BIPOC PRIDE* 2023
*celebrating LGBTQIA+ Black, Indigenous, and People of Color
Say it Loud! BIPOC Pride is a truly unique event for our region. 2023 marks the 17th
anniversary of celebrating the strength, resilience, and contributions of LGBTQIA+
Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities in the Capital Region of
Upstate New York. Not only does this event provide a safe and enjoyable space for
LGBTQIA+ BIPOC and our allies, it also serves to link our communities with vital
resources and health screenings. These efforts address the increased risks and
vulnerabilities such as poverty, lack of health insurance, unemployment, and poorer
mental and physical health that LGBTQIA+ BIPOC disproportionately face in comparison
to their white and non-LGBTQIA+ counterparts.
Pride has come to symbolize a moment of respite for our community members. Events
like Say It Loud! BIPOC Pride are crucial to correcting health disparities and helping our
community create safer spaces to combat isolation and have access to resources and
services they would otherwise not receive.
Your contribution allows us to create an empowering event where our communities can
reimagine what is possible, work in solidarity, and “Say it Loud!”....
As In Our Own Voices, Inc. enters into our 25th year of serving and strengthening
LGBTQIA+ BIPOC communities, we look forward to having you on our side.
