Pride not Prejudice!

𓆉

still from DIVA TV video "Pride '69 to '89"

Dear friends and family,

It's June and it's Pride Month! We can't wait to celebrate. Watch our DIVA TV video "Pride '69 to '89" to see the Pride parades from the past!

At Aubin, we have exciting updates to kick off the month: Meanwhile is having its "Queer Premiere" at Frameline in San Francisco, Paint Me a Road Out of Here will premiere at DC/DOX this Friday weekend, and Love to the Max is coming out soon on The New Yorker. More info below, and stay tuned for more news :)

As always, thanks for engaging with our newsletter. As we march and parade this month, a Marsha P. Johnson quote rings especially true: "No pride for some of us without liberation for all of us." We can't wait to celebrate the solidarity and courage of our LGBTQIA+ community, and we will continue to fight for a world in which everyone can live freely and authentically, without fear or discrimination. Happy Pride!

All our best,

Cat and the Aubin team
