Six years ago today, we lost a giant. But giants leave footprints.

John Lewis crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge at 25 years old, knowing what waited on the other side. He spent the next six decades teaching us that love is an action, that democracy is a practice, and that some trouble is holy.

“Good trouble, necessary trouble.” 🕊️

We honor the man whose district we call home — who showed us that liberation is not given, it is demanded. Rooted in struggle. Rising in liberation. That’s his legacy, and it’s our inheritance.

Rest in power, Congressman. We’re still marching.

The Supreme Court ruled against trans youth. It cannot rule on their worth.

On June 30, the Court upheld state bans on transgender girls in school sports — leaving these laws standing in 29 states, Georgia included.

To every trans young person: you are not a debate. You belong here, exactly as you are. 🔥

A court can decide a roster. We decide our community — and we’ve got you.

Before it was a parade, it was a riot. 🔥

In 1969, it was Black and Brown q***r and trans folks — Marsha, Sylvia, and so many unnamed — who refused to be erased at Stonewall. Their resistance built the ground we stand on.

Today, that same ground is shaking. Our BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities are facing rollbacks, erasure, and renewed attacks on our right to simply exist. The struggle didn’t end in ’69 — it evolved.

But so did we. 🖤💛

We honor the past by building a future where liberation isn’t selective. Equality for ALL of us — every shade, every identity, every body — not just the ones the world finds easy to accept.

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, chosen fathers, mentors, and father figures in our community. Today, we celebrate the love, strength, guidance, and sacrifice you bring to the lives of those you care for.

Thank you for showing up, leading with compassion, and helping build stronger families and communities.

Happy Father's Day from Atlanta Black Pride! 🖤🏳️‍🌈👑

Freedom delayed — but never surrendered. 🔥 On June 19, 1865, the last enslaved Black Americans in Galveston finally learned they were free. Today we honor Juneteenth not as a finish line, but as a living promise: liberation belongs to all of us, including our Black LGBTQ+ family.

Ten years. Forty-nine names. One promise: we will never forget.

In the early hours of June 12, 2016, our community lost 49 of our own at Pulse nightclub in Orlando — most of them Black and Brown, most of them young, all of them dancing freely on Latin Night. They went to a place that was meant to be sanctuary. A decade later, we hold their memory close.

Pulse was more than a club. It was home — a place where our people could be fully, unapologetically themselves. That truth, that our joy is sacred and our spaces are worth protecting, lives on in every one of us.

We honor the 49 not only with grief, but with resolve. We carry their names forward in the fight for a world where our community can gather without fear.

Say their names. Hold them in the light. Dance for those who can't. 💛

In loving memory of the 49.
