At Afro Pride Federation, we carry this message forward by ensuring that the voices of the Black and Indigenous LGBTQ+ community are heard and supported. Hope is an active commitment to one another, and silence is not an option when it comes to our health and our rights.
We invite you to turn hope into action. Join our community, connect with supportive colleagues, and get involved with our team for the upcoming Florida AIDS Walk. Together, we can ensure that our progress and our wellness continue to move forward.

In our community, we are often taught that resilience means staying silent. We wear "Pride" like a shield, but sometimes that shield becomes a barrier to the support we actually need.
How to Spot the "Pride Mask":
• Caretaker Fatigue: You are always the shoulder for everyone else to lean on, but you never allow yourself to be the one who leans. You’re pouring from an empty cup.
• Silent Struggling: When things get heavy, you disappear. You withdraw from the people who love you because you don’t want to be seen as "weak" or a "burden."
• The Perfectionist: You feel a constant, exhausting pressure to maintain a flawless image to protect yourself from judgment. If it’s not perfect, you feel like you’ve failed.
• Avoidance: You use "the hustle" or constant busyness as a way to outrun your emotional pain. If you stop moving, you’re afraid you’ll have to feel.
Break the cycle. Your resilience shouldn't have to be lonely.
The best way to unmask and heal is through community. Join us at Afro Pride Federation to build a network of supportive colleagues and friends who truly get it.
Ready to take the first step? Join our team for the upcoming AIDS Walk! It’s more than just a walk, it’s a chance to build your own strength while standing in solidarity with your community.

Everything we do is rooted in belief… belief in our people, our culture, and our collective power.
Afro Pride exists to create spaces where Black and Afrocentric LGBTQ+ communities can experience care, connection, and celebration without compromise. This work is intentional. It’s community-led. And it continues because our wellness, joy, and visibility matter.
By us. For us. With us.

As we step into 2026, we’re moving forward with intention, care, and community at the center.

Afro Pride remains committed to fostering the mental, social, and economic wellness of Black and Afrocentric LGBTQ+ communities and those who love and support them throughout South Florida.

With the addition of APU Health (linked below), our wellness and health navigation arm, we’re expanding access to mental health support, HIV prevention, and culturally informed care for the community.

Here’s to a new year rooted in healing, growth, and collective power.
Happy New Year from Afro Pride and APU Health.

Health equity should be a standard, not a holiday wish. PrEP works with over 99 percent effectiveness, yet access remains unequal in Black LGBTQ+ communities. This season, we are focusing on dismantling the barriers of stigma and cost that keep our community from the care they deserve. We refuse to let our community members be left behind while others thrive. Ensure your health is protected by getting the facts and the support you need. Visit the link in our bio to sign up for our email list and discover how you can access inclusive healthcare services. Let us protect our joy by protecting our health.

Enjoy this holiday! We wish you joy and laughter.

The AIDS Walk may not be until March, but the work to protect our community happens every day. We have officially kicked off our holiday fundraising efforts to ensure we hit our goals long before we lace up our walking shoes. Your early support allows us to fund critical outreach, PrEP education, and inclusive healthcare services throughout the winter season. Start your holiday giving by supporting our team at the link in our bio.

The spaces that nurture Black LGBTQ+ joy and safety are facing an unprecedented attack across the country. Swipe through this carousel to see why Black Prides need you now more than ever.
Political attacks stripping resources and cutting diversity programs are making our communities feel invisible. But Black Prides are more than just events. They are vital safe spaces, cultural hubs, and essential foundations for leadership and connection. They keep our community alive.
The reality is stark: rising costs and shrinking resources mean many Black Prides may not survive 2026 without immediate help.
We are fighting back. The Center for Black Equity and South Florida Black Pride are launching the Save Black Prides Campaign—a nationwide movement to keep our Prides funded, thriving, and protected.
Your support is critical to this movement. Click the link in our bio to stand with us and learn how you can help protect our community's future.

Comment below and share your thoughts on how someone can be a good ally to members of the LGBTQ+ community.
Allyship is more than a label; it is a consistent practice of listening, learning, and taking action. True support involves educating yourself on the unique challenges faced by the community—especially those at the intersection of Black and LGBTQ+ identities—without placing the burden of education on them. It means using your voice to challenge misinformation, respecting names and pronouns, and showing up for Black-led organizations and spaces.
We want to hear from our community and our allies alike. What does meaningful solidarity look like in your workplace, your family, or your daily life? Share your perspective so we can all move toward a more inclusive and equitable future.
