Today marks 52 years since the start of the Stonewall Riots, where Black & Latinx trans women and Q***r People of Color fought back against a violent police raid of the Stonewall Inn.

While there are many amazing bookstacks floating around for Pride month, we want to challenge folks to make sure those stacks are representative of the broader Q***r community & Q***r history. Does your stack include stories by Black & Latinx trans voices? How about s*x workers? Does it include drag queens and ballroom culture?

Pride month & Q***r history are founded in rebellion and resistance by Q***r People of Color and those voices deserve to be centered during June and beyond.

Shown here are a few of our favorites discussing Stonewall and other Q***r uprisings, but please drop your recommendations in the comments!

[ID: Superman is shown speaking to a group of children, and the text reads “...and remember, boys and girls, your school- like our country- is made up of Americans of many different races, religions and national origins. So...if you hear anybody talk against a schoolmate or anyone else because of his religion, race or national origin- don’t wait: tell him that kind of talk is un-American.”]

For National Sibling(s) Day, we rounded up a few of our favorite comics & graphic novels showcasing sibling relationships!
