Everyone knows that June is #PRIDE month. In 2019, we know this because it is 30 days every year where corporations, police, & other organizations that enact violence on queer/trans* people pretend to care. It's the time of year when our streets are painted with rainbows on sidewalks and our stores are plastered with rainbows on items that no one ever actually wants. It's when straight people weasr rainbows and call themselves "allies" without actually doing anything significant to benefit (financially or otherwise) the well-beings and livelihoods of LGBTQ+ identified people. On this episode, we're discussing the giant corporate mess that is #PRIDE. We're dissecting and disseminating the ways in which corporations and government agencies use "pinkwashing" to put up a facade of solidarity through multi-million dollar marketing campaigns. We're talking about the NYPD's faux "apology," the hypocritically violent nature of Israel's proclamation of queer-friendliness, and the importance of community building for the survivance of queer/trans* people of color (QTPOC).
