Being Seen and Being Green
Happy National Coming Out Day! Today the Green Party of the United States stands together to celebrate the dazzling diversity of our LGBTQIA+ community, and demand a world where we are free to be our authentic selves.
From our inception, the Green Party of the United States has embedded LGBTQIA+ rights in our platform, recognizing the urgency of addressing the profound challenges faced by these communities. We understand that authenticity and conviction are integral to the LGBTQIA+ experience—qualities that resonate with our party's commitment to genuine, principled advocacy.
It's no wonder that many in the LGBTQIA+ community are turning away from the politics of the two corporate parties and finding a home in the Green Party.
“Queer people don't grow up as ourselves, we grow up playing a version of ourselves that sacrifices authenticity to minimize humiliation and prejudice. The massive task of our adult lives is to unpack which parts of ourselves are truly us and which parts we've created to protect us."
~Alexander Leon, LGBTQIA+ Activist
Whether you're out and proud, a supportive ally, or navigating your own journey, the Green Party of the United States and the Lavender Caucus stand together, fighting for you.
Our commitment to the liberation of all people, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or sex, sets us apart. 🌈 No other national political party aligns with the Green Party's unwavering dedication to liberation, justice, and equality.
Your ongoing support empowers us to continue the fight for a world that embraces authenticity, justice, and sustainability. Together, let's build a future where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
In solidarity,
Daniel Bumbarger
National Lavender Green Caucus Co-Chair
