Trump and Allies Seek to Dismantle All Diversity Programs, Project 2025 is the Blueprint for Its ImplementationBy: Nicole Lashomb*/Editor-in-Chief—Come 2025, pride month and what it represents to so many of us could come to a screeching halt as queer rights and liberation will be stripped from millions of LGBTQI+ Americans.
That is, if Trump somehow gains access to the nation’s highest office again. Since on the campaign trail earlier this year, the now twice impeached, 34 time-convicted felon has vowed to continue to roll back the LGBTQI+ community’s protections and those of most marginalized groups of people residing within the walls of the United States.
Some Trump proponents argue that “it’s just hyperbole.” But, if there is anything that history has taught us is that it is destined to repeat itself unless meaningful progress is made.
While progress has taken place by the battles and sacrifices of many in the past, our government and the supposed liberties many tout as American values are shamefully fragile.
