The community and family we’ve built on campus is imperative to the health and safety of our students.

Often the American Q***r Movement is a whitewashed movement, but it was started by Black, Trans womxn and on stolen land.
First Nation and Indigenous folx have long been marginalized, assimilated, and invaded by white colonizers.

Still, the Indigenous and First Nations of the world have a long history celebrating, connecting, and respecting the spirit (purple) and nature (green) tenants of PRIDE and q***r culture. They also have a beautiful history of recognizing two-spirit individuals and understanding that the heterosexual cis-gender default we are raised in is both a construct and toxic.

So today let’s celebrate our Indigenous and First Nations community members and honor their history and the unique challenges they face today.

Remember Pride’s history is still pertinent today.

Tomorrow is the start of Pride Month. It is important that our community remembers our history.

Our history is black, is trans, and is violent.

Be sure to check our page throughout June for more history, celebrations, and recognitions of who we are, where we came from, and where we need to go.
