Stop the Attacks on Queen and Trans Rights rally
Friday, July 14, 2023, The Commons, 425 Portland Ave in downtown Minneapolis
Join Taking Back Pride Coalition to protest ongoing attacks made by SCOTUS on LGBTQ+, Black and Brown, and working class people on Friday, July 14th at 4pm at The Commons park in downtown Minneapolis
We know that the recent ruling in favor or 303 Creative LLC to discriminate against LGBTQ+ people is just the beginning. Besides hurting Queer people, it provides legal precedent for discrimination against Black and Brown people, as well as many other groups. Now is not the time to be neutral! Roe was just the beginning of this courts attacks; cases like Obergefell and Loving, that established legally recognized Gay and Interracial marriage respectively, and Lawrence, that recognized sodomy laws as unconstitutional, will be on the chopping block. If we want to keep what few rights we have today, we have to be willing to take to the streets! We won’t go back in the closet, and we won’t go back to Jim Crow!
Sponsorred by Taking Back Pride Coalition, MN Abortion Rights Committee, Twin Cities Justice 4 Jamar, Minneapolis Community for Police Accountability Commission, Anti-War Committee, Women Against Military Madness and Freedom Road Socialist Organization-Twin Cities.
