Earlier today, the community came out to beautiful downtown Fairhope to express their #Pride and support for the LGBTQ community in Fairhope through sidewalk chalk.

So much color! 🏳️‍🌈 We are getting closer and closer to completion! Our amazing artists worked hard this weekend despite the intense sun and heat. They will be back this weekend to complete it with wording and other small details. (at B-Bob's) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBvNoZkDBn_/?igshid=1nj87hfqdeivg

More progress! It’s taking a little longer than expected to finish this mural due to many factors, but we hope to finish by next Sunday! (at B-Bob's) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBdjSJ9jOgc/?igshid=ptx5m4b9gkv5

Today, June 1st, marks the beginning of National Pride Month, and is celebrated each year in the month of June across the nation by the LGBTQ+ community and our many allies. Due to COVID-19, many pride celebrations have been cancelled, postponed, or modified. Nonetheless, National Pride Month is never cancelled, and so we have several contests and virtual events scheduled this month. Please visit our Facebook Page and website for more details. Additionally, we want to highlight the importance of intersectionality and raise awareness and encourage our community to also participate in the renewed movement towards racial justice. #pride #blacklivesmatter https://www.instagram.com/p/CA5r8gEDlOY/?igshid=upperhvi0cax

Thank you everyone who voted in the March 3rd Alabama Primary and submitted their "I voted" picture for this collage! Today, we are encouraging all Alabamians to apply for their absentee ballot for the Tuesday, July 14th Primary Runoff Election. Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, the state of Alabama is letting anyone vote absentee by checking the "I have a physical illness or infirmity which prevents my attendance at the polls" box on the application, unless another box applies more to your situation. https://www.instagram.com/p/B-717DvjHQo/?igshid=ywf87dkczsd

As people across the world are being asked to self isolate and socially distance themselves, we feel it is more important than ever to be visible and share what it means to be visible online for those who can’t be. Today, March 31st, we are asking you to help us inspire others and use the attached graphic, a selfie or short video, the hashtag #2bvisible, and your own story to build upon the representation and positivity on everyone’s timelines for TDOV. Specifically we are asking for you to: 1. Post this graphic first to catch people's eyes (the goal is to have a sea of #2bvisible tiles!🌊) 2, For your second slide, post a selfie or video stating "My name is X and this is why I'm visible" 3. In the caption, write what being visible means to you 4. Use #2bvisible We believe that together we can create hundreds more affirming posts to comfort and inspire the trans community for TDOV! Now more than ever it is imperative that we support one another and, if possible, be visible for those who can't be ✊ This marketing campaign is brought to you by gc2b, a LGBT owned company that provides high quality chest binders at an affordable price. Please visit them at www.gc2b.co/ In love and solidarity, 💜 The Rainbow Mobile Team 💙 https://www.instagram.com/p/B-ZeykwjQCN/?igshid=ew4pehtnzfd3
