Yes, this probably isn’t the way you intended to spend your June. With most Pride festivities around the world cancelled—or moved online—due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we’re about as far away from the parades, concerts and patio parties as you can get. Hell, it would be super easy to call the whole thing off, slump onto the couch and just dig into the Ben & Jerry’s waiting for you in your freezer… but don’t do it! (Well, still have the ice cream, actually.) There are other ways to celebrate your Pride this season, whether it’s by donating to community organizations and businesses, reaching out to queer friends and allies, or watching the surplus of LGBTQ content available on various platforms. Classics films! Hot new shows! Now’s your chance to throw your support behind queer content creators and celebrate our stories. Here are just a few recommendations if you want a Pride pick-me-up! |
