“As we enter into Pride Month, with this special issue dedicated to both celebrating the LGBTQ+ community and highlighting the barrage of threats against LGBTQ+ people from those on the right, tracking those threats has often seemed overwhelming. The onslaught of anti-LGBTQ+ legislation from state lawmakers across the country has been so fast and furious that we’ve had to update the list of repressive bills multiple times during our production process just to keep up. But those on the right have underestimated the joy, resilience, and tenacity of the LGBTQ+ community. Resistance is nothing new for this community and its allies.”
David Boddiger, Managing Editor
Cover artist Rae Senarighi, creator of the “You Are Loved” campaign emphasizes a message of love, acceptance, and resilience in the cover of the latest issue.
