Funds raised through this event support Freire for City Council, a 100% grassroots campaign powered by people ready to see authentic representation in local government.
“Powered by people ready to see authentic representation in the Heights, our event is an ode to the historic efforts made by the fierce LGBTQIA+ community who have fought to be seen and heard. The LGBTQIA+ community is near and dear to me- I’m a proud ally and friend to amazing humans who’ve brightened my life with love, joy, and wisdom. We must continue to support our friends and family members by being a vocal advocate and educating ourselves on the history of the gay liberation movement. This includes acknowledging the erasure of Black, Brown, Indigenous, two-spirit, and trans communities who to this day face systemic violence and discrimination. Let’s promote a just and equitable city where ALL residents can thrive,” says Freire.
