"HAPPY PRIDE MONTH TO EVERYONE!"
________♡________

"Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself."
________♡________________♡________

“More people need to find the inspiration, the courage, to just speak up because when the riot gets too loud,
no matter how hard whoever tries, it's not possible to calm it. When the fire's too big, you can't have enough water to put it down.”
________♡________________♡________

“People cling to these firm ideas [about gender] because it makes people feel safe. But if we could just celebrate
all the wonderful complexities of people, the world would be such a better place.”

My Thoughts:
Have you observed LGBTQ+ Pride Month (or a similar celebration)? If so, what is most meaningful about it to you?
No I have not. But in Montreal, we observe Pride Month usually in August and Montreal usually does big festivities for it.

Have you shared your identity or allyship through your art?
Yes I have , specifically for this piece of art. I consider myself an ally for the LGBTQ+ community.
~Love is love!~

Who are some of your favorite LGBTQ+ artists, past and present?
My past favorites are: Wham- George Michael, Queen -Freddy Mercury, David Bowie and
Present ones are: Elton John, RuPaul, Adam Lambert, Ricky Martin, Luke Evans, Miley Cyrus, Boy George., Wanda Sykes and Ellen DeGeneres.
