2026 marks 100 years of celebrating Black History Month! ❤️🖤💚 This February, we at Prism want to encourage folx to move thoughtfully and with intention through Black History Month.

We know celebrating and honoring Black history shouldn't be limited to one month and neither should the learning and unlearning that is imperative to anti-racism work. We hope this month can be the seed that roots us deeper as a community in our commitment to supporting and celebrating our Black q***r history and working towards the liberation of all.

This Black History Month, we encourage you to:
💜 Read Black, q***r authors
🩷 Listen to Black community members
🩵 Deepen your knowledge of Black history
💚 Challenge racism and learn how to deepen your anti-racism with trainings like A Long Talk
💛 Pay Black creators
🧡 Buy Black-owned
🤎 Engage in advocacy and movements that support and prioritize BIPOC community members

Prism will be closed Monday, 1/19 in observation of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

As we reflect on the lives of those who have fought so passionately for the rights of all, we at Prism hope to take stock of how we can grow and deepen our devotion to the fight for justice.

For decades Black and brown activists and our BIPOC trans community members are the ones leading the charge for change. As we enter an era in need of deep reformation and commitment to justice we at Prism center the voices of those most often silenced. We know that the civil liberties we have gained are due to the work of people like Martin Luther King Jr, James Baldwin, Marsha P. Johnson, Audre Lorde, Stormé DeLarverie, Bayard Rustin, Ernestine Eckstein, Barbara Jordan, Cecilia Gentili, and many other who fought, hurt, and died in the pursuit of justice. May their memories be a blessing.

Today especially, we reground ourselves and our community that none of us are free, until all of us are free.
