June is #Pridemonth. This is the most colorful month of the year since this is the month where LGBTQ+ pride is celebrated. 🌈 Over the past 40-plus years, the rainbow Pride flag has become a symbol synonymous with the LGBTQ+ community and its fight for equal rights and acceptance across the globe. It's also a celebration of the beauty and diversity of the experience, flown at Pride events throughout June. Since Gilbert Baker first created the original rainbow Pride flag back in 1978, designers and activists of all genders, identities, and sexual orientations have made different iterations to reflect unique communities. To help familiarize yourself, with the different flags, we have put together a list of some of the LGBTQ+ flags, where they came from and what they represent. The link is in the comment section 👇 #Pride2024 #PrideMonth #LGBTQ

🌟 Why Isn’t there a 'Straight Pride?' 🌟 Pride Month is a time to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, honouring their struggles and achievements in the fight for equality. The reason there isn’t a 'straight pride' is because ‘straight’ people haven’t faced the systemic discrimination, marginalization, and violence that LGBTQ+ individuals have historically endured and often continue to face. Pride isn’t about trying elevate one group above another, or thrusting views on others, it’s about recognizing and celebrating the resilience and contributions of those who have been historically oppressed. By supporting LGBTQ+ Pride, we acknowledge the ongoing journey toward true equality and justice for all. 🏳️🌈 By the way, you don’t have to ‘agree with it’ to be a nice human and create a nice workplace! #LGBTQ #Pride #Equality #Inclusion #Diversity #Understanding #Solidarity #Respect #History #HumanRights #Support #LoveIsLove #PrideMonth

Rainbow Washing' refers to companies using #pride symbols and aesthetics without genuinely supporting LGBTQ+ rights and dignity. The LGBTQ+ community faces workplace challenges like discrimination and lack of representation. Companies must actively create inclusive environments beyond Pride Month, showing a constant commitment to equality and inclusion.🌈🌈 Instead of falling into Rainbow Washing, we should focus on concrete actions promoting diversity and inclusion. This means implementing non-discrimination policies, training and awareness programs, and ensuring active LGBTQ+ representation at all levels, both internally and externally. Pride is not confined to a month but requires ongoing commitment.🌈🌈 We love being the ones who accompany you in boosting your brand. #womenownedmedia #nondiscrimantion #minorities

🌈 Celebrating Pride Month June is Pride Month—a time to honor the journey towards equity and acknowledge the challenges still faced by the LGBTQ+ community. Why Pride Matters: Historical Significance: Commemorates the Stonewall Uprising of 1969, a pivotal moment in LGBTQ+ rights. Progress and Achievements: Marriage equity, increased visibility, and expanded legal protections. Ongoing Challenges: Discrimination, violence, and legal persecution persist worldwide. How We Can Contribute: Educate: Learn and share the history and current issues of the LGBTQ+ community. Advocate: Support policies and initiatives that promote equity. Inclusivity: Foster accepting and respectful environments in all spaces. Pride is not just a celebration, but a call to action. Let’s honor the courage of those who fought for rights and commit to building a future where everyone can live with dignity and equity. 🌟 #PrideMonth #Equity #LGBTQ #HumanRights #Inclusion

I help elevate individual, team, and organizational performance. As a past ICF-LA President, trusted C-Suite advisor, & facilitator with CMO & GM experience, I’ve even helped Tony Robbins develop his products.
As we continue through June, our feeds are filled with rainbow logos and "Love Is Love" messages. But many in the LGBTQ+ community are questioning the authenticity of this support. "Rainbow capitalism" and "pinkwashing" often overshadow genuine efforts for equality. The real question is: How can brands authentically support LGBTQ+ communities? Consumers today want actions, not just symbols. So, if you're a well-meaning brand, consider these steps: 🌈 Support queer and trans creators. 🌈Establish forward-thinking policies for LGBTQ+ employees. 🌈Integrate LGBTQ+ advocacy with other social justice efforts. 🌈Invest in year-round contributions to LGBTQ+ causes. Retire the rainbow logo and let your actions represent your true allyship through consistent, meaningful actions. ✨ With Peter Gandolfo, MBA, Executive Coach (PCC) #PrideMonth #LGBTQSupport #AuthenticAllyship #ExecutiveCoach #InclusionMatters

What is “Rainbow Washing?” Rainbow washing, defined as using rainbow colors to show support for LGBTQ equality without meaningful advocacy, is a sneaky marketing tactic. Companies often splash rainbows and LGBTQ imagery in June but forget about it later. This practice, termed "optical allyship," is wrong and unethical, especially when companies harm the LGBTQ community. How to Avoid Rainbow Washing Your Brand: 1. Stay consistent in advocacy. 2. Elevate LGBTQ+ voices. 3. Embrace workplace diversity. 4. Donate to LGBTQ+ advocacy groups. 5. Speak out against injustice. Move forward by being a genuine ally year-round, not just during Pride month. Let's strive for authentic support and allyship beyond the rainbow-colored marketing gimmicks. #HappyPride!

Today, Ari Shaw, Ph.D. represented The Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law on a panel at the Milken Institute Global Conferenece on The Role of Companies for LGBTQ+ Rights. We are beyond grateful to Briland Graves, Brian Patrick Fano Carandang, and Richard Ditizio for making this important conversation come to life. “In the United States alone, nearly 14 million adults identify as LGBTQ+. The LGBTQ+ community currently wields $1 trillion in spending power—a metric that is only expected to grow. As the community becomes increasingly represented in employee and consumer bases alike, what role should corporations play in LGBTQ+ rights? How does it inform how and when companies make business decisions?” You can watch the whole panel here: https://lnkd.in/gBnrUVS6 #MIGLOBAL
