Central Florida LGBTQ+ Organizations Host Community Conversation on Public Safety
“Hate crimes and racial inequality are unfortunate realities that must be confronted. The LGBTQ+ community, particularly people of color, are disproportionately affected by violence and discrimination due to their identity.
