Today is the 55th anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising, a pivotal moment in LGBTQ history. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ We are grateful for those that resisted police attacks on June 28, 1969 led by queer and trans people of color. Today, we continue the fight to advance LGBTQ rights.

We’ve joined together with OUTpatients, the UK's LGBTQ+ cancer charity, to help make screening more inclusive and accessible to everyone who is eligible. breastcancernow.org/sites/default/…

“It’s very important for anyone in my community to be comfortable with their physician … My doctor is not gay, but he’s understanding of John’s and my relationship. He understands that we’re a team … that we are making this decision as a family.” aacr.org/blog/2024/06/2…
