In this Pride Month episode, Ashley breaks down what it means to raise intentional LGBTQIA+ allies in a progressive, BIPOC-centered homeschool. From reading queer-affirming picture books with 4-year-old Langston to deep accountability convos with 12-year-old Parker, this episode is all about centering queer joy, amplifying marginalized voices, and raising kids who show up with love and courage — not just in June, but always.
✨ Glitter, books, and justice — this is how we raise the revolution. Happy Pride, fam!
