Hey everyone of Scratch! Welcome to my newest project, where I welcome any member or non-member of the LGBTQIA+ to join me in celebrating the wonderful month of June, also known as Pride Month. A few years ago my older sister Naomi came out as lesbian. My parents supported her, which she was grateful and extremely happy about. She didn’t care what her friends thought—she was just happy. And that inspired e to make this. All of you inspired me to make this! While my younger sister Lyla, my dad, and my stepmom are all straight, they are allys. Allies? Allys? I’m not sure how to spell it, but they support the LGBTQIA+ society and community. I came out as bisexual last year, though recently I find myself more attracted to males other than females. But this is not about me! My sister Naomi has inspired so much of my life and I wanted to share these words with you. All of you! The world has too many homophobics out there, but we are slowly and surely bringing back the world to respect all of its citizens, no matter who they like. So thank you, everyone of Scratch, for making this website such an amazing and inclusive space for anyone of any gender, ethnicity, and sexuality. You are all a great asset to the world we are living in. ❤️ Yours truly, Liz
This project is dedicated to anyone who’s ever felt they don’t belong—you are not alone ❤️
