(Examples: lesbian, trans person of color, Latinx queer woman, radical faery, butch, etc.)
This is what a community looks like
[Artist Statement] Tell us more about your photo by sharing a brief artist statement OR answering this prompt: "This is what being ______ means to me..." (Max. 100 words)
This is what being queer means to me. It means having a community of fellow queer people, coming together to find friendship in difficult times. I’ve always found like I’ve been on the outside, however when finding a community it feels like I am seen.
[Visual Description] Describe your photo so we can provide alt-text. Example: "Two women holding hands and smiling as they walk in a pride parade, surrounded by rainbow flags."
A transgender man and lesbian woman hugging at a party.
