PFLAG has amazing resources-

Pronouns can be tricky! Maybe it’s your first time using they/them to refer to a single person, or maybe a loved one is transitioning and wants to use a pronoun that affirms their gender identity—but is new to you. Whatever the case may be, there are lots of ways to learn, honor, and use someone’s pronouns. Here are a few to get your started:

• Try a role play with someone (who is NOT your LGBTQ+ loved one) to help you understand what it feels like to be misgendered.
• Write a story about your loved one using their affirmed name and pronouns.
• Make a gender jar and put $1.00 in the jar every time you make a mistake.

What tricks have you used to learn someone else’s pronouns? Let us know in the comments below! 👇

It’s an honor and privilege to have our incoming PFLAG National Board Member, Keturah Johnson, speak at today’s March on Washington: Defend the Vote, an event commemorating the 63rd anniversary of the 1963 March on Washington, where a quarter million Americans once stood for equality and freedom. Today, we carry that work into a new generation.

Right now, more than 600 bills and ballot measures across this country trade on fears about transgender people, but their impacts extend far beyond the greater LGBTQ+ community: they threaten access to education, healthcare, safety, employment, housing, transportation, and financial resources for rural communities, women, people of color, people with disabilities, immigrants, and families of all kinds.

We have been here before. We have lived through these same political stunts.

We are proud to advocate alongside our partners at the NAACP to defend the right to vote, protect equal opportunity, and secure economic dignity. Across gender, sexuality, faith, race, and region, we move as one body and one demand. When we stand together, no statehouse and no silence can outlast us.

This election season, we’re calling on YOU to turn your pride into power by voting this November.

Join us at PFLAG.org/PFLAGvotes—because when we vote, we protect our families. When we educate, we empower our communities. When we organize, we build power. And when we show up together, we shape the future.

RIP-😢

Beloved by q***r communities for decades—most memorably for his role as Frank-n-Furter, the sweet transvestite, from Tr*******al, Transylvania! in The Rocky Horror Picture Show—Tim Curry has been a light in the darkness of everybody's life.

The recipient of an Emmy Award, and nominated for Tony Awards, Olivier Awards, a Grammy, and more, Tim Curry had a prolific career that spanned Broadway, the West End, small-screen and big-screen roles, and albums that had us all “...do the rock.”

Rest in peace, Tim Curry.

Important words for students-

To all trans and gender nonconforming students headed back to school: You deserve to feel safe, seen, and affirmed EVERYWHERE—in classrooms, restrooms, locker rooms, and beyond. 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵
