This is such a fascinating read for indie publishing aficionados 👇

Did you know that July is #DisabilityPrideMonth?

It started in Boston, USA in 1990 as a day the same year that the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed.

The first celebration of Disability Pride Month was in 2015, marking 25th anniversary of the ADA being signed.

We love to see it 🙌

[Fossil Free Pride @FossilFreePride]

It's been a busy time at FFP!

As well as the British LGBT Awards protest, we've also had FIVE PRIDES sign the Fossil Free Pride Pledge in just one week 🤯

Middlesex, Cornwall, Essex, Margate and Worcestershire Prides all committed to no fossil fuel companies or banks at Pride!

[Ram Eye Press @RamEyePress]

The whole gang is here!

I'm not saying the Ram will spare your soul if you own all 5... but he might be more merciful 🐏

“There aren’t two groups - you and us. There’s our LGBTQ+ family, and as far as I’m concerned, in the interests of all our mental health, and to advance trans inclusion, we must indeed act as one.”

This is well worth a read! 👇🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
