LGBTQ Film Hall of Fame

Pride Blooms

In this episode of the Parent Advocate podcast, Lizette and I play catch up and talk all things Pride, the recent SCOTUS decision impacting trans girls in sports and the GLSEN survey which shows 2 in 3 school students in the US feel unsafe due to their LGBTQ+ identity. In Allies & Assholes we celebrate NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani for allocating $15M for trans healthcare in the city, and drag the British Royal Family for honoring the Harry Potter transphobe on the last day of Pride.

Backwards Never, Forward Ever.
