Every June, we celebrate Pride month, to mark the anniversary of the 1969 Stonewall Riots. Pride month is a month where we take the opportunity to remember how far we have come, and the work still needed, to achieve equal rights for the LGBTQ+ community around the world. 🌈 During June, we see social media awash with rainbows, from company logos to merchandise being sold in stores, and whilst signalling your support for Pride and the LGBTQ+ community is important, its also important to back that work up with other actions that provide education or support the work being done by individuals, communities and companies to make a real change in the world we live in today. ⭐ So what can you do to celebrate Pride month in your business? Here’s 5 top ideas from Pod:

This month, we stand proud and united to commemorate Pride Month, a celebration of love, diversity, acceptance, and self-expression. This is not just a time to acknowledge the struggles and victories of the LGBTQ+ community but also to reflect on the importance of creating a more inclusive and empathetic society. As we celebrate Pride, let us also remember the importance of allyship. Being an ally means supporting and standing up for the rights of those who identify as LGBTQ+. It means creating safe spaces at work and in our communities where everyone can be their authentic selves. It requires constant learning, understanding, and committing to equality and justice. This Pride month—and all year round—let's strive to spread love, promote inclusivity, and uplift each other. Because when one of us succeeds, we all do. How are you celebrating Pride month and promoting inclusivity in your community? #PrideMonth #Inclusivity #Allyship

🌈 Pride Month! 🌈 As we enter week #2 of Pride Month, I wanted to share some ways we can show our support and celebrate! 1. Educate Yourself and Others: Understanding the history and significance of Pride is crucial. Take time to learn about key milestones in the LGBTQ+ rights movement, such as the Stonewall Riots of 1969, and educate others to foster a more inclusive society. 2. Create Inclusive Spaces: Whether at work or in your community, strive to create environments where everyone feels safe and respected. Implement policies that support diversity and inclusion and ensure that LGBTQ+ voices are heard and valued. 3. Attend Pride Events: Many cities host parades, workshops, and other events during Pride Month. Participating in these events is a great way to show solidarity and celebrate the diversity within the LGBTQ+ community. 4. Share Your Support: Use social media platforms to show your support for Pride Month. Share educational resources, inspirational stories, and messages of solidarity to spread awareness and encourage others to do the same. Happy Pride Month! 🏳️🌈

3 things that I implore you to remember this Pride season. 1. Allyship is wonderful, but it is something earned, not just claimed. If you say that you are an ally, you must back that up with more than words. It must be backed up with actions. 2. Remember that being out is a privilege. To all who are unable to be out for whatever reason, or who choose to remain private about your situations, you are still valid and you still deserve to have pride. This elder-queer loves and supports you. <3 3. Please remember that while it is wonderful and AMAZING to support small and independent queer artists during Pride season and beyond, not everyone has the financial stability and privilege to do so, and purchasing a small trinket from a big box store may be cheaper, easier, and more accessible for some folx and that is OK. Don't shame people for it, because you don't know their experience or what they are going through. Also, those public corporate displays? They often matter to people who cannot be out for their own reasons. So absolutely celebrate independently, responsibly, etc. But have patience and grace for all. Happy Pride, everyone!

It’s for our future and our safety.

🌈 Happy Pride Month! 🌈 As we celebrate Pride Month, it's essential to recognize the importance of diversity in the workplace. Every voice, every perspective, and every story enriches our collective experience, driving innovation and fostering a more inclusive environment. Embracing diversity isn't just a corporate value—it's a fundamental principle that benefits us all. This month, let's commit to being more empathetic and understanding. Many individuals in the LGBTQ+ community face personal mistreatment and discriminatory legislation that threatens their basic human rights. We can all play a role in advocating for change and creating a world where everyone feels valued and respected. To those who may have ill feelings towards the LGBTQ+ community, I encourage you to take a moment to listen to their stories and experiences. Empathy is the first step towards unity and progress. Together, let's build a workplace and a world that celebrates diversity, champions equality, and stands against hate. Happy Pride! 🏳️🌈💼 #pridemonth #DiversityAndInclusion #EqualityForAll #EmpathyInAction
