Personal Perspectives on PRIDE

AACYF/旧金山/洛杉矶，2025年6月20日 – 由美国社区媒体服务组织（ACoM，前称少数族裔媒体服务EMS）主办的新闻简报会“Personal Perspectives on PRIDE”于6月20日在线举行

In our deeply polarized society, what role does PRIDE play in shaping identity and forging community? Or has LGBTQ become so normalized  – “so over the rainbow” as some declare – it has lost relevance?  What does it mean to be LGBTQ at this juncture, when many in the community are under attack?

Speakers this week will share their stories and perspective on this moment in time. Please join us – with your questions – for a lively panel discussion.

• Aruna Rao, founder and Executive Director of Desi Rainbow

• Richard Rodriguez, award-winning author who came out in his collection of essays ‘Days of Obligation’

• Helen Zia, journalist and activist for Asian American and LGBTQ rights, and  founder of the Vincent Chin Institute
