Best Friends Animal Society Pride Program 2024
“Standing in Pride — A Celebration of LGBTQIA+ Community & Power”
Lex is facilitating their workshop, “Standing in Pride — A Celebration of LGBTQIA+ Community & Power” for Best Friends Animal Society’s Pride event on 6/26/2024!
For this year’s Annual Pride Celebration, Best Friends is excited to welcome LGBTQ+ Educator and Consultant Lex Horwitz (he/they) as our featured guest speaker. The presentation will include a look at the LGBTQIA+ community and our connections to animals — including highlighting LGBTQIA+ icons and their cats — and a break down of gender with a look at cisnormativity and cissexism and how we can disrupt these systems of oppression to better show up for and support non-binary, trans and gender diverse people. The session will conclude with identifying and implementing advocacy tools and practices to cultivate affirming spaces where everyone’s entire being is celebrated.
This is a private event.
