Though Pride Month is meant to be a celebratory month, we would be remiss if we didn't hold space for the constant threats to BIPOC queer lives in this country and in our sport. With that said, awareness is not enough–we need action! Here's a list of some actionable items you can take: 📌 Ask questions, and do your own research. 📌 Recognize your privilege and use it for good. 📌 Take your online activism into real-life scenarios. 📌 Speak up for the underrepresented. 📌 Follow the lead of your LGBTQIA+ peers and organizations. We also encourage you to take time to facilitate meaningful conversations about making the running industry and run communities safer and more inclusive for BIPOC queer runners. And, check out this RIDC blog post that highlights historic LGBTQIA+ figures. ➡️ https://loom.ly/pw1fX4I #PrideMonth #Running4Diversity

We can't help but see comments on social media protesting the need for Pride month, or the focus it gets throughout June. Here are just a few statistics that cannot be ignored: 😓 64% of LGBT+ people have experienced violence or abuse 🏳️🌈 88% of transgender people do not report hate crimes they experience 👥 35% of LGBT employees have hidden their sexuality or identity at work for fear of discrimination 😰 41% of employees who identify as transgender, non-binary or another gender have experienced bullying, discrimination or harassment at work (from our own research) Acknowledging this data isn't about detracting from any of the other issues your organisation is facing, it's about creating change where change is needed. In this webinar Kenya Peters and Vicki Baars sat down to discuss what pride month Should and Should Not look like. Let us know your thoughts https://lnkd.in/ecXDqUeA

As we celebrate #PrideMonth, it's essential to remember that being an ally doesn't end when June does. True allyship means standing with the LGBTQIA+ community year-round, advocating for equality, and fostering inclusive environments where everyone feels valued and respected. Here are a few ways to practice allyship all year long: +Listen and Learn: Hear the stories and experiences of LGBTQIA+ individuals. Understanding their perspectives can help us become better allies. +Speak Up: Challenge discriminatory remarks or actions, whether in the workplace or elsewhere. Silence can be interpreted as acceptance. +Support LGBTQIA+ Organizations: Volunteer your time or donate to causes that advocate for LGBTQIA+ rights and well-being. +Create Inclusive Spaces: Whether at work, home, or in social settings, strive to create environments where everyone feels safe and included. Let's make allyship more than just a moment—let's make it a movement! #Allyship #Pride2024 #EqualityForAll #InclusionMatters #LGBTQ #LGBT #LGBTQIA2+
We ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤎🤍 our Allies! Here are just a few ways to support the LGBTQIA2+ community, not just during Pride Month, but all year long 🏳️🌈
