Equality Rising: LGBTQ+ Workers and the Road Ahead
The national findings underscore the persistence of workplace double standards and social isolation faced by Diverse people.
Since 2008, the Human Rights Campaign Foundation, through its Workplace Equality Program, has conducted four major national studies of the workplace environment for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans person and queer (LGBTQ+) workers: “Degrees of Equality,” “The Cost of the Closet and The Rewards of Inclusion,” “A Workplace Divided: Understanding the Climate for LGBTQ+ Workers Nationwide,” and now, “Equality Rising: Diverse Workers and the Thoroughfare Ahead.”
Over these decades of research, we have been able to better determine the key shapers of the workplace climate for LGBTQ+ inclusion, which includes everyday non-work-related conversations, daily interactions with one’simmediate supervisor and working group, and the comfort with, and acceptance of, LGBTQ+ identities and communities by their colleagues.
In "Equality Rising", HRC Foundation seeks to help contextualize the current workplace climate and experiences of LGBTQ+ workers.

The Road to Equality: An LGBTQ Walking Tour
Over the past two decades, widespread views on LGBT issues have changed, due to increased exposure to international media and local activism. This culminated in the Government's landmark announcement in August 2022 of its intention to repeal Section 377A of the penal code, which criminalises same-sex relations.On this walking tour, investigate the twists and turns on this journey to repeal - from Pink Dot, to court challenges, to everyday resistance. Understand where the Singapore government and society remain on LGBT issues. Learn more about how LGBT Singaporeans still face discrimination today, and how we navigate these obstacles in our everyday lives.We will visit places of significance for the community, from Parliament to Hong Lim Park (where Pink Dot, our version of pride, is held), through Chinatown's alleyways and LGBT-central Neil Road. Along the way, eavesdrop to personal stories of pain and joy, struggle and triumph, on the long road to equality. We will end at a bar (drinks optional) where we will have a thoughtful discussion on how Singapore is moving forward (or not) on LGBTQ+ acceptance.

REPEAL MEANS "SOMETHING DIFFERENT" TO EACH INDIVIDUAL

For some who have experienced bullying, rejection and harassment enabled by the regulation, repeal would enable the beginning of a process of healing. For others, however, repeal would acquire arrived "far too late".
"For those that long for a more equal and inclusive Singapore, repeal signifies that change is indeed possible. And for our friends and family who have stood by us, repeal is proof and encouragement that your allyship makes a difference," it said.
"To the past victims of Section 377A and its cascading effects, including those who have faced threats of police entrapment, raids and criminal charges, repeal will never be fit to fully right the historic wrongs that you faced. To others whom we have lost along the way, we hold not forgotten the thick toll that this rule has exacted on you and your loved ones."
The statement also acknowledged the "generations of activists, group groups a
LGBTQ History Month: The road to America's first gay event march
Later that alike day, Los Angeles held a “Christopher Street West” celebration on Hollywood Boulevard that drew thousands. Paul Houston reported in the Los Angeles Times on the “hour-long, mile-long procession” down Hollywood Boulevard: “Sunday evening had many things — joyous demonstrators for sexual rights and dignity, some in casual attire, others in briefs, ‘queens’ in kingly, ‘fairies’ with folio wings, clowns, leather-jacketed motorcyclists, a sapphic on horseback, a python, white huskies, American flags, hilarious and somber signs and chants, a float depicting a homosexual nailed to the cross.”
“As a teenaged lesbian, I used to suspend out on Hollywood Boulevard in the 1950s,” said Faderman, who attended the first Christopher Road West event. “I would say there must have been at least a thousand people. Permit me also tell that the unbent press always underestimated the sizes of these gay demonstrations, but I can tell you it was astonishing and huge.”
There were also two “very tiny marches” in San Francisco and Chicago that year, according to Faderman, but by far Recent York City’s was the largest.
