#BrandPartner “Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” — Maya Angelou. I learned a lot this year about how companies can support the LGBTQIA+ community during pride season. There’s been so much discussion about how pride has become corporatized, another hashtag holiday on a marketing calendar. Gay twitter has torn apart pride campaigns, criticizing them for being lazy, opportunistic, overly centered on the pride flag, or insensitive. While I agree with some of these sentiments, I wonder if call-out culture is dulling the potential progress we can make with culture and brands alike. Brands are platforms, and the decision to use them to affect change or raise money for LGBTQIA+ non-profits is real visibility and impact that we should support. For example, @Listerine and the #CareWithPride initiative have raised over $1 million for LGBTQIA+ non-profits like PFLAG, The Trevor Project, and The Family Equality Council. The missions of these organizations help everyday LGBTQIA+ people throughout the world in real ways. Like helping eager dads adopt kids, building community with the parents of other lesbians, and providing critical counseling for suicidal queer teens. I’m proud to partner with #CareWithPride to shed light on the good work they’re doing for our community, even beyond pride month. Every day is a pride march and the more boots (or heels😉) on the ground the better.
