Lizzo delivered a powerful speech at OUTLOUD's LGBTQIA+ Pride festival in West Hollywood, emphasizing the importance of supporting Black trans women. She highlighted the ongoing struggles within the community, stating that without their fight, Pride celebrations would not be possible. Lizzo's speech also addressed the political climate, particularly criticizing policies from the Trump administration that seek to erase trans identities from public records. Her performance included a rendition of 'Over the Rainbow,' reinforcing her message of hope and unity within the LGBTQIA+ community.
This is dedicated to you and more importantly the Black trans women who, without their fight, we would not be able to celebrate today.
In honor of that fight we have to continue to take a stand against that very same system that threatens our rights to bodily autonomy and liberation. We ain't free till we all free.
