Happy pride month, folks! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

To start of this month of celebration and honouring our history as a 2SLGBTQ+ community, we are sharing @moyohcs.ca’s #Pride365 post from May, which celebrates the intersectionality of Pride and focused specifically on the #ACPI (Asian-Canadian & Pacific Islander) community.

As we come to the end of #ACPIHeritageMonth (or #AAPIHeritageMonth, as it’s more commonly known), we are focusing this month’s #Pride365 post on LGBTQ+ folks within the Asian community. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
•
As highlighted at our recent IDAHOT celebration, Asian folks within Canada have been facing significant discrimination during the pandemic, which has been highlighted more in the past few months due to horrible hate crimes that have taken place. This month’s blog post focuses on some of the important figures and organizations standing up for and supporting diverse folks in the ACPI community, from sex workers to those living with HIV, ACPI folks who are working against anti-Black racism, and a variety of incredible artists and activists whose work highlights their intersecting queer and ACPI identities. 🌈

Click the link in our bio to check out this submission and remember, just like with 2SLGBTQ+ communities and Pride, ACPI folks should be supported all year round, not just during one month of the year. 💖

Happy early #pansexualvisibilityday! As Pan Visibility Day is May 24th and our staff will be taking a break that day, we wanted to take this opportunity to send all of our #pansexual community members an early celebratory message! Remember that monosexual identities are not the only ones out there and our pan community members are valid in their identities no matter who they are dating or loving. 💖💛💙
