Lawton’s Pride Prom

09/15/2025

As we approach fall when I would begin planning, I am torn about the future of Pride Prom. These last 3 years were so beautiful and yet so much stress and work. This year I just don't think I have the time or energy or resources to make it work. I'd like to say I could push through, but 60 hours a week as a single parent with no vehicle completely takes up my time.

It was a beautiful dream and I'm so glad I got to see it. Thank you to all the wonderful people who poured into this event and had faith in what we were doing. If there's anyone still interested in carrying the torch, I'd be happy to hand over the social media and email and any contacts I have.

I want to be clear that I am still fighting the good fight where I can. I'm still loud and proud. But I think life is forcing me in another direction.

I love every single one of you.
Please keep each other close.

We love you!!! And we can't wait to celebrate you!
Also, Pride was a protest started by trans women of color that galvanized the gay community to fight back against a system intent on eradicating them.
So, Celebrating our Existence, is an Act of Resistance. ✊🏴‍☠️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
