Welcome to Pride Month at Accidental Tomatoes!

We’re always looking for opportunities to highlight the voices and work of our LGBTQ+ siblings and express our solidarity with folks from marginalized communities. Since our inception in October 2019, we’ve interviewed a number of LGBTQ+ podcast guests, and our writing team has published several pieces about justice, liberation, and allyship.

So to kick off our 2022 Pride Month celebration, we wanted to point you to the podcast episodes that have featured LGBTQ+ folks and blog posts on topics related to our staunch support of the LGBTQ+ community. For the most part, these are conversations not directly related to gender and/or sexuality, but on the vital everyday, real-world work our LGBTQ+ friends and neighbors are doing to make life better for everyone.
