Minnesota LGBTQ+ Leaders Correct Lavender Magazine's Farewell Article on State's LGBTQ+ Rights Record

Summary

A coalition of Minnesota-based LGBTQ+ organizations and political leaders publishes a joint letter correcting what they describe as ahistorical statements made in Lavender magazine's farewell article. While thanking contributors for their work over 31 years, the letter disputes the magazine's characterization of LGBTQ+ rights progress in Minnesota, arguing that the farewell post downplayed or misrepresented key victories and ongoing struggles. The response aims to set the record straight on the actual state of LGBTQ+ rights in the state.

It wouldn't be Pride month without a little community drama.
We thank those contributors who have done good work through Lavender, but we would be doing our communities a disservice if we didn't address their ahistorical statements.
Let us correct the record.
