Call me October is LGBTQ plus history month and many are taking the time to remember and teach others about the struggles and evolution of the LGBTQ plus community LGBTQ plus history month is Is in place to let people know that you are accepted and to give you a little bit about the history of how things have evolved just like with in Indigenous people We were two-spirited in the indigenous people and they were praised and put on a higher pedestal After the overturning of Roe v. Wade Supreme Court Justice Clarice Thomas also noted the court should review Obergefell v. Hodges The case that legalized same-sex marriage overturning Obergefell would make same-sex marriage illegal in over 25 states LGBTQ plus history month is important in our history.
