(PITTSBURGH) – SisTers PGH is appalled by today's Supreme Court decision that allows businesses to deny service to LGBTQ+ people. Using free speech as a scapegoat for bigotry is weak, and it is straight out of the fascist handbook.
It is clear the war on LGBTQ+ people is far from over, which means our fight to exist and to thrive isn't over either.
Trans and queer people have always been here and will always be here. That is a fact that cannot be erased by any law.
SisTers PGH is a Black- and Trans-led 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that serves Trans, queer and nonbinary BIPOC (Black Indigenous People of Color) within southwestern Pennsylvania. Learn more at www.sisterspgh.org.
