaLa and Heidi are delivering some strong comedic moments. Kahanna, who admits she needs to redeem herself after her bland &lt;em&gt;RPDR Live! &lt;/em&gt;performance, struggles a bit but seems to find her footing.&lt;/p&gt;
  1642.  
  1643. &lt;p&gt;Like Alexis, Michelle doesn’t seem confident about her, Darriene and Jaymes’s concept. And it’s a struggle to watch them put together. It’s a little rocky. Michelle’s reactions seemed agnostic and now I feel like their group is in danger, girl.&lt;/p&gt;
  1644.  
  1645. &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1646.  
  1647. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;2&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/RPDRAS_S8_Episode_804_0062_RT.JPG?itok=3uCh3EoO&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1648.  
  1649. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;3&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/RPDRAS_S8_Episode_804_0063_RT.JPG?itok=cjmlGH8J&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1650.  
  1651. &lt;p&gt;The next day, the queens come back to create their key art for their TV shows and prepare for the runway show. As LaLa reveals, the runway category this week is “ASS THE WORLD TURNS”. If you don’t understand that you better ass somebody.&lt;/p&gt;
  1652.  
  1653. &lt;p&gt;Alexis is nervous about being in the bottom even though Darienne and Jaymes feel like they did well. On the outside it looks like they are confident but there is an inflection in their voices that make me think otherwise.&lt;/p&gt;
  1654.  
  1655. &lt;p&gt;And now, here comes a drama-stirring moment.&lt;/p&gt;
  1656.  
  1657. &lt;p&gt;Kandy tells Jimbo that the other queens know that she is huge competition and that the moment they have the chance to vote him home, they will. Kandy and Jessica feel the same way about her place. They agree to protect each other if they are in the bottom.&lt;/p&gt;
  1658.  
  1659. &lt;p&gt;“I don’t think I can show the girls, I can influence the girls,” Kandy admits in her confessional.&lt;/p&gt;
  1660.  
  1661. &lt;p&gt;Uh-oh. &amp;nbsp;Miss Kandy is up to something.&lt;/p&gt;
  1662.  
  1663. &lt;p&gt;As Kandy talks to Alexis in the Werk Room, and gets her to admit that &amp;nbsp;Jaymes was the weakest link in their group and has been coasting by.&lt;/p&gt;
  1664.  
  1665. &lt;p&gt;“I plant seeds here and there to keep everybody’s eyes off of me,” she admits again in confessional with a scheming smile.&lt;/p&gt;
  1666.  
  1667. &lt;p&gt;This brings us to Kandy approaching Heidi about her “I’m going home” moment during &lt;em&gt;Untucked&lt;/em&gt;. Heidi doesn’t seem like she wants to talk about it but admits that it was a moment of severe frustration.&lt;/p&gt;
  1668.  
  1669. &lt;p&gt;In Heidi’s confessional, she is pissed at Kandy for bringing up her struggles in front of everyone because they are supposed to be in an alliance. She thinks that puts a target on her back.&lt;/p&gt;
  1670.  
  1671. &lt;p&gt;“Just because I had a moment of being upset doesn’t mean it takes away from anything I can bring to the table, “ Heidi tells LaLa in the Werk Room. She says that she is a very nice person as opposed to other queens who try to make others look bad.&lt;/p&gt;
  1672.  
  1673. &lt;p&gt;This was clearly directed at Kandy because we learn that Heidi has some secrets to spill about her – and based on context, it is some delicious tea. “I have tea that will burn this competition down!” Heidi declares in a confessional.&lt;/p&gt;
  1674.  
  1675. &lt;p&gt;Heidi is making us thirsty, and I feel like our thirst will be quenched later this season.&lt;/p&gt;
  1676.  
  1677. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;4&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/RPDRAS_S8_Episode_804_0040_RT.JPG?itok=XreTL6zs&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1678.  
  1679. &lt;p&gt;It’s runway time and Ru is looking sculpturally spectacular in a gown and windblown punk rock hair that is absolutely sickening. She welcomes resident judges Michelle Visage and Ts Madison as well as guest judge Maude Apatow.&lt;/p&gt;
  1680.  
  1681. &lt;p&gt;The queens sashayed on to the runway in their “Ass The World Turns” lewks and this is how they fared:&lt;/p&gt;
  1682.  
  1683. &lt;ul&gt;
  1684. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jaymes:&lt;/strong&gt; Loved this ass spectacular. If we are judging solely on padding, Jaymes is the winner. Also love how she’s leaning into her Mexican and indigenous roots.&lt;/li&gt;
  1685. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Darienne: &lt;/strong&gt;This is probably the best I have ever seen Darienne. A gorgeous &lt;em&gt;Barberella-&lt;/em&gt;esque bronze lewk with red hair and gorgeous curves and swerves.&lt;/li&gt;
  1686. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alexis&lt;/strong&gt;: I love an ass out bridal moment. And Alexis’s face is B&lt;strong&gt;.E.A.T.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  1687. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kandy&lt;/strong&gt;: The inflatable hair is reminding me of Yvie’s lewk from &lt;em&gt;All-Stars&lt;/em&gt; the all-winners season – and I’m lovin’ it. I’m so here for a slutty anime moment with a bubble but&lt;/li&gt;
  1688. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jessica&lt;/strong&gt;: She puts ASS in CLASSY. The most glamorous ass lewk of the night.&lt;/li&gt;
  1689. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jimbo&lt;/strong&gt;: All hail the alien titty ass queen.&lt;/li&gt;
  1690. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Heidi&lt;/strong&gt;: It’s giving Cardi B-yore. Extra points for taking the category to inappropriate levels of Winnie the Pooh skankiness.&lt;/li&gt;
  1691. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Kahanna: &lt;/strong&gt;It’s a slutty latex nurse outfit with a huge syringe. That’s not too impressive but her actual ass is.&lt;/li&gt;
  1692. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;LaLa: &lt;/strong&gt;I appreciate this “business in the front, slutty in the back” outfit but not totally sold on it.&lt;/li&gt;
  1693. &lt;/ul&gt;
  1694.  
  1695. &lt;p&gt;We watch the television trailers and as expected, Darienne, Alexis and Jaymes’s trailer for &lt;em&gt;Get Off Island &lt;/em&gt;and, although funny, it’s kind of flat --&amp;nbsp; and it just feels long. Very long. &amp;nbsp;Each girl has their moment, but unfortunately compared to the other teams’ trailers and the comments they received, it’s clear they are should be ready to be in the bottom.&lt;/p&gt;
  1696.  
  1697. &lt;p&gt;From the jump, Team K.J.J.’s trailer is killing it. The judges are laughing and Kandy, Jessica, and Jimbo are finding a good rhythm with their &lt;em&gt;Carrie&lt;/em&gt;-esque series. As expected, Jimbo is clearly the standout.&lt;/p&gt;
  1698.  
  1699. &lt;p&gt;I hold my breath as I watch LaLa, Heidi, and Kahanna’s trailer in fear that it will be an utter disaster – but it’s not. It’s pretty decent. Heidi and LaLa work well together and Kahanna sees some improvement from her &lt;em&gt;RPDR Live! &lt;/em&gt;days. The trailer is a little odd but it works – and it’s better than &lt;em&gt;Get Off Island.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1700.  
  1701. &lt;p&gt;Mama Ru says they judged them as groups and have made some decisions. LaLa, Heidi, and Heidi are safe. Darienne, Alexis, and Jaymes are in the bottom which makes Kandy, Jimbo, and Jessica the winning team.&lt;/p&gt;
  1702.  
  1703. &lt;p&gt;Jaymes is getting some bad critiques for her performance. Michelle essentially said she wasn’t funny in the trailer – but the panel loves that ass. Meanwhile, Darienne gets some good reviews for her performance and outfit. She feels safe, but this would be the third time in the bottom if she was in the bottom. Finally, Alexis gets praised for her assless wedding gown – and then she starts talking after Ru calls their trailer “pleasant”.&lt;/p&gt;
  1704.  
  1705. &lt;p&gt;Alexis apologizes for the confusing concept of &lt;em&gt;Get Off Island &lt;/em&gt;and wastes no time in pointing the finger at Darienne as the person responsible for it. She doesn’t say it, but it feels like Darienne is being attacked and no one has her back. Alexis just threw her under that bus, but Darienne defends herself and says that she wanted to something unexpected and took a risk. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like that risk is paying off.&lt;/p&gt;
  1706.  
  1707. &lt;p&gt;The judges are gushing over every single performance from Team K.J.J. in the &lt;em&gt;Mean Girls &lt;/em&gt;meets &lt;em&gt;Carrie&lt;/em&gt; horror series. They LOVED it and rightfully so. It was focused, funny and it worked well. They loved all of them and their lewks. Kandy, Jimbo and Jessica are the stars of this week’s episode.&lt;/p&gt;
  1708.  
  1709. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/RPDRAS_S8_Episode_804_0066_RT.JPG?itok=secUO9J3&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1710.  
  1711. &lt;p&gt;Jimbo and his dick-filled titty butt end up winning. Jaymes, Darienne, and Jaymes are all up for elimination.&lt;/p&gt;
  1712.  
  1713. &lt;p&gt;After the lip stick vote takes place, Jimbo takes the stage to go up against this week’s Lip Sync Assassin: Shannel from season 1!&lt;/p&gt;
  1714.  
  1715. &lt;p&gt;The two lip sync to the tune of Joan Jett’s “Bad Reputation” and it feels like veteran Shannel is commanding the stage but there’s something about Jimbo – and I think it’s her boobs.&lt;/p&gt;
  1716.  
  1717. &lt;p&gt;Ru names Shannel the winner of the lip sync!&lt;/p&gt;
  1718.  
  1719. &lt;p&gt;Shannel pulls the lip stick of the queen who the group decided to send home: Darienne.&lt;/p&gt;
  1720.

  1738.  
  1739. &lt;ul&gt;
  1740. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/blog/anti-drag-report&quot;&gt;More than 160 LGBTQ community events have been targeted&lt;/a&gt; with violence and threats in the past year. Everything from firebombing a donut shop to armed militias showing up at public libraries of all places.&lt;/li&gt;
  1741. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://news.gallup.com/poll/470708/lgbt-identification-steady.aspx&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Gallup found over 20% of Gen Z are LGBT,&lt;/a&gt; that number has grown each year.&lt;/li&gt;
  1742. &lt;li&gt;For four consecutive waves, fielded annually, GLAAD has found that non-LGBTQ people&#039;s level of comfort seeing LGBTQ people in ads has remained stable at 75% (3 out of 4 non-LGBTQ people). You can see the original question in the link below and &lt;a href=&quot;/releases/procter-gamble-and-glaad-study-exposure-lgbtq-representation-media-and-advertising-leads&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  1743. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/blog/new-study-glaad-and-edelman-trust-institute-finds-majority-americans-expect-businesses-speak&quot;&gt;A report released in December 2022 by GLAAD and the Edelman Trust Institute found&lt;/a&gt;: If a brand publicly supports and demonstrates a commitment to expanding and protecting LGBTQ rights, Americans are 2x more likely to buy or use the brand and ages 18-34 are 5.5x more likely to want to work at a company if it publicly supports and demonstrates a commitment to expanding and protecting LGBTQ rights. &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.edelman.com/sites/g/files/aatuss191/files/2022-12/Top%20Insights_Business%20and%20LGBTQ%2BRights%20in%20the%20U.S._FINAL.pdf&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Additional findings here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;

  1745. &lt;ul&gt;
  1746. &lt;li&gt;More than half (54%) of transgender and nonbinary people feel unsafe walking in their own neighborhoods, compared to 36% of all LGBTQ adults, as well as less safe in various environments, from work, to social media, or in a typical store.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  1747. &lt;/ul&gt;
  1748. &lt;/li&gt;
  1749. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/releases/procter-gamble-and-glaad-study-exposure-lgbtq-representation-media-and-advertising-leads&quot;&gt;A 2020 GLAAD and P&amp;amp;G poll of U.S. consumers found&lt;/a&gt;:&amp;nbsp;
  1750. &lt;ul style=&quot;list-style-type:circle;&quot;&gt;
  1751. &lt;li&gt;75% of respondents were comfortable seeing LGBTQ people in ads.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  1752. &lt;li&gt;Respondents also looked favorably upon companies that included LGBTQ people in their advertisements.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  1753. &lt;li&gt;85% of respondents believe it reflects the company’s commitment to offering products to all types of customers.&lt;/li&gt;
  1754. &lt;li&gt;82% of respondents believe that it reflects the company’s value for all kinds of diversity.&lt;/li&gt;
  1755. &lt;li&gt;80% of respondents believe that it reflects that the company is making a statement about the importance of recognizing LGBTQ people.&lt;/li&gt;

  1780. &lt;br&gt;
  1781. To kick us off is the release of the first trailer for&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Problemista&lt;/em&gt;. Written and directed by Julio Torres, the surreal story follows&amp;nbsp;Alejandro (an aspiring toy designer from El Salvador played by Torres) as time runs out on his work visa. Alejandro takes on&amp;nbsp;a job assisting an erratic art-world outcast becomes his only hope to stay in the country. The trailer features Torres&#039;s co-star Tilda Swinton, as well as an appearance from Spike Einbinder who you may remember from their incredible portrayal of &quot;Sombra del Agua&quot; on&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Los Espookys.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1782.

  1784.  
  1785. &lt;p&gt;As we wrote about last week, &lt;em&gt;Problemista &lt;/em&gt;will &lt;a href=&quot;https://newfest.org/events/problemista/&quot;&gt;screen at NewFest Pride&amp;nbsp;in New York on June 2nd&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and at &lt;a href=&quot;https://laliff.org/festival/2023/problemista&quot;&gt;LALIFF in Los Angeles on June 4th&lt;/a&gt;. Speaking of film festivals, we&#039;ve got&amp;nbsp;two recently-announced film and television festival events to share&amp;nbsp;below.&lt;br&gt;
  1786. &lt;br&gt;
  1787. &lt;strong&gt;THE OUTFRONTS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1788.  
  1789. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6269b122d85e045a6b79c01a/3c85d7d5-1016-4665-af08-e3e8ff4aee43/sqUjePRE.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 599px; height: 285px;&quot;&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1790.  
  1791. &lt;p&gt;Outfest&#039;s four day LGBTQ+ television festival kicks off Pride Week with panels and conversations, featuring the people behind some of this year&#039;s hottest queer television shows like&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;With Love,&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Our Flag Means Death&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;Somebody Somewhere&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;The Other Two&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
  1792.  
  1793. &lt;p&gt;Check out the &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.theoutfronts.com/&quot;&gt;full panel&amp;nbsp;lineup here&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;The Outfront panels will screen from June 2nd - June 5th, with Outfest occuring July 13th - July 23rd.&lt;br&gt;
  1794. &lt;br&gt;
  1795. &lt;strong&gt;PRIDE FILM FEST CHICAGO&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1796.  
  1797. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img title=&quot;Los agitadors - Pride Film Fest 2023&quot; style=&quot;height: 281px; width: 400px;&quot; class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/52785830124_6c1dbc6558_c.jpg?itok=KpxKb2lp&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  1798. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;small&gt;&lt;cite&gt;&lt;i&gt;Horseplay&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  1799. &lt;br&gt;
  1800. The Pride Film Fest will celebrate the&amp;nbsp;month of June with three programs of short LGBT films from around the world and an in-person screening of the Argentine film &lt;em&gt;Horseplay&lt;/em&gt; (&lt;em&gt;Los agitadores&lt;/em&gt;), directed by Marco Berger, at Chicago’s Facets on June 22nd.&lt;/p&gt;
  1801.  
  1802. &lt;p&gt;The first program, entitled BEST OF THE FEST 1, is a compilation of films that will include&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Flores del otro patio,&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;directed by Jorge Cadena, a political short from Colombia where&amp;nbsp;a group of queer activists use extravagant performative actions to fight against the various social injustices that plague the region.&lt;/p&gt;
  1803.  
  1804. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://assets.mubicdn.net/images/film/365572/image-w1280.jpg?1671309254&quot; style=&quot;width: 400px; height: 281px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  1805. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;small&gt;&lt;cite&gt;&lt;em&gt;Flores del otro patio&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/cite&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1806.  
  1807. &lt;p&gt;BEST OF THE FEST&amp;nbsp;1 will stream from June 14-25&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;Horseplay &lt;/em&gt;will screen in person&amp;nbsp;at Chicago’s Facets on June 22nd.

Based on queer author Casey McQuinston’s critically acclaimed &lt;em&gt;New York Times&lt;/em&gt; best-seller, &lt;em&gt;Red, White &amp;amp; Royal Blue&lt;/em&gt; marks the feature film writing and directing debut of gay Tony Award-winning playwright Matthew López. In the film, Alex Claremont-Diaz (Taylor Zakhar Perez), the son of the President of the United States (Uma Thurman), and Britain’s Prince Henry (Nicholas Galitzine) have a lot in common: Stunning good looks, undeniable charisma, international popularity… and a total disdain for each other. After a very public altercation becomes tabloid fodder, their families and handlers force the two rivals into a staged “truce.” But as Alex and Henry’s icy relationship unexpectedly begins to thaw into a tentative friendship, the friction that existed between them sparks something deeper than they ever expected.

As the title implies, Molly’s got some big plans to be photographed sporting a dapper tuxedo, but mom wants her in a dress! Molly just wants to show everyone that she looks &lt;em&gt;and&lt;/em&gt; feels much better in a tux.&lt;/p&gt;
  2094.  
  2095. &lt;p&gt;Even amid the pushback, &lt;em&gt;Molly’s Tuxedo &lt;/em&gt;is a wonderful story about how being yourself is always in style. With the current influx of legislative attacks against queer and trans kids, &lt;em&gt;Molly’s Tuxedo&lt;/em&gt; is a powerful read on the importance of exploring gender expression, especially at a young age. GLAAD sat down with Vicki to chat about growing up queer in the South, and why Molly’s dilemma on picture day is a story that’s important for any kid to hear today.&lt;/p&gt;
  2096.  
  2097. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Molly&#039;s Tuxedo Author Vicki Johnson&quot; src=&quot;https://assets.glaad.org/m/ef6ef5d6cf634d1/original/Mollys-Tuxedo-Vicki-Johnson.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 164px; height: 170px; float: right;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2098.  
  2099. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. What motivated you to write Molly’s Tuxedo? &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2100.  
  2101. &lt;p&gt;Molly is a kindergartener with big plans to wear her brother’s dashing tuxedo for picture day, but her mom has picked out a dress. Molly has a strong sense of self though, and her character arc is all about being true to that, even in the face of initial resistance from her family. This story resonates strongly with me. The inspiration for the story comes from my own experiences growing up gay and gender nonconforming in the very conservative world of the deep South in the 70’s and 80’s. The reason I wrote this when I did was that I had seen a couple of news items in 2019 where young people were being gender policed about their clothes. This continuous need to control kids’ clothing choices (and adults’ clothes, too, let’s be real) really struck a nerve. I just had to write something down to explore those feelings I remember so vividly from my own childhood after so many years. I have a family photo of me from 1972 wearing my brother’s Sears husky suit with a clip-on tie, and I look so happy and confident. Fifty years later, one would like to think the issue is over and settled, but for so many young people today in all parts of the country, it’s still a struggle. I’m grateful that GLAAD in its publishing partnership with Little Bee Books sees the value in exploring these issues and supports my book so that it gets into the hands of the young readers who need it.&lt;/p&gt;
  2102.  
  2103. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. What advice do you have for queer kids living in the South right now? What would you say to kids trying to figure out their own gender identities?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2104.  
  2105. &lt;p&gt;The South is a vast, diverse, and beautiful place, yet undeniably challenging. And every person’s experience is really different, for sure. Growing up anywhere where you feel your life is scrutinized or minimized, or where there is an active homophobic or transphobic environment around you can feel scary and lonely. I remember those feelings well. You might feel like nobody understands you, and you wonder how can you have a level of happiness others get to have. What I can say is that it gets so much better. You will grow up and own your power to make decisions about your life, your friends, and your community and support systems. You will find your light and you get to shine it wherever and however you want. You get to be who you are however you identify yourself. In the meantime, while you are a young person, and if you are struggling, reach out: to your friends or a safe and supportive adult, a teacher or counselor perhaps. Read, hang out with friends, listen to music, and look for role models to inspire you in media. We need you, and we want you in whatever beautiful way you grow up to be, shining your light.&lt;/p&gt;
  2106.  
  2107. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. What are your hopes for Molly’s Tuxedo? What kinds of things do you want kids to get out of reading it?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2108.  
  2109. &lt;p&gt;My hopes for Molly’s Tuxedo are that young readers come away knowing it’s okay to listen to their inner compass, to be brave, and to be themselves, even if it means they make different choices than others. I want them to know they are perfect just the way they are. I want them to feel seen and heard and full of love for themselves! I hope adult caregivers understand that children have rich interior lives and they are constantly demonstrating who they are if we listen carefully and allow them the room to show us. I’d love for adults also to come away feeling empowered to change their minds or consider things in a different light when necessary. We all have the capacity to learn and change and flourish.&lt;/p&gt;
  2110.  
  2111. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Molly&#039;s Tuxedo Illustration&quot; src=&quot;https://assets.glaad.org/m/5459be7ca273a55c/original/Mollys-Tuxedo-3.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 468px; height: 295px;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2112.  
  2113. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. As a queer Southerner myself I know it can be tough sometimes even existing in certain spaces, can you share a bit about how you found/find queer joy even in tougher circumstances, growing up in Georgia? &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2114.  
  2115. &lt;p&gt;I grew up and came out decades ago in the South. It was not easy, but it made me who I am, and no matter where I live, I will always be a Southerner. When I was young, I basically took my own advice from above, which meant I spent time with my good friends who cared about me, listened to a lot of music, and read widely: books, newspapers, and magazines – this was before the internet. I found joy in being my authentic self as much as my surroundings would allow, and cultivated my own interests in politics and culture, knowing I would one day be able to make decisions as an adult, go to college, and find a bigger LGBTQ+ community, which I did! Despite the challenges, I have some wonderful memories of growing up, and all the ways that I came into my own. Growing up in the South meant I grew up hearing stories, observing people, and learning our collective histories, both the good and the horrible, in a unique mix of experiences and cadences that will always be a part of me and my writing.&lt;/p&gt;
  2116.  
  2117. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Queer representation has come a long way, but we can see that even the previous decade didn’t have the same level of visibility. What icons, books, or movies did you look up to and enjoy growing up even without overt and widespread queer representation?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2118.  
  2119. &lt;p&gt;I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s where there was a wonderful mix of feminism and high camp, mixed in with educational media of all kinds. While there was little to no openly-LGBTQ+ representation, there were lots of shows in which many of us recognized ourselves or that formed the overall imputed-queer canon we collectively reminisce about. I watched &lt;em&gt;Sesame Street&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Zoom&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Scooby-Doo&lt;/em&gt; and all the cartoons. I read comics and all the horse books and biographies when I was really young, and I moved on to “classic” novels, nonfiction, and Ms. magazine in my teens. In middle school, I listened to my Grease album over and over with friends, and we knew every line of the movie! I mean, Olivia Newton-John! There were new depictions of women action heroes hitting the screen and I was a huge fan of Bionic Woman, Wonder Woman, Princess Leia, the original Charlie’s&lt;/p&gt;
  2120.  
  2121. &lt;p&gt;Angels, Sarah Connor, and Ellen Ripley. I loved MAD magazine and early SNL for humor and political satire which fed my intellect, and I always read the newspaper political cartoons first. Music was probably one of my most important outlets: Joan Jett, Pat Benatar, Blondie, and Heart were some of my favorites on the radio.&lt;/p&gt;
  2122.  
  2123. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Molly&#039;s Tuxedo Illustration&quot; src=&quot;https://assets.glaad.org/m/45f09ba6224943e7/original/Mollys-Tuxedo-4.png&quot; style=&quot;width: 145px; height: 187px;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2124.  
  2125. &lt;p&gt;Pick up a copy of Molly’s&lt;em&gt; Tuxedo&lt;/em&gt; just in time for Pride month, when it hits shelves on June 27, 2023.&lt;/p&gt;

  2351. &lt;li&gt;Condemned the Walt Disney Company following Disney chief executive Bob Chapek’s acknowledgement of error in staying silent on Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” legislation and subsequent public opposition to the legislation which DeSantis signed into law.&lt;/li&gt;

  2374.

  2386.  
  2387. &lt;ul&gt;
  2388. &lt;li&gt;The “Issues” section on his campaign site reads, “The radical Left wants to indoctrinate our children, not educate them. Tim Scott will fight to ensure that America’s kids are learning how to read and write, not about gender transition and sexual identity before it’s appropriate.”&lt;/li&gt;

  2393. &lt;li&gt;Supported The First Amendment Defense Act, which would’ve prevented “the federal government from taking adverse action against individuals or institutions based on their definition of marriage or beliefs about premarital sex.”&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  2394. &lt;li&gt;Voted against the Employment Nondiscrimination Act, which would have granted basic job protections to LGBTQ people&lt;/li&gt;
  2395. &lt;/ul&gt;

  2400.  
  2401. &lt;p&gt;Currently there are no plans to hold a Democratic primary contest to challenge incumbent President Joe Biden (below). GLAAD is monitoring the Biden-Harris administration’s executive orders, legislative support, speeches and nominations that affect LGBTQ people and rights at the &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.glaad.org/biden-harris&quot;&gt;Biden Accountability Tracker&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;GLAAD has documented more than 200 policies, statements, and appointments to include and protect LGBTQ people in Biden&#039;s&amp;nbsp;administration&#039;s first two years.&lt;/p&gt;

  2404.  
  2405. &lt;p&gt;More candidate records will be added as candidates declare.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  2406.  
  2407. &lt;p&gt;GLAAD urges the media to include LGBTQ people and issues in their coverage of the primary and general election campaign, and ask the candidates about their public statements, policies and proposals, including in debates.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

As a dynamic media force, GLAAD tackles tough issues to shape the narrative and provoke dialogue that leads to cultural change. GLAAD protects all that has been accomplished and creates a world where everyone can live the life they love.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

  2440.  
  2441. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;7&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/Normal%20Anomaly%20Team_0.jpg?itok=Kj_mqQ5b&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2442.  
  2443. &lt;p&gt;Held on May 3-7, 2023, the Black Queer Advancement Festival (BQAF) was a weekend to remember in Houston, Texas. The 2nd Annual Black Queer Advancement Festival yet again announced to not only the city, but the country at large, that we are here and we are &quot;Blacker and Queerer than ever!&quot; The festival&amp;nbsp;used arts, culture and awareness to reach thousands of people locally and throughout the Southern region of the United States.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  2444.  
  2445. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;4&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/Hosts%20for%20Music%20Fest.jpg?itok=F0VMNMDd&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2446.  
  2447. &lt;p&gt;This year was our year to expand. In addition to the music festival, our second year added a pageant, crowning Shayla Nicole and Tylee Sanchez, a 2-day forum, and a Sunday service. We really focused on community-based partnerships in a major way, partnering&amp;nbsp;with over 20 organizations around the country including our presenting sponsor, ViiV|Accelerate, and our powered by partner, Change The Pattern. The forum spoke with elected officials about the anti-drag bills being proposed&amp;nbsp;in our legislative sessions, and asked for their support and advice to mitigate the damage of the forthcoming passage of these bills. We also had an empowering conversation with womxn across the spectrum to talk about allyship amongst womxn and a mental health townhall that was filmed by our local TV partner, ABC13, for their Action 13 online news segment.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  2448.  
  2449. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;2&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/Mental%20Health%20Townhall.JPG?itok=z3VzuZfD&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2450.  
  2451. &lt;p&gt;The forum also included the first ever BQAF Hall Of Fame that honored trail blazers in the Houston Queer Community and beyond, which included a special posthumous presentation&amp;nbsp;for the Dallas activist, icon, founder of Abounding Prosperity, and former President of Dallas Southern Pride,&amp;nbsp;Kirk Myers-Hill. To close out the forum, we hosted a pitch competition between liberators, in front of funders and seasoned business owners, for a prize package of $2500 and a start-up EPK kit; Boogie’s Boiling won the grand prize.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  2452.  
  2453. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;3&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/Hall%20of%20Fame.JPG?itok=ZSU_3RFQ&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2454.  
  2455. &lt;p&gt;Who are liberators? I’m glad you asked.&lt;/p&gt;
  2456.  
  2457. &lt;p&gt;Black Queer Advancement Festival is molded around a program that we have implemented for two years: Project Liberate.&amp;nbsp; Project Liberate is a 9-month business and leadership development&amp;nbsp;program in Houston with a custom built curriculum that teaches how to create sustainability for businesses, whether they are for-profit or non-profit, whilst developing leadership skills, advocacy, and innovators for the future of our community. We call folx who engage in the cohort Liberators because we believe one of the key ways to create a trajectory of freedom for Black, queer people is giving people space to develop the future in which they want to engage with.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  2458.  
  2459. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;6&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/Keke%20Wyatt.jpg?itok=MjLj4QqH&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2460.  
  2461. &lt;p&gt;This leads me to the event in which they launch: The BQAF Music Festival! On top of having an incredible line up that touches just about every part of the spectrum of identity, with headliners such as KenTheMan, Kidd Kenn, and KeKe Wyatt, the liberators were the exclusive vendors. We help develop capstones for their businesses to be introduced, or&amp;nbsp;re-introduced, into the community. For most of the cohort, this was their first time talking about their business in a venue with over 1,400&amp;nbsp; attendees, and we believe it won’t&amp;nbsp; be their last.&lt;/p&gt;
  2462.  
  2463. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;5&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/Kidd%20Kenn%20%281%29.JPG?itok=NNQvOGJj&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2464.  
  2465. &lt;p&gt;Additionally, our organization received a Certificate of Recognition from Representative Jolanda Jones; the first openly Black and lesbian member of the Texas House. The inclusion of 13 different vendors, a cypher, drag performances, and food trucks truly created an experience for everyone.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  2466.  
  2467. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;media-element file-default&quot; data-delta=&quot;1&quot; src=&quot;https://cdn-cf.glaad.org/files/styles/1200px/public/images/2023-05/Rep%20Jones.jpg?itok=QL6BnVgY&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  2468.  
  2469. &lt;p&gt;Another facet of community in the Southern U.S. that we felt should be collaborated with to experience advancement was spirituality. When we consider the impacts of disparities and trauma in our existence, religion is often a major factor. Our Sunday service really took us to an inclusive, powerful, spiritual place at St. Peter’s United! Tiffany Andrews sang heaven down and Pastor Paul Kristofer released a heavenly word into the hearts of over 300 attendees. And you know when you get the community in church, the fashions come out honey. We do not play about looking our best at church.&amp;nbsp;Everywhere I turned was nothing but fashions. Attendees definitely took &quot;Sunday’s best&quot; to another level!&lt;/p&gt;
  2470.  
  2471. &lt;p&gt;Overall, this festival is all about enriching our community in every way we can. From launching 13 businesses into the community, to providing a space to express liberation, to being able to worship without feeling the pressure or weight of judgment upon us when all we seek is love, this festival is not us asking for permission to exist. We do not ask for permission to exist. We demand it! We do not ask to be seen. We demand it! Not only the parts that make you comfortable, but every aspect of who we are. Because we are BLACKER AND QUEERER THAN EVER!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

Between May 31st and June 11th, you can go in person to view films in participating NYC theaters or watch online if you are unable to attend in person. Each in-person cinema event will have live discussions with people involved with the film.&lt;/p&gt;
  2505.  
  2506. &lt;p&gt;One film of particular interest is Into My Name. This is a documentary directed by Niccolò Bassetti with executive producer Elliot Page detailing the lives of trans people living in Italy.&lt;/p&gt;
  2507.  
  2508. &lt;p&gt;Page worked with GLAAD in the past, and continues to be a fierce advocate for accurate trans inclusion in television and film.&lt;/p&gt;
  2509.  
  2510. &lt;p&gt;&quot;Not only is Elliot Page a fine actor, he is also an advocate for equality and justice who continues to educate the world about who trans people really are and about why the current barrage of anti-trans bills promoted by fearmongering politicians are so harmful and unnecessary,&quot; Nick Adams, GLAAD&#039;s Director of Transgender Representation, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.glaad.org/blog/elliot-page-oscar-nominated-star-umbrella-academy-speaks-out-about-being-transgender&quot;&gt;said in 2021&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
  2511.  
  2512. &lt;p&gt;Furthermore, the film is described as a love letter to Bassetti’s own son who is trans, like the protagonists in the film. It follows four transmasculine friends, Andrea, Leo, Nic, and Raff as they confront and try to make sense of the societal and legal landscape around them in response to their own gender identities. It was well received by critics, with one critic from The Film Verdict saying that “Into My Name stands on its own as a sensitive, humanist portrait of four young F to M trans Italians coming into their own.” With recent attacks in the United State’s legislature against trans youth and adults, it is important for beautiful, meaningful stories about the trans community.&lt;/p&gt;

  2515.  
  2516. &lt;p&gt;If you are interested in seeing this film and other poignant stories, &lt;a href=&quot;https://ff.hrw.org/newyork#festival_schedule&quot;&gt;tickets for the Human Rights Watch Film Festival are on sale now&lt;/a&gt;. There are 10 films showing at the festival this year, each of them carrying a touching tale about humanity. This year’s festival might be the best one yet.&lt;/p&gt;

These attacks are falling especially hard on LGBTQ people of color. Spaces for accurate education community-building has been increasingly difficult as anti-LGBTQ activists and politicians in power, and white supremacists spread disinformation that lead to a lack of safety in the LGBTQ community.&lt;/p&gt;
  2539.  
  2540. &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.instagram.com/blkfemmebrunch/&quot;&gt;Black Femme Brunch&lt;/a&gt; is stepping up to help foster community among Black queer people. The organization’s mission is “creating consensual, educational, supported and well–resourced spaces for Black queer and trans folks to explore pleasure, play and build community.” In the midst of attacks on the LGBTQ community and the wide range of orientations, identities, and expressions, we can agree that there needs to be safe spaces for more nuanced conversations and education.&lt;/p&gt;
  2541.  
  2542. &lt;p&gt;This Memorial Day weekend, Black Femme Brunch is hosting RAINBLOW, a space in Washington DC for Black queer and trans individuals to engage in “inquiry, exploration and play in pleasure”. Last year, special attention was given to COVID protocols to ensure that immunocompromised and disabled LGBTQ people would be able to safely participate. This year it is in an even larger venue (with a live DJ!) to ensure that they can keep COVID-safe protocols with more participants. If you are in DC, this is not an event to miss.&lt;/p&gt;
