"This is precisely the time when artists go to work. There is no time for despair, no place for self-pity, no need for silence, no room for fear. We speak, we write, we do language. That is how civilizations heal." - Toni Morrison
John, who are we to argue with the great Toni Morrison? If you need to take a moment this week, we understand. But when you’re ready, we invite you to join us in this fight.
Earlier this year, It Gets Better released the first edition of Queerbook, a stunning collection of essays, illustrations, photographs, and poetry capturing the powerful voices of LGBTQ+ youth today. Our first run sold out—but we’ve uncovered TWENTY-FIVE MORE COPIES.
Only 25 copies left! Donate $50 or more by November 20th, and we’ll send you one of these limited-edition treasures. This is your final chance to own a piece of art that celebrates and amplifies queer youth voices.
In a time when political leaders are aiming to silence the voices of LGBTQ+ youth, your donation is a statement of defiance and hope. Help us stand strong for queer kids and guide the leaders of tomorrow. Claim your own copy of Queerbook, and make a lasting impact.
