Read Full Theme Statement
Our existence is not up for debate. LGBTQ+ people have always been and always will be part of the history of the United States, shaping its culture, defending its freedoms, building its movements, and strengthening its democracy.
We EXIST Loudly. We EXIST Proudly. WE EXIST.
Our resistance is called upon. We claim our right as humans and Americans, to live freely and openly, in the face of tyranny and stand against anything that seeks to shrink our freedom or deny our dignity.
We RESIST Injustice. We RESIST Erasure. WE RESIST.
Our audacity is our collective strength. Against the forces that try to diminish us, we must remain bold, courageous, visible and heard, in a world that questions our humanity and challenges our rights. Together, let’s have the audacity to live, thrive, be joyful and Proud!
EXIST. RESIST. Have the Audacity!
