Black History Month is a time to celebrate the courage, creativity, and profound impact of Black individuals throughout history—and today, we want to honor the incredible contributions of young Black LGBTQ+ individuals who are shaping the future with their voices, talents, and advocacy.

This year, we’re spotlighting their stories in a new video that uplifts the voices of those living at the powerful intersection of Black and LGBTQ+ identities. These young people are artists, advocates, and changemakers, inspiring progress and making a meaningful impact in their communities.
