QUEERBOMB MANIFESTO
Queerbomb is a family of LGBTQIA+ individuals gathering to support our unique and collective pride. Our purpose is to provide a space to celebrate each and every member of our community and encourage all to embrace the manifold ways we contribute to building a beautiful and diverse society. We look to the traditions of our queer radical past, embodied in the struggles of our ongoing fight for equal justice and the right to express ourselves in whatever way we see fit.
Each June, the month of Stonewall, we stand forth to embrace our sexuality, bodies, personalities, art, music, literature and politics, while recapturing Pride from corporate sponsorship. We are reclaiming the radical, carnal, and transgressive lineage of our ever- changing community to capture a meaning of pride that refuses to put rules on what you can and can’t be proud of.
Queerbomb does not apologize. Queerbomb does not make excuses. Queerbomb is free for all. Queerbomb stands proud, and so should you.
