In honor of Pride Month, Councilwoman
Vanessa Gibson recently recognized
five LGBTQIA+ leaders in the
Bronx that have fought for equity and
inclusion in government, entertainment
and business.
On June 16, the lawmaker was
joined by Essen Health Care, Black
Trans Nation, Amida Care, Destination
Tomorrow and other community
organizations for the event at SUYO
Gastrofusion.
Two years ago, Gibson hosted this
Pride event in July at the Bronx Museum
of the Arts, then COVID-19
halted all Pride month celebrations in
2020. Gibson and guest speakers, District
Attorney Darcel Clark and Public
Advocate Jumaane Williams spoke
about the wage disparities for the LGBTQIA+
community and the need to
ensure the LGBTQ+ community receives
equitable support and resources
to recover from the pandemic.
Award Honorees: Elisa Crespo,
new executive director of New Pride
Agenda; Antonino Vilchis Garcia,
owner of Mexicocina; Fohat Aird-
Bombo; CEO of MyFade.com, a startup
platform for barbers and Egyptt La-
Beija, drag performer and entertainer.
