Description

Celebrate Pride with us by embarking on a riveting journey through history, filled with defiant acts of resistance, breakthroughs in acceptance, and the resilient spirit of the LGBTQ+ community. We promise you a deeper understanding of the roots of Pride that extend beyond the oft-cited Stonewall Riots, and into lesser-known historical narratives such as the Cooper Donuts riots in 1959. We invite you to revel with us as we trace the enduring presence of gender and sexual diversity across time, from the acceptance of same-sex relationships in ancient Greece to the revered two-spirit individuals in many indigenous cultures.As we celebrate progress, we also shine a light on the daunting challenges that persist, with over 490 anti-LGBTQ+ bills across the U.S. and the crucial role of B Corps in advocating for LGBTQ+ rights. Your presence here is a beacon of hope, an encouraging sign of your willingness to learn and stand in solidarity with us. Listen in as we offer insights into how businesses can foster inclusivity, while also featuring intimate interviews with LGBTQ+ business leaders and grassroots organizers. Together, let's continue to march forward, striving for a future where everyone can live authentically, without fear, and proudly live their truth.Dirigo Collective Website
