In honor of Juneteenth this week, we’d like to share these helpful resources from The Trevor Project to help further conversations about race and identity. Learn more from the “Black & LGBTQ+: Approaching Intersectional Conversations” guide below! #pride #lgbtq #intersectionality
This Juneteenth, we recognize that Black and BIPOC LGBTQ+ young people carry an unfair burden of having to explain their identities. These difficult conversations often force Black queer and trans youth to have hard discussions on race, queer identities, or the intersection of both. We know that intersectional conversations can take a variety of forms. Some are engaging white friends for the first time about how being BIPOC impacts their experience in LGBTQ+ spaces, while others are opening up about the nuances of their queer experiences in BIPOC communities. For folks who hold multiple marginalized identities, it can sometimes feel overwhelming to explore the layers of these conversations with others — especially those whose lived experiences are different. We created this guide “Black & LGBTQ+: Approaching Intersectional Conversations” as a resource for folks looking to expand their conversations and have meaningful dialogues about race and identity.
