2020-06-19Bathroom Black Lives Matter LGBTQ+ Amazon Announcement
In this Announcement posted above the urinal in the Amazon Warehouse bathroom, the link between Black Lives Matter, the LGBTQ+ movement, and Amazon is made explicit. Clearly Amazon is actively choosing to endorse the Black Lives Matter movement in light of the fact that protesters were risking people's lives, according to the narrative, because many were not social-distancing during their protests, thus putting the public i.e. the elderly at risk. So this stance is noteworthy. -

2020-05-30Wisconsin's LGBTQ communities recognize, celebrate Pride Month despite COVID-19 limitations
With the Covid-19 outbreak, the LGBTQ community is still finding ways to celebrate Pride Month. In Wisconsin, the gay night club "This Is It," has been live steaming drag shows and other organizations are exploring ways to still celebrate Pride despite the impact of Covid-19.

2020-05-23What Prides across Utah are looking like now
The Utah Pride Festival has been moved to September of this year. However, they will be participating in a Global Pride event later in June. Different regions in Utah have made similar adjustments for their pride celebrations. I wonder if pride events rescheduled for later in the year will end up being cancelled due to a second wave of COVID-19. The uncertainty is scary, but the sense of community that is being fostered by Pride events helps alleviate some of the stress of feeling uncertain or disconnected. #ASU #HST580 -
