Educating for Equality
The purpose of the LGBTQ Center Safe Zone program is to create a network of allies for individuals who may be marginalized on the basis of their sexual orientation, gender identity, and/or gender expression. All UNC-Chapel Hill faculty, staff, and students are eligible to become Safe Zone trainees. Training sessions take place several times a semester, and customized Safe Zone trainings can be scheduled with the LGBTQ Center on behalf of any department, group, or organization.

“As an American I inherit the magnificent tradition of an endless march toward freedom and toward the dignity of all mankind.” - The Reverend Dr. Pauli Murray Juneteenth honors June 19, 1865, when enslaved people in Galveston, Texas learned that they were legally free nearly two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. Black Trans queer trailblazer Rev. Dr. Pauli Murray said it best – freedom is an American tradition, and dignity for all is the connective tissue we must uphold. This Juneteenth, celebrate what that means to you. Happy Juneteenth! ❤💛💚
