L.A. Educators and Schools Continue Struggle for LGBTQ+ Justice

By |June 11th, 2024|

Last summer, right-wing extremists made headlines in Southern California for months of organized anti-LGBTQ+ attacks on school districts. While most school districts in Los Angeles have refused to concede to demands – extremists have called for the removal of LGBTQ+ teachers, inclusive curriculum, and Pride flags – a concerted campaign to remove protections for LGBTQ+ students, transgender students in particular, has continued in nearby districts. Parents and staff at Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) and Glendale Unified School District (GUSD) who successfully fended off the attacks last year are working with neighboring districts to recognize and adequately respond to anti-LGBTQ+ threats and policies.

I Attended Dyke Day L.A. and Found a Celebration of Identity

By |June 11th, 2024|

This PRIDE month, I headed to Dyke Day on Saturday for the first time, and it was spectacular! Hordes of LGBTQ+ folx and allies swarmed Sycamore Grove Park in Los Feliz for an afternoon focused on community, identity, and solidarity. There were informational booths, picnic blankets, and food trucks galore, with no shortage of activities to keep participants occupied. People brought their kids and dogs, which made for an even more festive atmosphere. There was a main stage for performers, plenty of merch tents, a few kink events, a quiet tent, and a kid's tent among others.
