We had a TIME at the 17th Annual Equality Brunch, and whew… I’m still riding the high.

This was my first year chairing the Brunch, and I wanted it to feel bigger, warmer, louder, more joyful, more intentional from the second you walked in and of course Bougie AF. And y’all showed UP.

We laughed, we celebrated, we raised money, we took them to church a little bit, and most importantly, we reminded everybody what queer power looks like when community comes together with purpose.

Now go watch the recap and tell me: what was your favorite moment?

And if you loved what we created, help us keep funding the work that makes moments like this matter long after brunch is over.

What an honor to be awarded the Bayard Rustin Civil Rights Award by the Houston LGBTQ+ Political Caucus, @thecaucus, who, for nearly five decades, has stood as an immovable pillar of courage not just in Harris County, but across the entire state of Texas and the US South.

History books have often tried to push Bayard to the footnotes, but we know he was the master strategist, the visionary organizer, and the logistical genius behind the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.

When I walk onto the floor of the Texas House of Representatives representing District 100 and the 31 million Texans in this state, I carry Bayard’s spirit with me.

He understood that we must operate as an uncompromising, multi-racial, working-class coalition to win the people’s fight. This November, we cannot afford the luxury of indifference to anyone’s struggle. We rise together, or we do not rise at all.

To the Caucus, I am deeply humbled and profoundly honored, thank you.

Let’s continue the work, folks.
