Pride Month: In Our Own Words

In celebration of Pride Month, the LGBTQIA+ group at Deutsch LA called 'The Alphabet People' launched a digital alphabet book today that defines terms often used when talking about the LGBTQIA+ community. The book titled, 'In Our Own Words' serves as an educational guide, designed to enlighten those in media, education, politics and beyond who want to understand the meaning of certain terms used within the community. Historically, queer people have not had the opportunity to influence how they are represented in media. 'In Our Own Words' aims to correct this shortcoming in the media landscape by providing a handy list of terms to keep in mind when considering queer themes, talent and culture in upcoming projects and campaigns.
