Community Spotlight: Pride Month<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Your stories have power. They bring ideas to life and can shape how others see the world, and here at Hearts, we use stories to build community.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is one of many posts in our Community Spotlight Series, where we feature Hearts who identify with a group and have important conversations about how we can support one another.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Throughout the series, we will work closely with these individuals to create an experience where they can share their culture with fellow Hearts. We\u2019ll hear directly from them about their lives, the safe spaces they\u2019ve created to live their truth, and how we can be better allies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And then we listen.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Because more than ever, stories that celebrate our differences need to be heard.<\/span><\/p>\n

Defining self in the face of adversity<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In 1867, German lawyer \u200b\u200bKarl Heinrich Ulrichs became the first person to publicly declare himself gay and campaign for freedom. In shocking contrast, in recent news, the Ugandan president just enacted an anti-gay law that\u2019s being called \u201cthe harshest in the world.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

This Pride, let\u2019s acknowledge the ongoing struggles of the LGBTQIA2S+ community. Let\u2019s honor the strength of individuals and communities as they continue to forge the path toward equality and human rights.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what we\u2019re doing to recognize Pride Month at Hearts & Science:<\/span><\/p>\n
