Today is the 55th anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising, a pivotal moment in LGBTQ history. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

We are grateful for those that resisted police attacks on June 28, 1969 led by queer and trans people of color.

Today, we continue the fight to advance LGBTQ rights.

“It’s very important for anyone in my community to be comfortable with their physician … My doctor is not gay, but he’s understanding of John’s and my relationship. He understands that we’re a team … that we are making this decision as a family.”

🌈We love to hear about LGBTQ+ folks and allies making healthcare more inclusive! James worked on the UK's national radiation therapy informed consent forms to adjust heteronormative and cisnormative language, making them more LGBTQI+ inclusive 👏
