Donate and support LGBTQIA+ media while you still can

Queer media is under threat from all sides – don’t let them set the record straight

As the world becomes increasingly intolerant, businesses are turning their backs on our community — withholding vital financial support. Mainstream media panders to the haters by running transphobic and homophobic stories while exploiting us for clickbait.

Meanwhile, US-based tech corporations instruct their algorithms to censor LGBTQIA+ content, impacting our community’s ability to communicate.

LGBTQIA+ media has been hit doubly hard. As AI-generated slop is served up instead of credible journalism, web traffic to all news sites, from the New York Times to the Star Observer, is plummeting globally.
