NOW MORE THAN EVER

Joel Barrett

I give a f_ck because someone gave a fuck about me. As a cis gay White man, the least I can do is give a fuck for my Black queer family. I would not be where I am today if it weren’t for the Black queer pioneers of the LGBTQ+ movement. If we don’t give a f_ck about our community, we will be easily erased, denied, and forgotten. Giving a fuck means that I care enough about my community and my world to speak up and stand up for my Black queer family.
