salam, the prophet Aretha Franklin on Pride says: "Now it ain't easy but I don't need no help, I’ve got a strong will to survive I’ve got a deeper love: pride (is on my side)". if there is anything to look forward to it is the audacity of Pride in an era of political turmoil. to return to it’s roots as a protest, a resistance, we must not forget how political pride is & must remain. i fear for the militarization of LGBTQ spaces, i fear the anti-black & racist violence that will bubble when queers gather, i fear the trans/gnc erasure & discrimination that will take place at bars & clubs. still, pride is a deeper love, a radical love— when weaponized correctly serves as a beacon for our community to be audacious, be unapologetic, & most of all, possible.
