Celebrating Thanksgiving with Pride and Unity

Thanksgiving: A Time for Reflection, Gratitude, and Community

Thanksgiving is a cherished holiday, bringing families and friends together to share gratitude and good food. However, it’s also an opportunity to highlight the strength and resilience of diverse communities, including the LGBTQ+ population in New York.

As we gather around tables, let us also recognize the battles fought for equality and justice. This Thanksgiving, consider donating to local LGBTQ+ shelters or participating in community events that support marginalized groups.

In NYC, Thanksgiving-themed LGBTQ+ events are fostering safe spaces to celebrate and bond. Groups like the Ali Forney Center provide meals and care for homeless LGBTQ+ youth, reminding us of the power of giving back.

Let’s make this holiday about inclusivity and support for all, ensuring no one is left behind at the table of gratitude.
