The Aces close out Pride Month on the Going There podcast by joining host Dr. Mike in a discussion about building community to battle anti-LGBTQ+ bias and discrimination. The indie pop quartet -- Cristal and Alisa Ramirez, Katie Henderson, and McKenna Petty -- talk about their own experiences coming out as gay in an industry that met them with powerful and damaging bias and discrimination.They explain how they were able to build a supportive and accepting community so that they could lead authentic, openly gay lives. As artists and advocates, they strive to build on existing progress in making the world a safer and more accepting place for members of the LGBTQ+ community -- a world where we celebrate diversity rather than attempt to suppress it..
