Queer Ocala

Before 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ begins, let a few things be made clear:

- Men’s Mental Health Month is November

- Straight ‘pride’ is not a thing. No one has ever been oppressed or killed for being straight.

- Veterans get 2 months. May and November.

So do some research before complaining 🙂

June 5th is looking 👀 pretty busy for Marion County! 🏳️‍🌈 Following this will be an art gallery show benefiting Marion County Pride!

Pride March! Friday, June 5th at 3pm, meet at the Ocala downtown square. Bring your friends, your signs & flags, and canned food to donate if you’re able. Remember to mark your calendar and share. Let’s show up and have our voices heard and our demands known!
EVERY VOICE COUNTS!

As the United States government continues attacking anyone and anything to do with LGBTQ+, let’s show them whatever they do, WE WILL NOT BE GOING BACK! While Stonewall was pivotal in gaining ground for Q***r liberation, we must continue to show that we ALL exist in the face of being erased. Let us raise our flags together, and show we are still LOUD, we are still PROUD, and WE WILL RESIST ALWAYS!!!
