“One thing bigots who target the LGBTQ+ community love to spout is rhetoric about traditional family values and how only cisgender heteronormativity is compatible with a healthy, happy family. But in North America, the traditions they're talking about are the culture of the colonizer—not the people Indigenous to these lands.”

Writer Amelia Mavis Christnot delivers her perspective on why having a traditional upbringing can encourage LGBTQ+ allyship and not discourage it in this personal piece for The Big Picture. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/indigenous-family-values-lgbtq-allyship

@georgetakei Find it interested that within group they turn on each other with the LGBTQ+ communityheard issues with them and those who are blind and also part of that community. Sad but there you go. They do not talk to each other. Do not know what the blind group call themselves but they feel disconnected from their own community. Go figure.
