How To Celebrate #PrideToronto From Home

While Pride Toronto might not be happening in the way many of us might have imagined, I like to think that #PrideMonth in 2020 is an opportunity for the world to come together more than ever. To celebrate the beauty of the LGBTQ+ community, the inclusionary messaging that Pride represents, and to celebrate what it means to be proud.

That’s why today I am announcing that I am partnering with OLG to bring you BTS with some of the best drag queens I know, support the LGBTQ+ community and helping you to gain access to some of the most anticipated virtual Pride events happening all month long!

Supporting Queer Designers and Brands during Pride Month

It’s June, It’s Pride Month and it’s time to share some ways you can support queer designers and brands that are here for the LGBTQ+ community not only during the month of June, but all year long. One of my absolutely favourite people on this planet, and designer extraordinaire, decided to use his brand to give back this month and the world needs to know about it.

Billie Eilish x Takashi Murakami vibes

Could the launch of a Billie Eilish collab have come at a better time? From Pride Month to the warmer weather, I am so excited to share with you all the reasons why you’ll be seeing some more of Billie Eilish both here on the blog and via my social media accounts. Because this rule breaker and trend setter has given us all the opportunity to express ourselves yet again.

PROUD ALLIES FOR ALL

With #PrideMonth in full force, I am going to be sharing a lot of #Pride content with you all over the next month. Both because I am proud of who I am as a gay man, but also to be a voice for my community and those communities often muted in the world for their differences.

I feel, now more than ever, it is important to remember that the first pride was a riot. That our community has taken a long time to get to where we are. And it is with partners and allies that we will continue to thrive and share our ability to be Proud. Rainbow washing happens a lot at this time of year – the idea of throwing a rainbow on a product to make a quick buck while not actually being an ally at all. So all I can say right now is educate yourself on the brand before giving them your dollars. Or come to trusted members of the LGTBQ+ and ask us. So, without further fuss, let’s talk about a brand that is and has always supported us and our ability to express who we are.
